They say all good things must come to an end and Trash The Wax Vol. 9 has the honour of being our penultimate collection of dance floor heaters and beaters. Believe it when we say we're going out with an almighty kapow!

This ninth outing is packing fire with regular TTW providers such as Paper Street Soul kicking things off with a slab of post-punk electronica on 'Notes On You'. Picotropico has been drinking the same kool aid with the Talking Heads-esque 'Inmovil feat. Sima Itayim'.
 
If low-slung-chuggy-psych-acid-house is your bag then we've got you covered by Dan Wainwright, Coy Dog and James Rod who each crank up the ALFOS-o-meter to 11. House with disco tendencies gets fully represented here by Define, Gina D, Processman, J Kara, Dastardly Bounder and Flying Mojito Brothers who all guarantee a session kicking up dust on the dance floor.

Other Paper and TTW firm members The Secret Soul Society and Andy Buchan go for a housier hat throw into the ring on 'D For Damaga' and 'Road To Barca' whilst Jahn Solo drops an ultimate end of night feel good anthem on 'Dance For Me'.

Bill Brewster: "Some nice gear here"

Will Tramp!: "Lovely stuff!"

Phil Rose: "Great comp!"

Daco: " Lots of goodies involved and particularly diggin' Fabio Santanna and James Rod & Aleito."

Chocolate Rain...Charlie Bit My Finger….Gangnam Style...The Ice Bucket Challenge...Kim Kardashian melting the internet….Flash Atkins’ and Massey’s Party for Two.

Prepare to be blown away as two men sit down and play records back to back on a brisk weekday morning. Paper Recordings’ main players snuck in to West Yorkshire’s finest bar, Barbary’s and brought the heat as they weaved through ambient, afro, wonk, desert blues, disco. street soul house and disco.

It's a party on a plate without having to leave your home.

Mo-mixset Emma bar

When I first had this idea it was originally planned to celebrate the summer holidays, but life got in the way, so a few weeks later than planned...
I made an all vinyl mix entirely from music that was released while I was in Year 9 (1987/88). It was a time of great change, with UK hip hop pioneers like Derek B gracing the charts for the first time, while influential visionaries Coldcut got involved with house and kickstarted the careers of soul singers such as Yazz. On the alternative side, we also experienced the beginnings of what would become known as the Stourbridge scene, as it began to emerge from the squat party era. I believe it was a great time to be in Year 9.
Today's Year 9s face a weird paradox; while there is undoubtedly more incredible music released each week than ever before, across a vast range of genres, finding it would be incredibly difficult for them at first, having to cut through so much more manufactured, generic 'big business music'. Of course, that was present in the 80s too, with businessmen like Pete Waterman taking advantage of the popularity of TV shows like Neighbours and Home and Away, but the amount of money big businesses commit to drowning out anything remotely creative these days is phenomenal, and for todays youth, creates a wall of plastic pollution even bigger than the one contaminating the oceans.
I had a great time putting this together, despite its technical difficulties, such as 7" mixes fading quicker that Peter Mandelson's comeback, and pop records not keeping time with themselves for more than 16 beats, I hope you enjoy it xx

PREMIERE : LOR - Origin (Original Mix) [LOREC4D]

Rune Lindbaek flagged up a remix of Molde by Those Norwegians that had never had an official release, but can now be found on '25 Years of Paper' - Part 2.

The original was part of their Kaminzky Park album that wrote the blueprint for the Norwegian 'space disco' sound that was to follow. It had out-there production, off kilter beats, wry humour and heavy groove.

The remix caries on where they left with Arctic funk and Scandi wonk.

When Robodisco went to the wedding...

Well, its probably been over 10 years since I last recorded a mix! Can't quite believe that, but hey!  It was also my first time DJing at a wedding, and wearing a tie. I truly don't know where to go after this.

In celebration of my dear friends Sally and Dave and their fab wedding the other week... lots of love and congratulations.

As far as playlist history and memory serves, this is a pretty faithful recreation of the tunes as they unfolded on the night... they went down quite well at the time :)

Using both digital and analogue vinyl, a mix of old (lots) and new (some) post punk, new wave, deep house, disco, electro hop yada yada. 

Enjoy

Sall And Dave's Big Fat Robodisco Wedding Mix

I was recently re-introuced to a long lost old recording of me warming up for Hector at Basics @ The Peephouse back in 2009 (Cheers Jonny!), and I thought seen as it's their 29th birthday this weekend it would be a fitting time to upload it for a bit of a trip down memory lane 🙂 Originally released as a shorter mix for Back To Basics Podcast 001, this is the full recording and goes through the transition from empty club to completely rammed and going off in proper Basics fashion! I always loved being able to kick off really deep/indulgent, and pick the pace up gradually as the club got busier. I had some of my favourite ever gigs at The Peephouse, there was nowhere else quite like it! 

Hopefully this will be a nice blast from the past for people anyway and bring back some memories of that era.  Very special times indeed! ❤️

Paul Shaw began DJing in 1995, playing at numerous venues and holding residencies in the north west of England and his native Birmingham throughout the late 90's. Heavily influenced by the classic deep British house sound of Paper Recordings, Nuphonic and 20:20 Vision among others, he became known for fusing deep hypnotic grooves with percussive Chicago tracks, early acid house and traditional US garage. Now operating out of Birmingham UK, he produces under his own name for disco influenced house, with a recent release on Paper Disco, also producing more minimal tracks under the name 'Define' on Michigan label Intimate Venues Recordings.
