machine_logic, a curator of deep, hypnotic, progressive dance grooves with a delicate, ethereal chemistry. Always digging deep, his emotive selections tell his story. He cut his teeth in 1999 at KGRG-Auburn as both music director and host of their industrial radio program, Propaganda Department. From there came a spattering of one-off gigs and club nights, wandering through a variety of styles, before amassing a collection of the emotive and uplifting side of techno, house and breaks. While the music he plays is happy and soulful, he’s never afraid to reference his dark roots and heat up the dance floor. He’s played throughout the Pacific Northwest, with jumps down the West Coast. He loves playing nightclubs, rooftops, outdoors, and festivals.

Supergloss quickly conquered the modern electronic music scene with her sincere and melodic sound. Inspired by the acid and trance of the 90s and 00s, Lina not only borrows key elements of the rave sound but also reinterprets them, giving them a fresh look and a modern sensibility. Her music combines sensuality and drama expressed in pads and leads with the fighting character of the 303 acid synth, which completely reflects her persona - strong, but gentle.

In a short time, Supergloss has not only found her audience but also become a significant figure in the European electronic scene. She skillfully balances between festival and club sounds, without limiting her creative potential to genres.

After hundreds of gigs, nights of digging and endless hours of attending raves - these factors led her to the idea of creating her own multi-genre label X-IZE, inspired by the rave culture of the ’90s. Rather than preserving it as-is, the label transforms cultural memory through the lens of the present.

X-IZE releases audiovisual content across genres and formats, capturing both personal and collective experiences of unity - then and now.

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. 

For any CD recommendations, bookings, mixes or feedback you can catch me as @asapgareth on Instagram. Or you can check our my design work at www.acid.works
