I really enjoy finding records to play at doors open and the earlier stages of the night. At that point you can really play from a wide range of sounds. Here are five pulled from a recent record bag.

Taken from his latest album. This song doesn’t do a huge amount but works the blues sample beautifully. It could easily have been total cheese, but manages not to be.

I could listen to this on loop all day. Hippy dance.

This sounds very balearic to me. Lovely stripped back production on this dub and sounds like they had been listening to Eno/Byrne.

Norwegian classic. Very addictive, but I wish it was longer!

Krikor continues to deliver again and again. Prince meets DJ Screw in a perfect sleazed out jam.
