Ther Scottish electronic producer and DJ – real name Joshua Mainnie – will released the latest in the long-running and acclaimed artist-curated mix series on March 6, and you can pre-order ithere.
Late Night Tales launched in 2001 and has featured a glittering array of curators over the years, includingFour Tet,Fatboy Slim,Belle & Sebastian,MGMT,Metronomy,Franz Ferdinand,JonHopkinsandHot Chip.Mainnie’smix will be the first full entry in the series in five years and marks the start of its 25thanniversary year.

Otherwise, the mix will span the full range of energy and emotion associated with a classic night out, from the classic house of LanceDeSardi’s‘PowerOfSuggestion’ andDaniel AveryremixingFactory Floor, to the rich,delicate comedown of This Mortal Coil’s ‘The Lacemaker’.
Mainniehas said: “I was absolutely buzzing when I got asked to do Late Night Tales. Over the moon. It was such a significant thing for me.It’sa series that works consistently with reallygreat artists, so it felt like a massive privilege to evenbe considered to beamong the kind of people that Late Night Tales typically works with.”
“I have this Spotify playlistthat’scalled BarryCan’tCurate.I’dalways put electronic music and different things in there that maybe Iwouldn’tget to play in DJ sets. Late Night Tales is in the same world really – another place where you can share the music you love, but not necessarily musicyou’dplay on a dancefloor.”
