Found this mix a couple of years ago on a minidisc and included it as "Frozen Food" in the "Joy Of Cooking " series that was aired on deepfrequency.com.
It's from 98 or 99 and the sound is rather contemporary and mellow. Downbeat, Trip Hop and Future Jazz. No obscure flea market finds but names like Four Tet, Lemon Jelly and Karma.... and some of those timeless PORK releases too.

Long time no see folks! And we're back with a real gem. My friend Patrick made this mix with records he dug at the bin, the growing bin to be exact. 
Obviously I love that stuff he plays and how he does it. He is a super human too. Releasing the Drum Chums 12s and these hot @talkingdrumsrecords with his buddies. We will be meeting in Bristol this saturday (march 5th @ The Love Inn, https://t1p.de/0m588) and I'm LOOKING MAD FORWARD TO IT! Thanks a ton for everything  and the mix Patch!!!

I got to know Laurel (@silver-side-pony) via the growing bin website. Always loved their picks from the bin and so I got curious. Then I heard one of Laurels mixes and was sold. I am superhappy to share this almost 4 hour long sandwich with you... now handing over the keyboard. 
"Laurel hails from the rural North Island (Te Ika-a-Māui) of Aotearoa, New Zealand. They enjoyed a few years observing Pōneke (Wellington)’s rambunctious and delightfully strange music scene at venues like Puppies and the revered Camp a Low Hum, before moving to Berlin.
This mix is the result of many quiet lockdown nights trawling bandcamp, deep dives into the (Growing) Bin, and excavating their record collection. Winding in and out of new music and old gems over 3.5 hours, the mix reflects their unease and excitement of heading back to parties after a long break. Laurel made sure to include some old well-trodden favourites, doing a big middle finger to the pressure to play new and “rare” tracks at every single outing.
Big shout outs go to Eyeliner (@disasterradio), Tania (@taniajust), Castro & Nemo (@sound-metaphors), Cáit (@caitfa), and Stella (@stella-zekri-ouiddir) for inspiration." 
Thanks a TON for this yummy mix Laurel!!

Here's a mix of german only tracks by my friend Gero. Connected through the love for obscure german fleamarket finds we have been exchanging oddities for a couple of years now. Gero is a gentlemen enjoying his finds in silence and it was hard work getting him to record a mix. Funnily he seems to have enjoyed it a lot and promised a sequel already (which might be coming soon as I have missed to post this here mix for months - mit der Bitte um Vergebung!) . Since he's caring very little for social media blah there is no tagging and stuff. But if you like what you hear, leave a friendly comment. He'll probably read it with a rapt smile :) Danke Gero!

Gero - Auf Deutsch Teil 1 (Guest Mix, 2023)

Blessed is the feeling here when listening to this celestial and mysterious beauty of a mix by @Pingipung's very own Heiko Gogolin (@heiko-h-gogolin). With an almost shamanic vision he weaves a web of rhythm and melody for many returning listening sessions. The working title fits the vibe so well that we had to keep it.  Steadily growing onme it has been great company for many late night work sessions in the bin HQ and I must really say it best fits the dark and calmer hours of the day - filling these with contemplative energy. 
THANK YOU SO MUCH, HEIKO! 
(PM for track ids, please)

Back by popular demand: Tako's wonderful Holiday Mix!
Here's what I wrote 7 years ago:

I was about to post this beautiful summer mix of Tako with the following words:

"What do you expect from a mix when it's done by a supernice guy with an excellent taste in music and a wonderful record collection? Yeah and that's exactly what you get here. Also make sure to get a copy of the first 12" of the Sombrero Galaxy, released on Lovefingers long awaited ESP Institute. Sombrero Galaxy is the collabo between Tako and Jonny Nash and their "Journey to the center of the sun" is one of my favourite releases of the last years, cheers!"

That was yesterday. In the meantime something terrible happened. Tako's friend Petros Malevis from Athens passed away without a warning. This mix is dedicated to Petros! He will be missed. Rest in peace, Petros.

