Sean Johnston Christmas ALFOS at Phonox Dec 23

Sean Johnston ALFOS Phonox Dec 23

What a dream team playing with @talkless & @bandolier at that last outting. Love the whole dynamic of genre juggling, BPM contrasts and just playing records for the moment, makes it really feel like you’re playing in the gaff which is the whole idea I’m going for.

Think I ruined the all vinyl streak after 3 hours with a Spirit In The Sky edit and a sax remix of Gimme Gimme but hats off to the troops for keeping it wax only !

If you’re expecting flawless mixing go listen else where but if you want a well curated blend of musical cultures, styles and all round great tunes then give it a listen 👂🏼

I still often get asked why I don’t put up more mixes that reflect my more usual dj style. I’m not sure really but maybe it is because I get to hear myself play like that all the time and it’s more interesting to me to put up other stuff? I also like that people who have just come across me and check out my Soundcloud for the first time might think they have stumbled on a reggae dj with the same name by mistake. To help stoke that confusion, here’s a third Bucky Skank mix. Bucky Skank is an annual night I do in Glasgow where I play all Jamaican music and Jamaican inspired music. This year was the 6th edition. I think I get slightly better at doing it each year and reckon by 2031 I might have nailed it. 

This Bucky Skank mix is made up of two sections recorded live on the night of this year’s party combined with a section recorded at home. Hopefully my cunning editing will make it hard to tell where the joins are. It is available to download as a 320 mp3. The music here ranges from 1971 right up to 2017.

I think this mix contains completely different tracks from the other Bucky Skank mixes, or at the very least with minimal crossover and is perhaps my favourite so far. It is LONG! 2 hours 30 minutes and perhaps delves a bit deeper in parts than the previous mixes, though I hope it is still fun to listen to. A lot of fun was had on the night and ultimately that is what the Bucky Skank nights are all about. Roll on next year’s.
