Welcome to COMBINATIONS & INSPIRATIONAL IDEAS – Show 1 of 2. Over the next two weeks I'm taking a slightly different approach. Think of these as road-trip mixes with less talking, more music, giving us all a chance to get lost in the journey over the summer. 

imagine you're heading for the coast, exploring somewhere new or simply enjoying a drive with the windows down, these mixes are designed to accompany the adventure. Every track has earned its slot, each one inspiring the next, creating a journey built on curiosity, groove and discovery.
 I hope these records become part your holiday soundtrack.

The heatwave has returned to the UK and hit us hard this week, hence the name of this week's show: SWELTER. Episode artwork was taken during our trip to the Alhambra, which was probably the first time we experienced truly sweltering temperatures (around 40°C). Tracks featured in this week's show include a couple of interesting selections from my music library: Natural Vaudou – Vaudou Game, Calle F – Mala, and Heat – Rapson & Nathan Thomas, all of which capture the sweltering essence of the show.

I've called this one Freedom Suite as it's a straight through mix for sunshine vibes where ever you are. Full track list available to djrobbieduncan.com/elecsoul Come over and I'll see you there!

This week’s show is called SOOFLE. Soofle is a highly influential early French deep house and techno project formed in 1993 by legendary electronic producers Ludovic Navarre (best known as St Germain) and Shazz. I’m genuinely happy right now. The sunshine is finally out, and after nearly six years of building, shifting and refining ElecSoul, the studio setup finally feels how I want it to feel… or at least I think it does!
