Mix of the Week: YokoO

---

Ambient sounds and dark layers - XLR8R’s 391 edition presents YokoO’s mix.

YokoO is no stranger to house music, with his lavish sense of style and grace throughout his song choices – YokoO dedicates himself to a blend of pondering baselines and warm synths throughout his songs.

YokoO’s 391 edition mix for XLR8R combines ambient sounds and dark layers presenting an alluring set of atmospheric and floor-aimed techno interpretations.

Featuring traces of songs such as the famous ‘Anabel’ by Luc Angenehm and a deeper progressive house track, ‘Looped’ by Kiasmos. YokoO’s full groove based approach to seductive house music turns heads with similar vibes to Hamburg/Berlin duo Kollektiv Turnstrasse and Andhim.

Getting you in track for Spring, take a seat, sit back and enjoy yourself a glass of wine to this purely sensational #lovemaking mix.

Some words from XLR8R: "[...] And then there's this podcast. It's one of the most scrumptious, gorgeous sets that XLR8R has run in recent months—which, consider we've hosted mixes from the likes of Laurent Garnier, Audiofly, Dance Spirit, Fort Romeau and Virginia lately, is saying quite a bit. As YokoO explains in the video, the session's emotions run the gamut from joy to sadness, love and loneliness and back again, its soothing passages punctuated with moments of pure drama. In short, it's a musically rich hour of listening pleasure. Our suggestion: Grab a glass of wine (or whatever) and settle in for a while."
