As summer unfolds, so do the emotions and energy that come with it. Long days, slow nights, city heat, seaside breezes. In this episode of Dirty Disco, we explore how sound changes with the light, with the movement of time, with our shifting moods.

Episode 606 is about transitions. It is about those moments when you’re not quite sure whether you’re arriving or leaving. Whether you’re dancing in the kitchen or reflecting on a bike ride home. Whether you’re lost in the rhythm or fully aware of the silence between the beats.

With “Shifting Frequencies” as our theme, we bring together new voices, familiar grooves, and unexpected textures. This is one of those mixes that resonates on multiple levels. You might hear it as a summer soundtrack, a story in motion, or a reminder that underground music is still evolving, and that you’re part of that evolution.

Highlights from Episode 606

A vocal-driven deep house journey

At the heart of this episode is the emotional resonance of Sió, the South African storyteller whose voice cuts through club walls like poetry. Together with London-based producer Tesfa Williams, she presents a slice from her new album SIGMA – a personal, unapologetic exploration of self-worth, boundaries, and transformation. Written in just four days at Strong Room Studios in Shoreditch, the album blends powerful beats with deep vulnerability. Sió calls it her rebellion through self-love, and it is every bit as brave as that sounds.

The groove gets deeper

We keep the momentum alive with a soulful peak from Demuir on the Hiest Recordings imprint. “New Spirit” does exactly what it says, it brings a spiritual freshness to the floor. Live basslines, dusty percussion, and hypnotic chords come together in a way only Demuir can engineer. It’s club music with a conscience, and it grooves hard.

A Parisian touch with purpose

From France, Victor Tomasi teases his forthcoming Democracy EP, out July 18 on the legendary Paper Recordings. These tracks were built on analog gear, recorded with real drums and electric bass in Montreuil. The EP is narrative and tactile, drawing on the physicality of live performance while staying firmly rooted in dance floor aesthetics. It’s deep house with character, textured, human, and thoughtful.

Norwegian dream disco

Then there’s Lakeshouse, a collective born from childhood friendships and endless creative sessions on living room floors. Their track “Renate’s Dans” is an eccentric piece of modern disco, layered with arpeggiated synths, cosmic elements, and a touch of Norwegian oddness. Paper Recordings delivers again, linking past and present with playful precision.
