UK-based producer and DJ Lloyd Barwood joins the Super Progressive podcast for an in-depth conversation about one of the most exciting rises in the progressive house scene right now. Fresh off landing the number one spot on Beatport with "Nothing Like It Was" [0:11], released on Sasha's Last Night on Earth label, Lloyd opens up about the journey behind the track, how it was written specifically for a set where he handed the decks over to Sasha [1:23], and how it ultimately became one of the most-played tracks in Sasha's sets over the past six months [2:12].Lloyd shares the inspiring reality that his number one hit was made in his spare bedroom [3:55]. He reflects on the surreal experience of going back to back with his all-time favorite DJ, Sasha, for the very first time [28:53], and describes the unforgettable moment at Balance Croatia 2026 when Hernan Cattaneo walked out of a meet and greet mid-set just to come say hello and raise his hand to the crowd [10:12].The conversation also dives into the creative advice Sasha gave Lloyd about locking into his signature sound [26:09], the pressures of balancing a full-time day job with a rapidly accelerating music career [14:45], and the tight-knit crew of friends and family who travel with him every step of the way [32:54].Videographer David Lovas also joins the episode to share behind-the-scenes stories about filming some of the most memorable clips of Lloyd's music being played by the world's top DJs, including a standout continuous clip of Anthony Pappa and Dave Seaman dropping the Lloyd and Medway collaboration at Balance [21:57].Looking ahead, Lloyd discusses his signing to the Analog agency, upcoming releases on Selador, and his ultimate goal of going full-time as an artist [37:42].

In this episode of the Super Progressive Podcast, hosts SP and David sit down with Melbourne-based DJ and producer Mike Rish fresh off a grueling but rewarding seven-week European tour [1:26]. Mike walks through his journey from playing Nom in Barcelona to the Super Progressive Boat Party at Balance Croatia, Loveland in Amsterdam, and closing out in Manchester with Jamie Stevens [3:48], sharing what it means to go full-time with music and why face-to-face connections in this scene are worth their weight in gold.The conversation goes deep into Mike's distinctly groove-driven DJ style, a constant, elastic tension that layers tracks and builds dance floors without relying on long breakdowns [12:13], and how years of experience have sharpened his instincts behind the decks [10:04]. He opens up about the influences that shape his sound, from 90s hip-hop vocal samples and Dub Techno to Depeche Mode to Eric Prydz, whose technical mastery and independent spirit Mike credits as a defining inspiration [27:40].Mike also pulls back the curtain on Tornn Records, his independent label where there are no promo campaigns, no guest lists, and no release schedules forced by outside pressure [42:35]. He explains why the music should speak for itself, why follower counts mean nothing to him when evaluating demos [37:12], and why underground music was never meant to be force-fed to an audience [38:09].Rounding out the episode, Mike previews an exciting slate of upcoming shows including Sri Lanka, South America, and beyond [53:56], and the gang shares their thoughts on Balance versus ADE and why the progressive scene's tight-knit community -- especially out of Melbourne -- continues to punch far above its weight [49:32].

Meanwhile label bosses GMJ & Matter join the podcast to teach us what Mad Monday is really all about and they share their honest thoughts about Balance Croatia (00:00:00 - 00:29:30). Then David Lovas joins the podcast to discuss seeing Underworld over the weekend while SP gives his review of Simon Vuarambon's Los Angeles gig. Then they dive into their own full Balance Recap (00:29:31 - 01:46:50).Follow Super Progressive to stay up to date on the latest progressive house news: https://www.instagram.com/superprogressive/?hl=enSubscribe to Super Progressive on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/c/SuperProgressive
