The art of the dinner set perfectly executed! 🍽🧡🎶 We are in love with the latest Tanscast from James Steer, recorded live during Friday dinner service at Colonial Tan’s last November. Well respected within the underground Melbourne DJ community, James has built a reputation as a selector who deftly balances exquisite taste with technical execution. Drawing from a vast, genre-defying collection, James’ sets offer the listener/dancer a guided tour through the fundamentals of depth, always evolving and never stagnant, a glimpse into the now, with a respectful nod to what’s come before.
