ESSENTIAL MIX - JAN 2009
Uploaded on 17.01.10 and exclusive to SoundCloud. Available for the first time without voiceovers and jingles,12 months on from original Radio 1broadcast on 17.01.09.


EMAILSHOT A FEW DAYS AHEAD OF MIX BEING AIRED:
2009 kicks in for me this weekend with my first gig of the year for Udio (1st birthday) at The Gramaphone Club in Shoreditch, London on Friday night, which coincides with the airing of my only just completed in the nick of time Essential Mix on Radio 1, made up of 43 tracks in just under 2 hours.

Given that the 5th anniversary of my DJ comeback has only just passed, I decided to take the opportunity to make the mix totally representative of this period, with all the selections being amongst the biggest tracks I’ve played since I made my second debut at Music Is Better in Manchester.

Five years represents a significant package of time, a fixed point from where I can reflect on what’s been a continually snowballing sequence of events, set in motion when Danny Webb asked me to appear in Manchester on that December night back in 2003.

There were less than 100 people there that night, but they were the right people, and I was taken aback by the response to my return, both on the night itself and during subsequent days, when people who were there began to post on the forums. I’d never expected all the feedback be so totally positive!

I’d figured that I’d play that night, using the combination of laptop and reel-to-reel for the first time, then go away and think about what worked and what didn’t before I made my next move. I would never have believed that things could come together so immediately, it was as if I’d hit a completely unexpected hole in one, especially when two of the people who were there, Ralph Lawson, DJ from Back To Basics in Leeds, and one of my fellow DJ’s that night, Richard Hardcastle (Solid State) from Society in Sheffield, both asked me to play at their nights no sooner had I finished my spot.

One thing kept leading to another and, in Sheffield, I was approached by Tony Daly to play at the now legendary Tyneside Cinema party in Newcastle, a bespoke event where he took on the substantial risk of presenting me in a city I’d never DJ’d in previously (unless you count the 1983 TV appearance on The Tube, which was filmed in the Tyne Tees studio). Then, of course, there was London, where Steve Kotey and Bill Brewster booked me for their parties, bringing me to the capital within the first few months of my return for Ouch and Low Life.

The bookings kept coming, and I found myself driving up and down the country on an increasingly regular basis. Later in 2004 I was approached by Sav Remzi, from Tirk / Nuphonic, with the idea of putting together an edits album, which would be issued the following year as ‘Credit To The Edit’. This would help bring my name to the attention of people outside the UK. There was soon a need to step things up further, now that I was receiving enquiries from Europe, and so began a fruitful relationship with my agent, Matt Johnson (Matty J), who’s done a wonderful job of representing me during recent years.

The last few months have been, to say the least, manic for me, with 25 flights, including 6 long haul, taking me to gigs in the US, Japan, Australia, Brazil and Europe. From a personal perspective I still find it remarkable the way everything has developed, pretty much organically, since I made the decision that I was going to be a DJ once again – had I concocted some sort of comeback masterplan, it could never have worked out anything like as well as it has. It’s definitely been a case of ‘from small acorns’.

It still never ceases to amaze me that people from another continent are interested in my DJ past. Back in the early 80’s, before I went into retirement for 20 years, the furthest I travelled (with the exception of the appearances I made in the South of England as part of The Hacienda Review in late ’83) was to places like Birmingham and Nottingham, when I played at All-Dayers, so to find myself in clubs on the other side of the world is pretty nuts!

Anyhow, I’d like to wish everyone all the best for 09. Big thanks to all the promoters who booked me and everyone who danced to the tunes I played during ’08 in Adelaide, Barcelona, Belfast, Berlin, Birmingham, Blackburn, Brighton, Bristol, Dublin, Dundee, Edinburgh, Fukuoka, Glasgow, Hamburg, Leeds, Lisbon, Liverpool, London, Los Angeles, Manchester, Melbourne, Milan, New York, Newcastle, Nottingham, Paris, Porto Alegre, San Francisco, Sao Paulo, Sheffield, Sydney, Tokyo and Warsaw. Also the festivals and special events that I appeared at - Bestival (Isle Of Wight), Big Chill (England), Camp Bestival (England), Garden Festival (Croatia), Ibiza, Lovebox (England), Notting Hill Carnival (England), Rockness Festival (Scotland), Sonar (Spain) and the Southport Weekender (England).

Hope to see you soon.

