One Deck & Popular are two Midland’s exiles who released four singles on the Black Country Route label out of Wolverhampton in the early 2000’s. Their first single “Son of Stitt” appeared on Doc Martin’s Fabric 10 compilation CD in 2003 and the Umblu mix of “Innerspace” on Nick Luscombe’s Flowmotion 2 CD in 2005. 

Since 2009 they’d been a bit quiet due to having kids and very busy doing numerous other projects (including putting up shelves, gardening and looking for secondary schools). The fruits of their collaboration with Subway Sect’s Vic Godard on vocals are still to be released but “old Time Spirit” the instrumental version co-written with Vic is included here. To check out One Deck Pete’s blog, tap in “weeds up to me knees” into google for some music, gardening, and council-worker stories.

Ede’s story reads like an electronic music fairy tale, one that is beautifully inspiring and indicative of the transformative power of music. His journey is driven by the freedom and inclusion inherent in dance music. A transcendent moment on the dance floor at Panorama Bar led to a total shift in his life - taking a leap of faith to leave his successful career, and hometown, moving to Berlin to make music. Amazingly, his first release was signed to the label of his dreams - Innervisions - followed by a second release with Correspondent. A widely respected artist who has appeared on some of the industry’s most influential labels. Along the way he has developed his own personal sonic identity, which remains present in everything he does - emotive, heartrending, impeccably produced and made to fill the dance floor with positive energy. Driven by the purity of a life-changing dance floor experience, his unwavering dedication to making and playing music remains steadfast and forms the nucleus of a remarkably successful entrance into electronic music. Wherever he goes next it’s certain to be full of love, joy and optimism…

Hey, Gareth here, I'm a graphic designer who start designing for clubs, parties, and labels in the late 90s. Back then, mix CDs were the holy grail of both design and music. I loved them.

But I wasn't the only one, mix cds were the soundtracks of our nights, our days, our afterparties and lives, for everyone. Yet in today's internet age, the art form has been lost (or just changed) to 2-3 hour online mixes and streaming videos, which just don't create the same magic your CD collection did. Just 60 minutes of music and incredible artwork.

The Classic Mix CD Series celebrates these discs, their soundtrack, their box art and your memories. We hope you enjoy it.

Also, we try to help you find and buy them again by sharing Discogs links on all featured CDs and or direct links to labels where possible.

* We fully support labels and artists. If any disc creates a copyrighting issue let me know and it will be immediately removed.

About Gareth:
Digital creative type, gamer, music lover and occasional DJ. Currently living between Dubai & Seoul after setting sail from Sunderland in 2010. As a young designer, club and music culture was the driving force for his work, producing artwork for local club nights and record labels in the North East of England. In particular, DJ mix cds and their packaging were always his 'holy grail of design', especially those from Renaissance, Global Underground and Good Looking Records. It's a pleasure to share these discs back with people and they still influence our tastes to this day. 

For any CD recommendations, bookings, mixes or feedback you can catch me as @asapgareth on Instagram. Or you can check our my design work at www.acid.works
