#004 — LUCKY LUBE
Lucky Lube is the pseudonym of Carlo Molino — an Italian-born, Copenhagen-based DJ committed to nursing dance-floor fetishes for hedonism and euphoria. Whether he's burning through trance, breaks or fast-paced diva house, you can always count on Lucky Lube for melodic, bouncy catharsis.
He's also the co-founder of Group Therapy, a series of safer-space-oriented raves, and half of the duo Carlo and Selma. Lucky Lube has as many vibes as he does aliases, but one thing's for sure: he'll kick-start a slippery, rapturous dance-floor — no matter what.
The intention is to give people a taste of what’s been spinning in my head and ears lately. It’s also an homage to the many talented friends and producers I respect and look up to (such as LUXE, Eoin DJ, 131bpm, Bashkka & more), where I’ve mixed their tracks with some classic floor tear-jerkers.
The mood is spiritual mysticism on a hot dance floor when the moon is in Scorpio.
I’ve constructed this mix to recreate the journey of a sweaty dancefloor from start to close in just over an hour.
My style is like my ADHD: cheeky, unpredictable and quick to adapt to a room’s energy.
Genre-wise, it’s rooted in house music with a touch of prog, breaks and 90s infused with gay anthems and a bit of diva & pop.
I started DJing as a means of self-expression and a testament to my love for house music. I am driven by the desire to create spaces truly free from daily societal norms. This is what I strive to do as co-founder of Group Therapy: I’m happiest when at closing hour, someone comes around to tell me, “thank you, this was the first party in town where I felt comfortable dancing naked.” I live for that!
The future looks FUN!
Don’t want to spoil anything major yet but many more Group Therapy collabs are springing all over the place. Plus, I’m playing with Selma in Oslo and London, and more is coming up on a solo level overseas very soon <3
Personally, I’m deep diving into music production together with Téa (local legend) and self-learning music composition for visual media.
