🎧 Album Reco: History of House | Soweto Gospel Choir, Groove Terminator + Latroit (2024)
I am trying something new this week by sharing an album reco instead of a new mood-based playlist. I absolutely loved this new album and wanted to share with everyone! What happens when you take producer/DJ Latroit, South Africa's Soweto Gospel Choir & Australian electronic artist Groove Terminator…re-imagined House classics. Latroit shared about the mission of the project…
“Our mission, the idea for the project was to bring dance music, which is undeniable - Western dance music, which is undeniably African American music, back to an African project and then re-export it to the world through an African perspective. That was the original sort of mission statement of the project”
*This album has been added to this playlist that gets updated with each new mix!

🛍️ Listen to Music Club tunes & support small business this weekend in Venice!
6 months ago I came across this cute little shop off of Abbot Kinney called Union. It was opened by Kelly to bring people together by uniting them with products from other small artists/businesses around the world. I also love how open and vulnerable Kelly is on social about running a small business. It’s a great spot to grab a b-day gift, housewarming gift or just because why not treat yourself gift. They also have a lot of cool mugs that would be perfect to drink BPM coffee out of :)
If you’re not in LA or unable to attend, you can shop online.
