Episode 75, the three quarter century, was a bit of a special one - it was broadcast on Valentine’s Day, which is also my birthday! Couldn’t resist slipping in a couple of loved up smoochers, but this episode was all about the promos really, with two new cuts from myself and some brand new heat from disco friends Pete Whitely, Pete Ellison, Jack Tennis, Shalvoy, Da Lukas, Robert Ouimet & Dave Godin and Mascott

As it was my birthday, I’d lined up an extra special guest for hour 2 - Michael Gray!!! Michael is a hugely respected and established British DJ and music producer, best known for his hits ‘The Weekend’ & ‘Borderline’ He is also one half of the dance music production and remixing duo 'Full Intention' who have been at the forefront of Dance music since the early 90s.

London-based Michael is one of the most in-demand Artists on the global dance music scene today. Having relaunched his solo career as Michael Gray in 2018 to pursue his original love of Disco, Michael has consistently placed in the top three house artists on Traxsource - an incredible achievement and a worthy accolade for Michael's world-class production skills. Throw into the mix awesome DJ sets at the best events in the UK, and a host of chart topping tracks with Jon Pearn as Full Intention, and you start to see the full picture of one of the UK's most talented Artists. He has DJ’d all over the world from MOS in London to Hi (for Glitterbox) & Pacha in Ibiza and as far and wide as Poland, Germany, The Philippines, Australia, Russia, Brazil, Georgia, Spain and The Netherlands. 

Huge thanks to Michael for guesting on my show with this amazing mix, and please check out his excellent Thursday night Twitch livestream. I’ll be back live on the excellent NDC Radio (ndcradio.co.uk) in a couple of weeks, so until then, I love ya!

Get Funkier! #95 - 4th August 2022

The universe did its best to scupper this episode, with a no show from my scheduled guest and a corrupted USB stick nearly spelling the end. But somehow it prevailed, with a rushed reformatting and partial reloading of the USB and an heroic last minute effort from my replacement special guest. More on that in a minute. 

My half of the show was heavy on the promos, with new sounds from Folkness, Dr Packer, Ken@Work, The Magic Track, Dexter Jones, TURF as well as an absolute blinder of a track from Magnolia that’s about to drop on The Disco Express. I also road tested a couple of bits that I’ve been busy with in the studio over the last week or so. 

We very nearly ended up with two hours of me as the guest I had lined up let me down, but fortunately I was rescued by an up and coming DJ from Duisburg, Germany. Jasmin, AKA Jay-Kay is the fiancee of fellow Disco Walton DJ BK, and she very kindly stepped in at a moment’s notice to save the day. She’s new to DJing but already getting out there with various guest mix appearances, including one with DJ BK just the day before this one for The Disco Waltons Sunday Service. 

Despite being new to the game Jasmin has mixed up a treat for us, with selections covering disco, chunky retro boogie, chugging spacey nu-disco, some Madonna, some Chaka Khan, even some Prince… what a lovely selection!

I’m hugely grateful for Jasmin for volunteering at such short notice and saving everyone from two hours of me, and I love the fact that she’s so willing to practise and put her mixes out there despite being a relative newcomer. Can’t wait to meet her at ADE in a couple of months!

Episode 109: Feel Good Friday Radio Show (feat Charly Angelz)

It’s a pleasure to welcome my buddy Craig Adams as my guest this week. He always plays an absolute blinder, and I am a regular listener to his own radio show.

It all started for Craig as a clubber who loved this music and started collecting all the 12” records that he heard in the clubs and on the radio. He was naturally drawn into DJing, and learnt to mix on Tandy belt-drive turntables. In his own words, “the belt-drives were murder as was the mixing”

As for the rest of his musical journey, here are some more words from the man himself.

“I still have all the 12”s I bought, must have close to 2000 of them, mainly House and Old-Skool from 90s. I got myself some Technics eventually but the mixing never improved much, although the new tech has made it all too easy.

Kevin Jones from Radio Fourth Edinburgh was my main inspiration which is mad because I played a Clubnight for which he was a no show for 1 night in Club M8, and now I’m in his old radio show slot on Radio Saltire when he decided to hang up his headphones. I’ve been involved there now for around 5 years, starting out as part or Elements of Rhythm show, then on my own with my HouseNation Radio Show for the past 3 years. I’ve been playing gigs in Glasgow and Edinburgh where all proceeds go to keep the station running.

The last gig we had Yomanda headlining and previous to that we have had Dream Frequency and other top names DJs from the Oldskool side for our Back2Basics Show. 

I recently became part of the NDC Radio crew, broadcasting my HouseNation show. Big thanks to Karen Scargall and Andy Yorkee Knowles for the opportunity and looking forward for all the good things ahead and a big thanks to Pete Ellison for having me on his show”
