Recently discovered in my basement on an unlabeled MiniDisc inside the pictured MiniDisc player, this mix features an all vinyl set (because it was the only option) by Andy Grant, recorded some time around the year 2000. Need to get figuring out those track IDs!

My favorite thing is shutting out the world and getting deep, going back to back to back with my fellow DC House Grooves Show residents Ramirez & Katrina Mir. We're always turning up the heat, pushing each other to take things to the next level, and you never know where we're going to end up. And sometimes I hit the record button without telling anyone :) This session was recorded at DC House Grooves HQ on Friday September 28. Five and a half hours of quality, underground grooves from across the house music spectrum. The next DC House Grooves Show on Underground Quality Radio with me (Andy Grant), Ramirez and Katrina Mir is on Saturday October 6 at 10pm ET: https://www.facebook.com/events/319393682179365/ Then, you can catch me and Ramirez at Beats Manuever with Jephté Guillaume Live at 1230 in Washington DC on Sunday October 7: https://www.facebook.com/events/293199721408134/

Episode #73 of Meet the Locals features a hour of quality after hours groovers from a regular on the local underground scene, Reflections & Blueprint founder Jandro: "This mix is driven by what happens when the club lights come on and its closing time; where do we go from here, who's playing and what's playing? In my case I'm looking for deep grooves, rolling bass lines, raw kicks and organic sounds oddly placed within the set. This 12 track spread is a glimpse into said after hours vibe. This sound has always peaked my curiosity and I'm now find myself wanting to play it more often, hence the resurgence of BlueprintDC. Blueprint provides the stage where I can really push the boundaries with this sound which is something I really want to focus on moving forward. " You can catch Jandro next on August 31 at Blueprint at Jimmy Valentine's Lonely Hearts Club spinning an all-vinyl minimal set alongside Arthur Kimskii: https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=1807552792615379

The latest Meet the Locals podcast features the second mix in this series from DC local Steve Kirn, and is a welcome change of pace. 80 minutes of dark, moody, percussive techno vibes... headphones on, eyes closed, head down, proper techno therapy! Over to Steve: "It's pretty much a slow burn heads down dark hypnotic techno/breaky mix. I don't get a chance to play techno out much even though it's my favorite genre to spin so I put some of my favorite artists / producers / labels" You can catch Steve next at Blueprint at Jimmy Valentine's Lonely Hearts Club in Washington DC alongside Monix & Ron Jackson: https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=410969139367890 SoundCloud: @steven-kirn Facebook: www.facebook.com/kirnie

We've been waiting for this one for quite a while, and it doesn't disappoint! Episode #69 of the Meet the Locals Podcast features a fixture on the queer underground music scene here in DC, StrikeStone! This one takes you on quite a journey, kicking things off with sleazy slow jams, teasing you on to the dance floor, then really letting loose with the high energy groovers. Over to the man himself for a few words about the mix: "Dancing can be a very intimate moment. I think how you dance, says a lot about how you make love. Considering this being the 69th DC House Grooves Meet the locals mix, I decided it would be a best fit to bring those sensual vibes, going from 93bpm to 128bpm all in 2 hours. Although I bring an array of eclectic dance music such as Techno, UKG, Drum & Bass, expect some funky soulful disco cruising vibes into those technowave feels! If you want the track-list, just comment on the mix and I'll hit you up with an ID!!! Much Love!" Upcoming gigs: - Friday April 27th Bear Happy Hour at Roc
