Downtown Disco Vol.9

I couldn't tell you how much has gone into producing this mix. It has truly been a labour of love. Thanks to all the people who have provided inspiration along the way, you know who you are, and to everyone who has followed and supported me over the years.

This is not a sequenced mix, I hit the record button and used my hands to actually mix it :)

After losing my connection with old skool for a fair amount of time, I took some time out and pressed the big 'reset' button. So I'm pleased to present my set from Shine at Leeds Warehouse, it went down really well...thank you to everybody that was there, you were a great crowd. x

Ian Ossia DJ Mix Renaissance VENUE44 1992 320kbs

This is a recreation of the famous tape recorded live from Renaissance, Venue 44, and given out exclusively to members on a subsequent night. It has been remastered and kept true to the original, with just a little reworking and that big chunky 'Tape' sound, without the quality loss :)
I hope you enjoy it, as always it's great to hear your comments.

Renaissance 25 Year Anniversary - 05/12/1992 Venue 44 Remastered

Renaissance 25 Year Anniversary - 05/12/1992 Venue 44 (Remastered)

So I just sat down and hit record and played some lovely old renaissance favorites from around 25 years ago (don't pull me if they're not, it was unplanned and freestyling). As they're all my vinyl rips there's the odd wobble here and there! I guess that's the original beauty of vinyl...it isn't BPM perfect.
It's the first mix I've done live since changing to Pioneer Rekordbox and DDJ-RX controller. I hope you enjoy it x
