Hailing from New Jersey, Mike Simonetti's influence is far and wide. As headman behind Troubleman Unlimited and Italians Do It Better labels he's put out records that have often been a preview of sounds to come. As a DJ he's been responsible for some frenzied and famed nights of fun - and of course dancing. While on the production front, earlier this year he released his debut album 'Capricorn Rising'.

We've been long-time fans of Simonetti's and we're pretty chuffed he's delivered a Modcast this week.

San Franciscan quartet Wooden Shjips are the masters of spaced out psychedelic rock. We've been vibing their sounds from their remix work (with people like our very own Canyons), to their most recent full-length album 'West'. So we were pretty curious to see what they would do with a Modcast mix.

In their words, this is a mix of "contemporary music that we are currently grooving to." This is definitely one to put on and let time flow.

Catch Wooden Shjips' Ripley Johnson on tour in Australia later this month with his side-project Moon Duo. Dates are below.
