Scotland has long been a hot bed for underground electronic music; they really know their stuff up there and plying their trade longer than most are respected DJs and promoters Steve Cass & Justin Wilson with their No Strings Attached parties. Now in their 20th year the list of guests appearing alongside them is endless and the longevity of NSA is down to them constantly pushing their sound and bringing back the artists they personally like to hear. Based in Galashiels, south of Edinburgh the duo use a small basement in their local football club with a capacity of only 120. Guests have included Andrew Weatherall, Slam, Ivan Smagghe and Justin Robertson and they have also hosted numerous parties in the Scottish capital including A Love From Outer Space.  NSA never stick to one genre expect; anything from weird disco to techno and the odd classic thrown in with this fine mix for us.

20160311 - Beatangers Closing For Jabberwocky @ Zig Zag, Paris, FR

Here's my set from the almighty Shindig Weekender 2016! My second year at the festival and I love it more each time! So many familiar friends, faces in one place at the same time. A gathering of like minded people and incredible talent! 
Recorded post Shindig, in my studio, all in one take to give you a feel of the (debatable)magic that happened. Some mixes aren't perfect, some cuts are! That's the breaks! I haven't got time to do a tracklisting but will post at a later date.

If your hating on the hypedit go whinge into your giz rag! It took me a while to come up with this set, practice and perform it live. The least you can do is leave a comment and give man a follow on Twitter.

Love you x

It's Too Funky In Here (Charlie Beale Regrooved Edit)

I Scoured up some long lost mix tapes (REAL cassette tapes!!) recently - from waaaaay back in my very early DJ'ing days (last century stylee, c.1990..something!) when I was a certified and dedicated hiphop n vinyl fiend. Turns out I unearthed a working tape deck too - so decided it was definitely time to digitise these puppies so they didn't get lost forever. 

PLEASE NOTE: Mixing and sound quality may sound a little rough (especially so on the earliest ones - whilst I was still honing my mixing skills) these are digitised versions of one take live vinyl mixes, originally recorded directly to cassette tapes (now very old and degraded)..in me bedroom.

Ghetto Funk & Shindig Weekender 2017 Competition Entry

Since Shindig weekender is a summer festival and to me these are all about sunshine and laughter, I took that into account. Couple of Latin flavoured Resense 7 inches became an outline for this 102 bpm mix, then it was completed with some feelgood Funky / Latin breaks tunes.

The mix was created using vinyl on 2 x Technics turntable and a Ecler Nuo5 mixer. Plus Audacity for little bit of post production.

Tracklist:
01_DJ Nu-Mark - Our Generation feat. Ernie Hines (Re-Edit)
02_DJ Nu-Mark - Tropicalifornia feat. Quantic
03_Quantic & Nickodemus - Mi Swing Es Tropical feat. Tempo & The Candela All-Stars
04_Daft Punk - Loose Yourself To Dance
05_Ree Keen - La Pollera Colora
06_Dedy Dread & DJ Rebel - Mambo Perez
07_Ree Keen - Mambacita

Ghetto Funk & Shindig Weekender 2017 Competition Entry - Jellyfunk Allstars

UPDATE: This mix landed me second place! 
Had loads of fun making it and loved being part of the whole thing.
Wicked to compete and make contact with so many dope DJ's...
Extra special thanks to Spinforth and the Ghetto Funk Fam for the props and shout outs.

Bit late to the party but here it is, my Shindig DJ contest entry...

Foolishly set myself the challenge of squeezing 30 tracks into 30 minutes so there's all sorts of goodness and badness to cram in your ear holes.

Made using 2xTechnics 1210's, TTm57sl, launchpad, serato, a bunch of my own edits and a few beers.

PS. I've just signed up to soundcloud to enter this this contest so come show some love, have a listen and if you like what you hear, well, you know what to do...

Heavy Stylus: An explosive amalgamation of Jamaican roots, hip hop beats, heavy soul breaks and blaxploitation ghetto-funk.

I’ve been rocking funk/soul/beats/hiphop/roots for around 20 years in various bars and clubs across the South West, and have supported a wide range of acts and artists such including Jelly Jazz, Boca 45, Andy Smith, Quantic, Craig Charles, DJ Food, Bonobo, Gilles Peterson, Ugly Duckling and DJ Format.

Although I started as a vinyl-only DJ in Bristol, these days I use a pair of battle-scarred Pioneer CDJs as my weapons of choice. I’m currently a resident (of 11 years) at the Angel Bar on Queen Street, and in the past have held Exeter-based residencies at The Monkey Suit, Timepiece, Dr. Inks and Verve (now Urban Underground), as well as DJing regularly for Hold it Down.

(Oh, and in addition to rocking the ones-and-twos, James Monkman is also one half of Exeter-based independent videogame development studio RGCD.DEV, hence the goofy twitter tag).
