Episode 4 With DJ Mani TK

Deep in the night... it got a whole lot harder, darker and quite a bit quicker. After 25 years at this craft I have a collection of music that allows me to pick a crate based on my changing mood, and that of the dance floor..

A little old school techno and acid never hurt anyone?

As always, mixed on vinyl, live in one take using my 2 1200's and a Model 1.4 mixer with a Boss DD8 and Reverb.

DeepInTheNight v2

Deep in the night ... the four to the floor of the techno got deep, dark and melodic, with hints of acid..  the minimal rhythms pulsing like that single strobe light in dark warehouse... deep in the night, do you dare?

Recorded live in one take using vinyl on two Technics 1200s with a Play Differently Model 1.4 mixer, with a Boss Digital Delay and Reverb for External EFX.

DeepInTheNight v4

Deep in the night... master said let there be Bondage..  Bondage Musics that is.. Grabbed a stack of wax, played all the A1 tracks and ended up with this.. deep in the night there was an homage to Bondage Music and the deep, minimal tech house grooves that keep us moving.

Deep In The Night I returned to my roots.. hard techno, however in this case a modern take on it, with some of the best techno tracks I've come across, with some of this vinyl hot off the press. This is one of my best mixes, and I am at home with the dark hypnotic beats.

As always, recorded live, mixed on 12" vinyl using 2x Technics 1200 mk2, a Play Differently Model 1.4 mixer and a BOSS Digital Delay and Reverb for EXF.

DeepInTheNight v6

Was thinking of good tunes on a summer day in the sunshine. I hope that is how you enjoy this mix - perhaps on a road trip or sitting at the beach!

Couldn't tell you the track list other than all music came from Habitat Music, New Tab Music or Afterlife. Grabbed a stack and just played, glad I hit record every time I play. As always recorded live on vinyl, using a Play Differently Model 1.4 mixer, 2x Technics 1200 mk2, and minimal on the digital delay and reverb for efx (BOSS). 

Also - first time mixing any of these tracks as they had only been listened to previously [or were newly arrived :)]

All tracks from the following labels vinyl releases:
https://www.discogs.com/label/1575354-Habitat-Recordings
https://www.discogs.com/label/3030733-New-Tab-Music

Solstice Mix

I have always been an audiophile, that is the result of growing up with a father who has a thing for big sound, not such a bad trait to inherit. My love of sound grows from there, often as a child needing the music to be playing so I could occupy my mind as I fell asleep. 

In the late 90's (96/97) and I had my first experience with turntables and vinyl. I was hooked and in 1998 bought my first vinyl, and played actively till moving digital... through the 2010's I played with a fully digital setup, but gave up on chasing software updates... fast forward to 2024 and I am back to the pure analogue sounds of vinyl, the PlayDifferently Model 1.4 mixer and my trusted 1200s. 

From day one I have always been a techno fiend with my greatest influences coming from the London Acid Techno scene (SUF, Cluster, 4x4, etc), Sweden (Adam Beyer, Cari Lekebusch, etc) and probably the biggest influence being Richie Hawtin aka Plastikman and Detroit Techno. 

Armand-Emile is symbolic of who I am and my sound is a blend between House, Deep House, Tech House, Techno and Minimal ... some times even venturing into more progressive sounds.. It's all about the crowd and the dance floor and finding that groove.
