Curator Kitty: «El propósito de mi set era rendir homenaje a la música House de una forma que resonara conmigo, mezclando Deep House y UK Garage. La música House me habla histórica y culturalmente; tiene profundas raíces en una época en la que la sociedad se estaba transformando, reflejando un deseo de individualidad y un sentido de comunidad que buscaba la curación a través de la música. La música House encarna el espíritu, el amor y la unión. Esta mezcla define el House para mí porque he seleccionado temas que me inspiraron cuando estaba aprendiendo a mezclar. Me envolvió con su aceptación, sus bellas vibraciones y su energía de amor al alma. Para mí, la música House es corazón, y por eso me gusta más el Deep House: tiene una cadencia más profunda, con un ritmo que parece orgánico y tribal. Las voces en la música House son especialmente importantes para mí por sus poderosos mensajes.»

follidh: «La música House es más que un género: es un latido, un pulso que une a la gente más allá de las fronteras. «Frequency Fusion» se sumerge en la esencia del house tal y como yo la siento: una energía poderosa y unificadora que te arrastra a su ritmo y no te suelta. Esta mezcla tiene que ver con ese ritmo trascendente en el que las líneas de bajo profundas y las melodías edificantes se sincronizan a la perfección con los latidos del corazón, creando una experiencia electrizante y conmovedora. Para mí, la música house es un santuario, un lugar donde encontrar la libertad, sentir el ambiente y dejar ir todo lo que no sirve. Cada tema de esta colección habla de una faceta diferente de la cultura house, desde sus raíces underground hasta su evolución expansiva, que mezcla géneros. Esto no es sólo una colección de canciones; es una historia, un viaje a través del sonido que celebra lo que es el house: comunidad, groove y alegría pura y sin filtros.»

Curator Kitty: «The purpose of my set was to honor House music in a way that resonates with me, blending Deep House and UK Garage. House music speaks to me historically and culturally; it has deep roots in a time when society was transforming, reflecting a desire for individuality and a sense of community that sought healing through music. House music embodies spirit, love, and togetherness. This mix defines House for me because I selected tracks that inspired me when I was first learning to mix. It enveloped me with its acceptance, beautiful vibes, and soul-loving energy. To me, House music is heart, which is why I love Deep House the most—it has a deeper cadence, with a rhythm that feels organic and tribal. The vocals in House music are especially important to me because of their powerful messages.»

follidh: «House music is more than a genre—it’s a heartbeat, a pulse that brings people together across boundaries. «Frequency Fusion» dives into the essence of house as I feel it: a powerful, unifying energy that pulls you into its groove and doesn’t let go. This mix is all about that transcendent rhythm where deep basslines and uplifting melodies sync perfectly with your heartbeat, creating an experience that’s both electrifying and soulful. For me, house music is a sanctuary—a place to find freedom, feel the vibe, and let go of everything that doesn’t serve. Each track in this set speaks to a different side of house culture, from its underground roots to its expansive, genre-bending evolution. This isn’t just a collection of songs; it’s a story, a journey through sound that celebrates what house is all about: community, groove, and pure, unfiltered joy.»

«Bitácora del Oficial de Inteligencia, Fecha Estelar 6969: Fuimos recibidos en una sala cavernosa después de que una fuerte tormenta obligara a nuestro transbordador a aterrizar en un planeta desconocido de clase H. Los habitantes eran vibrantes, extraños, con la piel como telas de gasa centelleando en el tenue resplandor carmesí. Susurraban, se tocaban, se besaban y, de vez en cuando, se levantaban para bailar y buscar encuentros sin palabras en la pista. Nosotros también nos dejamos llevar, curiosos y encaprichados por nuestros nuevos compañeros de ritmo. Las horas pasaban tan rápido como la lluvia que caía silenciosamente. Con el amanecer, el ritmo aumentó. Fue entonces cuando nos dimos cuenta de que esto era sólo un preludio, la fusión de los antes y los después; la verdadera fiesta acababa de empezar.»

«Intelligence Officer’s Log, Stardate 6969: We were welcomed into a cavernous hall after a heavy storm forced our shuttle down on an unknown H-class planet. The inhabitants were vibrant, queer, skin like gossamer fabrics scintillating in the dim crimson glow. They whispered, touched, kissed, occasionally rising to dance and find wordless encounters on the dancefloor. We too fell into the groove; curious about, infatuated by, our newfound comrades in rhythm. Hours passed as quickly as the rain silently poured outside. With the break of day through the clouds, the beat swelled. It was then we realized this was only a prelude, the merging of afters and befores; the real party was just beginning.»

