This Friday just gone I found myself at the Big Beat Reunion in London's lovely but shady Jammm in Brixton, one of my old stomping grounds. I'm always slight wrong-footed by South London ... even though I know it so well, it has an intensity about it that you seldom find North of the river with layer on layer of humanity battling for survival space. As an example, the cab ride back to the hotel afterwards was full of banter & was strangely worth the £22 I was knowingly being *fleeced* for a four mile ride.

To say the gig was an unusual one for me to take would be understatement. I've never before agreed to do an old skool / big beat set, and despite the huge time-drain of 3 full days of preparation, it was actually a great - re-education sifting through the piles of old vinyl. Each banger I unearthed was greeted like a long lost friend, even to the point of 'knowing smiles' accompanying the recall of each bit of vinyl's unique quirks. Trying to mix these rough & ready slices of history together was a whole new ballgame & my plan to journey from 107 - 137 bpm seemed like a good idea in principal, but in practice it was a wild beast of a ride, and one that was hard to tame for much of the time.

Here is the set in all it's rough glory. Thanks to the Noise crew for snagging a most unexpected recording. Grab it quickly - not sure how long I want this one up here for!

Big Beat Reunion - Elite Force Live Mix March 2011

Look, I'm going to miss playing my 2nd ever Breakfast of Champions New Year's Day party since the whole thing began back in the 1900s. I'm not mad about it—it's good to mix things up now and then, so while a bunch of my favorite humans are getting grinnin' & sweatin' with Space Cowboys n friends over at the block party in front of The Great Northern, I'll be skiin' & grinnin' in the snow. 

Still, every year around this time my brain is hardwired to go into deep track discovery mode. Even tho I'm not playing a BoC set, I still had to scratch that itch, so... here's the result. Drum n Bass for Santa. 

Happy Ho-Ho-Holidays, Frens!
