Guest MIX #5: The Connection by fico
Francisco Espregueira
This month we have the pleasure of welcoming fico, one of the guys behind the reputable Abysmal Lounge collective. The Japanese DJ, based in the city of Fukuoka, takes us into a soulful and eclectic musical journey showcasing real knowledge behind the decks. The Connection is a mesmerizing 45-minute selection, prescribed for the ones leaving behind the bad sensations.
From the jazzy approaches by Guerrinha and George John, passing by the vintage feelings by Maya and Ichon, the energy by Manuel Darquart and Altay Veloso, driving towards the endless night with Diamond, Soichi Terada and more… It all ends looking towards the nightsky with MJ Cole and Kojey Radical. Buckle up, this the first Connection.
“Here are some music I found during the pandemic. Hopefully these will lift you up in this tough time as they did to me, till the day we can hang out with mates like we used to.”
