It so rarely works correctly that I notice when it does work (HBO does surprisingly well at this).

I know it has a 0.02% chance of happening, but I would love to see that documentary one day.
And obviously I enjoyed the use of Here Comes Your Man as they prepped for graduation in ‘89.
This has got to be the Monday-ish Friday on record.

Honorable Mention goes out to @hdmixtapes.bsky.social - if you aren’t following them here (and on YouTube), I am about to improve your quality of life. They are using the internet the right way to preserve these old tapes. The archive is DEEP, and they keep adding to it.

Finally, the “at Fabric” series has some wonderful stuff. This three hour (!) mix by Cinthe from 2024 is a LONG house journey worth taking.

For the history buffs, Apple has this archival series with DJ sets from the dawn of the rave era at the Haçienda. Search “at the Haçienda” to find ‘em. They are crazy! Here Mike Pickering and Graeme Park set the foundation for the next 20+ years of partying in ‘89.

The Warehouse Project mixes can also be wonderful. TSHA dropped a slammer of a mix late last year and I’ve enjoyed this one many times in 2025.

Let’s also remember “Beats in Space,” Apple’s show hosted by Tim Sweeney. This show is hit-or-miss for me, but the Soulwax “I 💛 NY” mix from this year was a definite hit. Soulwax always makes me smile and shake my hips. The Haai episode from this year was also nuts.

Another one to seek out is the “Early Hours” series, also exclusive to Apple. These tend to be very unique. I’ve been closely following Logic 1000 for a few years and this mix is perfect, chill atmospheric house. Check her 2025 DJ Kicks mix, an ambient journey.

Apple has a show called “Chemistry Radio” that includes some great mixes. I love Kelly Lee Owens, so I’ll share that one. KLO goes on a two hour journey, so buckle in. I don’t want to spoil the Aaliyah mix she drops, but it blows my mind every time.

Yes, this one scratches a very specific itch in my techno music upbringing, but this 2023 mix from Josh Wink is very great. It is 100% what you would expect from Wink and I am 100% okay with that.

Apple also has some mixes from the annual Movement Festival in Detroit, and there are some gems. Search “at Movement” to find them. I kept returning to this DJ Tennis ‘22 mix this year, a fun genre-spanning ride. Don’t miss the Carl Craig/Jon Dixon mix from ‘23 too.

I also adore this year’s NYE mix from Shy FX. He deftly blends old school and new school Drum & Bass in a way that will get you screaming “rewind!” Heck, he drops both “Pulp Fiction” and “Original Nuttah,” so you know he had a blast making this. Lighters Up!
music.apple.com/us/album/nye...
Apple posts exclusive New Years Eve mixes each year (they remain available, search “NYE <year>” going back to 2021 to find them all, there are LOTS). This year’s mix from Derrick Carter is incredible—a certified house masterpiece.

I have no regrets switching from Spotify to Apple Music a few years back. On top of just sounding better, Apple has a crazy amount of DJ sets available to stream. Here are ten of my favorites from this year (only a few from 2025, but all new to me this year). 🧵 #djmixes
