8 year deep, Beirut In the Mix continues to deliver on its musical promises, creating consistently exciting parties, podcasts and radio shows for Beirut increasingly prominent underground music scene.

BITM #281 Hisham Zahran guestmix
Corporate slave by day, DJ by night: some people call it a contradiction, Hisham Zahran calls it getting the best of both worlds. Alongside his Brother and production partner Adham Zahran, Hisham has been consistently seeing releases on labels such as Mood Music, Audio Tonic, White Rabbit Records and many more. We invite him to the show celebrating together 6 years of Beirut In The Mix already.. 6 years?! Yeah, that's pretty exciting.

BITM #276 Adam Port guestmix
For our next episode we welcome Adam Port. Here's the deal: the common contemporary DJ/Producer steals an Underground Resistance-Record from his older brother at the age of 16 (biographical details may vary, not to impair the facts, though), thus presuming to have found the holy grail (what, of course, nobody is claiming to deny). His world is shrinking down to Detroit, Chicago, New York and Berlin within the following years, he’ll equip himself with records and turntables and not look over the rim of his MKII ever again. Here's his 1 hour ear candy guestmix ahead of his gig at Sporting Club this Saturday!

Without any doubt our Sonar 2012 highlight: born and raised in Istanbul, studied in London, relocated to Paris in 2005, and actually Berlin-Based (ouf!), the unpredictable Tolga Fidan is our guest for this installment.. His musical interest organically morphed into deep techno, signed exclusively with Vakant, and became the label’s youngest-ever artist.

BITM #263 Gunnar Stiller guestmix
That one has a German twist in it. Berlin Based Gunnar Stiller is Ronin & Nesta guest for this installment: becoming a fixture of the city's underground scene, he quickly gained notoriety playing in clubs like Watergate, Panorama Bar and Bar 25. Stiller’s technique is deep in character, an outward-reaching combination of techno and house with his trademark funk-tinged basslines - and we've witnessed that! He also produces solid dancefloor filler on respected labels like Upon You and Voltage Musique. Enjoy the ride!
