Select 347: Looswing
This week on Select, Beirut-based DJ and producer Looswing delivers a deep, rolling house mix full of soulful cuts and swinging rhythms, shaped by Detroit roots and a sharp ear for sampling.

This week on Select, we hand it over to Beirut-based DJ, producer, and label head Looswing, whose mix delivers an hour of groove-heavy, deep house cuts that speak to a lifelong love for digging and a deep connection to the genre’s roots.
Born Elio Abdo, Looswing's style reflects his musical upbringing at the cultural intersection of Beirut and his spiritual ties to Detroit and Chicago’s house legacies. With influences ranging from Theo Parrish and Boo Williams to Ras G and Nick Holder, his sets are grounded in classic underground energy, loop-driven, percussive, and always on a swing.
A co-founder of Paille Records and the edits-based collective Enfants Du Swing, Looswing brings both curation and experimentation to the forefront. This mix, recorded between Beirut and Riyadh, leans into rolling basslines and carefully chopped samples - true to his name, you’ll hear swinging hats from start to finish.
Track IDs include 'Blue' (Joss Moog – Cobra Edits), Jimpster’s soulful 'You Got My Love', and 'Yes or Not' by Tuccillo, all stitched together with ease and intention.
