Grounded 021 with DR SILUÉ is a blessing. As part of the Shai family, he understands the space as deeply as anyone, and it shows. The mix is an intricate, explorative dance through afro-jazz, dub, and deep house – flowing in a way that only makes sense once you’re in it. True to Dr Silué’s style, there’s warmth, depth, and just the right amount of bass. A unique take on Grounded, and one we’re thankful for.

📍 Recorded live at Shai Space – our intimate venue in Peckham, South East London.
We started Shai in 2024 to bring people together through music, creativity and connection. Every other Friday, we host Listening Sessions where DJs explore slower, more intentional sounds for a seated crowd, cup of tea in hand.

The Grounded series is our attempt to bottle that experience and share it beyond the room. If you want the full experience, join us in person:
