Beats working vol 3

You walk into 
The world you make
You loose yourself 
But you find your way

Going to watch you radiate …

We turn so slow 
I know it’s hard to wait
Take your time son
It’s yours to take

Going to watch you radiate …

These rocks they hold heat
Pools of water cool your feet
As you walk you believe
Every part of the dream

I see you lost 
In what you create
All of time 
In this one single day 

You take it and you radiate …

Follow your hands
As they build, as they shape
As they follow your mind
As it rolls like a wave

Take it and you radiate …

These rocks they hold heat
Pools of water cool your feet
As you walk you believe
Every part of the dream

From Here To Now To You

Radiate

Pre Order from  iTunes

In the morning when the world came awake
Before you knew me I knew your name
It was painted across the day as it breaks 
An impression in your window frame 

When you saw me out your window
Singing from the garden
Only the beginning 
I’m only getting started
I don't mind the digging 
Baby, I'll work harder
I've been washing dishes
Singing from the bottom

But one day I'll be running this place
And one day I could take you away
But I want you to wonder what’s my name
Because I need you to want me the same

When you saw me washing dishes
Singing from the bottom
Only the beginning 
I’m only getting started
I don't mind the digging 
Baby, I'll work harder
I've been in the ashes
Singing from the garden

Where everything reaches for the sun
Still unsure of what we’ll become
But I need you to reach out to me
See in me more than I could see
Because I’m afraid that…

One day is only two words we say
I don’t want to let them get in the way 
Of all the plans that we should be making right now
Right now

Who took the time and where did they take it
I want to take it back, I don't want to let them break it
All these plans that we should be making right now
Right now

You see now one day I'll be running this place
And one day I could take you away
But I want you to wonder what's my name
Because I need you to want me the same

When you saw me out your window
Singing from the bottom
Only the beginning
I'm only getting started
I don't mind the digging
Baby, I'll work harder
I’ve been washing dishes
Singing from the bottom 

One day is only two words we say
I don’t want to let them get in the way 
Of all these plans that we should be making right now
Right now

But who took the time and where did they take it
I want to take it back, I don't want to let them break it
All these plans that we should be making right now

Washing Dishes

From my tape deck there's a recklessness
Inflections of the world we want
All my friends, my rusty truck
We’re just specs of love, directionless
We’ll call this band just what we want
We can change the name from month to month
Four guitars and zero drums
We sounded folk but we wanted to be punk
In a world post punk

My friend had an old guitar
He took some lessons, didn't get very far
An Ibanez with one knob stuck
Said you can have that thing for fifty bucks
Loren got a bass but he got no amp
We borrowed Skill's, we never gave it back
Luke was just learning how to strum
But since he was the worst
We made him play the drums


You may find in the palm
Of your hand there’s a flame
As it burns, as it climbs
As it turns to a blaze
Well this flame, it won’t last
Here it comes, hold it close
Because this blaze can be fast
Set it free now there it goes

Luke's mom said that after school
We could rehearse in the living room
But that sure didn't last too long
Guess she didn't know we played Fugazi songs
Play these songs in the talent show
And all of the girls will be in the front row
But in the end we just chickened out
Because we can't sing, we can only shout
Only shhhhhhh….

You may find in the palm
Of your hand there’s a flame
As it burns, as it climbs
As it turns to a blaze
Well this flame, it won’t last
Here it comes, hold it close
Well this blaze can be fast
Set it free now there it goes

Today is my Birthday and the funeral of my dear friend Nito Cardona . The originator of and the man who gave me the job at Sa Trinxa . I knew Nito for 20 years and have so many funny  memories of this special character  who was equally adored by so many in Ibiza . 

My fondest memories of Nito where  at Sa Trinxa early in the afternoon or late evening , the music ambient ,   we were able to dream away together to a place without words, just happy emotions and feelings  .

 Ibiza will miss you . Your spirit will always be at Sa Trinxa  and many will remember your kind heart.

  My condolences and highest respect to Nito's mother Katlin ,  brother Guillmo  and his son Victor , family .

Recorded live at Sa Trinxa 9/ 10/2013 . Nito was present with me during part of the recording. I think he had come to say good bye !

