In the Mix: The (James) Hype is real in this nonstop episode

Courtesy of the artist

Every Saturday night, In the Mix sets the vibe as DJ Kenny Perez mixes up the hottest sounds from the electronic dance music scene, bringing to the forefront some of Milwaukee's most talented DJs and producers.

If you’ve been anywhere near a dance floor lately, you already know James Hype is not playing around. The U.K.-born DJ and producer has built a reputation through his skills, high-energy sets and real crowd connection — all of which he brought to this episode.

As our guest DJ, Hype delivered a nonstop mix that hit exactly how it needed to: fast-paced, eclectic and packed with those signature transitions that remind you why he’s one of the most in-demand names in dance music. The energy never let up. It was just straight vibes from start to finish.

The timing couldn’t have been better with the release of his new single, “Be Mine,” another strong record that stays true to the club while continuing to push his sound forward. With that release setting the tone, Hype is gearing up to take this energy worldwide on his upcoming tour. If this episode is any indication, it’s about to go off. Tap into the mix, run up “Be Mine,” and keep an eye out for when he hits your city.

On top of that, we dove into some fresh heat across the show. I’m talking new music from Tom Rowlands of The Chemical Brothers, AURORA with their new project TOMORA, Born Dirty with the hard-hitting “Trippy Boy Trippy Girl,” and Memblem delivering a smooth one with Nia Nadurata on “Out Like This.” I dropped a new mix as well, so lock in and enjoy the ride.
