A year of incredible podcast mixes that proved more popular than ever before.

Wow, what a year 2023 has been for our podcast mixes! We've had an incredible 12 months featuring an amazing variety of DJ talent across a wide range of dance music genres. And the best part? This year saw our highest streaming numbers yet! But that's not all - 2023 was also a year where we put the spotlight on an incredible lineup of female DJs, making it the most exciting and diverse year yet!

Wallis we're handing you the 'PMOTY2023' crown! How do you feel about it?

Just WOW, with all the amazing DJs you feature over the course of the year that is something that I never expected. Thank you so so much!

Your mix was hugely popular with our audience - talk us through the tracks you chose to include.

I just love them. It's the vocals along with the riff patterns of the synth and it's hard not to like those hard rolling bass lines. These tracks always get me going so I couldn't not put them together in the mix. I still play some of them in my sets now, they always get the crowd going. Weapons.

This would probably be a good time to shout out those that have supported you.

First has to be my Casa family supporting me from day one. Big love goes to my mates and all of you who come to dance to my sets and listen to my mixes, you're all just delicious and I appreciate every single one of you. The venues I've played at and all the bookings I've had along the way. I could go on but I won't haha.

What do you have planned for 2024?

2024 is going to be a big year for me personally, as well as seeing some of my music being released, very exciting. Playing at the Live at Argyle event in May will definitely be a highlight of the year.
