The second instalment of the Reference Mark Mix Series. Past, present and future friends of the label are given the chance to reference the sounds that define them.

As a co-founder of the Sheffield-based Rave New World night Andrew Cook aka Soundboy Cookie immediately established himself in the underground garage scene. This success up north was swiftly followed by a move to London, a slew of swinging productions and recognition from some of the most prominent figures in the scene such as Perception, DJ Shy Dee and El-B. Here he shows why we refer to him as the 2-step garage guru – introducing us to the scenes thriving new school, including forthcoming and unreleased material as well as adding some breakbeat/techno flavour for good measure.

Now then.
Music/Sound/Art/Creation Enthusiast.
Find me deep in the underground searching for what i haven't already found.
Big up all the humble genius' i have crossed paths with already and the others i have yet the pleasure to meet.
Nothing new above the ground.

Here you can find collections of sounds arranged in a peculiar order, at varying speeds, and in different styles with the intention of provoking emotions and dopamine levels. 

Big shout out to all of my regular and new listeners! I'm glad that my music resonates in some way for other people besides myself.

PLEASE LISTEN TO SPOTLIGHT FIRST
