Rio 010 - Wyndham
For our tenth mix in our burgeoning series, we've shaken the format up a bit. Having previously put out exclusively live recordings from our parties and Bonanza, this time we have a nice, juicy studio mix from our friend Wyndham.
I (Ben) first met Wyn at Freerotation in 2022, where we immediately formed a strong bond over music and the unity that specific dance floors can bring. Having taken the plunge to go solo to Freero, Wyn returned the favour and hopped across the Atlantic to attend Bonanza 2023, playing on the Thursday night with fellow deep digger and BFF Sami.
A champion of clean grooves, nifty breaks and immaculate mixing, Wyn delves deep into his bag of classic tech house and breaks for a 3 hour voyage here on Rio 010. You can catch him playing on the beach at Bonanza 2025 in a few weeks, as well as his Swivel label parties throughout the year back in London.
Rio 009 - Silvia Ponce (Recorded live at Bonanza lite 2024)
For our final poddy of the year, we are chuffed to bring you a slice of Silvia Ponce's set from Bonanza lite back in August.
Recorded on the sticky second and final night of the party, Silvia led the terrace through a selection of golden era tech-house, prog and trance that lit the place on fire.
One to chuck on to kick off your NYE celebrations, and of course get you in the mood for Bonanza, which is just 6 short weeks away.... See you in February xx
Rio 008 - Vera (recorded live at Bonanza 2024)
Bringing a little slice of jungle sunshine in these winter months, next up we have a chunk of Vera's set from Bonanza 2024.
Recorded deep on the Sunday night, Vera took us on a proper trip deep into her acidic vortex. Unhurried and classy, this is Vera at her late night best.
Don't miss her during Bonanza 2025, this time taking care of some after-hours terrace action.
