Shuttle (Nate Donmoyer), known to most as the drummer for Passion Pit, delivers one of the best mixes we’ve ever heard in The Orion. He handpicks choice cuts from UK’s garage and funky scene and seamlessly fuses them into one hundred plus minutes of pure bass joy. Keep an eye on Shuttle’s productions and mixes – this is only a glimpse of the what’s to come.
Radio 1’s Essential Mix returns to the now legendary Warehouse Project in Manchester for an exclusive back to back set from Ed Banger’s DJ Mehdi & Busy P, recorded live at the Chibuku party.
Mishka delivers another heavy hitter with Rusko banging out the twelfth installment of the Keep Watch series. Keep a look out for a new spin on Kid Sister’s “Pro Nails”, a wobble tossed Dire Straights dub, and fresh re-edits from his current North American tour. You can catch him in New York October 10th, for the Hard NYC Festival with Crookers and Major Lazer.
It’s no surprise that Mishka NYC, the Brooklyn-based fashion label, enlisted Major Lazer for their tenth volume Keep Watch mixtape series. The brand’s identity is strongly influenced by the freshest rhythms around, and the Diplo/Switch collaboration is no exception. Sure we’ve raved about these guys plenty but this mix delivers a few unheard tracks and b-sides. You’ll recognize a few cuts from their most recent Essential Mix, and we also confirm that Switch has quite the thing for Ace of Base. Be sure to listen out for some M.I.A. action as well.
Two phenomenal & unique back to back performances celebrating 10 years of the Exit Festival, featuring four of the world’s biggest DJs.

Beck gives us his weekly DJ jam, “autopilot glaciers defunct, sunken monoliths and icicle malls, black bears, lynxes, fossilized gigolos wandering from the Iron Gate to the Hinterland, vegetable joy, mineral time, twisted roots, trunks, rock formations and flora, Moravian Alps in purplish night,tank top partisans of Carpathian summer….”
