The Beatportal Residency: When Stars Align & Samantha Loveridge

This week’s Beatportal Residency turns its gaze skyward with When Stars Align — the forward-thinking label founded by Grammy-nominated duo CamelPhat. Known for its emotive, cinematic take on house and techno, the label has quickly earned a reputation for championing producers who lean into atmosphere, melody, and depth — artists who aren’t afraid to blur the lines between the dancefloor and the mind’s eye.

Since launching, When Stars Align has become a home for some of the most compelling voices in melodic and progressive electronic music. Built on CamelPhat’s vision for a more expansive and emotionally resonant sound, the label stands as a beacon for those seeking more than just functionality in club music — it’s about storytelling, tension, release, and resonance.

Stepping into the mix this week is UK-born DJ and producer Samantha Loveridge, whose ascent has been nothing short of meteoric. With releases on labels like Stil Vor Talent, Anjunadeep, and of course, When Stars Align, Loveridge has become synonymous with deep, immersive sound journeys. Her sets balance precision with intuition, blending stirring chord progressions, vocal textures, and crisp rhythmic frameworks that keep dancefloors locked in both heart and motion.

Her Beatportal Residency mix is a reflection of both her own creative identity and the ethos of the label she represents — a seamless blend of introspection and intensity, guided by a DJ who knows how to hold a mood and move a crowd. It’s not just a mix — it’s a moment.
