Emergency Lone


A bumping mix from Lone got me through the drizzle on the walk to work on Monday morning, so you know it ain't half bad...



Recorded as part of Dutch festival Dekmantel's podcast series, I was switched on to this by Pitchfork and their mixes of the month feature. As with everything on Pitchfork, they use overly flowery language and a TL;DR approach to writing, but it's worth wading through to find gems like Lone's bumping set. So if you fancy a tidy hour of great house music then get on this.

As an aside I've never got the 'rave revivalism' tag that is always thrown at Lone, if his stuff has nostalgic touches then I think it shows he knows his onions rather than being a retrograde step or a regressive sign.
