Pullin from the Stacks - Episode 177

https://www.nts.live/shows/ifmusic/episodes/if-music-presents-you-need-this-w-jean-claude-31st-october-2021

Jean-Claude searches through his extensive mountain of records to bring out some of that new new, and some new old as well. It always bangs.

If Music Presents You Need This w/ Jean-Claude 301021

** Original upload from 2013 ** 

It’s quite an honour to get an exclusive mix from an artist who you’ve been buying his records for 10+ years. Marc Mac of 4Hero fame (founded with Dego) and tons of other projects like Visioneers, Nu Era has been one of the most influential forces in all sorts of cutting edge British music; from Jungle, Broken Beat to Downtempo.

Marc always shares tons of absolute treasures on twitter (@MarcMac4Hero) so we asked him to make us a mix as part of our amazing Forgotten Treasures. He dug deep for this one and delivered a fantastic mix which he affectionately calls “Weird & Wonders”

Essential Listening!
