Tsukasa Ito - Soundfiction

Here’s a your chance to sit back and contemplate over these wonderful tunes Tsukasa Ito offers us in his latest mix for the growing bin.

I have the fondest memories of listening to Tsukasa play at Shelter in 2012. Having not slept for three days in a row before this evening due to an insane jetlag made me embrace his warm and subtle soundscapes even more. If you followed his excellent collection of mixes over the years (great examples here, here, here & here) you know what I mean. If you’re in Tokyo don’t miss one of the monthly nights Tsuakasa is celebrating with Chee and Ginji out in 〒192-0071 Hachiōji-shi at SHELTER

Thank so much Tsukasa. Now here’s Soundfiction

Booty Carrell - Psycholambada

it's been a while...
but now Booty is here to save us with a bag of psychoactive bangers from Romania! Expect excting Protomanele oddities next to turkish folk tales and a chinese love song - gently served by this connaisseur extraordinaire and Hamburg's most amiable DJ. If you missed the "B-Music" boy's previous mixes for Finders Keepers, The Attic or Pingipung, listen to these later. First grab your skirt and dance the lambada with us. And make sure to book your flight to Hamburg for this saturday to dance the Psycholambada!!
cheers, Basso

Alex - There, You Can Have My Youth

A fantastic new guest mix, yes. Sorry for the wait, folks!
Here's a festive trip from Basel's very own Alex aka Plattenalexander. A great mix of pensive pop, deep contemporary jazz, dubby wave and all that.  And a lot of never heard before jams. Thanks a lot for your youth Alex!!

Dubby - Night Mirage

I'm very happy to announce a new guest mix at the bin. A mix made by my friend Dubby from Tokyo, Japan. Dubby is a longtime collector and DJ. Last year he started the ONDAS online shop for undiscovered japanese treasures. Not a completely new thing to master Dubby as he's been the buyer for the legendary Cisco Records for 10 years.
Back to the music. Night Mirage is night music as one would guess. Relaxing yet paralizing. A night drive into the unknown dark. Experimental beauty. Enjoy your trip. THANKS DUBBY!

Bobby Beige - On Ibiza

Here's a mix by my friend Bobby Beige recorded whilst his first residency on Ibiza this autumn. He  usually plays lovely records all summer long in the wonderful Garden in Zadar, Croatia. Ibiza isn't bad either - especially La Escollera where the magic happened that you'e about to hear ;)
Bobby's in the music biz for a long time already. Being part of the Pork collective (he recorded as Bullitnuts, Opik and Momma Gravy) Bobby's playing chilled out music since the mid nineties. Apart from being a supernice guy Bobby got TASTE and knows his shit from Azymuth to Thrill Jockey. I had the pleasure to play some hours of back to back with him this summer and every tune that he dropped was brilliant! Just as this selection. Thanks a lot Bobby!!

The Dream Chimney - Gently Baked

Our gently baked new guest mix comes from the Dream Chimney aka Ryan Chimney known for making beautiful music as the Beat Broker. Coming from California - the mecca of new age - he blesses us with heavenly fumigated electronica!

I'd like to use this post to deeply THANK YOU Ryan for creating one of most wonderful places in the web. Like thousands of others I discovered tons of great tunes and musicians through the TOTD. On top of that I got to know some wonderful people there as well. Long live the Dream Chimney!!

He also does a festival called "The Apple Flower Festival" together with Danish chef Claus Meyer - some of the line up for this year is: Gigi Masin playing live (!!), Phil Mison, Tako & Abel, HubbabubbaKlubb as well as yours truly :)
Not to Forget his label Music For Dreams having released more than 65 albums to date. In his mix for the growing bin Kenneth takes us on a relaxed and classy stroll through some decades of amazing music.
