Dc House Grooves Meet The Locals Podcast

For DC House Grooves 186, we welcomed DJ Osmose @osmose (Smokecloud Records) for a special all-vinyl session, originally broadcast live on Saturday March 21st, 2026. For this edition, we went fully analog. All vinyl, all night. No CDJs, no digital shortcuts. Just turntables, deep crates, and the kind of musical journey that only comes from DJs who live and breathe records. Our special guest DJ Osmose is a turntablist with more than 26 years behind the decks, known for wide-ranging sets that moved fluidly between disco, 70s funk & soul, 80s boogie, golden era hip-hop, reggae, Brazilian cuts, and deep house while always keeping the dance floor in focus. Osmose has shared the stage with artists including Grandmaster Flash, DJ Shadow, Cut Chemist, Kai Alce, Ursula 1000, Lee “Scratch” Perry, and The Wailers, and has toured extensively across North America, South America and the Caribbean. Osmose is also the founder of Smokecloud Records, a strictly vinyl-only label focused on soul and funk driven dance music r
