About the cd:
So everyone should know by now that I was a massive fan of Sanchez in the late 90's. And it's around 2001/2 that he supposedly started playing 'darker'. We all know how that turned out (sadly!). This is a free disc from MixMag which brilliant shows the slamming soul and energy he brings and a mix which has had quite a few requests on this page despite it being free. (Which is unusual for a giveaway disc!).

So on that note, thanks for such a belter Mixmag, you can pick it up on discogs for only 50p, now that is a bargain. So turn up it, and enjoy the mix.

Get Down Saturday Night (Bootleg Remix)

As a prelude to the upcoming Soul:ution Room Two takeover on Friday 16th May, label boss Marcus Intalex and one of Manchester’s most reliable renegade emcees, DRS, have bumped consciousness and put together this, their ‘Mid Mic Crisis’ mix. Regular sparring partners in clubs the world over, DRS’ trademark measured Mancuian flow rides perfectly atop on Intalex’s soulful selection with his baritone delivery sitting sweetly and filling out the dynamic range of the rolling selections which reportedly feature, in some form, material from DRS’ forthcoming second album, Mid Mic Crisis.

Basically it’s a glorious and specifically tailored 62 minute mixtape showcase of DRS’ potency as a host, an emcee and a vocalist. But it comes mixed by Intalex which more than hints at the level of quality it contains... two of Manchester's finest in sterling form.

MC DRS & Marcus Intalex - Mid Mic Crisis Mix For FABRICLIVE

Live at the Social Volume 2
"Seconds out, round two. Here come the hotstepper...
You know how the Social story goes. The Chemical Brothers took things to the 'next level', spending thirteen weeks blowing minds & rocking floors in a dank pub basement, mashing up breakbeats, old skool hip hop, acid house & wigged out rock 'n' roll to a crowd of 25 hour party people. The Albany days passed on into Heavenly history, as much a part of the equation as "Nothing Can Stop Us" or "Weekender" & moves were made onwards & upwards. Enter Jon Carter.
Jon Carter entered Social lore at The Albany, not behind the decks, but on the floor (in every sense). Jon was introduced to the club by regular face Mark Jones (the top boy in charge of the excellent Wall Of Sound label, becoming a full time bar fly at The Albany, moving from fresh faced to totally fucked every week. At the time, Jon was a studio engineer, working exclusively on jungle & dance hall tracks. Like so many of us, he got sucked into the whole Social thing - the weekend ends at 6 o'clock on Monday morning, two little birdies down & the biggest headache on the way. The week of the last Albany session, it was all back to someone's had been booted out. Since then, he's been one of the family. He'd made an odd little record for Wall Of Sound ("The Dollar", as Artery) which had the sound of a Social anthem in the making & he'd done a few DJing sessions back at people's houses after the club, blowing up ragga & bogle gear alongside Public Enemy, ZZ Top & The Jam. What was to come next was anyone's guess, which is probably why Heavenly got him on the pay roll.
At this point, Monkey Mafia was born. First came the rock 'n' roll freakbeat fest of "Blow The Whole Joint Up". Secondly, borrowing heavily from dance hall queen Patra, "Work Mi Body" arrived, seeing Jon settle into a groove previously untapped by man or woman. The 'Mafia wildstyle is radically different from the Chemicals (and, in turn, totally different to Mr. Fearless', but that's another compilation all together). The sound is best likened to that of a car full of Ganja'd up yardies driving into a brick wall at 5 o'clock on a Sunday morning while listening to Funkmaster Flex, The Who, The Bassbin Twins & Gregory Isaacs. It's a big summer sound that gets the sun shining, if only in your mind. It's Monday at Notting Hill Carnival, It's party music & it's a party that everyone's welcome to, the "all back to mine, let's wake up the neighbours" kind. It's a sound we've grown to love, like some mad kid you've adopted as one of your own. Much like Jon himself...

Those who have mattered... Tom & Ed Chemical; Jon Carter, Richard Fearless; Mark Jones; Brian, Beccy & all at The Albany; Ali; Frank Perkins; John & Danny Newman; Spence, Izzy & Will @ Lazy Eye; Johnny Chandler; Rory; Martje; Vanessa; Margo; Paolo; James Bailie"

Live At The Social Vol.2 (remastered)

London Grammar - Hey Now (VisionV Edit)

From the liner notes:

"The assocation between myself and Cream is not an obvious one, But the objective is to help break down the categorization within dance music. This mix hopefully gives a different perspective into another side of dance culture. Mixed by James Lavelle, additional mix, production and scratches by the Phyconauts. Mix down engineer - John Lyons, edits assistance by Richie Fermie. Recorded and fucked up at Dos Shot Studios/Mo' Wax London. "

***This came out before web reviews, however, IMHO, it's one of the most badass and technically accomplished mixes of its time.

The pic is an actual scan, the Cream logo is embossed and the light gold and gray print doesn't show up very well, but it's Cream for  sure... :-)

484 - MUZIK pres. DJ Lottie ‎– The True Sound Of... Ibiza Nights (2002)

The Chemical Brothers (or Dust Brothers as they were at the time) live at The Albany, London.

Sunday 14th August 1994.

Recorded on DAT by Robin Turner.

The jump into Boops at 27.52 is because the DAT was removed in order for Tom and Ed to play music they'd made in the studio that week (instrumental of Life is Sweet often got played around this time). Any record jumps were caused by people banging into the decks, or pogoing! (I'm guilty as charged in Voodoo People). Last record cuts off due to the DAT running out. 

Big up all the Heavenly Sunday Social crew.

Enjoy x
