what in tarnation is deze lekkere tune here. na distent memory

The Tiger Tapes are back and this time we're really happy to have two very special guests: @heelsandsouls  - one of London's foremost not-for-profit parties, re-issue label, and the DJ duo of Ben Croft and Patrick Forrester. 

These lads have been making waves in the music scene by re-issuing amazing gems such as The Soundstealer's classic jam "Amazonia" in collaboration with a rework from buddies Good Block with their signature dubby goodness.

Much more can be said about these two, but let's let the music talk for itself, as they have delivered a proper chuggy downtempo workout that moves into more psychedelic proggyness.

A "morning music" style mix by Mr. Fonk, severely inspired by the climates of what one might have experienced in dancefloors throughout Fire Island somewhere between the late 70s and early 80s. A long time appreciator and student of the beginnings of dancefloor culture in New York, Mr. Fonk knows a thing or two about sleaze, start your week in good hearings, it's all here - listen carefully!

Merchant w/ Evie - December 2022

New year, new 90’s South Africa mix with a focus on the 93-96 era. Previous years I’ve released a Kwaito mix on @ctw-podcasts  & @averagerecordsbln . This year I release it on my own page under the project name ‘Jam City’ which draws inspiration, both in name & artwork, from the original Kwaito project releases like Dance City, Ripp City, Dancemaster and so on. This one features the Kwaito DJ Tools, vocal sample tunes, Shangaan Disco, Import Mixes, Bubblegum stars turned Kwaito and the more out of the box renditions from the early and best era. All released on my favorite labels, produced by my favorite producers and featured on my favorite projects. Lots of recent uploads of mine, future uploads that will eventually find their way to my channel and uploads by fellow diggers whom I highly regard.

Jam City Vol 1 - A Kwaito Dance Mixtape

Among the terms that lie at the core of our shared lexicon as music lovers, “discovery” might be one of the most fundamental in expressing the drive behind each and every one of our efforts. It may seem simple, but it is a complex notion that involves many actions and sensations, from learning things and taking risks to finding rewards and building knowledge. Discovering is a quintessential part of our collective identity, a unique way of being and feeling, since unveiling parts of reality that were hidden from us is both a way of creating ourselves and the world around us.

So, when this talented discoverer of musical artifacts decided to use the Ancient Greek word for it as his moniker, he wasn’t just trying to name himself but mainly to come up with a precise definition for what he is and does as an artist.

Thus, Anacalypto can be many things at once, the main one being exactly what guides every single one of his initiatives and animates relentless dancing journeys: that perennial sense of wonder that tapping into the unknown brings into our lives.

Sound Metaphors Mix Series 18 : Anacalypto

Really really happy with this recording and proud of myself playing about as broad as I have ever played in a pretty flawless way even if I say so myself. Mostly (but def not all) vinyl.

Until further notice, this mix will be the best summary of what you get when you book DJ Tracksuit. :-) Long tracks, slow builds, lots of genres, depth, emotion etc.

Curious to hear from you what you think! <3