#089 My Inner House

  • octubre 29, 2024 19:00

««Cuando pienso en el significado de «hogar», lo imagino como mi santuario, un espacio lleno de afecto, compasión, aceptación y cuidado. Es el lugar que acoge mi cuerpo y mi esencia tal como son, permitiéndome expandirme y crecer creativamente, sin límites. Es donde puedo expresar las muchas voces que hay dentro de mí, cada una de las cuales suena diferente según mi estado de ánimo.
Cuando pienso en «música», la veo como una herramienta de exploración personal que comparto con el resto del mundo. Es fluida, dinámica, liberadora y fortalecedora. A través de ella, reconozco los tonos de las realidades que me rodean, así como los que me definen. La música siempre está evolucionando, me ayuda a comprender mis orígenes y procesos de transformación. Me permite crear experiencias compartidas que conmueven a la gente y refuerzan los lazos que me rodean.
Cuando toco «House» estoy expresando todos los aspectos de mi experiencia humana: la diversidad, las diferencias, la alegría, la lucha, el caos, la incertidumbre, la unidad y la paz. Es un proceso en el que coexisten mi vulnerabilidad y mi individualidad. La pista de baile se convierte en un santuario, donde puedo perderme en la música pero también encontrarme reflejado en las vidas de los demás.
Este set es un escaparate de ritmos, transiciones y estilos inesperados y sorprendentes. Incluye creaciones de amigos cercanos y productores que comparten la misma visión que yo.»

«»When I think about the meaning of «home,» I picture it as my sanctuary—a space filled with affection, compassion, acceptance, and care. It’s the place that embraces both my body and my essence just as they are, allowing me to expand and grow creatively, without limits. It’s where I can express the many voices within me, each sounding different depending on my mood.
When I think of «music,» I see it as a tool for personal exploration that I share with the rest of the world. It’s fluid, dynamic, freeing, and empowering. Through it, I recognize the tones of the realities around me, as well as the ones that define me. Music is always evolving, helping me understand my origins and processes of transformation. It allows me to craft shared experiences that move people and strengthen the bonds around me.
When I play «house» I am expressing all aspects of my human experience— the diversity, the differences, joy, the struggle, the chaos, uncertainty, unity and peace. It’s a process in which my vulnerability and individuality are co existing. The dance floor becomes a sanctuary, where I can lose myself in the music but also find myself reflected in others’ lives.
This set is a showcase of unexpected, surprising beats, transitions, and styles. It includes creations from close friends and producers who share the same vision as I do.»»

#088 Can You Really Dance To My Beat?

  • octubre 22, 2024 19:00

««Can You Really Dance to My Beat?» es una referencia a una de mis frases favoritas del tema My Beat de Blaze. La letra cuenta una historia sobre los orígenes, la ascendencia y la importancia de la música para los grupos marginados. Como persona sensible a los problemas del mundo en que vivimos hoy, estos temas resuenan profundamente en mí. Mientras exploraba los planos de la música electrónica moderna, me sentí atraído por los ritmos de la música tribal y sus múltiples capas. Como género enraizado en las influencias de los sonidos africanos, esta selección es una invitación a conectar con nuestro yo interior, nuestros instintos, y a liberar nuestras frustraciones con las injusticias del mundo a través de la danza. Animo a les oyentes a que se pongan los auriculares y me dejen guiarles en este viaje.»

««Can You Really Dance to My Beat?» is a reference to one of my favorite lines from the track My Beat by Blaze. The lyrics tell a story about origins, ancestry, and the importance of music to marginalized groups. As someone who is sensitive to the problems of the world we live in today, these themes resonate deeply with me. While exploring the blueprints of modern electronic music, I found myself drawn to the rhythms of Tribal Music and its many layers. As a genre rooted in the influences of African sounds, this selection is an invitation to connect with our inner selves, our instincts, and to release our frustrations with the world’s injustices through dance. I encourage listeners to put on their headphones and let me be their guide on this journey.»

#087 Love, Grief & Sounds for Stomping

  • octubre 15, 2024 19:00

«Esta mezcla pretende ser una gestalt de sonidos tomados del techno y el electro, con un fondo de bassy house, sobre todo porque me distraigo y no siempre puedo concentrarme, ¡lo que espero que os mantenga interesados! Si bien espero que la mezcla sea capaz de valerse por sí misma y contar su propia historia, te adelanto, a ti – el oyente – que en una nota más personal, dentro de esta mezcla existen pistas con las que he luchado para averiguar cómo mezclar, así como pistas con las que he gritado y llorado, algunas en pistas de baile y otras en privado. Mi objetivo es que el oyente deje espacio para el sonido, a veces enfrentado, de melodías exuberantes y arrebatos ásperos. Espero que esta mezcla te encuentre donde estás, ayude a tu cuerpo a mantener el compás y te ayude a superar cualquier cosa alta, baja o tercera secreta por la que estés pasando en este momento de la historia.»

