Melé on Miami Music Week, Boiler Room & 15 Years in Dance Music
Melé joins Loud & Unfiltered for an honest conversation about creativity, anxiety, longevity and evolving through electronic music culture. From growing up on the Wirral and initially falling in love with Hip Hop before discovering dance music through Sasha, Digweed and The Prodigy, to becoming one of the UK’s most respected electronic artists, Melé reflects on the moments that shaped his journey. The conversation explores his infamous Boiler Room set and the impact it had on his career at just 18 years old, moving from Liverpool to Miami, the pressures of staying relevant 15 years into the industry, and learning to become more present rather than constantly chasing the next milestone. Melé also discusses writing his new album in Miami, experimenting with broader vinyl sets, using Ableton as a live creative tool, memories of Miami Music Week and Defected at The Sagamore, as well as the realities of balancing passion, anxiety and longevity within modern dance music culture.

Recorded at the Sagamore Hotel during Miami Music Week ahead of his B2B set with Olive F at the Defected Pool Party, house music legend Harry Romero joins Loud & Unfiltered for a deep dive into his journey through dance music culture.

The conversation explores his memories of the iconic Magic Sessions with Louie Vega, seeing Daft Punk in Miami during the 90s, the resurgence of Nervous Records, the legacy of Subliminal, and his long-standing relationship with Defected. Harry also discusses balancing creativity and longevity as an artist, why he still approaches music like a student, the reasoning behind his many aliases, and how modern audiences are reconnecting with the roots and history of house music.

Before Algorithms, How DJs Built the Underground Scene | Jonathan Cowan
Welcome to the very first episode of Inside Miami - a new series exploring the people, stories and culture that helped shape one of the world’s most influential electronic music cities. Before streaming platforms and social media algorithms changed dance music forever, DJs discovered records in clubs, traded white labels in person, and built scenes from the ground up. In this episode, Miami nightlife legend Jonathan Cowan reflects on the golden era of underground music culture - from the early days of vinyl digging and unpredictable club nights to unforgettable moments with artists like DJ Jazzy Jeff, Luciano, Loco Dice and more. Jonathan shares stories from the rise of Miami’s electronic music scene, how travel and entertainment shaped his path, and why real-world music discovery created a completely different energy in club culture during the 90s and early 2000s.

Inside SXM Festival: Elderbrook on DJ vs Live Sets, SXM Festival, Songwriting Process & Life as a Global Electronic Artist
In this episode of Inside SXM Festival, we sit down with Elderbrook — singer, producer and globally recognised electronic music artist — to unpack how he approaches performing, writing and touring at the highest level. Recorded in Saint Martin during SXM Festival, this conversation dives into how Elderbrook prepares for completely different environments — from sunset sets on a mountain stage to late-night club performances — and why every show requires its own unique energy and curation. We explore the key differences between his live show and DJ sets, including how he uses his voice as an instrument, builds looping performances in real time, and balances playing his own music with other artists’ tracks. Elderbrook also shares insight into his songwriting process — why he now focuses on speed and instinct over perfection, how collaboration helps unlock creativity, and why spending too long on a track doesn’t necessarily make it better. Along the way, the conversation touches on touring life, playing unique venues around the world, discovering electronic music, and how early club experiences shaped his journey into becoming a global artist.

Inside SXM Festival: &Friends, From Coachella to SXM Festival — DJ Culture, Wellness, Touring Life & Building a Global Sound
In this episode, we sit down with &Friends, DJ, producer and global collaborator to explore the reality of life inside the electronic music industry, from playing stages like Coachella to performing at SXM Festival. Recorded live on the island of Saint Martin, this conversation goes beyond music. It’s about mindset, wellness, creativity and staying grounded in an industry that moves faster than ever. &Friends shares how journaling became a key part of his creative process, why slowing down is essential in a fast-paced touring lifestyle, and how chasing “more, more, more” can quietly disconnect artists from why they started in the first place. We also dive into the philosophy behind the &Friends project — a collaborative, global approach to music that blends influences from the Middle East, Africa, Europe and beyond. From working with vocalists around the world to building a unique sound rooted in emotion, rhythm and storytelling, this is a masterclass in modern electronic music creativity. Along the way, we explore festival culture, the SXM experience, and what it really means to create connection through music — whether that’s playing intimate rooms or closing major stages in front of thousands of people.
