While rummaging through my old recordings, I came across a forgotten mix from 24 May 2017 – a night that was sealed in my memory like a pressed flower between the pages of time. I had almost forgotten how it all began: my big sister, Simon, arrived in Zurich with his wild grin, bringing the restless pulse of London with his in his suitcase.
We had planned a little conspiracy of joy. Francesco, our brother in music, had flown in from London to create the soundscape for the INSIDE party at the Queens Club with me, unaware that Simon had already made his way through the city to meet him at the club. The moment he saw him – his eyes widened, disbelief melted into laughter – the night burst open like a spark igniting dry tinder.
But the magic wasn't limited to friends reuniting. Somewhere between the basslines and the neon lights, between Simon's relentless dancing and the sweat-drenched walls of the club, I found someone I hadn't expected. Someone who changed the rhythm of the night and perhaps the rhythm of everything that came after.
This mix – which I rediscovered by chance – is more than just a recording.
It is the soundtrack to Simon's untamed dance, the pulse of a night in which the future opened up like a motorway, far beyond Zurich, far beyond 2017, towards all
