Listen to an expressive new mix from Helena Hauff
Helena Hauff’s mix for BBC Radio 3 is “more for the mind rather than the body”
Helena Hauff has released an eclectic mixtape for BBC Radio 3’s Late Junction.
The Hamburg DJ put it together with a lot of focus on the mix’s subtleties and emotional potential, with the intent of reflecting what she listens to at home. The selection is full of her favourite record store finds, including Yusef Lateef and Meredith Monk.
Hauff has moved away from her usual club mixes of hard-hitting, analogue techno to make room for eclectic selections of soul and jazz. “I just wanted to make something non-clubby, non-dancey because that’s what I normally do,” Hauff told the BBC.
