Born Dirty steps up for the latest Data Transmission podcast with a mix that moves through the many corners of his sound. The Dirtybird artist has been part of the global club circuit for over a decade, releasing on labels like Mad Decent, OWSLA, Fool’s Gold and Armada while building a catalogue that slips between house, techno, breaks and bass.

“Made this 10 years ago and I remember thinking back it was such a vibe and so different, we just needed to find the right label for it. Dirtybird was on my list. Funny how life works. It’s finally landed exactly where it was meant to!” – Born Dirty

The mix feels like a snapshot of that journey. It’s packed with Born Dirty originals, remixes and collaborations, including cuts with option4, Shift K3Y, Bellecour and Alina Pash, alongside reworks of Valentino Khan, Go Freak and Will Clarke. His new Dirtybird single ‘Trippy Boys Trippy Girls’ also lands in the tracklist, sitting neatly among a run of exclusive IDs and club cuts that show the hybrid energy he talks about in the interview.

Think throwback flavours, club heat and a few unreleased surprises along the way. Exactly the kind of ride you’d expect from someone who’s spent years bending house music into his own shape.
