The Funk Assassin

Sunset to Sunrise: Soulful House Sessions

A golden-hour journey through soulful, Sun-kissed, feel-good house. Opening with two original tracks from The Funk Assassin, “Thinking Of You” and “Distant Tenderness”, before drifting into warm grooves from Miguel Migs & Lisa Shaw, Sandy Rivera / Kings of Tomorrow, Purple Disco Machine, Mousse T., The Shapeshifters, Billy Porter, Dimitri From Paris, Angelo Ferreri and more.

This one’s built for late sunsets, sea air, rooftop lights, soft smiles, and those moments when the music says what words can’t.

From sunset to sunrise, this is soulful house with heart, rhythm, romance, and just the right amount of Balearic heat.

For the dancers.
For the dreamers.
For the ones you can’t stop thinking about.

Discothèque Decadence Soundsystem presents DD021: Latin Yacht House Party

A sun-drenched voyage through Latin house, yacht grooves, Balearic warmth, and feel-good dancefloor gold.

Opening with the smooth luxury of Benny Santiago’s “Give Me the Night - Cielo Extended”, the mix glides into The Doobie Brothers’ “Long Train Runnin’”, Yacht Rock Revue’s “San Junipero”, Daryl Hall & John Oates’ “I Can’t Go for That” in the Pomo remix, Party Pupils’ “Never Too Much”, and Christopher Cross’ “Ride Like The Wind - Yacht House Mix” — all bringing that glossy, sunset-on-the-water energy.

Then the Latin fire rises. David Penn, DJ Chus & Dr. Kucho!’s “Esperanza” leads into Africanism & Salomão De Bahia’s “Cada Vez”, before two personal weapons take centre stage: The Funk Assassin – “Sabor En Tu Piel” and The Funk Assassin – “Di Mi Nombre (Spanglish Pop Soul Edit)”. Both capture the heart of the mix: sensual, rhythmic, warm, and built for that golden-hour moment when the drinks are flowing, the sea is glowing, and the groove takes over.

The second half goes full Latin house celebration with Los Amigos Invisibles & Masters At Work, Junior Jack, Basement Jaxx, Negrocan, Ultra Naté, Afro Medusa, Cesária Évora, and Bellini bringing carnival energy, percussion, big hooks, and Balearic heat.

Latin house with yacht-house polish. Sunset cocktails. Big grooves. A Discothèque Decadence trip from the crates to the coastline.

Record Store Day 2026: French Touch & Nu Disco Session 🇫🇷✨

This one’s built around four of my own Record Store Day exclusives -
Midnight In Your Eyes, Midnight Quai, Midnight Tourist, and Deep Ember Loop - each designed for a different moment in the night. Slow, seductive openers into deeper, hypnotic territory… no filler.

I open with Midnight In Your Eyes into Midnight Quai - warm, late-night, and effortless. From there, the mix glides into the sound that shaped everything here…

St Germain “So Flute” and “Deep in It” - jazz, house, soul. A clear influence throughout.

The energy lifts into French Touch essentials -
Bob Sinclair “Champs Elysées Theme”, Daft Punk “Phoenix”, Demon “You Are My High” - melodic, driving, and built for movement.

Then we dip deeper…
Café de Flore (Charles Webster Mix) into Rose Rouge - slower, richer, more immersive.

That’s where Midnight Tourist and Deep Ember Loop land - darker, hypnotic, and built for those locked-in late-night moments.

From there, it’s pure flow - touching on Revolution 909, Mothership Reconnection, and the lift from It’s Yours and Happiness as the mix opens back out into that sunrise feeling.

Press play. Turn it up.
