Funkier Radio Episode 53 (Mavalo Guest Mix)

Welcome to Episode 53, which starts off slow for once with a little selection of mellow but extremely funky little numbers, before I crank up the pace for some disco house and nu disco mingled in with jazzy stuff, 80s funk and some classic disco. As always it’s a mixed bag, with one eye always firmly on the funk. For hour 2 it’s my pleasure to welcome Belgian DJ and producer Mattijs Van Loy, also known as Mavalo, who brings you a lovely hour of disco flavoured, soulful, housey and exotic beats. Mavalo started DJing in 2015 and quickly scored a residency and festival slots, as well as a set on the main stage of Destino (Pacha Beachclub) in Ibiza. After being a DJ for a couple of years he wanted to explore if he could make his own productions as well. With 'Chocolate' Mavalo had his first official release in June 2020 on ChessBoard Music. Later that year he released his ‘Feet Will Move’ EP on the mighty Midnight Riot Records. Mavalo can be followed on Facebook, Instagram, Bandcamp and Soundcloud. Every month a new mixtape called ‘Recordbox’ is uploaded on Soundcloud in which he presents a fine selection of fresh new tunes. Mavalo doesn't think too much in terms of genres. Far more importantly, the vibe is all that matters to him. However, if a particular style has to be marked, then an energetic mix of Disco House, Jackin' House, Jazzy House and Future Funk would give you a pretty good idea.
