Shack, this set is literally a part of my mental wellbeing programme in 2021 too. Thanks again for this level of awesomeness

Great festival vibes mate.  Remenber the Glade a few years back.  That was epic

Another Essential Mix from 2003 was from another Nu Skool Breaks legend Adam Freeland. Pretty much the height of his career at this time with so many tunes under his belt from his label Marine Parade and so many bootlegs under different alias's it was a healthy time for the breaks scene and much loved by all.

This mix was aired on BBC Radio 1 Essential Mix from Adam Freeland back in 2003.

Dave Juric @ TRIBE '22 ft Stanton Warriors & Krafty Kuts

Aloha,

Here you go my friends, something different from me….

This is not a promo mix and I’m not trying to generate work off the back of it, it’s simply a mid-tempo DJ mix.  I have been collecting tracks for a while that didn’t seem to fit anywhere in my sets, but that I really love, so I decided to put them into a mix in their own right… music with a late night, deep & sleazy electronic feel, full of atmosphere, with a splattering of dark funk thrown in. 

I’ve got plenty of brand new peak time releases coming shortly on my Lowering The Tone imprint, from Pook/ & Lola, Lee Coombs, Matt Goddard/Dopamine, Ben Coda, Carbon Kingdom and myself, but in the meantime welcome to the “Den Of Iniquity” :-)

Enjoy!!

Mark (Meat Katie)

Meat Katie 'Den Of Iniquity'  Late Night DJ Mix (2023)

An incredible day was had by all in Budapest in late May on the Cruisin / Be Massive 20th Anniversary Boat Party on the Danube. 

My great friend (and amazing DJ/Producer) Metha invited me to celebrate Be Massive's anniversary and the brief was ... 'please play some classics from across the years as well as some new stuff - and we'd love to hear a little Zodiac Cartel too'.

This is the result. 
900 people. 
Nothing but the best vibes.

Much love,
Simon

FMG 30 YEAR ANNI SET

This is my set from the Beats 4 Love Festival which took place at Dolní Vítkovice in Ostrava, Czech Republic, in the summer of 2023.

Since I returned to the fray in 2023, I've been using Ableton and a number of controllers to create my sets and am loving the flexibility it gives me to do deeper dives into edits, overdubs, mashups and mixes. It wasn't uncommon during this set to have four or five audio channels running simultaneously. I hope you enjoy the ride!

Elite Force (aka Simon Shackleton) - Beats For Love Festival 2023

A RE:CONSTRUCTED set is a *long* way removed from a standard DJ set. Here's how it works.

Simon takes hundreds of tracks from his huge library, painstakingly deconstructs them (using Ai if needed to separate elements from the original tracks), and then pieces everything back together to create a hugely emotive and immersive musical story.

He uses Ableton Live and multiple controllers to trigger up to 16 individual channels of audio at any one time during the performance, and also performs live keyboard overdubs. The end result is a hugely addictive, compulsive and compelling blend of music that's often new, often familiar but always utterly unique.

This is storytelling on a giant canvas, and in 2024 we will be adding visuals and further live instrumentation to these RE:CONSTRUCTED sets.

Meat Katie 'Lowering The Tone’ Podcast - Episode 23 (Exclusive Classic Breakbeat & Tech-Funk Mix)

As part of our up coming 'Ten' project (which celebrates ten years of MC Shureshock and I having worked together) we are digging through the digital crates to find a bunch of old mixes we have done. This first one is a personal fave of mine. It's a mix I did for a magazine called 'Remix' in 2000 and was one of the first 'official' mixes I ever did. It may be from 2000, and it may now be 10 years old, but damn the beats still sound fresh! Oh and this was pre-Ableton days! i.e. it was done by mixing records together on two Technics turntables and a mixer (via pasting a hundred million takes together mind you!). Anyways, download and enjoy a bit of our ten year history! Much love, KK x. 

PS we will be uploading more mixes to soundcloud.com/klubkids also!

With the world in partial lockdown, this 1-hour LIVE set was specially curated and performed in June 2020 to celebrate Glastonbury 2020 for my friends at the legendary GLADE stage.

I used 8 Ableton decks, 6 channels of live keyboard overdubs, an APC40, Launchkey 61 and 4 full days of my time to lovingly piece this one together. 

If anyone's able to correctly identify each component part of this mix, I'll send you my entire record collection. Muah!!
