MASS 53 | Lo Ds by MASS

Oslo based producer and DJ Rub800 provides the next MASS mix! Ahead of his forthcoming release on our label, tune into this blend showcasing the prolific artists’ digs. Moods meander through the spirited margins of house, techno and minimal territories. Two tracks from the EP feature! Can you guess which?

DJ Service is a Barcelona-based duo made up of long time collaborators and devoted selectors Driahn and Oscar Silvente. After years of playing solo, they first linked up for a b2b where the chemistry clicked straight away. Five years in, they’ve carved out a sound rooted in UK tech house, whilst inspired by their international roots. Driahn’s UK-via-Netherlands & Barcelona flavours meet Silvente’s Barcelona born and raised rhythms. Alongside that, they’ve launched their own imprint, DJ Serviced Records pushing rising talent from the city and beyond. For MASS 51, they deliver a 90-minute mix that shows their sonic range, taking a patient approach and letting things bubble naturally. Tune in 🎶 @djservice-callnow @driahn @silventelazar

The next MASS mix is quite the milestone as we reach our 50th episode! We're thrilled to present the enigmatic Pascale Project in this delicious 70 minute blend. Pascale’s sound caught us instantly. A hypnotic blend of mind-bending textures, slow-burning tension and undeniable sensuality. Each transition is carefully considered, balancing tension and release while allowing every track the space to breathe and quietly command attention. Originally from Montreal and now based in Berlin, Pascale Project is both a producer and DJ, as well as the mind behind Sparkling, an independent mix series and label that mirrors the same refined, detail-driven approach. Tune in :) @pascaleproject

Introducing.: Master C-Fu! Lyon-based DJ, radio host and core member of the Everybody Trance collective. His infectious style brings a free and playful vibe to his sound, both solo and in the DJ duo, Cesar & Jason. His show The C-Fu’s Dojo on Lyl Radio blurs lines between genres, keeping the Lyon scene connected, and is now linked with the LeGram VG record store crew working behind the scenes. Known for his eclectic sound, Cesar has played legendary spots like Griessmühle and Hoppetosse in Berlin and is a regular at festivals such as Le Chant des Oiseaux and Évasion. This time bringing his sound to MASS for this slick selection : Tune In 💥 @cez-jazz

Gabba - a long-time friend of the crew and dedicated digger, steps up with her first ever mix! A carefully curated, vinyl-only journey through her collection. Born in Zimbabwe, raised in Mallorca, and now based in Barcelona, her sound reflects a life shaped by different rhythms and movements. Recorded live, this one flows easy and real with honest selections straight from the heart. Tune in @gabbaguu4uu

Islas aka Ailsa Cavers is the curious mind behind many projects. From co-creating the Basic Moves record label, PLANET collective and the pop-up shop objet petit a / op-a with Dana Kuehr, there's always something fizzing. We first met back in 2016, bumping into both her and Walrus in Leeds' Wire, Distrikt and Tribe Records over the same weekend. After a few shared tales, we ended up back at an afters for a long mission of mixing records and sharing more stories from their digging trip around the UK. Ailsa has since developed a potent and intriguing style behind the decks, sitting somewhere between wonky minimal and punky oddballs, right through to introspective ambient and atmospheric club tracks. There's always been a fruitful connection between the crews for almost 10 years, and it's about time we showcased her sonics in this wicked pod. Strap in! @islasaliasailsa Photo by Marine Urbain

Lo-Lo is one of the minds behind the excellent Ascendancy curation and label. Born in Uruguay and now based in Barcelona, the DJ and producer caught our attention from the very first time we heard him spin. Full of intrigue and depth, his patient blends find a place between genres, flirting with the fringes of minimalist house and techno. Music that lands softly on the mind, like a sonic neurological massage. Tune into this 90-minute trip from one of our favourite DJs in the city. @lo-lo0

Fresh from our home city Leeds, co-founder and resident of On The Button, Luke Foulkes delivers a tightly curated blend of digs from his collection. Yorkshire born and raised, he’s been digging deep for many years with residencies both at Albion Records and The Imaginarium, as well as several tasteful podcasts showing a deeper side. Strap into 80 minutes of obscure and moreish beats in MASS 45. @luke-foulkes @onthebuttonleeds @imaginarium-leeds

Hypnotic Mindscapes curator and founder Cosmic JD joins us for the next episode of the MASS podcast. Known for delivering intelligent grooves on the dancefloor through both his DJ sets and live performances, JD recently unveiled a new dimension to his sound We first caught a glimpse of this shade at the Seekers x Faciendo weekender at Hoppetosse in snowy Berlin this past February. With tired legs after hours on the floor, we drifted downstairs and stumbled into a deeply considered downtempo set, curated with warmth, restraint, and intention. It was a moment that gently pulled us inward, reshaping the energy of the night. Inspired by that experience, we invited Cosmic to share this reflective mode with us. What followed is a soulful, immersive journey, grounded in emotion, textured in detail, and delivered with care. Tune in to this special set, and keep an ear out for more from JD and the Hypnotic Mindscapes imprint. @cosmicjd
