aMo (um) steps into the Spotlight with ‘HOTS 4 U’ riding high

Birmingham roots, Ibiza miles, and a record doing serious damage this summer.

Today’s Spotlight Mix comes from aMo (um), a DJ, producer and long-time selector with more than two decades in the game. From pirate radio and rave culture through to residencies across Birmingham, Europe and Ibiza, his sound has always carried a proper club backbone. These days, he sits deep in the house and minimal pockets, stripped back, rolling, and built with that 90s pressure still tucked under the bonnet.

It also lands at a big moment. aMo (um) has just linked with long-time friend Chris Lorenzo on ‘HOTS 4 U’, out now on tszr as the label’s landmark 100th release. The track has already been hammered by Jamie Jones, Peggy Gou, Michael Bibi, Mau P, Dom Dolla, Chris Lake, Fisher, Prospa, Josh Baker and more, and it is easy to hear why. Snapping drums, acid bite, a filthy bassline and those samples doing exactly what they need to do.

The mix follows the same line. Traumer, Miroloja & Olivier Romero, Lee Burton, Dumitrescu and more all get worked into a tight, groove-led session, with ‘HOTS 4 U’ landing right where it should. Basements, terraces, afters, whatever room is still moving.

Grahame Farmer’s love affair with electronic music goes back to the mid-90s when he first began to venture into the UK’s beloved rave culture, finding himself interlaced with some of the country’s most seminal club spaces. A trip to dance music’s anointed holy ground of Ibiza in 1997 then cemented his sense of purpose and laid the foundations for what was to come over the next few decades of his marriage to the music industry.
