STARRING KERMIT LEVERIDGE, EVM128 & THE REYNOLDS
FEATURING BB. JAMES (LEAD VOCAL 'GIVE IT AWAY')

Uplifting, life-affirming, and perfectly timed for the summer months - cobbled together, Heath Robinson stylee, more by serendipity than design, into a coherent whole by DJ / Producer Greg Wilson. Most of the tracks featured are by Blind Arcade (Kermit Leveridge & EVM128), either existing demos or works in progress, but the mixtape is also peppered with half-a-dozen GW edits, lyrically laced to bubble the Super Weird stew – the constant presence, and main ingredient, being Kermit, for it's his inspirational tale of faith and redemption at the very core of this morphogenetic mixtape. Following on from the Ruthless Rap Assassins and Black Grape, we believe that this is his greatest musical odyssey, drawing from the deep wells of his own mythos and logos. There were 3 frontmen in the Rap Assassins, 2 in Black Grape, but now, for the first time, Kermit steps to the fore – no longer to be described by such a limited term as 'rapper', but as a sabre-skilled vocal chameleon, his shades and depths ranging from wise old soul to lovestruck adolescent, invoking his many I's as a cast of compelling characters, both comic book and close–up personal, whilst, in trickster tradition, keeping us on our toes, not knowing what to expect next.

Let me take you by the hand
So you know what's going on
Let me take you step by step 
On a journey that won't take too long
Come let me show you
Reality is not what it seems
It's all a construct
And what you see might not be real

Thanks to all who contributed to the various stages of recording – Blind Arcade’s Kermit Leveridge & EVM128, of course, studio engineer Derek Kaye, singers BB. James, Amy Wilson, Katherine Reynolds, Carmel Reynolds and Tracey Carmen, trumpeter Kevin G. Davey, saxophonist Marc Rockwood, special guest vocalists Howard Marks and MC Tunes, plus Martin Foster, Ollie Miles, Ché Wilson, Sam Heller, Alexis Billington and Asha Billington, who also leant a hand along the way. It’s wonderful what spells we can muster when our magic is combined.

Blind Arcade Meets Super Weird Substance In The Morphogenetic Field (Greg Wilson Mixtape)

Recording from my final appearance at the Garden Festival in Croatia earlier this month when I played the Main Stage on the Friday night. The Garden, of course, was a gathering close to my heart - I'd appeared there every year from 2007 onwards, enjoying many memorable nights and days in Zadar, Tisno and on the Adriatic. Best wishes to Charlotte, Gail, Eddie & Nick and the crew behind the Garden, as well as Dave Harvey, who takes over the event next year, re-branding as Love International, and hopefully building from the solid legacy now in place.

Thanks for all the fun, love and good vibes I've experienced throughout these past 9 summers.

112 KBPS FILES - DON'T BE A DUNCE!!!

Hot on the heels of the "Hold On / Take It Slow EP" we've got a grip of new remixes of this pair of sun-drenched tunes by LUXXURY!

On the A-side Whatever/Whatever (Justin Strauss + Bryan Mette) work 'Hold On' into a piano house stomper, and A Vision Of Panorama filters 'Take It Slow' through beachy balearic optics. On the flip, Greg Wilson & Peza layer 'Hold On' in driving nu disco vibes, with just a touch of acid, and JKriv takes 'Take It Slow' into deep future funk territory.

Out April 13th on sunny yellow vinyl!!

Live recording of Greg Wilson from The Haçienda Residents Party @ Sankeys in Manchester 27.12.16.

I’d decided to go for an early 80s vibe on this, playing edits alongside originals of some classics and cult–classics from my time at Legend in Manchester rather than The Haçienda, although all of these tracks were played at The Haçienda at some point or other, either by myself or original resident Hewan Clarke. Great to see Hewan, Mike Pickering, Graeme Park, Jon DaSilva, Chad Jackson, Tom Wainwright and Allister Whitehead – it was quite a gathering of eras.
