Does anyone know the name of this song? 🖤

You know this is going to be a good mix when the opening song is your planned wedding song

From the archives, a live two-hour warm up for the living legend back in 2019. I raided the personal favourite deep house vaults for this one.

So that was the final night at the Paradise Farage. Sadly the club has had to be closed down, demolished and the site turned into a giant lorry park as a result of Brexit. For our last show, we travelled to Ray Mang's studio and streamed live from deepest East London with Mr Mang himself, a Leftside Wobble guest mix and me. Enjoy and thanks so much for all the support I've received over the past 15 months, it's really appreciated. 

If you fancy coming to see myself and Raj play together in the actual flesh, we're playing at Alfresco festival in Kent on August bank holiday weekend. Ticket details here:

Solid Steel (31st October) We're delighted to welcome Danilo Plessow aka Motor City Drum Ensemble in Hour 1 this week. His productions have appeared many times on Solid Steel over the years, (including his previous project Inverse Cinematics) and his DJ sets are always well received. For this mix it's straight in with a quality soul and disco selection, before moving into house from the deeper end of the spectrum. No track list available, so definitely one for the diggers and this is what he said;

"Heres a little mix i did for Ninja Tune`s Solid Steel radio show. Recorded at my house in Amsterdam on the DJR400, 100% original vinyl, one take. Hope u enjoy.
Danilo / MCDE"

We asked Dublin based @JimmyRouge to select his favourite summer tracks and the result was a lush two-hour long mix, which will make these early spring days feel like summer already. 

Jimmy is well-known for his DJ sets in the Dublin nightlife, but he's recently taken his musical career to new heights by founding his very own record label, Orange Tree Edits. The label has seen two EP releases so far, and both of them have already caused quite the buzz with support support from DJs like Hunee, Motor City Drum Ensemble, Session Victim and Peggy Gou.

This is a mix of music I made this past summer for Disk Union.  It is generally the first half of my set from Sunset Campout 2010 in Belden California.

Eddie C - Sunrise Set (DJ Mix for Disk Union)

I first met Andrew Weatherall about 15 years ago when he played for us at Autodisco in Dundee. Dave Bowie, who I ran the night with, was a good friend of his. I had to pick him up at the airport and as always he turned up looking like a maverick man of style and attitude while demanding instant hashish. Half way through the journey he said something like this ‘Barrington (I had never been called this before but immediately took to it) my nicotine habit way exceeds the length of this current journey’ and I told him he was welcome to spark up. For years afterwards my kids used to say when they smelt cigarette smoke in the car, ‘has Andrew Weatherall been in town?’.
 
Weatherall played for us many times at Autodisco and then I started doing the ALFOS nights in Dundee with him and Sean. To be honest I loved what Sean did for Andrew. I think he allowed him to play a load of non-techno music that he had been wanting to express (again) for years.
 
I remember having a real promoter moment early on at the first ALFOS night in Dundee when someone was carried out of the packed dance floor around 11.30pm…I thought shit, what’s it going to be like at 3am!!!
 
As well as doing nights together in my city we spent quite a bit of time hanging out at festivals in the summer whether on sun beds in Croatia, stone boats in North Wales, caravans in Glastonbury or wherever.
 
I have to say he was one of those guys that kind of taught you how to do things properly. How to be a good guy. How to be a good DJ. I will not forget that. You always seemed to learn things around Andrew as well as laugh your tits off.
 
Anyway I am digressing…back to the current story.
 
For years as blanket-bombing digital promotion in dance music took hold, Andrew was the only guy I knew who preferred the personal touch to emails. So I used to text or call him on the blower and send him regular CDs of our latest stuff. He liked a hard copy. The stuff I sent was from the various labels we ran over the years and sometimes just random bits and pieces we made for DJing, which I thought he might like. After all Andrew playing it really meant something.
 
I called these CDs ‘Weatherall’s Bits’ which seemed to amuse him.
 
Anyway, recently during the non-stop lockdowns I have been switching my music over from an old laptop to a new one and I came across the ‘Weatherall’s Bits’ playlists on my itunes.
 
I cried when Andrew died. I heard about it at the airport and I cried. We didn’t know each other so well. But he was really kind and considerate to me as a producer, a promoter and a fellow human being. He encouraged me and always got back to me about my tracks. And he just seemed to have a real significance as a character in the generation of producers and DJs that he led by default, charisma and good taste.
 
He also did something that very few people do these days. He would pick a track out that no one else would play and he would make it his. He would play it until people got it. I loved that.
 
Anyway faced with deleting these playlists – ‘Weatherall’s Bits’ - I decided, as I hadn’t made any tribute to Andrew, to make a mix out of them. Mainly because I realised that, as often was the case with Andrew, he made me try to be better than I was. And the tracks I sent him were probably better than the ones I played. I certainly tried to send him the good stuff. If you thought Weatherall would like it then that was a good sign. And you always knew he would pick up on stuff other people would ignore.
 
I also just wanted to remember once more and it brought back a flood of memories doing this mix.
 
So here it is. This is my tribute to a lovely, funny, creative and truly inspiring man.
 
Cheers mate and thank you.

I hope you enjoy it.
 
Love Barrington x
