2021 was an amazing year for us at Musty Head Records, and by Christ are we ready to step it up a gear in 2022. 

Keeping true to Musty tradition, we are kicking things off by championing a man with a very bright future ahead of himself. 

Harry Cochran aka Hazr, has been making waves since he set up the Magic Carpet label a couple of years ago with fellow Co-Pilot Sam Applebee. 

Releases from artists such as DJ Void, Planar Traits, Ramu and Baby Rollen have become stalwarts in a steady number of sets and mixes, with Joe Delon showing his fellow Portuguese neighbours a serious amount of support and love, as he took to the decks in Lisbon’s Lux Frágil Club for Magic Carpet’s first event. No doubt, this one went off!!

We’ve been sitting on this mix for a while now, but having finally met Harry at the Lion and Lamb in London last month, it only felt right we open up the new year with this one. 

Pleasure to have you on Sir, and stay locked in on this one guys – big things to come from Harry and Magic Carpet this year!

So with summer coming to a close for another year, and with a change in season approaching, Number 21 in the series arrives courtesy of Mr Ollie Blunt 🎶🇬🇧

The London based artist has kindly prepared us with just over an hour of predominately mid to late 80’s records…he’s definitely not disappointed! 🕺🏽

Having played at many clubs in the UK, and with poddy’s available on various music outlets such as Nuances de Nuit, Fraise and more on SoundCloud, we’re happy to host another mix which is different to any other in the series. 🙏🏽

Big thanks to Ollie for the mix and we hope you enjoy!

@gasper-skerl

Yes, yes! We are back with the latest Musty Mix and this one comes courtesy of our good friend Gap.

Calling Ljubljana home, Gap’s been diggin and playing records for the last 7 years and has developed a keen ear for the dreamy and groovy sound we love here at MHR. 

Recently joining outfits like od:vod, just us, Luckison and K4 club, Gap’s ever growing presence across the scene is something we’re buzzing to see and support, and expect much more of.

This mix is on the gentler side with a blend of modern sounds and we think it fits the seasonal shift to Autumn pretty damn beautifully.

Enjoy, and thanks again to Gap for providing the goods!

Centrifug, (Renato) is the man behind the ever-growing and inspiring – Pressure Nights. 

Hosting the likes of Hicham, Trails Bucharest, Vass and Tho to name a few, he is the driving force behind the nightlife in Cluj and is forever on the hunt for new spaces throughout the city and beyond. This mix showcases his extensive record collection with a big nod to the 90s. 

Huge thanks to Renato for his welcomed addition to the series.

So we’re back with another Musty Mix to grace your ears, this one coming in from Jacob Tr!p. 

As with Musty tradition, we’re all about giving the artist free rein and creativity when it comes to putting their stamp on the series and this one’s no different. 🌀

In his own words, Jacob describes this as mix as ‘Earth Music’. A made up term that focuses on acoustic incorporations and organic sound design which is evident in and throughout the duration of the mix. 🌳🍄

Based in London and through his party Spike Melt, run alongside Seb Trillo, he has showcased his sound at notable venues through the city such as Lion and Lamb, Little Portland Street and more. Be sure to pay them a visit if you ever get the chance 🎶😎

Thanks again to Jacob for the mix, we hope you enjoy! 〽️

MMS #24: Jacob Tr!p - The Elevated Earth Mix

We’re thrilled to present an exclusive, 100% Unreleased Mix from East London-based producer and crate digger, Duncan Thomas. A bit of a production guru, Duncan has built a solid reputation for his style and deep musical knowledge.

 With a wealth of releases on respected labels such as Hoove, Silky Beats, Animal Crossing, Howl and Space Tours, Duncan brings a fresh collection of unreleased gems to this mix—many of which are being heard outside of a live show environment for the very first time.

A former music production tutor at London Sound Academy, Duncan now runs his own creative hub, Duncan Thomas Studio, where he continues to mentor up-and-coming artists and refine his craft.

This mix is a signature showcase of Duncan’s sound: a fusion of funk-driven grooves, emotive harmonies, and immersive atmospheres that transport listeners on a true sonic journey.

Keep an ear out for upcoming releases with Low Money Music Love, Growing Pleasures, and more, this one’s not to be missed!

AMP Mix Series 005: CC:DISCO!

We're back from Fusion Festival and it was all (more!) we imagined.
Sorry for sounding overly-affectionate here but it's very real. A couple of days of mini-utopia, shared with good people.
It was a sweaty pleasure to soundtrack the 37° heat on Sunday evening. Big thanks to dancers, stage divers & Seebühne crew for making it happen!
Bubbly refreshment drinks got spilled all over us + the equipment but here we are - the music made it out alive and the memories are preserved.

Mix info & Interview

EG.757 Hernan Cattaneo (ADE Special)

We’ve all woken up with a musty head. And as a Leeds/London-based label - we’re used to it.

As artists, our goal is to provide the sounds to either kick start the party, or keep it going.

As a wiseman once said outside our beloved Mint Club - “You’re only ever two beers away from feeling alright again”.

It’s a musty head. Embrace it.
