DJ MAG WEEKLY PODCAST — JAY SHEPHEARD

Retrofit boss mixes it up

Jay Shepheard is excellent. The brains behind his Retrofit label, his distinct production style is always spot on and his DJ/live sets always meet the high expectations set forth by it.

His ability to merge stripped back functionality and cosmic funk is like nobody else's in the game and this has been going on since 2007, when releases like 'Romance Gdansk' and 'Pipe N Sneakers' turned up for Compost's Black Label spin off.

Since the Berlin-based Brit worked with the late Martin Dawson, released on Buzzin' Fly and put out defining 'Home & Garden' LP in 2013, while his sophomore album 'Seeing Sound' is a love letter to what he does best; proggy disco tech-house built for the dancefloor.

A master of mood amid metronomic movement, he's mixed this week's podcast featuring the likes of Mark Henning, Genius of Time and Daniel Avery and it's everything you'd want and expect...
