Bside Incoming: Admin

Once again we are gladly able to present you with an insight into the record collection of a truly passionate musician constantly seeking out new sounds and influences. This time from a Bristol based artist whose an integral part of the vibrant underground scene. It’s great to hear so much locally sourced and UK pressed vinyl and support for the city’s rich network of digging spots. 

Admin is known for a broad spectrum of musical influences, utilising Bristol’s fine musical heritage, as well as expanding the horizon with his own deep knowledge of soul, disco, and jazz that truly shines through in his Bside mix.

His productions are a tasteful blend of his disco jazz influences and a modern electronic style. Enter a deep astral soundscape with this Bside to his Spirit Boogie release:

Expect deep disco, overlooked 80s bangers, instrumental Bside gold, a hint of Bristol’s reggae influence, and many a tale of record digging.

Bside podcasts

DJ's showcase and speak a little about their favourite tracks from the B-side of their records.

We endeavour to broadcast the best of the B-side:
a bi-weekly invitation into the impressive record collections of some of our favourite selectors.
An exploration into the the back-catalogues, the deepest depths, the darkest crevices of their collections. Returning with the spoils of this venture: their most cherished records and hidden gems, from the go-to club weapons to the rarely heard home-listening records, and everything in between.

Music is for sharing.

'By the early sixties, the song on the A-side was the 'hit' song that the record company wanted radio stations to play. The B-side would contain less radio friendly and less popular tracks. In our eyes the B-side is a true reflection of the producers taste in music, there is more personality on that side of the record'.

Steadily rising into the light is Admin. 

Admin has been consciously collecting and spreading musical grooves in Bristol for around a decade. Founder of the fabled clubnight, Slix Disco, and whitelabel edits series 'Community Disc-O’s’, the consistency and quality of his musical projects stand out amid a vibrant local scene whilst attracting attention from peers and fans alike from around the globe.

A studious beatsmith and producer, Admin draws influence from his record collection. Disco, Jazz, House and Hip Hop guide his own productions into different soulful and eclectic directions. With records released on Sleazy Beats, Boogie Cafe, Omena, Futureboogie and more, Admin's music is a testament to the bedroom producer ethos - making tracks which just as easily start the dancefloor as hypnotise the home-listener.

Whether DJing percussive-heavy disco and boogie, producing jazz-tinged house, jamming with drum machines and keyboards for beat tapes, scouring for new label releases or soothing listeners on independent radio, Admin executes everything with detail and affection. It's these attributes that make him an exciting talent and one to cast a forensic eye on.
