A little more on this a bit later but huge thanks to the Delayed crew for releasing the recording from my set at Movement Electronic Music Festival and the very kind words

Some DJs treat genre boundaries like walls; others see them as doors. Craig Gonzalez belongs firmly to the latter camp.

New mix up for the IT crew

Ahead of the work we are doing with Detroit veteran Craig Gonzalez this year, here is a mix he’s done exploring new rhythms and soundscapes. We thought it would be prudent to share a mix of one of his many fresh perspectives, where he explores something we at IT find very compelling — new juxtapositions of polyrhythms and drum and bass within a deeply hypnotic techno context.

"I’ve really been enjoying exploring the sonic space between techno and drum and bass. What excites me about this fusion is how it challenges both myself and fans of these genres, as it often defies the expectations of each. The introduction of polyrhythms takes it even further, pushing the boundaries and making the music feel truly genre-agnostic. In this space, the emphasis shifts away from traditional structures, focusing more on rhythm and context than on genre conventions.

This mix is a studio recording rather than a live set from an IT event because I feel that this style of music requires a more intentional approach to the context of an event. It hasn’t quite aligned with the atmosphere of my time slots—at least, not for now." — Craig Gonzalez

I made an all vinyl 00's hip hop mix for the Moods crew and answered a few questions for them

I'm pleased to say that I'm playing this official Movement Electronic Music Festival afterparty, YEL 3.5, at the Leland and it's also the only afterparty I'm playing all weekend long

I'm especially thrilled to be on a lineup amongst heavyweights like Surgeon, Josh Wink, Chris Liebing and Speedy J among others

This is a recording from an event I played in rural Scotland amongst a bunch of heads that all convened to share their own deep musical tastes over the course of a weekend.
