Old School Hip Hop / Deep House / Classics / Soul Edits

The audio from a livestream I did during lockdown. The first mix Ive done on my new DSV vinyl setup.
The first bit is pure classic hip hop and breaks, shifting into mid tempo grooves then ending with some old skool classic house vibes.

I played mostly original vinyl, a lot of 90's deep house stuff, and had a few newer digital tracks in there too.
Enjoy :)

The Twisted Lip May 2016

Life long music lover and collector.
Graduated from recording things of the radio onto cassettes on my Hitatchi Turbo hifi in my bedroom, to buying some turntables when I was 16. 
Spent the next 20 years buying, playing, lending, losing and hording vinyl. I'm still a confirmed vinyl junkie, although I've now also embraced the digital revolution.
I was one of the residents at the Arena in Middlesbrough for a few good hazy years and got to play alongside some of the best in the business. After that I was at The Purple Onion. l also played regularly at plenty of other places in and around the north east and a few further afield, playing my take on all things deep: mostly house, disco, soul, and hip hop.

After a few years off I've now got my mojo back and I'm loving my DJing again and started playing out places a bit more x
