Their esoteric style of dance music has gained them gigs at some of Europe’s premier club spots such as Renate in Berlin, Stalingrad in Paris, Geneva’s La Graviere and Powerhouse in Moscow in addition to being regular fixtures on the discerning festival circuit. Their monthly show on KMAH Radio is deemed essential and their podcast series is revered world wide for showcasing regular mixes from high caliber and lesser known DJ's.

Clandestino 047 - Craig Bratley

We've been pestering Craig for a mix ever since we started the podcast 3 years ago and we'd abandoned all hope of getting something from him so imagine our surprise when we awoke one morning to find this sitting pretty in our inbox. The cynical amongst us would say he's got a party to promote and you'd be right but hey, we'll take it. Craig's currently riding high on the success of his debut album on Tsuba 'Buy The Ticket Take The Ride' and his own Magic Feel stable is back after a short hiatus ...

Clandestino 046 - Cave Paintings

Heavy afro-tinged sounds this week from Leeds-based leftfield party crew Cave Paintings. Taking us on a journey through psychedelic tribal disco that doesn't sound out of place in a steamy rain forest or on desert plains, their unique style has led them to curate the Dogon Village area at Festival No.6; where the thick tangled woods and trippy jungle sounds add to the ethereal atmosphere they create. We team up next Friday to bring ESP Institute's Young Marco over from Amsterdam for a debut show...

Clandestino 045 - Peza

We caught Peza soundtracking a beautifully sunny Saturday afternoon last September at the fantastic Festival No.6 and ever since then he's been on our hit list for a mix. Of course, we were already well aware of his super-cool edits on Authodiscotheque and A&R. If you've not heard his Human League re-interpretation; you simply aint dancing in the right places. Look out for a forthcoming remix of Tronik Youth's 'Splinter of the Mind's Eye' on Nein, and his next single 'Mekon' on Peter Herbert...

Clandestino 044 - Black Merlin (Part 3)

Completing his third instalment for us we welcome back George Thompson in his Black Merlin guise. George's mixes are always some of our most well received and this one should be no different. Quite unlike most other things you'll hear; which is of course our mission to bring you interesting sounds from way out there. Black Merlin will shortly be releasing an as of yet untitled album via the Indonesian record label, Island of the Gods. Which George recorded in Indonesia featuring Gamelan music an...

Clandestino 043 - DJ Rocca

A nice change of pace this week as DJ Rocca steps forth to pull together an eclectic session for us. Expect, dub, afro-beat, disco and of course a dash of chug. Rocca is rather busy of late, this month see's a collaboration with Danielle Baldelli released on Nein Records, an EP for El Diablos, an edit on Paper's new Trash The Wax offshoot and a remix on Mexico based Rude Boy. Also look our a special 12' of his side project Crimea X paying homage to John Carpenter. https://soundcloud.com/dj-rocca...

Clandestino 042 - Jennifer Cardini

Clandestino 040 - Rothmans

Rothmans is one of our 'go to' labels; guaranteed to always release music that fits in with the Clandestino ethos so we are pleased to have a mix for our series from them. We are assured the set contains mostly unreleased material with red hot cuts from Tusk Wax, Tim Fairplay and Brassica plus tracks from our EP that will be released on Rothmans next year https://soundcloud.com/rothmans

Clandestino 038 - The Beat Broker

Our first ever podcast from the US; San Francisco to be precise as the Beat Broker injects some much needed West Coast sunshine into a freezing November.

Check it out here http://www.juno.co.uk/artists/Clandestino/ https://soundcloud.com/the-beat-broker

Clandestino 037 - Eskimo Twins

We've been aware of Tim & Nath for quite some time; the pair originally got together as students in our home city of Leeds and forged a strong residency at Wax:On. Since relocating to London Eskimo Twins reputation has blossomed with releases on Clouded Vision and Days Of Being Wild and a series of cool edits on their own 'Reworks' imprint. Look out for their forthcoming remix of Inigo Vontier. Thier mix for us contains new music from Craig Bratley, Heretic and our own track 'Night Waves'. h...

Clandestino 036 - Moscoman

Originally hailing from Tel Aviv and now residing in Berlin Moscoman has been responsible for producing slick, contemporary underground club cuts for Days Of Being Wild and Headman's Relish imprint as well remixing Bot'ox and People Get Real.

