Soundsystem: BBC Radio 1 Essential Mix / Perseus and Jonas Rathsman
by SIravani Published on Friday, February 1, 2013
Pete’s choice are two stars of the red hot French Express label – American DJ and producer Perseus and Sweden’s Jonas Rathsman. Perseus recently remixed Jessie Ware’s Night Light, whilst Rathsman is behind the funky Tobago EP. The label also released Chris Malinchak’s recent Essential New Tune, So Good To Me.
Co-mixed by Perseus and Jonas, this is two hours of euphoric and soulful music rooted in a contemporary house. Talking about their selections, Perseus explains ‘Club tracks rotate by the month and this mix had to go beyond that. This mix is an essential snapshot of what French Express stands for, an amalgamation of tunes selected by the combined tastes of the label, for the listener, without getting too historical, tributary, or knee deep in personal inspiration-lending music of our pasts’.
Pete Tong of BBC Radio 1 brings you this fantastic mix by future stars of 2013, Perseus and Jonas Rathsman. The mix includes many of the hits from the French Express label as well as some unfamiliar ones. Get acquainted with these guys, they are definitely going to be taking over.
