Jazz Neversleeps’ exclusive mix

Brussels-based DJ Jazz Neversleeps, signed by On-point, is known for excessive genre-hopping that explores all corners of the dancefloor. Heavy tracks such as 'Diepgank', are played in renowned clubs like Berlin's Berghain, but with this Word-exclusive Valentine's mix, he reveals a bit of his softer side. It's a trip into soul, funk, disco and boogie, or "One to cruise to, alone, or with your loved one", according to the artist. Scroll down for the full interview and have a listen to his 'Hard On Your Love' mix.

Can you describe this mix in a couple of words?

One to cruise to, alone, or with your loved one. Although I like symbols, I’m not a Valentine person. It’s nice to give attention to the one you love when they least expect it. A cliché, but true.

When and where did you record it?

Last week, about 250 miles from my fiancée.

What is your favourite track on it?

All of them… Although I’d say a tie between Kleeer / Never Cry Again and Larry Heard / Another Night. Both songs are heavenly sex. Oh lawd!

What do you have coming up in the next few weeks?

Next vinyl EP on the On-Point mothership. Bi-monthly residency at Club Up in Amsterdam starting in March. Participating in the RBMA Bass Camp in March and right after that, London.