Clandestino 035 - Robot 84

Robot 84 has been appearing on our radar more and more over the last 12 month's. His tracks have been supported by DJ's as diverse as Greg Wilson, Erol Alkan, Bill Brewster, Tim Sweeney, Justin Robertson & Rub N Tug and it's not hard to see why. His tracks are sublimely produced and range from shimmering dubby disco, electro-tinged balearica and straight up acid trax. Originally hailing from Scotland and now based in London, Robot84 is the alter-ego of Scott Ferguson, regularly releasing on ...

Clandestino 023 - Franz Underwear

We're back after the New Year and very pleased to welcome our first mix of the year from another one of Italy's Slow Motion crew, Franz Underwear. Now residing in Berlin and with recent releases on Tusk Wax, World Unknown and Clouded Vision, Franz is one of the busiest DJ's in Europe; his sets are a mix of obscure Italian dance, disco house, new wave, space beats, cosmic grooves, electro, acid and some hints of Detroit and Chicago. This mix is an exclusive live performance from the Same Heads pa...

Clandestino 022 - Kid Who

South London DJ, Remixer and Producer Kid Who aka Louis Jacquet steps forth into our virtual DJ booth on this week's episode to lay down some tracks he loves but doesn't get the opportunity to play out. Expect new beat, proto-house, weird new wave and synth sounds. Louis has racked up solid releases on Mindless Boogie, Sccucci Manucci and Nang while running his own Bravura imprint. He has a track out this week on the excellent Rainbow Partners compilation and we should see a new EP out on Bravur...

Clandestino 021 - Jamie Blanco

We have a rather special episode this week as we invite Jamie Blanco to put together a live set, consisting entirely of his own material. Jamie came to our attention through his retrospective, yet entirely modern sound on labels like Tusk Wax and London Housing Trust. His live set has taken him to perform recent shows at Renate in Berlin, and Bad Passion in London. Using Ableton with a controller, sending his tracks through an analogue space echo, loop station and Moog filter and playing live ac...

Clandestino 020 - Marcel Vogel

This episode is all about disco. And we don't mean half-assed nu-disco thrown together on a computer; we mean proper tops off, crackling' vinyl, basement sweatbox disco just like it should be. Bearded Lumberjack Marcel Vogel from rural Germany chops up soulful tunes as a profession and releases some of these on his Lumberjacks in Hell imprint. Others you'll only hear in his DJ sets. Many influences shine through when Marcel is behind the decks; the heat and energy of the Chicago Disco masters, t...

Clandestino 019 - Catalepsia / Days Of Being Wild

Days Of Being Wild is a label we've been keeping a keen eye on over the last 12 months or so. With their tagline of 'slightly deranged club music' it's hard not to be interested, and they have soon caught the ear of Ivan Smagghe, Andrew Weatherall, Chloe and Scott Fraser amongst others. We approached them to record a mix for us and they presented us with this fine live session recorded by label head Catalepsia (aka Jerome Bazzanella) at their monthly DOBW session at Willerhof in France. We're in...

Clandestino 018 - Reza Athar

Iranian born Reza Athar came to our attention with a series of exceptional playlists and mixes. Naturally, we thought it only right and proper to ask him to record something for us. And the result is quite special, a mix very much in keeping with the Clandestino ethos. Now residing in Nijmegen, Netherlands Reza promotes the Horizon party, inviting such calibre of guests as Trevor Jackson, Chloe and Jennifer Cardini. soundcloud.com/rezaathar‎

Clandestino 017 - Chris Duckenfield

Chris Duckenfield is one of the UK's much loved DJ's. A more versatile spinner you will struggle to find; there is no vibe he can't turn his hand to while rocking the spot and he remains relevant after more than 20 years at the front line of underground house music. Quite frankly, there is no further hyperbole needed this week. We are honoured to have him on board. Press play and turn up the volume. http://www.chrisduckenfield.com

Clandestino 016 - Black Merlin

Black Merlin, or George Thompson to his Mum, first came to our attention with his outstanding Brunswick Drive 12" on Commander Weatherall's Bird Scarer label last year. Since then, we've kept a keen eye on his movements and his unique form of 80's inspired, cinematic and analogue heavy aesthetic has earned him further releases on the excellent World Unknown imprint and Mike Simonetti's New Jersey. Look out for an as yet untitled release on London's LN-CC. We are pleased to welcome him into the C...

