Going back in time to my R.A mix from 2007. Found this and thought I'd post it up.

SimonBaker - R.A Mix - May 2007

In the three years since Simon Baker released his debut album for 2020 Vision, he’s steadily built upon the acclaim the deftly produced work garnered him. Bolstering his already active career with a move to London, which enabled a hook up with Jamie Jones, his new locale also led to a fortuitous relationship with Geddes and his riotous Nofitstate outfit, for whose label Baker provided the first release at the end of last year. Becoming a firm part of leading the label's general operations, Baker is also responsible for signing up the work of Berlin's Matthew Styles, rising talents Mr. Tophat & Art Alfie and even A1 Bassline, who showcased some of his house persuasions on his Outsider EP. 

With the collective set to head Room Three at the end of November with Geddes and the aforementioned Mr. Tophat & Art Alfie joining the former Leeds resident, we jumped at the offer to present Baker’s latest mix, a recording which shows us what music he’s currently feeling the most.

An afternoon housey set I did at BPM this year for the Last Night On Earth Party. Live on Be-At TV

Last Night On Earth - Blue Parrot - BPM 2015 Mexico (Afternoon House Set)

Soul Clap: Flashback Winter Music Conference 2008. In our hands, 100 copies of the first Soul Clap record a cute yellow 10″ called The Giraffe released on Airdrop. Now picture a backyard bbq at a bar formerly known as PS14 and a bunch of the world’s best DJs and America’s dance music industry wearing cheap sunglasses and getting their schmooze and booze on…

At the time we didn’t realize it, but looking back, Crazy Larry and Taimur + Fahad’s Cheap Sunglasses party was probably the moment that American dance music came together to form the movement it is today and we were there, wet around the ears and giving out copies of our vinyl to our idols.

So what does this winding story have to do with this Episode of The Adventures of Soul Clap? One of characters we met was a DJ named Simon Baker from Leeds, UK. Maybe you’ve heard of him? He had one of the bombs of 2007 in Plastik and just released an awesome album on 20:20 Vision?! Well, we were overjoyed to get him a copy of The Giraffe and not only was he sweet enough to sit down, have a chat and offer words of encouragement, but we immediately bonded and partied together a few weeks later in New York.

Since then Simon has always been one of our biggest supporters. From charting our tracks to coming to hang at our first gig in Leeds with all of 30 other people, Mr. Baker has been what the brits call a “legend, mate”. So when he asked to do us a podcast we were honored to have him on board and boy did he deliver with a mix of perfectly chilled morning house to take you back to your wigwam. And let us tell you, after a weekend staying in a Wigwam at Glastonbury we know just what he’s talking about when he says:

"This mix is based on the kinda vibes i would typically play back at my wigwam after hours, or just generally when i am in a nice deep and groovy sunny mood. I like wigwams, and i love merry go rounds even more… enjoy" Simon.

A recent promo mix i did for Fabric before djing at the club in London.

Simon Baker - Fabric Podcast Mix (Aug 11) * download enabled *

Simon Baker flitters between techno and house like a synth-obsessed butterfly, his deft touch behind the decks is also somewhat reminiscent of our winged friends. He's just released the debut offering on his brand new label, suitably named Simon Baker Presents BKR Projekt, which sees a return to his techno roots. To celebrate this aural rebirth, we asked Mr Baker to supply us with an hour of aural goodness filled with bigger beats than you'll know what to do with.

That's right, it's time to go DOOF DOOF and get the roof clinging on for dear life. Crack this mix right open as we natter on with its curator; http://www.theransomnote.co.uk/music/mixes/simon-baker-the-go-doof-doof-ransom-note-mix/

INTERVIEW

Simon Baker - The 'Go Doof Doof' Ransom Note Mix

It takes a lot to make us blush. Just ask Kim from accounts. Thus, we were interested just what gets those capillaries expanding for DT favourite Simon Baker as he preps his ‘The Blush’ EP for his burgeoning techno imprint, BKR Projekt.

Having made his name harnessing a seamless cross pollination of the best sounds two of electronic music biggest scenes - Techno and House – have to offer, Baker has always been a DJ and producer who has operated on his own distinct, terms.

Long considered one of the most respected figures in electronic music, the Leeds man has gone on to play some of the worlds most illustrious clubs from with London’s Fabric and Berlin’s Panorama Bar and Watergate all having played host to his talents in recent years. Thus it was with considerable excitement that we received word that he would be embarking upon a new project in 2015, with the London based maestro launching a new label and alias to release a number of “stripped back grooving techno” records.

Both known as BKR Projekt, the imprint and moniker are now on their third record with the aforementioned ‘The Blush’ EP following on from dancefloor ready releases, The Ebony and ‘The Saffron’ EPs. Billed as a return to a more “European sound” and “reflecting the creative autonomy of the label and its output” you can check out Simon’s hour long mix as BKR Projekt for us now. Expect big things from him under the name in 2016…

For our first November show, it was hosted by our new crew member Sam Karam...and we were delighted to have B.K.R, aka Simon Baker, join us.

An inaugural release on Drumcode was followed by music on Fina White, Alan Fitzpatrick’s Whistle Blower, and remixes for Rydim (Italo Johnson) and Paris Brightledge (Paranoid London) on Hot Creations. Having come to the end of a road with his material under the Simon Baker name, we got chatting to B.K.R about his future plans and got a glimpse of his forthcoming release on Dusky's 17 Steps.

B.K.R’s vinyl and digital imprint, BKR Projekt, launched with an EP featuring a remix from techno favorite Skudge. With early support from major players like Loco Dice, Laurent Garnier, Ben Klock and Ryan Elliott, this forward thinking artist is one to sit back and watch develop.

Simon Baker @ Kehakuma (Space Terrace - Ibiza July 2010)

One sided limited edition vinyl only run (300 copies) and digital due on Nov 22nd.....of the huge Radio Slave remix of Simon Baker’s "Too Slow". From Simon's forthcoming album "Traces" on 2020 Vision in 2011. This track has only been previously heard on the Ralph Lawson "We Love" mix CD. With a remix titled "Parorama Garage Mix" we should know what to expect from the offset really. A heavy, punchy kick / bass pattern that hits you just below the ribs is the glue that holds this particular beast together. Add to this discordant, ketamine influenced sounds that cause disorientation, tension and drama; on this particular example it sounds like hordes of machine-insects feasting on neon corpses. The arrangment builds slowly but continuously, in that ever-peaking fashion that the Berliners love so much. Sublime, driving, super-late night club music (don't try playing this before 4am please), and so darkly glorious with it. Micro-breakdowns and rising string parts WILL take you close to climax. Head for the smoke machine, close your eyes and enjoy the ride...

An afternoon beach set I did at this years BPM festival which went out live on Sonica Fm in Ibiza. Few classics on here, was a set very much in tune with the view from the decks of the ocean, the beach, the sunshine, the people and the general nice vibes down there that day! (Even with a shitty virus!) :)
