Summer Fondue Sessions

In this episode, we're jamming with the legendary 80s and 90s anthems we know by heart, but through a modern, funky lens. It's the sounds of our youth - iconic tracks I was listening to many years ago, transformed by modern producers to give them a fresh nu-disco heartbeat. Featuring reimagined hits from: Madonna, Haddaway, 2 Unlimited, Blur, Faithless, Genesis, Bronski Beat. Depeche Mode.. Whether you're warming up for a night out or just need some productive cleaning motivation, these remakes bring the perfect balance of vintage soul and modern bass. 📺 This is Episode 227 of the Summer Fondue Sessions radioshow, originally an audio‑only show, now in the video format → watch this mix on YT at https://www.youtube.com/@summerfondue 🌐 More information and show archive with tracklists → https://www.summerfondue.com 🙏🏼 Please support the artists making this great music: follow them, stream their work, and buy their releases to help keep the scene thriving!

No words, just pure soul. Sometimes the music says more without any lyrics. For this 227th episode, I’m stripping things back to focus on the pure musicianship. We’re chilling with a curated selection of jazzy soulful house instrumentals - think Rhodes pianos, live sax, flutes, trumpets, and the steady 122-125 BPM groove. Whether you're winding down the day or need a sophisticated rhythm for the background, these twelve tracks (spanning 2000–2013) from the likes of Alankara, Kevin Yost, Micky More, and Mark Grant have you covered. Press play, and let the instruments do the talking. 📺 This is Episode 227 of the Summer Fondue Sessions radioshow, originally an audio‑only show, now in the video format → watch this mix on YT at https://www.youtube.com/@summerfondue 🌐 More information and show archive with tracklists → https://www.summerfondue.com 🙏🏼 Please support the artists making this great music: follow them, stream their work, and buy their releases to help keep the scene thriving!

Familiar hooks, fresh beats. For this week’s episode, we’re exploring that beautiful friction between the '70s/'80s disco era and modern production. This is "Disco but Edits" — a deep dive into the world of disco re-edits and nu-disco reimagining. I’ve put together a selection of tracks that pay homage to the legends (think Stephanie Mills, Whitney Houston, Chaka Khan, and Pino D'angio; don’t think Kiss and Technotronic, but they’re there, too) but through the lens of modern producers. 📺 This is Episode 226 of the Summer Fondue Sessions radioshow, originally an audio‑only show, now in the video format → watch this mix on YT at https://www.youtube.com/@summerfondue 🌐 More information and show archive with tracklists → https://www.summerfondue.com 🙏🏼 Please support the artists making this great music: follow them, stream their work, and buy their releases to help keep the scene thriving!

In this week’s episode: sweet classic soulful & vocal house, and 100% DJ Soulmate vibes. :) From 2003 to 2007, soulful house had a special kind of magic - piano-driven hooks, live percussion, and proper songs with full vocal arrangements. I’m playing some of my favorite gems from the era, including tracks from Richard Earnshaw, Jamie Lewis, Roberto De Carlo and Rasmus Faber. Whether you remember these from the first time around, or you’re discovering this side of house for the first time, I hope this mix brings a little sunshine to your speakers. 📺 This is Episode 225 of the Summer Fondue Sessions radioshow, originally an audio‑only show, now in the video format → watch this mix on YT at https://www.youtube.com/@summerfondue 🌐 More information and show archive with tracklists → https://www.summerfondue.com 🙏🏼 Please support the artists making this great music: follow them, stream their work, and buy their releases to help keep the scene thriving!

After years of strictly soulful house, I'm exploring sounds that feel like the perfect natural evolution for Summer Fondue. So in this week's episode we're doing another fusion of Modern Funk, Nu-Boogie, and Nu-Disco with soulful edits. We're traveling from the West Coast synth-funk of E. Live and B. Bravo to the chic disco-infused streets of Paris with Yuksek and L'Impératrice, while keeping our roots in place with George Benson and Róisín Murphy. It's soulful, it's groovy, and it's got that heavy 80s synth DNA with a fresh, sophisticated edge. 📺 This is Episode 224 of the Summer Fondue Sessions radioshow, originally an audio‑only show, now in the video format → watch this mix on YT at https://www.youtube.com/@summerfondue 🌐 More information and show archive with tracklists → https://www.summerfondue.com 🙏🏼 Please support the artists making this great music: follow them, stream their work, and buy their releases to help keep the scene thriving!

For this episode, I’m digging into the sounds that first made me fall in love with house music. It's all about that cozy classic soulful feeling: warm Rhodes chords, vocals from legends like Lisa Shaw and Barbara Tucker, and that unmistakable sun-drenched groove.

Press play and feel the glow. 📺 This is Episode 223 of the Summer Fondue Sessions radioshow, originally an audio‑only show, now in the video format → watch this mix on YT at https://www.youtube.com/@summerfondue 🌐 More information and show archive with tracklists → https://www.summerfondue.com 🙏🏼 Please support the artists making this great music: follow them, stream their work, and buy their releases to help keep the scene thriving!

This is a journey that connects the soulful roots of Summer Fondue with the nu-disco sounds I’ve been obsessed with lately. We start off smooth and sophisticated with some deeper vibes honoring that classic soulful house spirit. As the session heats up, we move into the groove with some heavy-hitting funky house and disco reworks. And to close it out, I’ve put together a Paradisco finale that really captures where my head is at right now: retro-modern, funky, and full of life. It’s a mix designed for that 'golden hour' transition - a pre-party before the night officially begins, or simply soundtracking a perfect late-afternoon lounge session. 📺 This is Episode 222 of the Summer Fondue Sessions radioshow, originally an audio‑only show, now in the video format → watch this mix on YT at https://www.youtube.com/@summerfondue 🌐 More information and show archive with tracklists → https://www.summerfondue.com 🙏🏼 Please support the artists making this great music: follow them, stream their work, and buy their releases to help keep the scene thriving!

This time, it’s all about that sophisticated swinging jazzy house sound. The selection leans heavily into its jazz roots: live brass, saxophone loops, snappy Rhodes pianos, and that unmistakable Parisian energy. It’s the groove that happens when house music meets jazz culture. Urban, classy, and built for those who love a bit of soul in their 4/4 beats, the mix builds from smooth deep-jazz openers into high-energy funk-infused cuts → designed to keep you moving without losing that soulful touch. From the streets of Paris to the Miami heat, this is the sound of the jazzy underground. 📺 This is Episode 221 of the Summer Fondue Sessions radioshow, originally an audio‑only show, now in the video format → watch this mix on YT at https://www.youtube.com/@summerfondue 🌐 More information and show archive with tracklists → https://www.summerfondue.com 🙏🏼 Please support the artists making this great music: follow them, stream their work, and buy their releases to help keep the scene thriving!