Clandestino 015 - Fabrizio Mammarella

We continue to shine a light on quality underground music in all four corners of the world and this week we land in Italy, where Fabrizio Mammarella serves up a mysterious, brooding mix of pitched down dance floor sounds. With a unique sound spanning disco, house & techno, Fabrizio has released on Steve Kotey's Hairy Claw and Bear Funk imprints and is part of the Slow Motion collective running parties since 2004 in his native Pescara. He also records as Clap Rules, responsible for quirky rem...

Clandestino 014 - Above Machine

OK hands up, we have a bone fide cracker of a mix here. We first met Steve Lee on a raucous trip to Croatia a few year's back and we have been avid followers of his work as Project Club for some time. A stupidly talented producer, his output on labels such as Is It Balearic?, Need Want and Tusk Wax are nothing but essential. His Balearica night in London reads like a who's who from the underground left field disco scene attracting regular visits from Idjut Boys, Phil Mison, Johnny Nash, Coyote, ...

Clandestino 013 - Tooli

We take our first visit to Scandinavia for this weeks episode as Tobias Lidström steps forward to produce a blend of some of the more interesting records in his bag. Tobias aka DJ Tooli is a stalwart of the Stockholm nightlife scene and plays regularly across Europe. He's co-owner of Local Talk Records, one of Sweden's most respected house music imprints and he is also part of the 24 Hours crew, once responsible for the sadly now defunct but excellent blog. Tobias' mix steps away from the dance ...

Clandestino 012 - Fernando 'Live In Buenos Aires'

This month's podcast comes from Fernando Pulichino who kindly sent us a live mix from a recent set in his native Buenos Aires. We've been big fans of Fernando since he appeared in the early noughties as Silver City with long time collaborator Julian Sanza. The pair also formed the backbone of the seminal, now sadly defunct 2020 Soundsystem. But more recently, Fernando has been turning out some sublime disco drenched house cuts featuring his loose, super funky live bass for labels Bear Funk, Redu...

Clandestino 011 - Clandestino Electric Elephant Mix

This month we take over the reigns to present a 100% live vinyl mix to warm up for our set at this week's Electric Elephant festival over in Croatia. Hope you enjoy it as much as we did recording it... You can still get tickets for the festival if you fancy a few days of sublime music on the Adriatic coast. And why wouldn't you?

Clandestino 010 - Kalidasa

We head into double figures this month as our tenth podcast sees a delightful mix from Brighton's Kalidasa. Perfectly timed for the arrival of summer, this psychedelia inspired set of sun-kissed dubby disco and shimmering balearica is ideal for tuning in and dropping out by the beach, pool or indeed your back garden. In short, right up our strasse. Kalidasa have forthcoming releases on Tusk Wax, Craig Bratley's Magic Feet imprint and Solt Rock's Kinfolk label, we'd urge you to check them out. Su...

Clandestino 009 - Balearic Social

A mix from one of the Clandestino collective this week as Andy Pye takes a break from his acclaimed Balearic Social radio show to lay down some lights down low music for us. We're big fans of Andy's music here at Clandestino HQ. A proper vinyl enthusiast, you can always rely on him to pull out the right music at the right time. His weekly show on Purple Radio is essential listening, pulling in eclectic guest mixes from the likes of Seahawks, Hardway Bros & many others. http://balearicsocialr...

Clandestino 008 - Timothy J. Fairplay

Delighted to have our next podcast put together by a producer who's music we've quickly become major fans of over the last couple of years. Timothy Fairplay makes up the Scrutton St studio axis with Scott Fraser and a certain Andrew Weatherall, forming The Asphodells with the latter who have just released their debut album to critical acclaim on Weatherall's Rotters Golf Club label. Tim's mix contains lots of exclusive tracks you wont hear elsewhere for a while, including upcoming new production...

Clandestino 007 - Flash Atkins

Flash Atkins is a super hero who had his gravy days in the 80s saving the world with his ability to manipulate sound. Unfortunately he's fallen on hard times and can be spotted in the less salubrious parts of London, Manchester and West Yorkshire often stoned or drunk on borrowed money and time. To make ends meet he uses his special powers to remix and make deep disco music for Paper Recordings.
