Old friends and hapless mavericks Ivan Smagghe and Nathan Gregory Wilkins present a fortnightly window into their ramshackle musical world. A show with absolutely no rules (as they'd only break them). We love the unmixable, old & new. We are oddballs and we love you.
Champeta on Cassette is a selection of rare, unreleased, and instrumental tracks that are essential to Cartagena’s champetúa culture. Producers like Raúl "Romy" Molina handed their music directly to picó owners, allowing fans to feel and learn the tracks before their official release. Cassettes were the pulse of Bazurto’s market and the underground bootlegging scene. This mix revives that raw, magnetic energy.

DJ and producer NIELS VAN GOGH has been touring the club scene all over the world for years. His career started at the Pleasure Domes in Augsburg as a resident DJ where he was wowing the crowd regularly with his sets.
His fan base grew quickly and he played countless gigs in clubs and on festivals like Tomorrowland, Mayday, Nature One, City Parade (Belgium), Rave on Snow, Energy, Street Parade (Switzerland) or Rave'n Cruise. But his big break-through was in 1998: His track „Pulverturm“ reached the Top 20 of best-selling singles in Germany and got international attention as well as a placement in the European charts. In Belgium „Pulverturm“ went Gold and over 20.000 vinyls were sold worldwide. The great success of Pulverturm was crowned with the German Dance Award 2000. Since then NIELS VAN GOGH was traveling around the globe for bookings in South Africa, Australia, Brasil, Paraguay, Thailand, Singapore, Russia, Israel and of course Europe.
Within a few years „Pulverturm“ became a club classic and in 2007 it was time for a remix. The new mix was an immediate success and hit number one of the European club charts. Almost every Top DJ was playing the track. In the following years NIELS VAN GOGH worked on many different projects, for example „City Sneakerz“ with Eric Smax and Thomas Gold which was released on the legendary Ministry of Sound label. Niels’ single „House Arrest“ became the soundtrack for the Chio Chips advertisement. His remix for Delirium feat. Sarah McLachlan - „Silence“ was not only an immediate number one hit of the European Club Charts but also on Beatport, the world’s biggest Download portal. As a result in 2009 he received the Beatport „Best Progressive House Track“ Award.
In the same year Niels signed with Scream & Shout Recordings. His first single released on this label, „Dreamer“, stayed in the Top 10 of club charts for weeks. Other cooperations with Ramon Zenker (aka Emilio Verdez) and the Global Deejays followed. Niels released many tracks on international labels like Spinnin´ Records, Cr2 and Doorn Records. He did remixes for Plastik Funk, Tom Novy, Milk & Sugar, Lissat & Voltaxx, Schiller, Tomcraft and many other artists. Furthermore NIELS VAN GOGH is responsible fort he succesfull compilations "We Love House" und „We Love Electro“.
Niels’ new single „Pullover“ which he released on Doorn Records earned full support from the international Top DJs like David Guetta, Dimitri Vegas & Like Mike, R3hab, Sander van Doorn, W&W, Swanky Tunes, Deniz Koyu, Thomas Gold, Dada Life, Fedde Le Grand, Bingo Players, Chuckie and many more … !!! „Pullover“ entered also the Top 10 of the DMC Charts in the UK.
