An extended, unedited 90 minutes garage mix recorded in one take - apologies for a couple of wobbly transitions, I haven't played some of these tracks in YEARS. 

I mixed this for Rinse FM's Garage Hour show, but was having so much fun playing the classics and digging the crates for the less obvious tracks that I wanted to carry on a bit!

If you were a UK Garage DJ in the late 90's you'll hopefully appreciate this. These are the tracks many people forget about, and it was this darker side of the 2 step garage sound that stemmed genres like Grime and Dubstep in their early stages. 

A proper mix for the DJ's and heads alike to enjoy, and for the uneducated of you out there to get your ears around the kind of stuff I was playing in my very early days as a bedroom DJ.

Studio team members Just Blaze, Mike Banks, Passarani, Ango and Deradoorian (the last two also Academy alumni) got together to produce an all-kill-no-filler jam. With shades of Detroit techno and ’80s funk/boogie, and Deradoorian’s lilting vocals over ethereal and infectious synth melodies, “Touch Your Body” should be pumping from the speakers of every rollerskating rink still left on this planet.

Solid Steel returns with brand new and exclusive mixes from Four Tet and Trevor Jackson.

For this special show we have Kieran Hebden - AKA Four Tet - partnered with Trevor Jackson - founder of Output Recordings, the independent record label he ran between 1996 and 2006. 

Both artists have a long history with the show (this is Hebden’s 7th appearance and Jackson's 3rd), as well as with each other. Hebden’s early releases as part of Fridge and his first solo release - the 1997 "Double Density" single under the artist name 4T Recordings - were released on Output. The label was also home to the first releases under his Four Tet Alias, including 1998 singles "Thirtysixtwentyfive" and "Misnomer", and 1999's “Glasshead"/"Calamine" single and first full-length album “Dialogue”. Jackson also released music on the label as Skull and Open Music and elsewhere including his work as Playgroup.

Speaking about the mix and his history with Jackson, Hebden told us: “This is a mix of music from all over the place that I’ve been enjoying and getting inspired by in recent times.  A snapshot of my personal listening world. Some of the way I search for music and the way I DJ was learnt from Trevor Jackson so his influence is always in what I do in some way.  I met him when I was a teenager and he introduced me to loads of records with all different styles and origins and also showed me ways to bring these sounds into the future through sampling and DJing. This open minded approach to listening and sound I think is one of the great strengths particularly of producers who came from hip hop in the 80’s and 90’s because there was such a strong incentive to explore all types of music in the search for samples. The passion and enthusiasm for listening and discovering music that comes from this is something I have huge respect for"

SOLID STEEL 03.07.19 - FOUR TET

A brash, funky and raw blend that’ll have you pining for the club.

Occa­sion­al­ly, new DJs are thrust onto the glob­al club and fes­ti­val cir­cuit before they’re quite ready. It could be off the back of their pop­u­lar pro­duc­tions, or part­ly thanks to their con­tacts, or an engag­ing social media pres­ence. By the time Mike Servi­to reached the sta­tus of an ​‘inter­na­tion­al DJ’, he’d spent years earn­ing his stripes. 

Born and raised in Detroit, Servi­to expe­ri­enced the tech­no scene which is so dear­ly respect­ed, ref­er­enced and researched by ravers across the world. Mov­ing to NYC in the ​‘00s, he grad­u­al­ly built up a rep­u­ta­tion as a pas­sion­ate, ener­getic skil­ful DJ, and he became res­i­dent at Brook­lyn club­night The Bunker – a posi­tion he still holds to this day.

Five years ago, Res­i­dent Advi­sor referred to Mike Servi­to as one of Detroit and New York City’s ​“best kept secrets.” For some time now, the secret’s been out – Panora­ma Bar, Move­ment Detroit and Dek­man­tel are a few of the big gigs he’s ticked off the list. For The Face’s mix series, Servi­to has deliv­ered a pas­sion­ate blend of tech­no, house, elec­tro and acid that’ll con­jure up hazy mem­o­ries of the sweaty dance­floor expe­ri­ence from the com­fort of your home or desk.
