Max HeyraudThis week’s Mix of the Week is a powerhouse entry from Dublin house music stalwart George Feely, who takes us on a high-energy journey through acid, disco, rave, and other jackin’ flavours via Peggy Gou’s revered label, Gudu Records.
A George Feely and Peggy Gou link-up wasn’t on our 2024 bingo card, but we couldn’t be more elated to see it unfold. Feely has long been one of Ireland’s finest house music exports, consistently delivering top-tier releases and stand-out DJ sets. This mix feels like a well-deserved moment of recognition for Feely, who has spent over a decade making his mark on the Irish circuit and beyond. Now, with this mix on Gudu Records as well as other coveted releases coming his way, he’s finally getting the flowers he’s earned after countless late nights and tireless dedication to his craft.
Lately, George Feely has been garnering well-deserved attention with esteemed releases on labels like Hot Haus, Nervous Records, and Shall Not Fade. Known for his unmatched ability to craft sets and tracks specifically tailored for the dancefloor, Feely brings palpable energy to every mix—and this one is no exception, further cementing his name as one for the future in the global house circuit.
George’s GuduMix captures everything he’s been perfecting over the past decade, now showcased on a much larger stage. It’s a masterclass in energy flow, shifting seamlessly from ecstatic, rave-ready anthems to chic, French-inspired house, chunky Chicago grooves, smokey Detroit rollers, and more. As always, George proves he’s not only an impeccable selector but also an exceptionally skilled DJ, gliding between tracks with ease, phrasing each transition perfectly, and adding that unmistakable Feely flair that the Irish scene has adored for years. This mix embodies what house music is truly about—pure joy, soulful impact, and, most importantly, fun.
