This week The Don Craig Smith stands in for me providing a 2 hour house music masterclass demonstrating the reason behind the longevity of his career that spans decades and has taken him around the world.

Craig never fails to deliver a very different set every time I hear him whether he be playing house, soul, funk or hip hop and is one of the most diverse and exciting DJ's out there.

Craig also is a member of Soul Renagades with partner Ricky Reid and The 6th Borough Project along side Graeme Clark.

Craig has also this year started up his own label 'Beyond Tomorrow' on which he has put out 2 EP's so far with more exciting releases looming in the not to distant future (link for his Bandcamp page below).

I hope you enjoy his show as much as I did.

Peace x

RHR Craig Smith August 2023

An enthusiast for all that is House. Dancer, listener but not an artist, producer,dj or promoter. 

Disco, Edits and feel good House music. 

Shared with love and admiration. Mixed on vinyl.

After finding the rave scene in 1990, Lee bought his first set of decks a year or two later. Initially influenced by the music in the North West and clubs like Legends (Warrington), The Quad, Cream, The Hacienda he started his music collection and would play at parties, the odd bar gig and create mixtapes for friends.

Fast forward to the turn of the decade (and century!), now living in London, Lee was part of an underground party collective called Most Excellent, putting on parties at various South London venues such as Brockwell Park Lido and The Telegraph (Brixton), playing classic, funky and soulful house music playing alongside a few notable guests like Trevor Fung and Stuart Patterson. 

After a break of about 10 years to get married and start a family, he started listening to the likes of Fingerman, LNTG, The Reflex and was hooked on the underground edits and disco scene. The decks were dusted off and he started to buy music again…

Lee is now proud to be part of the #DiscoWaltons family, a DJ, Producer and music fan collective who frequent the chatrooms of some of the best music shows and livestreams available to humankind!

Craig Smith & Graeme Clark (The Revenge) have worked together in the studio for over 25 years, crafting quality house jams and exploring long forgotten funk and dusty disco dubs. Their output on the revered Delusions Of Grandeur label, reinforced by their extended genre-spanning back-to-back DJ sets has helped carve their reputation as trusted producers and selectors.
