Here are Nialler9’s current favourite tunes for dancing, while we can’t. Follow the Nialler9 DJ Favourites on Spotify for the full list and keep an eye on Lumo for live streams and future events.
1.
Kelly Lee Owens
Melt! (Coby Sey remix)
A wonky remix of Kelly Lee Owen’s recent track ‘Melt!’ from the South London musician and NTS Radio DJ.
2.
Jaakko Eino Kalevi
The Search (Domenique Dumont remix)
Latvian/French trio Domenique Dumont bring the Kraftwerk vibes on the remix to our Finnish favourite’s original, which was released on Kalevi’s 2019 Dissolution EP.
3.
Man Power
It’s Not A Competition (Telephony Remix)
Mix And Fairbanks’ Rob Smyth comes through as Telephony with a fine remix as part of a remix competition that’s been compiled as a charity release for NHS charities via Bandcamp.
4.
Pangaea
Like This
A surprising big room euphoric banger from Hessle Audio’s Pangaea.
5.
Real Lies
Boss Track (Patrice’s Eternal Edit)
London band Real Lies can really nail late-night dancefloor melancholia. This is their best work since ‘North Circular’. Also, yet another Irish reference to Punchestown – coincidence or does one of the band have a connection?
6.
Róisín Murphy
Murphy’s Law – Murphy’s Big Dub
Róisín Murphy’s tunes are made for dub versions and this 11-minute version could easily be a lot longer.
7.
Warmduscher
Midnight Dipper (Soulwax remix)
With the members of Warmduscher coming from acts like Paranoid London and Fat White Family, this is easy pickings for a Soulwax remix. A big bassline rules this roost.
8.
Chris Rea
Loving You Again (Storken & La Mer Baltique Edit)
Another long one that could float on by for hours. A free download from House Of Disco.