Miami Horror - Solé Fixtape Vol. 22

Forward by D-Funk:
For the 2nd part of my D-Funk 25 mix series I’ve focused on the best, most important or my favourite tracks I’ve made or had a hand in making. Some are originals. Some remixes. Some are edits, bootys or whatever we’re calling them nowadays. It’s a real mix from across the years including my 1st release ‘Transitions’ on Barry Ashworth & Carl Loben’s Westway Records. Right up to my latest, a free download that will drop shortly after the mix goes live. It’s a mix of varying genres. For ages I’ve been known as ‘Europe D-Funk’ that plays funky breaks but, as you’ll see from this mix, my funk focused music covered all styles from hip hop to house, disco to breaks & electro. But don’t worry, I’ve included some of the mid-tempo music that got me really known on an international scale, how could I not! 

Some of the music on this mix has been released on my own labels Upstart Music, the breaks based label I started in 2008 & Grits N Gravy, the funk based label I started with Philly Blunt in 2010. There are also tunes on labels such as Sunday Best, ‘I’m In Love’ the 1st of my 3 remixes I’ve done for the Dub Pistols. The often overlooked, but I think my best mid-tempo tune ‘Bigger Than Baseline’ on Adapted Records. I’ve closed the mix with a recent, original hip hop song ‘Cruise Control’ that my longtime studio partner & good friend Mr Doris. There’s also music from the great series That’s Not An Edit, a track from the now deceased Rump Shakers Records & a rare release from Cakes at The World Bar, a Sydney institution that I was resident at for 8 years. 

I started making music seriously in 2006 when I met & formed a friendship with Barry Ashworth from the band Dub Pistols. He both inspired & guided me to my first few releases. I’m ever grateful for his words of encouragement & enthusiasm. From starting on a knock off copy of Reason on an old PC in the corner of the spare bedroom to now having a fully working dedicated studio, I can honestly say it’s been a wild ride of ups & downs. I guess music mirrors life that way. Even though I started producing & releasing music a while after I started DJing in 1995 on belt drive decks in my bedroom in Wiltshire (UK), I’ve now gone on to release over 200 tracks on over 30 different labels. These are the 25 that made the mix...

In One Piece

My Free Downloads Mix. 

Over the years I’ve given away lots & lots of free tune downloads. I think it’s prob about 100 in total! It dawned on me one day that it would be pretty cool to put together a mix featuring a load of my favourites from over the years. From my first ever freebie, the re-edit of The Prodigy ‘Narayan’ from back in 2008 which was a bit of a killer, dance floor filling, secret weapon in the Break da House days. To the latest, a great new version of the iconic Bruce Hornsby tune ‘The Way It Is’ that I used to listen to on cassette over & over again when I was a little kid back in the 80's. There’s a bunch of other great ones that didn’t make the mix like my whole Ghetto Funk EP from 2013, my NWA ‘Straight Outa Compton’ remix that’s one of my most ever played on Soundcloud & loads from the That’s Not An Edit series that I’ve done 13 freebies for now. 

I tried to include the full spectrum of genres I’ve been making over the years. Starting off funky into nu disco. Then from a bit of mid tempo bass into house & breaks. Even finishing off with my only ever go at dubstep or dugstep. 

So without further a do here’s 24 tunes (just) over 90 mins of my best freebies… ENJOY!   

Track listing:
The Meters - ’Cissy Strut’ (D-Funk Edit)  2013 
Mr Doris & D-Funk - ‘Cruise Control’ (N.O.W vs Roots Edit) 2024

This is my rave tape! A retrospective look into my UK rave culture roots.

I remember vividly when I heard my first ever rave tape. It was 1992 & my friend gave me the cassette to play in my walkman after school. When I put it on my whole world changed. I'd never heard anything like it before & instantly was hooked. That tape was DJ Seduction & Jumping Jack Frost at Perception Wonderland July '92. It's still one of my favourites.

My school friends & I used to collect all the rave tape packs when they came out, getting the bus to Swindon & going to the 'rave shop' as we called it. At this time we weren't old enough to go to the actual parties. Our favourites were from the Universe parties which were happening quite closer to where I grew up in Wiltshire. We had others from Dreamscape, Fantasia, Obsession, Amnesia House & Helter Skelter. The walls of my bedroom were covered in rave flyer. I’d often drift off to sleep & dream about going to some of them. 

