Bootlegs & B-Sides #144

The first single from the upcoming Joints N Jams Vol. 3 compilation, curated by Shaka Loves You, I'd Like To Boogie finds the Glasgow duo at their imperious dancefloor-focused best. Built around filtered loops, driving 4/4 percussion, funk-laced basslines and keys, it's an all-out disco groover. Add in a full-on earworm of a vocal, and you've got a track guaranteed to do some damage.
Fresh off their recent Traxsource No.1, the boys are clearly on a roll. This peak-time disco-house weapon is a perfect taste of what's to come on the compilation, which also features music from Illyus & Barrientos, Art of Tones, Hotmood, Young Pulse, Moodena, Dombrance, Ray Mang and more.
SLY: "I'd Like To Boogie came from a long run of club and winter festivals shows at the start of the year. Inspired by other DJ's and the dancefloor, it originally started out as a very different idea,which then morphed into the stomper you hear now."

Escapism #15

Something new for your ears, a selection of house tunes that have become near and dear to me. Big shouts to Public Hearing, Gorg-O-Mish, Nectar, Village, Denizens, Valhalla, Paradise, Rise, Vantek and The Rabbit Hole for having me out to play this year. Drawing from those moments, this mix came to life...

’Perpetually Pippen’ is a tribute to the two crucial canines in my world, Pippen and Roxy. Those who know them, know how brilliant they both are. Celestial beings that know nothing but love. Both born on the same day, but in different eras. Connected through time and space, similar to the music on the track listing below:

Perpetually Pippen

Bit of a left-field one from the cats at MeowMix HQ this time! Turns out that Kittz's sister was turning 40, and this mix right here was her birthday present!

WIth a sneakily sourced track-pool of all her favourite songs, the feline DJ duo sequestered themselves away in the CatCave with a hodge-podge melting pot of 90s pop bangers, modern house belters, old-school trance classics & bona fide indie anthems... and this is the deeply unserious & quite frankly fun af result!

Happy birthday, sis! You actually have much better taste in music than I ever gave you credit for >:D

MeowMix - Now That's What I Call Sarah's 40th!

For this week's mix I've chosen some real beauties, including some old school hip-hop classics, electronic, funk, soul and blues covers and bass filled bangers.  Crank your volume up for this one.

TRACK LIST

A Tribe Called Quest - Steve Biko (Stir It Up)
Fatback Band - Mister Bass Man
Gang Starr feat. Redman & Method Man - Bad Name (Remix)
De La Soul feat. Dres - Fanatic of the B Word

Snapshot 2025-10

Welcome to volume 3 of The Beatles Dub Club! 

A special DJ set showcasing The Fab Four like you've never heard before!

DJ Chris Arnold takes you on a magical mystery tour of his collection of covers, remixes and tracks that sampled arguably the greatest band that ever existed - The Beatles. 

Expect to hear plenty of reggae, ska, latin, hip hop, dub, funk, house and even drum & bass takes on the wonderful music created by John, Paul, George & Ringo.

Since its explosive debut in 2021, The Beatles Dub Club has packed out stages at Glastonbury, Boomtown, Latitude, Isle of Wight, Camp Bestival, Green Man and far beyond.

The show has been championed by Fatboy Slim, who personally invited Chris to perform at his All Back To Minehead Butlins weekender, and has been tipped by Far Out Magazine as one of Glastonbury’s “Top 20 Alternative Acts to Watch”.

The Beatles Dub Club has since gone truly international, with acclaimed tours across Europe, Australia, New Zealand and Bali, while continuing to light up festivals all over the UK & Ireland - including standout sets supporting UB40, Craig Charles and The Wailers.

"If Sergeant Pepper had been a DJ, this would have been his set..." - Fatboy Slim

"Far from pure novelty, it is a wonderful way to celebrate music in all of its connective guises" - Far Out Magazine

"Something so effective, and seemingly obvious, that it feels as if it should have existed for much longer than its inception just a few years ago" - The Fix Magazine

"Loving it!" - Mary McCartney

Bitchslap / Let Yourself

'Bitchslap' > D-Funk (Original Mix) CLIP [Upstart Music 011]

Sydney-based, British born DJ, D-Funk has amassed a fair few achievements in his 25-years on the decks. Making his club debut at The Depot in Bristol in 1995, he’s gone on to DJ all over the world, playing notable sets at Space Ibiza and Ministry Of Sound and released on labels including Sunday Best and Bombstrikes. 

Getting his first set of decks at 14, Doug initially fell for the sounds of jungle and techno before a night dancing to house icon Tony De Vit in 1997 turned him towards the slinkier sounds of house music. 

His DJ career began to take off during his time at university in Wolverhampton where he started to pick up gigs at the Canal Club and Mezzanine, playing alongside DJs including Joey Negro, Mr Fingers, Scott Bond and Lisa Lashes, before a move to the South-Coast town of Bournemouth led him to eventually start his own night ‘Break Da House’ in 2004. 

The night took off, attracting big names including The Stanton Warriors and Plump DJs and eventually led to D-Funk’s first release, the ‘Electrotek’ EP after Dub Pistols headlined one night and Barry Ashworth from the band decided to release Doug’s music on his Westway label. The track found its way onto a TV ad in Portugal, as well as becoming a mainstay on Kiss FM’s breakbeat chart and gave Doug the confidence to pursue a career as a producer as well as a DJ, eventually leading to releases on Adapted Records and Ghetto Funk among countless other labels over the next 15 years. 

Moving to Sydney Australia in 2009, Doug started his label Upstart Music, releasing his own productions alongside tracks from the likes of Crackerz & Jam, Niko & Lyall and Rogue Robot and later started the funk label Grits N Gravy alongside friend and funk producer Philly Blunt, with the label winning the ‘Best Label’ award at Perth Dance Music Awards in 2010. 

Since living in Sydney, Doug has held down residencies at The World Bar and The Standard/Middlebar for the best part of a decade, as well as regular slots at Sash, Ivy, Goros, Hugos and many others. He’s played events for high profile companies such as Blackberry, Telstra, Jagermeister,  Sydney Cricket Ground & Saatchi & Saatchi. But there was still demand for him back on the side of the world and he regularly returned to Europe to play at Space Ibiza (including a set at the penultimate night of Carl Cox’s Revolution party) as well as touring in the UK, Europe, Asia and Canada. 

Now 25 years into his career, Doug is about to mark the 10th anniversary of his label Grits ‘N’ Gravy, with a compilation due this year mixed by himself and Philly Blunt, and has been busy producing house, hip hop and nu-disco with his current production partner Mr Doris.
