#HouseMusicAllLifeLong

Electronic musician, remixer, bass and percussion player, sometimes writing or taking photos… though I try not to do it all at the same time. Maybe one day.

My music has been featured on BBC Radio 1’s Bobby Friction and Nihal, BBC Asian Network’s Adil Ray, Galaxy Network UK, Generasian Radio, Friday Night Sessions, Samurai FM,  Six Degrees Traveler, Soul Patrol, and others. 

Also done remixes of artists like Karsh Kale, Ryukyu Underground, Kidgusto, Sharaab, Alpha & Omega, Dierdre, AR Rahman, Jazzanova, People Under the Stairs, Midival Punditz, Shankar-Ehsaan-Loy, Black Eyed Peas, Temple of Sound, Steve Spacek, and more…

With roots in hip hop, live percussion, downtempo, house, funk and rare grooves, FunkDC is a collective of Washington DC Deejays that came together to celebrate good music and good vibes.

The dance orientated sound of British musician, producer and DJ Will “Quantic” Holland has enchanted fans and tastemakers across the world for nearly two decades.

Music on Soul Clap / Razor-N-Tape / Defected / Young Robots / Diggin Deeper France / Giant Cuts / Philly Int'l and more....

Michael has been on the forefront of many important movements in dance music over the last ten years. With his signature funk-influenced style, he has left his mark across the musical spectrum, sometimes under pseudonyms such as RCMP and Michael The Lion.

He was a part of the multi-genre style of DJing that catapulted his adopted Philadelphia to the pinnacle of the DJ world in the early 2000s. His years of seasoning as a DJ have seen him play all styles imaginable all across the US and Europe.

As a part of the duo RCMP, his work foreshadowed the emergence of Nu-Disco before the genre even had a name. As alter-ego Michael The Lion he is pushing the boundaries of funk in modern dance music.

He is an internationally renowned disco edit-maker, appearing on alongside the likes of Todd Terje and Tom Moulton. He has officially remixed global stars as diverse as Wiz Khalifa, Todd Edwards and Gregor Salto.

He is also is one of the OGs of “Moombahton” – the polyglot global EDM movement that saw DJ Apt One find fame on the BBC, NPR and elsewhere along with pioneers Dave Nada, DJ Sabo, Dillon Francis and more.

He is also a founder and executive of Young Robots Records, and has put out debut records by Solidisco, Nicos Gun, Fashen and more.

DJ Apt One has shared stages with some of the best talents of this generation, including The Rub, Diplo, Tittsworth, Juan Maclean, Treasure Fingers, Nick Catchdubs, Gigamesh, Big Freedia, Blaqstarr, DJ Sega, Sammy Bananas, Spank Rock, Dave Nada, Wale, Dillon Francis, Peanut Butter Wolf, De La Soul, !!!, RJD2, Bonde do Role, DJ Neil Armstrong, The Hood Internet, Anna Lunoe, The Budos Band, The Flaming Lips, Flosstradamus and more..

Hey, Gareth here, I'm a graphic designer who start designing for clubs, parties, and labels in the late 90s. Back then, mix CDs were the holy grail of both design and music. I loved them.

But I wasn't the only one, mix cds were the soundtracks of our nights, our days, our afterparties and lives, for everyone. Yet in today's internet age, the art form has been lost (or just changed) to 2-3 hour online mixes and streaming videos, which just don't create the same magic your CD collection did. Just 60 minutes of music and incredible artwork.

The Classic Mix CD Series celebrates these discs, their soundtrack, their box art and your memories. We hope you enjoy it.

Also, we try to help you find and buy them again by sharing Discogs links on all featured CDs and or direct links to labels where possible.

* We fully support labels and artists. If any disc creates a copyrighting issue let me know and it will be immediately removed.

About Gareth:
Digital creative type, gamer, music lover and occasional DJ. Currently living between Dubai & Seoul after setting sail from Sunderland in 2010. As a young designer, club and music culture was the driving force for his work, producing artwork for local club nights and record labels in the North East of England. In particular, DJ mix cds and their packaging were always his 'holy grail of design', especially those from Renaissance, Global Underground and Good Looking Records. It's a pleasure to share these discs back with people and they still influence our tastes to this day.
