Phantasy Phantasy

PHANTASYMIX returns with a fresh contribution from enigmatic producer Kiaki. Inspired by the ethos of our own Daniel Avery, alongside Aphex Twin and Detroit pioneers Drexciya, Kiaki specializes in deep, slow-mo, e-motional house and techno as well, punctured by the attitude and influences such as the gold-plated era of early 00s hip-hop.

Having released on Man Power’s prolific, instinctive imprint Me Me Me and after fronting shows on Rinse and WWFM, Kiaki’s eclectic and thoughtful mix for Phantasy offers a journey from Kraftwerk through to Trikk, seamlessly linking Diana Ross and Acid Arab.

Kiaki’s mix for Phantasy is now streaming on Apple Music and Mixcloud.

Already residents on Worldwide FM and one of Mixmag’s Breakthrough DJs of The Year in 2021, it’s a delight to welcome Dar Disku to Phantasy for a contribution to the #PHANTASYMIX series, eighty-three glorious minutes awash in the diverse, psychedelic fervor we can’t get enough, ranging from upfront, festival-ready disco to offbeat polyrhythms and boisterous folk mutations. Equally insightful and unpredictable, Dar Disku’s mix is a musical trip that keeps on giving.

This International Women’s Day, spend an hour deep in the passionate, versatile selections of Jay Carder.

There are numerous sides to Jay Carder that demonstrate a DJ, promoter and radio host truly at ease with their own taste. Describing her selections as a “concoction of heavier, leftfield bass and lighter, psychedelic techno”, this is the sort of vibe that Carder delivers for her contribution to Phantasy’s mix series.

For this bumping and classy hour, Carder connects her alignment with a resurgent UK underground transforming a legacy of garage and breaks - recent appearances on the decks have placed her alongside K-Lone and the Dr. Banana crew - with a trippy house aesthetic that’s more than familiar to Phantasy, just as Carder is to us. As you can see, she’s even repping the t-shirt.

Reuniting on record for the first time since 2015, The Rhythm Odyssey & Dr. Dunks arrive on Phantasy with a double-barrel delivery of legitimate weirdo disco, ‘El Cid’. Comprising of Chicken Lips’ own Dean Meredith and crate-digging DJ extraordinaire, Eric Duncan, both tracks come complete with additional playing from Andy Meecham, AKA, The Emperor Machine.
