First uploads of 2023, so let’s make them good ones, right?

As pioneers of the UK breakbeat/jungle scene, I doubt Smiley & PJ need any introduction. This two-part mix compiles many of my favourites from their extensive back catalogue, including the seminal LP ‘Dance Before the Police Come’ in its entirety.

Part 1 focuses slightly more on their rap roots. Part 2 leans towards the breakbeat sound that saw the rave scene adopting them back in the early 90s.

Part 2 Tracklist:

Shut Up & Dance - Derek Went Mad
> Shut Up & Dance - The Art Of Moving Butts (Remix)
Shut Up & Dance - Genesis
Rum & Black - ESQ
Adé - Free The Soul (Club Version)
Shut Up & Dance - Lamborghini (Remix)
Rebel MC feat. Tenor Fly - Comin' On Strong (Shut Up & Dance Ragga Mx)
The Ragga Twins - 18" Speaker
The Ragga Twins feat. Junior Reid - Shine Eye
Shut Up & Dance - The Movie Soundtrack
Rum & Black - Slaves
Nicolette - Single Minded People
Nicolette - Udi Egwu
Rum & Black - Zombies At Dawn
> The Ragga Twins - Hooligan 69 (Remix)
The Ragga Twins - Hooligan 69
Rum & Black - I'm Not In Love
Shut Up & Dance feat. Peter Bouncer - Raving I'm Raving
Shut Up & Dance - Death Is Not The End
> Shut Up & Dance - A Change Soon Come (Instrumental)
Shut Up & Dance - A Change Soon Come
> Shut Up & Dance - Save It 'Til The Mourning After
Shut Up & Dance - Save It 'Til The Mourning After (Original 7" Edit)

Shut Up & Dance Mixtape (Part 2)

Shut Up & Dance Retrospective Mixtape (Part 2)

Second compilation mix of this Friday is Emotif's legendary compilation from earlyish '96, giving a definitive snapshot of techstep: futuristic, brutal, uncompromising. An important precursor to the likes of Torque - most of the tracks here are from Nico, Trace & Ed Rush, with Doc Scott, Cronic Crew (Krust), The Limit (Grooverider) & Raw Deal/Elementz of Noise along for the ride. Whether or not you know this LP I strongly recommend you stop whatever you're doing and get stuck in. EZ.

The Limit - Get Stoned
Skyscraper - The Difference
Rollers Instinct - Haze
Ed Rush - Check Me Out
Doc Scott - Machines
Cronic Crew - Black Marbles
Rollers Instinct - The Mutant
Raw Deal - Headless Horseman (Elementz Of Noize Steppin' On Headz Mix)
Hydro - The Zone
Skyscraper - Mach II
Skyscraper - Liberty One
Hydro - Tha' Bomb Shit

Selectabwoy: Tech Steppin Mix 

Selectabwoy's Tech Steppin Mix

For the fifth installment in the There & Back series, I've put together this multi-genre mix that involves lots of crate-digging to join the dots between electro, breaks, UK garage, jungle techno, and bass music. I'm really proud of this mix and hope you enjoy it as well - how often do you find artists as disparate as @jensen-interceptor @nitefleit @yorobi @rusko @burakasomsistema and more all on one mix?

* Message me if you have any copyright issues *

Home of my own mixes - predominantly jungle/hardcore with the odd bit of D&B, plus eclectic sample-digging, breaks and hip-hop, techno & electronica. 

Pre-2001, all mixes vinyl; Post-2016, all mixes digital (DJay 2); Post-2018, Ableton Live. Why? Why not?
I've got an old skool DJ's mentality, early influences ranging from Sublove, Ratty, Randall & Hype to Coldcut, DJ Juice, MK & Primo.  In the early 00s I turned my back on D&B, retired my turntables in favour of family/work commitments, and got into funk, soul, reggae and so on... a lot of this driven by curiosity around the sample roots of hardcore and jungle.  Forward another decade and an early mid-life crisis saw me messing around with virtual decks on my phone, and later acquiring a vinyl ripper, with one vision in mind: making mixes.
Although I'm partial to the odd DJay or vinyl mix when I get the chance, the progression into Ableton Live was a simple means to an end.  My ideas stretch further than the limitations of my physical collection and real-time mixing, and by sequencing I can pick, choose, chip away and structure mixes at my leisure. Which I do... a lot :)

Wait, there's more ... an absolute stack of classic golden era/old skool hip-hop/turntablism, jungle and d&b, hardcore, techno and house mixes retrieved from my dusty tape & CD archives.  This includes (by my reckoning) the most exhaustive collections of classic Full Cycle and Sublove Galaxy Radio shows, live Ruffneck Ting jungle tapes, loads of studio & compilation mixes, all manner of rave tapes, and so on. 

Have fun, spread the love :)
