Next up on the @idlecellars mix series we have the legendary Phil Mison. One of my favourite DJ’s (and humans) his history alone is enough to warrant anyone’s respect but his music truly speaks for itself. I’m delighted to offer this exquisite journey from someone I consider to be an unsung hero of sorts. Certainly a hero of mine. He was there from day one. Some history here for those that don’t know his roots, in his own words…

“Cafe Del Mar opened in 1980, but never had a resident dj until José Padilla started  in 1991. I'd heard him play there that year and bought some tapes from him. I didn't go back in 92 but made a couple of tapes that a friend went out and gave him, similar stuff to what he was playing. Later that year i met him in Tag records in soho. He remembered the tapes and i invited him along to the Milk Bar where i was resident at the time. 

In early march 1993, José had an offer to go and DJ in asia and asked me if i wanted to cover for him at the Café Del Mar while he was away. Of course i said yes and a couple of weeks later he turned up at the Milk Bar with plane tickets and the keys to his house. I flew out at the end of March and played every day until the first week of May. I returned to London as i still had my residency at the Milk Bar and other gigs at the Ministry & Gardening Club. I went back for my birthday in September, played a couple more times and just hung out listening to music. 

José returned to London later that year for the winter. He asked if i wanted to be resident with him for the whole summer of 1994. I flew out late may and stayed until late september. I met quite a few people out there that year including Paul Daley, which led me onto becoming Leftfields tour DJ in 1996. Also Kennneth Bager, Harvey and a few others that are still good friends today.” Enjoy friends 🐬

it's been a while... and we're back with a gentle bang a.k.a. a mix of the amazing Sanky @sankywashere!! 
Many of you will have had the pleasure to dive into his selections at other sites. Being a fan for a good while I dared to ask him for a mix and now we installed a window to his universe here at the bin too! As I always enjoyed the variety and finesse of his mixes I asked for his musical background and Sanky was so nice to share this with us: 
"My mother was a piano teacher and sometimes practiced with various classical musicians who were playing at city hall so the house almost always had strange, orchestral sounds emanating from the dusty front room. I can't play a note of piano as my hands don't seem to want to work together as 10 fingers but I can play some wind instruments and loved learning the trumpet, these strange organic sounds are something that I now realize feature heavily when out looking for records, weird sounds seem to mean as much as beautiful lyrics these days. I also think the varied pace of classical from Adagio all up to Presto might have influenced me more than I thought too. I've never really understood music in terms of bpm's but more on feeling. I'm 51 and I feel really lucky to grow up in a pre internet world on rare soul and jazz, boogie, soundtracks, samples and hip hop which provided another view of how incredibly different music really can be. Hearing Colin Curtis screaming down the mic at age 15 playing Margie Evans “Waterfalls” or watching David Mancuso drop “Whole Lotta Love” after Tamiko Jones “Can’t Live Without Your Love’ at 6pm in the afternoon and watch people lose their minds are things I feel truly lucky to have witnessed, genius at work for sure.
 
I just still look out for the oddness, especially on 7” as there is still so much undiscovered music there but also something that sounds familiar even when it’s not. I live in Mexico now and again due to what I hear day to day in the street (not just necessarily music) changes what I collect, the feeling of life here is softer and slower so this mix might have a piece of that in it. I hope you listen to the mix all the way through in a comfortable place you feel happy to be in. It has some of my most favorite records I play over and over…big love.

Let me know if you want to know what any of the tracks are and thanks to the main man Basso who’s been an inspiration for years. 

Cocktails on the beach for all…x

Dedicated to My Mother Kate. RIP."

THANKS SO MUCH SANKY!!!

Proto Mix 001 - Jeepsooni

An EP that was simply made for fun. I started taking my music too seriously (despite facing little to no pressure) and got to a point of not enjoying it. I gave myself no time limit and made whatever sounded "cool" and enjoyable to me. I spliced both old demos and scrapped sounds with new ones, and I this is the most genuine fun I've had making a project thus far.
