Split

The Tartan Records boss and equally boss DJ Wallace signs off on his recent stint down under with a mix packed with deep sea dubs and bumping 00s techy rollers. Based in England, and having previously run a string of club nights in Edinburgh, Wallace is a proud tartan enthusiast with a full tank of punchy dubwise grooves in his sporran, with plenty of nods to his UK roots here over a glorious hour and a bit full of chunky d-floor burners. Let's have it!

Q. What sounds or feelings did you draw upon when gathering inspiration for this mix, and what listening environments could you imagine it being best enjoyed in?

A. It’s been a pretty bruising winter back here in the UK but we’d just had our first smattering of sunshine when I came to putting this mix together. I think that shift—the changing seasons and the first signs of trees beginning to bloom in my hometown (as pictured)—definitely influenced the first part of the mix. The middle section leans more into the kind of stuff I’d play out, but I wanted to bring things to a softer landing toward the end. There’s certainly an outdoor feel to the selections so maybe a listening environment to match but equally I love music’s ability to transport us from our current states so bang it on indoors and see what happens.

Q. Are there any songs in the mix that you were especially excited to share, and what is it about these tracks that resonate with you so much?

A. There’s a Steve O'Sullivan Dub early on which I recently found & it’s just a gloriously mixed and executed piece of dub techno. Towards the end another recent find by Argentinian producer Federico Molinari which to my ears sounds like a lost 80’s gem but was produced just last year. It's rare to hear a modern producer capture that classic vibe so authentically, without tipping into pastiche.

Q. You were just out here in Australia over the past weekend and from all reports the shows were on point! What kind of directions did you take people in during those sets, and how might the energy of your club sets differ from your mixes? 

A. Yes, so glad to have finally made it out here. Was a real joy to meet some lovely people in your scene and to get the chance to do my thing. Always revel in the challenge of playing in a new country as you’ve got to be on your toes to adapt but stay true to what you’re all about. I truly felt the warm Aussie welcome, so let’s call this mix a little parting gift to tide things over until next time x

A producer and live performer who has been exploring dance music for more than a decade, @rroxymore's sound is immersive, covering techno, hip hop, house, synthwork, new age, and beyond. Since her first forays into production in her native France, she touched down in Berlin, where the world of music opened up for her even further, and her most recent release, 2025’s #JugglingDualities, was her most honest and far-reaching album to date. In this conversation, rRoxymore and I discuss the musician’s journey to finding her voice in her early days, and reaffirming that voice with her latest productions.

A true craftsman of deep, timeless house and techno, XDB delivers a mix that captures the essence of his sound: hypnotic, patient, and beautifully refined. Drawing from decades of collecting and playing records, he pieces together a journey that feels both classic and current, with subtle shifts and warm textures woven throughout.

“The invitation to contribute to the fabric podcast series and do my debut in the club, playing room one together with Craig Richards and Peach, added big time to an already fantastic year.

What I did for this mix, was going through the shelves to pick a bunch of solid records in combination with a selection of my newest purchases, included a few promos and some unreleased dubplates. Deep stuff as always, but also a quite diverse mix, 32 tracks in total stretched into a 2 hour journey for your listening pleasure. I hope you enjoy”

He makes his fabric debut on the 15th November.
