We have a real treat today. Over 2 years ago we approached one of the men who responsible for turning us into disco fiends. We really didn’t expect to receive a response and when we did we were both surprised and enthused. This man was Greg Wilson. Not only did Greg take the time to give us one of our first guestmixes but he also spent an hour on the phone to us giving us a really in-depth insight (below) into the scenes history and his origins as a Dj. Suffice to say we have the utmost respect for Greg who has always taken to time to ensure people accurately understand where these timeless tracks all came from and whats keeping them relevant.

Greg recently came down to play at one of our parties in London and has very kindly given us the recording of his live set to use as his second guestmix for us. We think you’ll agree that it cements his position as both an adventurous selector and a talented Dj. There is no tracklist for this one but that’s half the fun.

Fleetmac Wood VOL 6 Rumours Rave

For those who missed it I had the honour of joining acts such as the Allergies, Sam Redmore, Shaka Loves You & Skewiff amongst others in being asked to put together a 30 minute mix for Craig Charles Funk n Soul Show over on Radio 6 back in January.

Took a few weeks to put together though on the plus side London's pretty cold and wet that time of year so was more than happy being locked in a heated room seing what I could come up with.

Originally featured on the January show before hanging on the BBC website for a while. Stuck it up on my youtube channel a few months ago but thought it would be time to get it up here for the DL in time for Easter funkin!

Enjoy

Dj XS London - Trunk of Funk on the Craig Charles Funk & Soul Show Jan 2018

Welcome to the 'Sampled By' Daft Punk mix.

This mix explores the influences of Daft Punk using funky music from the 70's, 80's, 90's and 00's that influenced their biggest hit's.

For those who don't already know, Daft Punk are a French electronic music duo formed in Paris in 1993 by Guy-Manuel de Homem-Christo and Thomas Bangalter.

Their popularity grew in the late 1990's as part of the French house movement, combining elements of house music with funk, techno, disco, rock, and synthpop.

They wear fancy helmets and gloves to assume robot personas.

This is a fan created mix with fan created artwork to celebrate the genius of Daft Punk and is free for everyone to listen to and enjoy.

Track listings can be found below including the Daft Punk tracks they were used in.

David's Goliath

Here's a disco/house mix for the Cotswold Covid Crew - you know who you are! - with a load of the tracks I played at Phill's amazing weekend-long party just before the lockdown. Slightly more housey than disco, there's some pretty shameless big party tunes in here from the likes of Funkatomic, Shapeshifters, Barry & Gibbs, Michael Gray, Micky More & Andy Tee, Dr Packer, Rescue, Mark Funk, Mooqee, Brokenears, Jay Vegas, Mark Brickman, Da Lukas, Re-Tide, Seamus Haji, Purple Disco Machine, Bobby D'Ambrosio, Serge Funk and a few others I can't remember. Enjoy!
