Justin Miller, the handsome face of DFA Records and a regular fashion-event D.J., suggests a playlist to get the party started.
Joe Goddard - Gabriel (feat. Valentina) - DFA / Greco-Roman
“The latest solo work from Joe Goddard of Hot Chip featuring some really stunning vocals by Valentina. People really respond to this one. I think because it has this hint of dub step to it in the vein of James Blake.”
ONO - Talk Universe (Juan Maclean Acid Dub Mix)- Mind Train / Twisted Records
“An incredible slow dubbed out remix by Juan Maclean for Yoko Ono’s latest album. I’m a huge fan of all things Yoko Ono especially her album, ‘Approximately Infinite Universe’”
CFCF - Cometrue - UNO
“Beautiful new track by Montreal native CFCF. The piano line in this track has an air of sophistication totally fitting for a fashion event.”
Motor City Drum Ensemble - L.O.V.E. - Studio !K7
“Hypnotic soulful Chicago house/Detroit techno in the vein of Moodymann or Theo Parrish made by the young and talented German producer Danilo Plessow.”
Suzanne Kraft - Turning - Running Back
“West coast washed synth/disco/r&b/pop reminiscent of early 80’s production that is playful and upbeat.”
Paul McCartney - Temporary Secretary - Parlophone
“Classic new wave track from the 1980 experimental, synth-based album McCartney II which has just been recently re-issued.”
Phreek Plus One - Passion ft Mr. White (DJ T. Remix) - Compost Records
“This track is sexy. So sexy that the supermodel Alessandra Ambrosio came up to me and asked me what i was playing. This is where house music and Depeche Mode blend together perfectly.”
Lidell Townsell - Nu Nu (Original Club Mix) - Mercury
“Hip-House is back! Again here is an example of house music moving into the mainstream. This early 90’s track will get all the girls in the room dancing, guaranteed.”
Benoit & Sergio - Everybody - DFA
“One of the summers biggest anthemic tracks with larger than life bass-line that is capable of filling the largest of dance floors… ‘Everybody’ loves it.”
The Rapture - It Takes Time to Be a Man - DFA
“A perfect end of the night track that both the young and old will relate to. The cut up piano and bass-line sounds like an early 90’s hip hop track mixed with classic rock.”