When I got a bit older, but probably not old enough, I was able to go to the parties myself. I used to regularly go to Devotion at Golddiggers, Fusion in Bath, The Brunel Rooms where D.I.Y hosted a room, Helter Skelter at The Sanctuary, United Dance, Slammin' Vinyl & free parties like Spiral Tribe. These were some of the best days & had a huge influence on my musical taste & style. I'd always say to myself 'one day that will be me on the decks up there'.

My first ever gig was at a club called The Depot in Bristol which hosted a night called Death Row Techno. At the time I was playing what we'd now call jungle techno. It was a little before UK rave music split into happy hardcore & jungle/DnB. The night I played was a rave (I can’t remember the name of the event) that had Bristol’s own jungle legend Ronnie Size & one of the scenes best hardcore DJs Brisk playing. So you could say that rave is in my blood.

For years I've been saying I'm going to make my own rave tape. A collection of all the tunes that, when I hear them, I can recall exactly where I was, who I was with & where we were in the crowd. I hope you enjoy them as much as I do!

I think the pace of this mix is very chilled, suited to a summer cruise around the streets on your bike. There's some new ones, old ones and some shameless self promotion (I haven't put many of my own tunes in mixes so I figured I should hey? :)

Solé Fixtape Vol. 11

Back when all my little goals 
Seemed so important
And every pot of gold 
Filling full of distortion
Heaven was a place still in space 
Not in motion
But soon

I got you, I got everything
I’ve got you, I don't need nothing
More than you, I got everything
I’ve got you

We went walking through the hills 
Trying to pretend that we both know
Maybe if we save up 
We could build a little home
But then the hail storm came
It yelled "you need to let go,
You've got no control" 

I got you, I got everything
I’ve got you, I don't need nothing
More than you, I got everything
I’ve got you

This weight’s too much alone
Some days I can't hold it at all
If you take it on for me
When tomorrow is too much
I'll carry it all
I got you

When tomorrow is too much
I'll carry it all
I got you

I got you, I got everything
I’ve got you, I don't need nothing
More than you, I got everything
I’ve got you

I Got You

Not sure if I put this up before...Mushroom Jazz 24  Mix Tape Side A  July 1999

Mushroom Jazz 24 - Mix Tape Side A - 07/1999

Twenty-five years is a fair chunk of time by anyone’s estimation but for Doug Masters, he remembers his first ever DJ gig at The Depot in Bristol like it was yesterday. “I was so nervous I thought I’d never do it again,” he says. “Little did I know that I’d end up playing thousands of times more and at some of the best clubs and festivals all over the world.” 

Marking 25 years that has seen Doug release on labels including Sunday Best, Bombstrikes and Westway with his D-Funk alias, become one of the architects of the funky breaks sound with his mid-2000s night Break Da House and play everywhere from Ibiza to the US, Canada, Europe and his adopted home of Australia, Doug has embarked on two mixes to celebrate his two and a half decades in the game. 

“I’m lucky to have been through so many scenes,” says Doug. “I caught the tail-end of the rave scene in the UK, zipping around to find parties in fields and in disused railway tunnels and then moved through progressive house to trance to UK garage and breaks and then on to my own production journey in the 2000s. I wanted to put together some mixes that reflected all of that.”

The first mix of the two-part series is a collection of tunes that have influenced Doug over the years, touching on everything from disco & house to UK garage & breaks to jungle, while the second collects together 25 of Doug’s personal favourites from his illustrious career as a producer. 

“I was lucky enough to spread a style of music I loved and helped create around the globe,” says Doug. “I want to celebrate that and everything that influenced me along the way with these two mixes.”

I don't usually do special mixtapes, but that one I couldn't resist. I'm glad to be part of that series which features the best of the LA disco scene, with guys like Oliver, Classixx, Gigamesh, Goldroom, Plastic Plates and Touch Sensitive. 
The first part is definitely disco, second half is a lot more clubby and house that usual. 

Hope you like it,
Z

Zimmer - Solé Fixtape Vol. 14 | June 13 Tape

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.
