From Rivera's Groove Box #396: N.Y. Connection - The Push


As played by Andrew Weatherall in his amazing 1996 Essental Mix. What a great mix that is, with a selection of deep and funky house tracks. The way the tracks are mixed together is a very fine example of a good DJ mix. Andrew Weatherall lets the tracks really breathe, and the blending is class.

From Rivera's Groove Box #395: SZCH - Untitled A


I really do miss the bright period of the second coming of lo-fi house music (2010-2018), the ideas many producers brought to the table were exciting and fresh. But from the moment this sound went really big with likes of  Mall Grab, Ross From Friends, DJ Seinfeld or Demuja, and tutorials started to appear on the web 'how to make lo-fi house' - it all became watered down and kinda lost its groove. SZCH made some of the most enthralling lo-fi edits, this one is rework of Michael Jackson's 'The Lady In My Life'.

From Rivera's Groove Box #394: DTR ‎– How Many Times? (Unity) (Acid Theme)


One of my best friends used to describe this tune as the perfect waking up in the morning track. Back then I didn't really understand it, but maybe she was right? Another Nu Groove classic track which is slowly desending into an underground cult status.
