Solid Steel Radio Show 3/1/2014 Part 1 + 2 - Mr Scruff + Illum Sphere

Nightmares On Wax On Giles Peterson's Worldwide Show 2002

Solid Steel (23rd May) In Hour 1 we're delighted to welcome Leon Vynehall to the show. Following his recent release on Martyn's 3024 label, he delivers an exclusive mixtape of his own unreleased edits just for Solid Steel. He told us;
"I had a bit of time off after I finished Music For The Uninvited, so I pulled out a bunch of records and made some early 90s hip-hop and decided to make a mixtape. I've been fortunate enough to have some friends sing and mc on it too."
Those friends include Ava Trilling, Speelburg, Kasflow and Rosalind for a sublime selection of beats, including his 'vynedit' of the classic Broad Factor by Quasimoto.

Solid Steel Radio Show 23/5/2014 Part 1 + 2 - Leon Vynehall presents "Lazy Tapes"

In hour 2 we welcome one of Detroit's finest, Scott Grooves to Solid Steel. He was part of Kevin Saunderson's Inner City project, released his debut album for Soma and collaborated with many legendary figures, and here he delivers his latest concept 'Overdubs' featuring live percussion, Keyboards & mixed together by Scott along with Ian Finklestien (keyboards & engineer). This is what he had to say;
 "The name is fitting because it simply explains the function with just 2 words Over..Dub. Also I would like to add a few more elements to the Overdubapproach in addition to my djing and venture out later this year to a ear near U. I would like to further acknowledge the original composers for providing some true inspiration & musical direction"

Solid Steel (23rd January)DJ Food returns to the Magpie Music theme he started last year with a second mix collecting a host of his favourite tracks from 2014 in an extended mix. Heavy beats, fuzz bass, rockist guitars and analogue synths are the rich pickings that the Magpie furnishes its nest with as well as a healthy dose of underground Hip Hop. Food favourites Jane Weaver, Temples and Ghost of a Sabre Tooth Tiger get several selections as well as Gas Giant (friend of Solid Steel, Bristol's Awkward under an alias). There's even a psychedelic Four Seasons track in there...

Solid Steel (23rd January) Our guest in Hour 1 is Legowelt, a man of many guises,  but it's his most well known alias that delivers an exclusive mix for Solid Steel. He said this about his mix;
"A lot of unreleased stuff all over the place, mixed on the fly in a crude energetic manner on my old 80s Inkel mixer with built in analog delay recorded on a reel tape deck on slow speed. The music is a bit melancholic, a bit romantic, for grim overcast days of snow and rain with some sun rays coming in occasionally…. a prelude to the spring. Slowly mixing towards a happier vibe. No shallow dumb inbred shit for "Blokes" this is for mad dealers and freaks!"

In Hour 2 this week we kick off a new regular feature for Solid Steel - Record Store Residency. Launching off the back of our successful RSD 2014 special, each month we’ll be asking some of the best record shops from around the world to contribute a 60 minute mix, showcasing the music they love. First up it’s Drift Record Shop from Devon in the UK, who deliver us a mix and told us "The shop curation is pretty scatty, so to avoid too much of a discordant listen we focused primarily on drum machines, synths, pianos and organs." Music on offer from Oneohtrix Point Never, Romare, Martyn, Radiohead, Four Tet and The Gaslamp Killer for your Friday afternoon listening pleasure.

Solid Steel (30th January) With the brand new Beat Spacek album Modern Streets dropping this week, what better time to highlight the depth and quality of Steve Spacek's back catalogue and history of innovating in electronic music. The original Spacek trio music dates from 2001 and still sounds fresh and futuristic today, and his collaborations with the likes of Mark Pritchard and J Dilla, alongside his myriad solo productions under various monikers have been consistently and singularly brilliant. Kutmah (Sketchbook / IZWID) is one of our favourite selectors and DJs. His insatiable appetite for new music and his knowledge and passion for heritage sounds, teamed with the fact that he's a huge fan of Steve's music over the years made him the perfect candidate to do this mix. So here it is… Beat Spacek x Kutmah: Classics, collabs & unreleased heat from Steve Spacek's epic catalogue selected & mixed by Kutmah.

Solid Steel (20th March) Having released debut album Sleep back in 2013 on Brighton based ‘Wolf Music’ Medlar steps up to the Solid Steel plate with a mix of 100% unreleased & exclusive tracks. He tells us this mix is constructed from 'Some unused tracks and distractions from the last 5 years, excerpts of interviews with some of the artists who've inspired me, and field recordings from some places I've travelled since music became my job.’ The result is an hour (and then some) of sublime, soulful funk and house grooves. Look out for new forthcoming releases on the aforementioned Wolf, as well as a collaborative release on 'Delusions Of Grandeur’, and remixes for Andreya Triana and  the Mr Bongo label.

Having written a piece on Precious Hall which you can read above(see the blog button), I thought you might enjoy the first part of my set there on Oct 5. 

I was playing alongside Toshio Matsuura who as I walked in the club was playing some electronic bits that sounded so heavy, I threw a few in myself… Hope you enjoy.

Max Graef & Glenn Astro - Ninja Tune 25th Anniversary Mix

Solid Steel in association with Serato (20th May) In Hour 1 we're delighted to welcome back Lone to Solid Steel for his 3rd time on the show. He first appeared in 2007 as part of Kids In Tracksuits and then again as Lone in 2009, and you can hear both mixes at SolidSteel.net . Lone's albums and live sets have touched a lot of musical ground. He's demonstrated his long-standing love of 90s hip hop, passing penchant for the bright lights and sounds of hardcore alongside his career defining old school house releases. All steeped in nostalgia whilst bringing a dance floor ready sound from the in-between places of your consciousness, making you feel warm and fuzzy without quite knowing why. His latest mix for Solid Steel perfectly showcases what his club sets are sounding like and he had this to say about his mix;
"I wanted to put together a club friendly mix for Solid Steel, something containing a bunch of the sort of tunes I'm playing out at the moment. Having said that, I didn't want to go completely one way like that, so I tried to put something together that could work just as easily as a home listening mix - it was fun trying to bridge that gap. I also saw this as a good excuse to showcase a bunch of forthcoming material from our MagicWire label, so there's quite a few exclusives here... even some stuff I'm working on under a different name...."
His new album 'Levitate' is out on May 27th on R & S and and you can pre order here http://www.lonemusic.co.uk