«This mix is intended to be a swirling gestalt of sounds borrowed from techno and electro, set to a pumping bassy house backdrop–mostly because I get distracted and can’t always focus; which hopefully will keep you interested! While I hope the mix is able to stand alone and tell its own story, I will preface, to you–the listener–that on a more personal note, within this mix exist tracks that I have fought with to figure out how to mix as well as tracks that I have screamed and cried to, some on dancefloors and some in private. My goal is for the listener to make space for the, at times, battling sound of lush melodies and harsh outbursts. It’s my hope that this mix is able to find you where you’re at, can help your body keep time, and help you work through whatever high, low, or secret third thing that you’re going through at this moment in time and history.»

#086 Emotion, Energy and Empowerment

  • octubre 8, 2024 19:00

«Este set es una selección de temas que realmente me han estado resonando últimamente, incluyendo algunos vinilos que aprecio y que no he tocado tan a menudo como debería. Quería crear una mezcla con emociones profundas e introspección, empezando con un poco de house italiano atmosférico y flotando brevemente hacia el house progresivo, antes de volverse más emotivo y atrevido. Al final, el conjunto estaba muy arraigado en los 90, con algunos temas que aportaban modernidad, aunque seguían siendo nostálgicos y descarados. Las voces de los temas se centran en los sentimientos, las necesidades y la autodeterminación, por eso también quise orientar la mezcla hacia el empoderamiento. Otra forma en la que quería que me empoderara a mí y a otras FLINTA es incluyendo a increíbles vocalistas y productoras femeninas, como Crystal Waters, Kim English, Dina Carroll, Vicky Martin y Ladymonix. Las voces son vitales para la cultura, ¡y espero que todas las colaboradoras de FLINTA obtengan el reconocimiento que merecen en esta escena!
La música house es tan poderosa porque puede evocar una amplia gama de emociones en todo el mundo, conmovernos de diferentes maneras y darnos espacio para expresarnos y conectar con nuestros sentimientos. Puede ser introspectiva, romántica, atrevida, sexy, edificante y mucho más. Esta mezcla, aunque sólo encarna partes del espectro emocional de la música house, es un reflejo de temas con los que he conectado, que me dan fuerza y, por supuesto, ¡me hacen bailar!»

«This set is a selection of tracks that have really been resonating with me lately, including some vinyl that I cherish and haven’t played out as often as I should. I wanted to create a mix with deep emotions and introspection, starting with some atmospheric Italian house and floating briefly toward progressive house, before getting more emotive and bold. The set ended up being quite deeply rooted in the 90s, with a few tracks bringing in modernity, though still nostalgic and cheeky. The vocals from the tracks focus on feelings, needs, and self-determination, which is why I also wanted to steer the mix toward empowerment. Another way I wanted to make it empowering for myself and other FLINTA is by including incredible femme vocalists and producers, such as Crystal Waters, Kim English, Dina Carroll, Vicky Martin, and Ladymonix. Vocals are vital to the culture, and I hope all FLINTA contributors get the recognition they deserve in this scene!
House music is so powerful because it can evoke such a wide range of emotions in everyone, moving us in different ways and giving us space to express ourselves and connect with our feelings. It can be introspective, romantic, bold, sexy, uplifting and more.This mix, while just embodying parts of house music’s emotional spectrum, is a reflection of tracks that I’ve connected with, that give me strength, and of course, make me dance!»

#085 My House Journey

  • octubre 1, 2024 19:00

«Esta mezcla es una gran representación de cómo ha evolucionado mi sonido como DJ de house a lo largo de los años, y qué sonidos guardo con cariño en mi corazón. Desde el house soulful de la vieja escuela hasta el garage polvoriento, pasando por el electro, el deep house moderno, el minimal house y el sonido rave resurgido de los 90; este set es un gran testimonio de mi inquebrantable devoción por el groove.»

«This mix is a great representation of how has my sound evolved as house DJ throughout the years, and which sounds i hold dearly in my heart. Going from old school, soulful house to dusty garage, peaking into electro, modern deep house, minimal house & re-surfaced 90s rave sound; this set is a great testament of my unwavering devotion to the groove.»