Tako - Holiday (Guest Mix, 2010)

I have been pestering Philipp for years asking for a mix for the bin... probably since falling in love with his Spring Mix from 2010. That one is one of the most played mixes in this here house. Danke Philipp, daß ich jetzt einen neuen Lieblingsmix habe! When Philipp is not sitting in Berlin missing his SALON DES AMATEURS residency and making insanely good mixes, he's making music just as good. Check GROKENBERGER and be on the lookout for his full EP debut on Tour Messier.

Philipp Otterbach - For Growing Bin (Guest Mix, 2017)

Growing Bin burst into 2018 with a bang, crash and symbol splash, uniting a premier pair of per- cussion obsessives for a supernatural mission into the heart of the rhythm.
Dressed in the pitch black of Düsseldorf stands Wolf Müller, master of the tropical drums and se- ven time Salon Des Amateur breakdance champion. Repping Cologne and Berlin is Niklas Wandt, Germany’s funkiest drummer and a mixed musical artist as adept in experimental jazz as demen- ted Euro dance. Standing toe to toe in a no holds barred, no drum unstruck groove contest, these two titans will make you swing your pants like a Crash Bandicoot victory dance...so stretch out and step in to ‚Instrumentalmusik von der Mitte der World‘.
Taking to their task with the joyful abandon of two big kids getting creative with the Kindergar- ten music tray, Müller & Wandt marry dripping electronics, Froesean pads and rubber-limbed basslines with tribal polyrhythms, C2 claps and Indonesian shakers - and that‘s only on the A1. Comprising of three trance-inducing epics, a handful of medium-sized movers and a couple of freeform interludes, this dynamic double pack could almost pass as a lost Library masterpiece; but our mind guides go Furthur, fusing esoteric funk and free-jazz freak-out a truly transportive experience. Prepare to enter a world of techno totems and neon skulls, shades of Yello and excel- lent birds. Within these grooves lies a transdimensional pathway between the Temple of Doom, the Twilight Zone and De Palma‘s Paradise, brought to life in a shamanic rite.
Forget the healing frequencies of Growing Bin‘s ambient outings, this time we‘re dancing for mental health.
(wordsmith: Patrick Ryder!)

If you haven't been on a submarine for the last years you might have heard of No Frills aka Lukas and Viktor and their intriguing finds (https://goo.gl/H3moqK), spectacular mixes (https://soundcloud.com/no_frills), pure personality guests (https://soundcloud.com/5918mins), love for the unknown and subtle humour. Now here's more of their good stuff, combining gregorian Oktoberfest vibes with paprika soul, pop rap pearls and Westberliner Kneipenhits. See you in the queue for track ids!

No Frills - Curiosity Thrilled The Cat (Guest Mix , 2019)

Welcome to Aki's diploma in digging german reggae (not reggae) jams!!!!!
After years of dusty and partiall crusty fingers, ears chewed off by long bearded, dreadlocked Karl-Heinze, our friend Aki well deserved the dregree of the #1 Raster-Fahr-Ei in town (ei mihn se internet). 
Grab your dictionary and light a spliff. 
It's Reggie Taim!

Basso - Cocktails By The Pool (2013)