Greg


FORUM POST DURING FOLLOWING DAYS:                                                        
Thanks for all the positive words. The feedback has been pretty phenomenal, far exceeding what I’d hoped for, especially on the BBC page, where I’d expected that some people would criticize the amount of older music included - the Radio 1 audience is used to current stuff ('in new music we trust'), so I’d anticipated a more mixed reaction. What’s particularly pleasing is that they were all made without the people seeing what each other wrote (they all came online at once, having been checked first by whoever moderates the BBC pages, I presume for swearing etc following the Ross / Brand controversy).

You always hope something you've done will be well received, but the response to this has blown me away.

Greg


ANSWER TO POST RE MIXING PROCESS:                                                      
It was quite a laborious process. Before I could start the actual mixing part I had to edit every track to a coherent length of around two and a half minutes average, inclusive of in and out points. I had a pool of about 90 tracks that fitted the criteria I'd set (a representative selection of the biggest tunes I've been playing during the past 5 years). It wasn't as straightforward as just editing the 43 tracks I ended up featuring - in order to have the necessary options once I started to piece the mix together I needed to have all the tracks at my disposal, just as I would have if I was out deejaying in a club, so the only thing to do was edit all 90 to the required length, even though I knew that only half would make the cut .

Once that was finally done they were all taken across into my laptop, enabling me to vari-speed them via PCDJ whilst I recorded across to my home computer into Cool Edit Pro, where I put the mix together track by track, before adding overdubs (fx, samples, textures) in a similar way to what I do live using the Revox (reel to reel).

I could quite easily have spent another day, tweaking bits here and there and adding more overdubs (the older I get the more finicky I become), but I had a deadline to work to, so, as it moved ever nearer, it became a race against time, with me doing as much as I could before the cut off point arrived.

ESSENTIAL MIX (by greg wilson for bbc radio 1 2009)

Such a pleasure to host ANNX on this month’s show. This guest mix has has been a long time coming, after playing for her at WHOMP back in June 2022 and having her on our very first tentacular party line-up here in Paris. 

ANNX is a wonderful & vibrant DJ but also a lovely human being. She is the mother of WHOMP - a non-profit charity party in London that she co-runs with another absolute boss Lora Mipsum. 

She also runs a new party series with a more psychedelic twist with Amphybian, called MAGICK. If you’re ever in London make sure to check out both as they rock, both in terms of vibes, crowd and line-ups.  

Anna sent over a few words words with her mix : « Whilst prepping for the show I wanted to hone in on the slower more mysterious and deeper side of my music taste. Expect an hour of minimal and deep techno with some organic percussions, bubbles and twangs telling a story with increasing energy and intrigue. Perfect listening for the winter months. 

Hope you enjoy it as much as I did! Merci dear Anna for the groovy and deep ride

Tentacular - Hewan Aman invite Annx (31.01.23)

We have a serious treat for you, the perfect mix for a Sunday afternoon. The mix has been crafted by the head of the incredible AGT Records, Professor Roth. 

The mix is a live recording from his project with Community Sauna Baths, Sonic Sauna. The mix has been split into two. The first half is a hazy mix of ambient and folk; we will be posting the next half will be posted next week. 

As always, sit back and relax!

Take a Trip with Professor Roth Part 1

Here is the recording of my set at UNFOLD LIV on 04.06.23 

It was a really special evening that Sunday - so much energy and support from the crowd - one to remember!

OFF limits co-founder, @sweet_as_a_b explores the feeling you get when you're indoors during a thunderstorm with an hour of moody chug, atmospheric breaks and broken techno.

Chrysalism is the feeling of amniotic tranquility of being inside during a rainstorm, listening to waves of rain pattering against the roof like an argument upstairs, whose muffled words are unintelligible but whose crackling release of built-up tension you understand perfectly. In this mix i wanted to channel the storm itself, from the first gentle droplets to the chaos and freneticism at its peak.

This is a love story from a festival rather than a club, but at Houghton last year I was helped by a girl whilst looking for a friend in the crowd. I ended up sitting down with her and got chatting for ages whilst listening to Vladimir Ivkovic. We exchanged numbers, went on a friend date a few weeks later, and have been hanging out regularly since.

@garcon @deep-mind-music mix. I listen to a lot of deep, broken, often pretty intense and hectic dance music. This mix is the antidote, it takes me into a calm and meditative place and gosh some of the tracks are beautiful.

I grew up in a house where there was always music and dancing. Both of my parents influenced my music taste infinitely - both of them have a really unique music taste: ambient, spiritual, soulful and poetic in spades. I feel like there’s always more to hear and learn because of this, and I also am reminded to always be open to new sounds.

UK born, Rotterdam based @sebcantmix brings us an extended 2hr vinyl mix for our 14th instalment. The @hidden_rooms & 40Hz co-founder gives us a very special ode to the warm-up, which in turn is his favourite set to play.