#084 Sácate Un Pasito

  • septiembre 24, 2024 19:00

«De repente sola en la casa me veo “sacando unos pasos” al escuchar house, como si el cuerpo se moviera sólo. Después, en la pista de baile veo a mis amistades en la misma; uno haciendo un movimiento diferente con la cabeza, otra concentrada en los pies, otra expresándose con los brazos y manos, otre con los ojitos cerrados sintiendo las melodías, otros besándose en la esquina. Para mí es un sentimiento musical profundo y sensual, que te invita a bailar sin vergüenza, sabiendo que estás en comunidad celebrando la vida a pesar de lo difícil que puede ser.
Esta mezcla define el House para mí porque es una compilación de mis temas favoritos; los siento muy profundamente, no me cansan nunca, me dan ganas de bailar siempre y me dan alegría. Además, son creaciones de productores que admiro muchísimo.»

«Suddenly, alone in the house, I see myself “taking a few steps” while listening to house music, as if my body was moving by itself. Later, on the dance floor I see my friends on the same dance floor; one making a different movement with his head, another concentrating on his feet, another expressing himself with his arms and hands, another with his eyes closed feeling the melodies, others kissing in the corner. For me it is a deep and sensual musical feeling, that invites you to dance without shame, knowing that you are in community celebrating life despite how difficult it can be.
This mix defines House for me because it is a compilation of my favorite tracks; I feel them very deeply, they never tire me, they make me want to dance always and they give me joy. Besides, they are creations of producers that I admire very much.»

#083 Vinyl Only Tour

  • septiembre 17, 2024 19:00

«Mi primer contacto con la música House fue cogiendo y reproduciendo al azar una de las cintas de casete ilegales de mi hermana (¡así compartíamos música en los 90!). Debió de ser alrededor de 1998, cuando yo tenía unos 11 o 12 años. La cinta decía «Daft Punk – Homework» y yo no tenía ni idea de lo que era, pero me impactó al instante. Un par de años más tarde, cuando conseguí mi primer sueldo en mi primer trabajo, me lo gasté en un par de giradiscos y una mesa de mezclas de segunda mano para aprender a pinchar. Los primeros años de la década de 2000 fueron un revival del electro, el electroclash, la idolatría de la EBM y un fetiche por la estética de los 80. Así que eso era lo que yo utilizaba. Así que eso es lo que pinchaba. No mucha música house en realidad… Me hace mucha gracia que hoy en día mis sesiones de DJ estén tan impregnadas de la misma fuerte influencia del Chicago House de los 90 que tenía «Homework», especialmente desde que pasé tantos años sin pinchar nada de música house. Para este mix quise reunir muchos discos house que me encantan en un set Vinyl Only, la mayoría de ellos de mediados de los 90, muchos clásicos, algunos de ellos muy en el paraguas Chicago House, pero también algunos otros que caen en categorías como HI-NRG, Acid, Proto-House, Electro y Techno de los 90. Espero que os guste.»

«My first contact with House music was by randomly grabbing and playing one of my sister’s illegal cassette tapes (that’s how we shared music in the 90’s!). It must have been around 1998, when I was about 11 or 12. The cassette said «Daft Punk – Homework» and I had no idea what that was, but it blew me away instantly. Cut 2 to a couple of years later, when I got my first salary from my first job ever, which I spent on a pair of second-hand turntables and mixer to learn how to dj. The early 2000s were all about electro revival, electroclash, EBM idolatry and a fetish for the 80s aesthetics. So that’s what I used to play. Not much house music really… It’s so funny to me that today my Dj sets are so much infused with that same strong 90’s Chicago House influence that «Homework» had, specially since I spent soooo many years playing no house music at all. For this mix I wanted to put together many house records that I love in a Vinyl Only set, most of them are mid 90s, many classics, some of them very much in the Chicago House umbrella, but also some others falling in categories like HI-NRG, Acid, Proto-House, Electro and 90s Techno. I hope you like it!»

#082 The First Turn of the Spiral

  • septiembre 10, 2024 18:00

«Me he pasado media vida en clubes (y a veces en comunidades, no siempre son sinónimos), escuchando y tocando música house. El house nació en Estados Unidos. Yo también; tenemos más o menos la misma edad. No pertenezco a la generación ni a la comunidad de origen, pero me alegro de formar parte de la continuación. Para esta mezcla, he elegido canciones que me encantan y que muestran los múltiples talentos del género. Algunas son un puente entre la música disco y el futuro, otras se sienten como viejas amigas, otras están hechas por viejas amigas. Espero que encuentres tu próxima canción favorita en este mix o que te recuerde una que hace años que no escuchas y que te encanta.»

«I spent half my life in clubs (and sometimes in community—they’re not always synonymous), listening to and playing house music. House was born in the US. So was I; we’re around the same age. I’m not from the originating generation or community, but I’m glad to be part of the continuation. For this mix, I chose songs I love that showcase the genre’s multi-talents. Some are a bridge between disco and the future, some feel like old friends, others are made by old friends. I hope you find your next favorite song on this mix or are reminded of one you haven’t heard in ages that you love.»
