Midnight in a Perfect World: Barry Can't Swim

Barry Can't Swim is the moniker of Edinburgh-born, London-based electronic producer Joshua Mainnie. He's been making waves over the past three years with an incredible run of singles and EPs that fuse cutting-edge club rhythms with organic elements and a magnetic pop streak. Following the success of his early self-released singles, he's gone on to release EPs on premier UK labels Shall Not Fade and Technicolor Records, and he's gearing up to release his expansive debut full-length album When Will We Land? via Ninja Tune Records on October 20th.

Barry Can't Swim's exclusive guest DJ mix for Midnight in a Perfect World is an instant party-starting affair featuring addictive disco and house cuts that deceptively span decades. Seamlessly mixed and packed with deep cuts, Barry Can't Swim confidently showcases his love for club music that's propulsive, soulful, and anthemic.

This multi-genre program features eclectic sets by a rotating cast of international and local DJ's, each building upon a party vibe to kick off your weekend. Midnight in a Perfect World  is made possible with support from New Belgium Brewing.
