The week’s best mixes: Lorenzo Senni’s trance classics and jackin’ moves from Clone boss Serge – FACT

Each week, FACT trawls through the untamed world of free mixes, radio specials and live blends so you dont have to.

This week, Lorenzo Senni inspires euphoria with a selection of trance build-ups that inspired his recentPersona EP, Sega Bodega makes the Bomfunk MCs cool again and Beat Librae showcases her heady, dub-tinged techno.

Theres also a mix from the UK-based gal-dem zine, jackin house from Clone boss Serge and two hours of neo-classical from Sicario composer Jhann Jhannsson. Dive in.

Lorenzo Senni The Making of Persona

Nobody knows trance like Lorenzo Senni, and here the Warp artist shows us the inner workings of his musical mind with this mix of music that inspired last years Persona EP. Mixing the best bits of everything from commercial EDM and the sounds of Darudes Sandstorm, this mix proves that you can get high without drugs. Just dont expect any drops.

gal-dem Outlook 2017 Mix Series #2

Gal-Dems trilpill reps the UK underground with a mix that packs in everything from garage and grime to dancehall and bassline. Kicking off with Dawn Penns You Dont Love Me (No No No) and folding in tracks by Giggs, General Levy and more, its a party-starting blend that doesnt let up.

Sega Bodega i-DJ Mix

Hot on the heels of his Ess B EP for Crazylegs, rising club artist Sega Bodega lands on the i-D mix series for 40 minutes of edits and originals. As well as tracks from Staycores Dinamarca, Kid Kishore and lo-fi Lisbonite DJ Fatigado, expect VIPs of Halcyon Veil artist Celyn June, Arca and Bomfunk MCs 1999 classic Freestyler. Bonkers, but brilliant.

Beta Librae Truancy Volume 170

Keep this one stored up for when you next require a moment of peaceful immersion, as Kansas-born, New York-based Beta Librae has the perfect recipe. She draws for sparse, fluid house from the deepest depths on a two-part mix that combines her own productions (in the first half) with some of her recent influences, and its heady, soothing stuff perfect for a dazed walk through the city or an late night/early morning session.

Jhann Jhannsson Electronic Explorations 461

Theres still seven months to go until we can hear Jhann Jhannssons Blade Runner 2049 score, but we can at least tide ourselves over with this mix for the Electronic Explorations series. Theres music from fellow soundtrack composers Michael Nyman and Ennio Morricone, but also avant-garde sounds from Morton Feldman, Karlheinz Stockhausen and Greek chamber music trio Mohammad. Perfect for a quiet Sunday morning.

Serge Clone Jack For Daze @ Snar 2015

Clone is 25! The bossman Serge celebrates one of the greatest dance labels in history by sharing his Snar mix from 2015, and its a jackin, smackin spectacular of broken booty shakers and four-to-the-floor filth from DJ Deeon and the like. Wallflowers stay home.
