About the CD:
During the late 90's this one CD was the soundtrack to many a hazy Sunday afternoons, playing in the background as you recovered from the night (or morning) before and dreamed of lying on a sun kissed beach in Ibiza rather than a (hopefully) sun kissed bedroom in Sunderland.

The opening Orange Sunshine sets an almost haunting scene with it's long dramatic strings, Alania's 'Flower Garden' also brings a sound which you could only imagine coming from this white isle. A Man Called Adam's 'All my favourite people' is another stand out track amongst so many others. Truly magical stuff. Please enjoy the mix and buy the cd. x

David Holmes is one of the initial, great, electronic artists hailing from Belfast. This 1993 Essential Mix is an abstract of his varied sound palate and the peak time cuts expected at his co-run, infamous, Sugar Sweet parties. We love!

Brothers Gonna Work It Out

277 - The Chemical Brothers ‎– Brothers Gonna Work It Out (1998)

An upload of Soulwax's "Most of the Remixes..." continuous mix because I couldn't find it as one track without the hidden track "Stella Maris (Soulwax Remix)" at the beginning.

Soulwax - Most Of The Remixes... [Disc 2] (Continuous Mix)

This time I bring you a classic set from 2005 with Radio Soulwax / 2 Many DJ's, where they were live behind the decks at BBC 1, 2nd of January, 2005 doing a proper uptempo mix with a lot of variation in styles, sound and mood - musical soulfood in a classic Soulwax way of doing things. I enjoyed the set very much and so I decided to share it with you. I hope you get something out of this, because I surely did.

I ripped a DASH audio stream, which was encoded with Opus 251 @ 160 kbps, from YouTube and rendered it with the Vorbis codec into an ogg file at 320 kbps. I then refurbished the wave data with two FabFilter VST3 plugs where Audacity worked as an interface for the workflow. It doesn't sound very advanced, I know, but less is sometimes more; the more minimal a system is the lower the risk of fail.

Q3 (EQ) - The standout feature is the dynamic EQ mode - a simple ‘dynamic range’ dial accompanies the regular gain parameters on Pro-Q3’s interface, allowing you to quickly add compression or expansion to specific frequency bands. The plugin’s carefully-designed algorithm sets the attack, release and threshold automatically, streamlining and simplifying the compression process. Dynamic EQ changes the gain of an EQ band dynamically, depending on the level of the input signal. This makes it possible to perform subtle and surgical edits similar to a multi-band compressor.

L2 (Limiter) - Loudness cannot be easily measured, because perceived loudness depends on frequencies and can be highly subjective. Peak Normalization and Hard Limiting led to make the audio louder, without having a firm reference. The sophisticated ITU-R BS.1770 algorithm, through psychoacoustic models, introduced a new standard for measurements: the aforementioned Loudness Units, which refers to the perceived loudness. The EBU R128 suggests a -23LU loudness target, although this target may vary on different countries and applications. I set L2 to work around a target loudness between -12LU and -9LU because CDDA target format uses these values and I want the final wave to be perceived as loud without clipping or having other kinds of artefacts in the sound.
