i've done something special for this mix, two hours of King Unique tracks & remixes picked out from fourteen years & ninety releases. i've had a lot of fun pulling out old boxes of vinyl, DAT tapes & CD backups, (not to mention encountering some dodgy old press shots along the way) & even found a couple of unreleased gems from ten years back - original dubs of 'Sugarhigh' & Underworld's 'Two Months Off' anybody?

i've tried to include a little of everything, from early house days on Defected to dark tribal on Junior Boys Own & the melodic techno of Bedrock - plus the remixes for pretty much every major & indie label under the sun. it would've taken four or five hours just to include everyone's favourites in a 'definitive' mix so this is simply how KU looked to me in one week of looking back in 2013. if i missed out your essential KU i'll maybe do this again one day; & of course there's still all those bootlegs lying around doing nothing...

it goes without saying that this mix is as much about my original partner in KU Matthew Roberts as it is about me. we sat in the studio together 5 days a week 8 or 9 hours a day between 1999 & 2006 making this stuff - then scurried home to see our families briefly before heading off to the airport or motorway for the weekend. 

thanks matthew - thanks families x

extra big thank you to the folks at friskyRadio for airing this mix over the last month - here it is finally for you diehard soundclouders - & as a special thank you for waiting so long it's a 320 download

Seb Dhajje - Keep Hope' mix

This week our journey takes us to the magical country of Australia, and her beautiful people and climate that seem an ideal stop point for finding the freshest underground sounds we can. Its here we find an Ex-Pat doing rather well for himself. From Northern Ireland originally but making big waves down under, ladies and gents give it up... for Mark Craven!!

With an incredible history in the UK & AUS dance music scenes, Northern Irish DJ Mark Craven continues to scale the heights and is one of Sydneys most respected DJs... and for very good reason. Technically perfect, a foolproof knack for reading a room, with expertise lying in the lush surrounds of deep melodic and progressive through to gritty paths of minimal techno.

In 2019 he released on Hernan Cattaneo's SUDBEAT imprint and has remixes out this week on onedotsixtwo and If you wait.

Being such a versatile DJ, Mark holds residencies at Return to Rio and Church of Techno and is annually booked for almost every major Sydney house music festival.
Craven's poignant progressive taste and flow makes him a favourite in the big city!!

Enjoy the Mix!

PFG The Progcast - Episode 32 - Mark Craven

Happy Canadian Thanksgiving weekend! It has been over 4 months since I've had the time to put together a new mix for my Chilling Moments series so I spent some time putting together what I hope is a very enjoyable and satisfying 2 hour listening experience.

I really never limit myself to current music when putting these mixes together and this allows me a fair bit of freedom when it comes to possible material and also a chance to revisit some of my favourites that never made it to a mix. It also comes in handy since no track really makes it into more than one of my mixes.

Loads of great material on this mix from luscious melodic deep house to driving melodic techno and even a tiny little bit of breaks all put together in my signature style.

I hope this music finds you well and if you weren't well to begin with you are a little more-so afterward! Until next time. :)

King Unique is Matt Thomas, an all round studio junkie and dj with a taste for tripped-out cosmic techno and rough-edged underground house; in a career spanning nearly a decade KU’s distinctive sound has won an enviable global following. A ceaseless schedule of dj sets and festival gigs backed up by relentless studio sessions resulting in scores of records, remixes and radio broadcasts has made the KU sound an instantly recognizable part of the music-life of millions of the world’s clubbers - and a fixture in the vinyl crates, cd wallets and laptops of the world’s most influential djs. Consistently appealing across genres the tracks have been played by everyone from John Digweed to Soulwax, Richie Hawtin to Tiesto, and have turned up everywhere from Hollywood soundtracks to mobile ringtones - not to mention countless compilations and mix albums.  

Formed in 2001 by Matt Thomas & Matthew Roberts, King Unique hit the floor running, claiming the title of Undisputed Remix Champs by scoring five Essential New Tunes in five months on Pete Tong's "Essential Selection" Radio 1 show. A US Billboard Dance Chart number 1 for the remix of Dirty Vegas’ “Walk Into The Sun”, plus two more solo Essential New Tunes for Matt under his Watkins and Mainframe alter-egos saw KU firmly cement their place amongst the ranks of first-call remixers. The King Unique production touch has been in constant demand since, appearing on more than sixty remixes and yielding some of the biggest dance floor bombs known to man - Underworld's "Two Months Off", The Killers "Somebody Told Me", Planet Funk’s “The Switch”, John Dahlback's "Late Night Worries", and Tracey Thorn’s "Grand Canyon". 

2006 saw the end of the original duo’s studio partnership, as Matt Thomas took on the King Unique role as a solo artist. The four years since have seen the KU sound rise to new heights with a mixture of euphoric acidic melodies, dark brooding techno vibes and old skool beats. This new 'cosmic techno' has found it's home on John Digweed's Bedrock label with the release of "2000000 Suns" and the KU / Anthony Pappa collaboration “Vamoosh”. Backing up the new material have been remixes of John Digweed’s “Bilder”, Hernan Cattaneo’s “Teleport”, Fergie’s “PCP” and an on-going association with James Lavelle’s UNKLE project that has so far resulted in five stunning re-workings; “Heaven”, "Heavy Drug", “The Answer”, “Reign feat. Ian Brown” & “Rabbit In Your Headlights feat. Thom Yorke” - all adding up to reaffirm Matt's status as one of the most versatile and consistent producers of the last ten years.

The renowned King Unique dj set has made KU a regular addition to the line up of some of the world's most respected clubs and biggest festivals, playing everywhere from ultra-hip blacked-out sweat boxes in Tokyo to euphoric crowds of thousands on the tropical beaches of Madeira. An increasingly hectic international schedule has seen Matt racking up enough air-miles for a free trip to the moon, with gigs in Sydney, Panama, Budapest, Seoul, Helsinki, Mexico City, Dubai, Rosario, Bogota, Kazantip, Vilnius - just to name a handful. Since the very first shows Matt has pushed at the cutting edge of the technology revolution that's swept through club culture, taking laptops, new gadgets and studio gear into the booth. 2010 saw the addition of the near mythic Monome controller to the sonic armoury - part track-mangling Ableton controller and part psychedelic light show, lovingly hand built by techno-hippies in the Catskill Mountains. 

Matt + Mac + Monome = Beats + Bleeps = KU Live 

See you by the speakers ;)
