The Guest Mix is from Mike Woods:
Mike started dj-ing back in 1989 after being a regular at the legendary Hacienda club especially Park and Pickering's Friday Nude night. After meeting another Hacienda DJ Steve Williams who also had a couple of sidekicks called Laurent Garnier and Sasha (I'm not sure what happened to those two though) it was Steve who introduced Mike to Eastern Bloc records and that's where all those elusive records were coming into Manchester from as you couldn't get this new Music from just anywhere. Mike soon started to pick up his own collection of records and as he was the only one with these records he was asked to DJ local parties in his home town of Warrington. It was around 89 that the Thunderdome opened in Manchester and Mike got to play a few Thursday nights and also later that year got to play some local clubs in Warrington, the next logical progression was to get a Saturday night and that came in the shape of a club called Legends in Warrington, this started in 1990 and ran through till 93, (see Youtube video's for some memorable footage)it still stands out to today as quite a unique Music policy as it started around 90 bpm with a balearic vibe and slowly built up to anything form deep house to Techno and even the odd disco track.

It was also around 1990 that Mike produced his first record Flashback - You which still sells for a good money on discogs, it was a white label that was pressed up by himself.

The next record produced was under the name bbr streetgang, which was signed to Scottish label Hubba Hubba, and followed up with the United House E.P. which was a reflection of the Music policy at Legends, with a disco sampled house feel and also a couple of downtempo tracks.

BBR streetgang went on to sign to Transworld records which was a subsidiary of Dead Dead Good records of course home to The Charlatans, bbr's biggest hit followed in the shape of Feel the Music which was on some of the big compilation CD's of the time and was a disco infused track which was played live in the studio and still sounds great today.

Mike eventually left Legends in 93 and was looking for something new and found that in the shape of the World club, again in Warrington and this is where Mike's love of the disco sample was played out on his own productions in the studio with tracks like Disco Groove, also remixed by New Yorks production team Roc & Kato, and in his sets with new Music coming from the like's of DJ Sneak and G.U. and his love for the American sound.

Mike eventually had a family and settled down in Melbourne Australia but after ten years decided to make the move back to U.K. in 2016 and also started to produce new material under his own name, release's for Masterworks, Reptile Dysfunction and All My Friends to name a few.

Tracklist to follow....

Dancing In Your Kitchen With Pete Le Freq 4.9.20

Black Light Disco was slapping on the Hawaiian Tropic and putting the towels on the sun loungers for Monday's show, which featured our monthly residents, Samosa Funk! 

We’ve been spoilt rotten by Les Inferno and De Gama since they joined Black Light Disco - but this? This is something else. It really, really is something else. There are times when it's impossible to find the right words to describe something so good it made your ears tingle and your soul soar. This, dear listeners is one of those times. 

So sit back, or stand up (whichever you prefer) and just take in what these two Italian maestros served up. Because this is what it's all about.

Recorded live at Rome's Hotel Butterfly, it will immediately make you wish you were there.

October 2020 Mix

I always try my best to bring a wide selection of music from across the years on my show. That said, I'm getting more and more opportunity to play brand new stuff, which I think is great. So in this episode, alongside a couple of oldies I also bring you brand spanking new music from Mark Whites, Hotmood and Le Babar, forthcoming on Seesaw, Discoweey and Sundries.  

In hour 2 I welcome Collective Groove, who have put together a wonderful exclusive guest mix for the show. Collective Groove are a musical movement from London & the South East of England who hit the scene as a collective earlier this year. The group consist of 3 close friends, DJ’s Pete and Charlie along with Bobby who although not a DJ, brings with him a rich and knowledgeable musical history.

The trio run 3 series on their Soundcloud covering Disco, House and Deep House/Deep Tech. They also have a growing guest mix series providing a platform for both new and well established artists alike.

Their guest mix for Funkier Radio draws heavy inspiration from their 'That Disco Groove' series. Keen to provide multiple interpretations of groove, the diverse selection includes notorious boogie jams, electro laced funk, wordwide latin & afro disco along with some artists who have heavily influenced their journey through music such as Jamiroquai and Dave Lee (fka Joey Negro).

Jackies Virtual Music Fest #001 - Natasha Kitty Katt

It may have been a pretty rubbish year in general, but Midnight Riot has done its best to keep us entertained via a wealth of disco and boogie-centric EPs. If you missed out on many of the label's 2020 treats, don't worry, because they've gathered together the best of their recent output on this epic compilation. Drawing on original nu-disco, revivalist disco, feel-good house, synth-heavy boogie sounds and gently tooled-up edits, highlights are predictably plentiful. Our picks include the summery soulful house goodness of 'Nothing But the Music (Hotevilla Mix)' by Platinum City, the nu-boogie brilliance of Qwestlife's remix of 'Savage' by Tommy Glasses, the loopy disco-house joy of Mottes 'The Horse Ride' and Yam Who's 'Full Vocal Mix' of Sam Shelley's sunshine disco number 'Groove It'.

Various - The Finest 2020 - Midnight Riot Compilation - DJ Yam Who? Mix

Brand new mix of tracks coming out in 2021 from me and Hot Gorilla Records featuring new signings Keemz, Fray Bentos and several brand new edits. Plus tracks from my 3rd EP on Hot Digits out in a few months