𝓽𝓮𝓵𝓵 𝓾𝓼 𝓪𝓫𝓸𝓾𝓽 𝓽𝓱𝓮 𝓬𝓸𝓷𝓬𝓮𝓹𝓽 𝓸𝓯 𝓽𝓱𝓲𝓼 𝓶𝓲𝔁
I’ve always enjoyed doing warm-ups. In some hypothetical dream scenario where I could play for any party at any club & choose my slot, I’d choose to do the warm-up.

I find watching a room fill up & laying the foundations for an entire night &/or day of partying is often the most satisfying experience you can have as a DJ.

Sometimes I think there can be a bit of a narrative that you have to ‘play it safe’ during the early hours of an event, but I actually often think the opposite. I think as long as you get the mood right, you’re free to play some of the most interesting music.

𝓪 𝓵𝓸𝓬𝓪𝓵 𝓹𝓪𝓻𝓽𝔂 𝔂𝓸𝓾’𝓭 𝓵𝓲𝓴𝓮 𝓽𝓸 𝓫𝓲𝓰 𝓾𝓹
I'm gonna go for @achterban - They’re not tied to a particular sound but instead always combine DJs from all different genres throughout their programming. Their event production is always great, they bring a lot of visual art & lighting installations to the club to good effect.

𝓪 𝓵𝓸𝓬𝓪𝓵 𝓓𝓙 𝔂𝓸𝓾’𝓭 𝓵𝓲𝓴𝓮 𝓽𝓸 𝓫𝓲𝓰 𝓾𝓹
Oh there are loads, how can I just pick one? @yopoono is always impressive. Every time I listen to him I always think he’s really good at getting his tracks in the right order. Sounds simple I guess but it's probably the most important thing to get right haha.

Also big up to @krismika - super sick selections, always love listening to her sets!

Earlier this year I went to Golden Pudel for the first time.

What a club. It’s really got everything you want imo. Small room, low lighting, cracking system & a crowd full of people really into their tunes & up for having a good time. 10/10, would Pudel again.

𝔀𝓱𝓪𝓽 𝓭𝓸 𝔂𝓸𝓾 𝓵𝓸𝓿𝓮 𝓶𝓸𝓼𝓽 𝓪𝓫𝓸𝓾𝓽 𝓽𝓱𝓮 𝓬𝓲𝓽𝔂 𝔂𝓸𝓾 𝓵𝓲𝓿𝓮 𝓲𝓷
It doesn’t feel competitive. There are a lot of creative people doing a lot of cool things but, in my experience at least, it’s never felt like they’re fighting for their own space. People are open to collabs & support each other’s endeavours.

𝓽𝓱𝓮 𝓫𝓮𝓼𝓽 𝓓𝓙 𝓼𝓮𝓽 𝔂𝓸𝓾’𝓿𝓮 𝔀𝓲𝓽𝓷𝓮𝓼𝓼𝓮𝓭
Far too many to choose from but the first time I saw DJ Sprinkles will always stand out. She has this whole different way of thinking about what a DJ set can be. I’ve never heard anyone else do it like her.

𝓽𝓱𝓮 𝓵𝓪𝓼𝓽 𝓶𝓲𝔁 𝔂𝓸𝓾 𝓵𝓲𝓼𝓽𝓮𝓷𝓮𝓭 𝓽𝓸?
The last one that really left its mark was Floid on @woodyninetytwo Neon Cleptu show on @lyl_radio. Crazy tunes, expertly blended. Out to Marco for putting it on at work!

Again too many to choose tbh.

I lived in Helsinki for a year & went to @clubkaiku near enough every weekend whilst I was there. Something about that place & the way it’s run, the way the booth is built, the soundsystem & the crowd of regulars that attend, it always seemed to bring the best out of the DJs that played there.

The whole scene in Helsinki is really top notch. It’ll always have a special place in my heart.

Also, memories of going to the @hessleaudio residency at @fabric when I was 18/19. Truly transformative experiences.

Smirnoff Promo Mix

For this edition of the Fast Forward series, we present to you Blue Hour @bluehour909 with a mix focusing on early-rave! - Enjoy!

