like this breakdown, could start to wind down here and cut out the next bongo conga section

@lovewavemusic: nice thanks man.  i'm uploading a new edit with more of a breakdown, check it out and let me know what you think.

Back in the day this would just be a house track with some fat samples in it.  Is it a nu disco track now?  I don't know, you decide.  This is a pretty happy track (I'd say uplifting but that always means cheesy trance when you use that word), with a funky bassline, "live" sounding drums, and a nice fat disco loop that's been heavily butchered.  A different kind of style!  Let me know what you think.  Computer Paul, iam.computerpaul at gmail dot com..

This mix was compiled (with love) for Frankie's NY memorial. It's a small collection of classic Frankie Knuckles productions, mixes, remixes, and some legendary staples that he played regularly at Sound Factory Bar. This is true Frankie. The Frankie I loved!
Not just the hits, but some B-sides, dubs, down tempo, and album cuts.
I hope that you'll press play and take the journey without thumbing. You know, the way we used to do it. xo tp

Breaks, bass, garage and jungle all in one mix under the intimate roof of the Gallery? Yes please. Frazer Ray served all that and more on the shiniest silver platter to eagerly hungry fans as he devoured them with this tasty set for Percolate x Conducta's mega club takeover.

Will Automagic - Anda

Another Barker masterclass.

Sam Barker asks more from techno. The artist known simply as Barker is one of electronic music's most consistently conscientious and curious producers, challenging listeners to question the norms we accept about our shared culture—whether it's the music that fills the room, the process behind it, or the purpose of the space itself.

British-born yet based in Berlin since 2007, Barker forged a connection to many of the city's leading institutions, including Ostgut Ton, and over the course of a long and fruitful relationship, he carved out one of the more singular paths on the club and label's roster.

Not one for orthodoxy, Barker challenged four-to-the-floor techno framework in favor of melodic experimentation. By decentering or completely stripping away the typical trappings of kick drums and claps, his productions are both light and immersive, buoyant in low-end presence and shimmering in weightless space.

Six years after Utility, his sophomore album Stochastic Drift arrives this month. Shaped by pandemic-driven reinvention, it burrows deeper into harmonic twists and freeform drift. "At some point I became conscious of the process," he wrote of his latest album. "The only thing you can do is embrace the uncertainty and see every change as a potential positive.”

Consider his RA Podcast another sequel. Like his much-beloved 2019 mix for FACT, it's a collage of live recordings and a fitting expression of the artist's own internal spring. RA.982 radiates wide-eyed optimism: percussion cloaked in foggy, swirling pads and trance-like chords, neatly synched in synthetic glimmers. 

All in all, it's an hour of music crafted for contemplation, collective euphoria, or heads-down epiphany—or for that matter, any moment, really, its emotive depth seemingly endless.

Housetape 2025

Old Minidisc from the late 90's (98 or 99?). Not sure where this was at, but by the likes of the mixing 🥴, was probably some after hours. Techno tracks of that era.

Random live recording from 1995 with Red Alert and Wendy Williams. Cool to hear Raekwon and ODB as new releases. Was only a 60 min tape.

DJ Red Alert - 5 O'clock Free Ride on Hot 97 - September 1995 (Side A & B)

Made this edit right before my set at the legendary Trade during Miami Music Week 2016. A sleepless, euphoric weekend fueled by dance, sweat, and pure chaos. Inspired by the neon-soaked energy of Vice City and the timeless funk of Rick James & the Mary Jane Girls, I wanted to teleport that heat back to the dance floor. Miami was on fire, and this was my love letter to it.
