Erupting from the depths of Australia’s hip hop and drum and bass scene comes a dynamic new sound of Melbourne’s own Wasabi. The long awaited first solo release, ‘Calm Before The Storm,’ is a five-track EP that seamlessly traverses a sonic landscape through psychedelic valleys and over ambient contours of earthy street beats. 

In 2012 Wasabi, internationally renowned proponent of turntablizm detours explore an eclectic audio science that takes the listener on a journey through the diversity of glitch, dub, industrial breaks and minimal tech with intricate fusion of wickedly crooked beats, liquid bass lines and smooth atmospheric frequencies, producing a soundscape that satisfies the hunger of every beat-fiend.  With a live show incorporating a horn section, percussion as well as an array of talented vocalists, mc’s and dancers, Wasabi offers a fresh translation of passion and emotion into sonic harmony.

Hey, Gareth here, I'm a graphic designer who start designing for clubs, parties, and labels in the late 90s. Back then, mix CDs were the holy grail of both design and music. I loved them.

But I wasn't the only one, mix cds were the soundtracks of our nights, our days, our afterparties and lives, for everyone. Yet in today's internet age, the art form has been lost (or just changed) to 2-3 hour online mixes and streaming videos, which just don't create the same magic your CD collection did. Just 60 minutes of music and incredible artwork.

The Classic Mix CD Series celebrates these discs, their soundtrack, their box art and your memories. We hope you enjoy it.

Also, we try to help you find and buy them again by sharing Discogs links on all featured CDs and or direct links to labels where possible.

* We fully support labels and artists. If any disc creates a copyrighting issue let me know and it will be immediately removed.

About Gareth:
Digital creative type, gamer, music lover and occasional DJ. Currently living between Dubai & Seoul after setting sail from Sunderland in 2010. As a young designer, club and music culture was the driving force for his work, producing artwork for local club nights and record labels in the North East of England. In particular, DJ mix cds and their packaging were always his 'holy grail of design', especially those from Renaissance, Global Underground and Good Looking Records. It's a pleasure to share these discs back with people and they still influence our tastes to this day.