From starting out promoting club nights in the UK, Luke Standing has been devoted to underground electronic music.
His first records under the names Furesshu and Esoteric experimented with swung and atmospheric techno before he resettled in Germany and launched his resolutely independent project Blue Hour in late 2013. Since then, Standing has released pivotal records with a distinctive sound driven by the spirit and energy of the '90s, and in turn, been welcomed into some of the most respected venues across the globe. Fuelled by his obsession with the early days of dance music, when genres like trance, jungle, and IDM overlapped, his DJ sets explore a narrative of timeless music, blurring the lines between geography and scene, space and time. Beyond the platform originally started for his own productions, Blue Hour has since begun extending his reach towards other artists and releasing music from Dold
and Alpha Tracks as well as his collaborative project as Tracing Xircles. An acclaimed Remixed series has also seen artists like Steffi, Pangaea and Answer Code Request re-working his music. There is no doubt that Blue Hour has become part of the techno world, but Standing stands clearly apart within it.

BOUND Radio with VTSS @ The Lot Radio 11 - 21 - 2019

Next up in the Fast Forward Audio Series we have Damon Bradley!

Damon Bradley, a resident of central Maryland, USA, was born and raised in South Philadelphia.
His musical influences span a very broad spectrum from ambient to industrial techno, groovy and soulful house, and melodic progressive trance. Currently, he’s focused on exposing the boundaries of techno to as many people as possible, and he does this using the TechnoFist group and TechnoFist podcast he created in 2013 and 2015, respectively. He curates both new and classic techno on TechnoFist which now has over 2900 members, mostly from New York, Washington DC, and various European cities.

Damon has played in numerous places in Washington DC, Brooklyn, and Philadelphia including Jimmy Valentines, and Dr. Clocks Nowhere Bar for the Degenerate, Void Archive, and Phonic parties in DC, EXILE Brooklyn, Flash DC, Tilt, and Aphotic in Brooklyn. Damon’s toured the US beyond the East Coast as well, including Format x Sleepwalker Chicago, the Works in Detroit, and Synthetik in LA.
Internationally, Damon also headlined Copenhagen’s new rave series called Endurance, flanked by Hyperaktivist, Lunde and Ronde, and Ezy, and also played a few impromptu parties during Amsterdam Dance Event 2018 and Dekmantel 2017.
Damon has played at all ends of the running order, opening for the likes of Shifted, Ben Damage, Exos, and Phase, and closing for juggernauts such as Perc, Tommy Four Seven, Headless Horseman, Stranger, Milton Bradley, The Gods Planet, Jeff Mills, FJAAK, and Pure Immenance.

In 2016, Damon teamed up with Ron Jackson, Jacob Knibb, Associate and Juana to form SEQUENCE, an ambitious underground techno event series that aims to push the Washington DC techno scene as far as possible. SEQUENCE has been throwing parties since August 2016, and has featured strong local talent alongside heavyweights such as Headless Horseman, UVB, Discwoman, Milton Bradley, BMG, and Tommy Four Seven.

In March 2019, Damon started a new party series in the US called Katalyst, which bridges the gap between future techno with classic trance sounds of the early '90s. He’s already featured 11 artists in only 2 parties already and hopes to feature many more in the near future.

About the mix:
I had 3 objectives with this mix.
1) Blend opposites - past and present techno, hard and abrasive with gentle and melodic
2) Showcase intense tracks that seem to tell a story but also get folks moving fast
3) Dedication to my late mom who passed away in June - FSOL Papua New Guinea was one of her favorite songs I'd play for her over 20 years ago while I was a teenager just discovering the music, and Ibon No Sleep is the last song I played for her, a week before she died.

So the tracks include Oliver Lieb (as Superspy and L.S.G.), D. Carbone, DJ IBON, Funeral Future, Devilfish, I-E from ISMUS, Avalone, Luis Ruiz, Meiler Avenue, 999999999, and Hadone.

Ute Mix Series #21 | Ezy

The first edition of the Fast Forward Audio Series for this decade, we present to you a special collaborative effort between Viscerale and Adam Askov of Funeral Future, they named the mix "Life is not a Beach". It came about as the result of a close friendship that was formed a year ago.
The tracks featured in the mix were all fixtures at the local club Tuben back in the early ‘00s and have been superbly mixed by Viscerale. It’s a rare glimpse into a sound that preceded our own contributions to the Copenhagen techno.

"Wow! When I was asked to contribute to Fort Knox's Epic 'Funk The World' series, I was ecstatic!  Given a month time to work on it, the pressure was on! Taking Fans 'around the world' through a musical journey is one of my favourite ways to flaunt obscure sounds. Within these 45 minutes, you'll hear Funk Drums, Latin Melodies & Rhythms, Lebanese Funk, Afrobeat, Brazilian, Latin Jazz, African Funk, Cumbia,  and of course, since it's 'Fort Knox';  BREAKBEATS!  Much of this is recorded from the original vinyl, and you'll hear a grip of exclusive edits & blends to this mix! Enjoy!"
