Behold, a brand new mix for all you mother fuckers. 

For this one I broke away from my comfort zone to drop tracks I would usually listen to as a listener rather than mix as a DJ. I just pressed record and let nature take it's course; but most importantly of all, I enjoyed myself.

This mix sounded like it could have been recorded in 1991 at times and I had the most untold time recording it. It made me feel happy, and I hope it has the same effect on you.

Thank you for listening

ELEVATION X JUNC MIX COMP ENTRY

Manchild - Elevation 31.08.22

***WARNING / NOT THE BEST QUALITY SOUND / UP AND DOWN*** 

Behold, a 60 minute excerpt from my 90 minute warm-up set for Jody Wisternoff at Joshua Brooks, Manchester, on October 8th 2022. 

I had just bought the Tascam DR-05X that same day as I have always wanted to record mixes with crowd noise. Unfortunately, I don't think I set it up correctly at all as the recording seems to have all come from just the mics and not the line-in directly from the mixer, so I have uploaded the hour that sounds just about listenable. 

I'm really gutted about it as it was such an amazing night and I really enjoyed my set, and I think others did too as you will hear when you hear people shouting my name in parts. Asch Pintura B2B Redfeya and then Jody Wisternoff were just amazing and it's a night I will never forget.

I will learn from it anyway and I've heard other mixes uploaded from much bigger names than Manchild with similar sound quality so I know I'm not alone. I know it sounded mint on the night and I will learn from it for next time. 

Thank you for listening

Manchild - DJ Set for ‘Not So Famous’ 29.9.23

Behold, a recreation of part of my set from Joshua Brooks in Manchester when I supported the mighty Cristoph on December 2nd 2023, along with Nick Coulson and Mark McMahon who both played before me.

I was overjoyed and grateful to be given the slot handing over to Cristoph, but even more overjoyed to see him enjoying my set and then ask me if I'd like to play B2B with him for the last 20 minutes before handing over to him. It just went beautifully and I will never forget it, or his kindness. 

Unfortunately, my Tascam recording device didn't record as it should have on the night and I'm so gutted about it. It would have included the crowd noise and atmosphere created by that amazing crowd, but this recreation is the next best thing.

*A couple of tracks are improvised towards the end as I don't know the names of the tracks Cristoph played during our B2B.

Reborn

Manchild - Reborn (20/01/2021)

Manchild AKA Daz 'Manchild' Smith is a Greater Manchester based DJ with house music in its various guises flowing through his veins. Born and bred in Oldham, he has been hooked on music from the moment his Mum squirted him out and his style is almost impossible to pigeon hole due to him playing what he wants. Comfortable playing at any time; whether that be warmup, peak, closing time or sexy time, all the Manchild cares about is that the crowd have the most untold time. 

After only getting back into DJing in mid-2019 after a very long absence and a lot of catching up to do, both musically and with getting himself back up to speed with the latest DJ technology, he fell back in love with the progressive sound all over again and quickly became resident of Manchester brand 'Up Close and Personal Mcr' after catching the eye of promoter Andy Holdsworth. 

Whilst also indulging in breaks, melodic techno, indie dance, house, trance, power ballads and more, Manchild's versatility allows him to flit seamlessly between all of the above. 

Since late 2019 alone, he has regularly played with the likes of James Zabiela, John Digweed, Sasha, Nick Warren, Cristoph, Anthony Pappa, Jody Wisternoff (numerous times), Patrice Bäumel, Marsh, Nox Vahn, Jeremy Olander, Sébastien Léger, Roy Rosenfeld, Tim Green, Cosmic Gate, Grum, John 00 Fleming, Richie Blacker, Mr Sosa, Estiva, Boxer, Trilucid, My Friend, Fehrplay, Cream, Marcus James (Renaissance), Dave Pearce, Diode Eins, Tommy Farrow, John Kelly, Dave Beer, Asch Pintura, Redfreya and many more at venues such as London's Studio 338, Ministry of Sound, EGG, the Steel Yard; Manchester's Progress, Stage & Radio, and not to mention his many appearances at his favourite venue - Joshua Brooks'. 

With his own night 'You Think You Know Me' in the pipeline, there is plenty more to come from the Manchild hun.

Thank you for listening
