Horse Meat Disco - 02 October 2022

Last mix of the year is the most theoretically* expensive mix that I can make from my vinyl collection, according to Discogs prices determined on 24/11/2022: 30 tracks of the most luxurious/overpriced jungle imaginable, just in time for the festive season. Photek, Tango, Koda, Chaos & Julia Set, Trace, more Photek, Skanna, Bukem, Crystl... the gang's all here. 

*record and sleeve condition notwithstanding. A few of them came to me second hand, feature heavy cue-burn/stickering, plus years of toddler/cat abuse has wrecked many of the sleeves ... besides, I'd never try to sell them, they mean way too much to me :) 

Big shout to DJ Mafs @mafsone for casually quoting the value of one of his outstanding recent mixes and planting the idea... I take 'cogs prices with a punch of salt, frankly it's a ludicrous scene that I want no part of, but the concept of using value to dictate the selection seemed like fun. Having catalogued my collection a few years ago, after skimming a few pages of the priciest cuts I decided this could be the makings of quite a decent mix. I realise folks out there like Law, Dokta Venom, X Nation, djExtreme and so on could probably knock out a mix of equal value with a dozen tunes, but it is what it is. Might have to do a sub-155bpm follow-up sometime, a techno version (if you think jungle prices are crazy check out Warp's Artificial Intelligence 1 LP), or possibly The Cheap Mix ... could be interesting ... but I'm kicking all of that into the long grass for now. 2023's a new year.

for bass sake

Solid Steel in association with Serato (24th July) Our first guest in Hour 1 is Oli Parris, aka Mighty Atom who has achieved much success over the years with DMC, but this mix doesn't feature the usual turntablist ingredients. It's a high octane start deftly mixing up Foreign Beggars, Alix Perez, Machinedrum, Slugabed, Fracture, Special Request and classics by Roni Size and LTJ Bukem, both given a Footwork lick. Then it switches into a more stretched out affair with only the choicest cuts from the likes of Joy Orbison, Four Tet, Burial, Lone and Floating Points to produce a well crafted mix.

DJ Krush - Live at Backyard Festival (25-07-2008)

Solid Steel (2nd June) It's a special Stones Throw takeover this week, with label founder Peanut Butter Wolf heading up the show exactly 20 years after he first appeared on Solid Steel in 1997 (which you can also hear at http://solidsteel.net/broadcasts/1069), followed by jazz drummer and producer extraordinaire Karriem Riggins. 

Back in the summer of 1997, Peanut Butter Wolf paid a visit to the Ninja Tune studio in Clink Street, South London to record a mix. His label Stones Throw had started the year before and a handful of those early tracks featured in his mix. Two decades later Stones Throw is still going strong, having seen releases over the years from the likes of Madlib and his alter ego Quasimoto, MF Doom, J Dilla, Cut Chemist, J Rocc, The Stepkids, Dam Funk, Jonwayne and a whole host of quality reissues. His new mix contains some unreleased Stones Throw tracks alongside some incredibly rare gems and he told us; 
"I tried to include a combo of my old records, some yet-to-be released Stones Throw stuff and some unreleased demos from artists w/o a label. Hope you enjoy every second of every song."
