Anushka’s recent ‘Yemaya’ album for Tru Thoughts has been on solid repeat, so we are very excited to share an exclusive mix from the duo’s Max Wheeler, who has put together a special mix linking the early 80s roller boogie sound of LA with more recent favourites and a couple of exclusives.
Max shared some words about the recording: “This mix was me trying to blow off some cobwebs and remember how to DJ after a long time away from the decks. When I got the tunes together I realised I was really drawn to the super positive sunshine party vibes of the roller boogie stuff and so started with half an hour of that and then got into some electronic bits I’ve been finding inspiring recently before dropping a couple of sneaky exclusive dubs in, including a minimal edit of album track “Serenity” which is one of our faves. Hope you all enjoy it, one to have a low key party to, even if you’re just in your yard.”