Another win for the Glowing Pin as Müller & Wandt drop a fresh new age groover on a killer club dub tip. Elsewhere Phazer Boys, Suzanne Kraft, Philipp Otterbach and River Yarra remix the pscht out of their favourite tracks from ‘Instrumentalmusik..’. Expect Goan hits, cosmic trips, loved up rave and chilled out wave on this flawless five tracker.   
Growing Bin becomes Glowing Pin for the most anticipated rematch of the century. Back at the beginning of 2018, Wolf Müller and Niklas Wandt went head to head for a box office smash, throwing a high school percussion tray, wall of hardware and voodoo skull into the ring for the tribal trip of ‘Instrumentalmusik Von Der Mitte Der World’. 
Now the multi-instrumental duo face off once again, but this time it’s a royal rumble with Phazer Boys, Suzanne Kraft, Phillip Otterbach and River Yarra all bringing the noise to the Glowing Pin.  
Müller and Wandt dominate the action on the A1, playing loose with sampler vox, serene pads and future primitive rhythms on the unreleased ‘Fun Dub’ of the also unreleased ‘Dub Dub’. Imagine Ferris Bueller’s trampoline tumble trading Chicago to the Weissenhof and you’ll sense the mood of this New Age groove. Germany’s number one party dudes, those freaky Phazer Boys take a break from dropping killer Candomblé cuts to reach for the lasers on the A2, taking ‘Ahu’ to another dimension. Dripping in neon body paint and armed with fire poi, the Düsseldorf duo power up progressive house sequences, didgeridoo bass and thumping tribal house percussion for a wall-shaking, speaker-breaking remix.   
The B1 belongs to synth whiz Suzanne Kraft who revels in glistening, gliding glory on an expansive remix of  ‘Auflösung’. Sleek, serene and futuristic, the track shimmers like Fritz Lang’s Metropolis, free from inequality and rendered with the 5D(ub?) majesty of a DMT breakthrough. 
B2 hears Salon associate and serious talent Philipp Otterbach take over on a stripped back and psychedelic post punk dub of ‘Expedition’. Angular bass by Süne Große and a stuttering rhythm underpin astral flourishes and the hazy vocals of Lucas Croon before the African elements begin to move to the forefront. 
Last man standing is Australian outlier River Yarra, who leads us into the Krautback with a chugging dub of ‘Weltraumsandalen’. Lent a lysergic sparkle by a percolating one-note bassline, this slow motion stunner masters perpetual motion amid the eerie echoes of the bush, organic percussion and electronic animal cries fading into the night. Let the pins glow again.

Impromptu muscovite supergroup Lilipulu turn the needle neon with a quartet of unexpected killers for club cosmonauts, rainforest ravers, anxious insomniacs and giddy punks. 

Unplanned, inspired and all the way live – the pin is glowing! Ever wondered why the Growing Bin releases sound so damn good? Well, it has more than a little to do with mastering magician Sergey Luginin, whose eagle-ears and technical know how have been a part of the process since GBR002. For the latest Glowing Pin powerplay, our man in Moscow joins some close friends on the other side of the console, letting the creative juices flow for ‘Four Amazing Tracks’. Luring Simple Symmetry brothers Sasha & Sergey and DJ & photographer Ivan Pustovalov into his studio with the promise of an afternoon stroll through the nearby Elk Forest, Sergey set the circuitry in motion and the quartet got lost in music. What begin with a plan for some simple edits and a woodland walk quickly became a full scale studio throw down, reimagining forgotten favourites amid a multi-instrumental stew of propulsive polyrhythms, low slung bass, cosmic synths and frazzled guitars. There’s techno-tribal hypnosis on the mind bending, brain blending A1, poetic post punk on the angular, janglier A2, outrageous Afro-cosmic on the freaky Floyd-in-Lagos B1 and languid ambience on the lysergic lullaby which closes the set. Recorded as they worked and presented in chronological order, this EP is a triumph of inspiration over perspiration - a snapshot of a moment which will last forever.

Kayne played such a brilliant early 90s UK Rap tune on Red Light Radio last week that I had to reach out and ask for ID. I don't do this everyday :) And then I asked for a mix. And wtf - here it is. Genres? Yeah! Eclectic shit, just the way I love it! And I hardly know a track played ... proper digging work!!

NO DEMOS PLEASE! 
growing bin records is a micro-label and online record store. With lots of love and affection we bring you music that is special to our ears. Well actually we're a one man business, but "we" sounds a bit more professional, or maybe even royal. Forget about that. We're small and not a bit royal and we'll stay small and loyal. Cheers!  If I should not react to your demo I probably didn't feel it, and I'm too shy to tell you.  Sorry but life is short and I don't release stuff that i feel 100%. Keep on keeping on! 
I am actually not releasing much at all at the moment as I am focussing on selling the thousands of used records in my studio (that has to move later in the year) so do me a favour and come over to the bin aka www.growingbinrecords.com and help me get rid of the gold ...(no not my own collection!)
