KEXP's weekly guest DJ mix show is a multi-genre program featuring eclectic sets by a rotating cast of local, national, and international DJs and artists. Every late Sunday night at midnight, a guest DJ outside of KEXP's on-air talent will take you on an hour-long journey through their record collection to showcase their unique sonic vision of a Midnight In A Perfect World.

quickly, quickly is the solo project of Portland-based musician Graham Jonson, a versatile artist who's early offerings showcased his talents as an underground lo-fi beats producer, and he's since blossomed into a bonafide singer/songwriter/producer creating "hi-fi yet homespun" psych-pop music that's both magnetic and unpredictable. He'll be releasing his second full-length album I Heard That Noise on April 18th via the venerable American label Ghostly International Records.
Originally emerging in the 1990s as one-half of the acclaimed duo Charles & Eddie, Oakland-born, LA-based artist Eddie Chacon has been crafting a thoughtful strain of R&B and soul music for decades now. Since resurfacing in 2020 with his debut album Pleasure, Joy And Happiness, Eddie has paved a new path as an introspective solo artist, recently unveiling his third solo album Lay Low that was produced by Nick Hakim and released on Stones Throw Records.
Sasha is the alias of legendary Welsh DJ/producer Alexander Paul Coe, an iconic figure in the 1990s trance and progressive house community who was behind the first major commercially released studio-produced DJ mix, Renaissance: The Mix Collection, that was created in collaboration with his longtime DJ partner, John Digweed. Now based in Spain, Sasha stays active as both an artist, recently releasing his latest solo album Da Vinci Genius in November 2024, and running his own label, Last Night on Earth.
anaiis is a London-based French-Senegalese artist who has been exploring a soulful, sublime, organic R&B sound since making her debut in 2018. Her most recent offering was a collaboration with Grupo Cosmo, a Brazilian trio composed of Biel Basile, Sessa & Marcelo Cabral. Their gorgeous self-titled mini-album was released late last year and it harmoniously paired anaiis' lush, folky, intimate R&B with Grupo Cosmo’s exceptionally warm arrangements informed by bossa nova, 70s psychedelic, and Tropicália styles.
A/S/L is the alias of a mysterious LA-based DJ/producer creating infectious, shimmery, kaleidoscopic dance music. Last year, he released the addictive EP Signs of Romance and he's been trickling out singles since then in anticipation of his forthcoming Live From Selby EP that's set to drop this spring.
