HARD founder Gary Richards, also known as Destructo (and Captain D while on the high seas), checked in from Miami to provide a Guest Playlist of some of his favorite acts onboard this weekend.
Disclosure – “You & Me (Flume Remix)”
“Two of my favorites in the game right now. Both are Holy Ship alumni. Classic tune perfect for sailing the high seas. Feels for days here.”
Duke Dumont – “The Giver”
“We just came off tour together in Australia and it’s time to reunite with the house guru on Holy Ship. Every time the Duke drops this, it’s a serious dance party going on.”
CJ Bolland – “Sugar is Sweeter (Armand Van Helden Remix)”
“All time classic. This will be Armand’s second time on Holy Ship. I really feel he is one of the top all time producers in the genre – so many classic club tunes were made by this man. All praise Armand Van Helden, a true legend.”
Shiba San – “I Like Your Booty”
“Shiba San is an up and coming producer in the club world from Paris, France. He has put out banger after banger recently and we are so lucky to have him on board as a virgin this year. “Okay” was one of the top tunes of 2014 and his remixes and edits always slam. Can’t wait to see what he serves up in 2015.”
Destructo – “Dare You 2 Move”
“I dare everyone to move their ass on the ship this year. This is my new single with Problem off the West Coast EP. If this tune does not make you move, you may be deaf. See you on the Divina this weekend.”
