Afternoon recording of a random pull of records from my house crates. Really happy with how the records flowed. Featuring some absolute classics from Sounds of Blackness, Moodymann and Chez Damier and some deep cuts from some of my favourite labels such as Rush Hour, AUS music and Azuli Records. 

It's deep, warm and groovy. Hope you dig it! 

For the fellow nerds, the equipment used is the following:

2 x Technics SL 1200 MK2
2 x Tonar Banana Concord headshell and stylus
Ecler Nuo 4.0 Mixer
ZOOM H4 Essential recorder

Strictly Wax: Classic House Crate Dig - Vinyl Only

The mood is purple. 

It’s no secret I’m a huge Prince fan and the same goes for many of the artists, musicians and DJs that I admire and look up to. One of my favourite recordings I ever put together was a 100% Prince mix but seeing as Mixcloud didn’t like that kind of thing and I lost the recording, I decided it was about time I made another one. 

The main inspiration to put this together in the first place comes from one of my favourite musical memories. It’s Glastonbury 2019 and Late Nite Tuff Guy is kicking off the entire festival with a Prince only set to a tiny rammed tent down the back off the field. I’m still yet to experience anything like the looseness that ensued dance floor when he played Sexy MF. There were arms, legs, shirts, shorts, umbrellas and whistles flying all over the gaff. 

Better suited to be pieced together on something like Ableton rather than a Pioneer controller, but I’m so software illiterate that it had to be done the old(er) fashioned way. Updated with a couple of my favourite edits that I’ve discovered since the last recording. We got there in the end and it is banging to be fair.

Anyway thank you LNTG for that set, those memories and here’s my tribute to his royal badness himself, Prince.
