Sydney DJ, audio guru, avid cyclist, traveler and burner from Wellington, New Zealand. Lover of all beats music, but mostly good house music of all styles.

Tim fell in love with dance music in the mid 90's while he was studying engineering in Wellington, and was mentored by a local club resident DJ, who taught him how to mix on vinyl. From here he went on to play in some of Wellington's best bars and clubs before moving to Australia.

Initially playing bar gigs in Sydney to support his studies, Tim then became resident at regular monthly house night Fold.

Tim has since moved away from playing bars and clubs, focussing on Burning Seed fundraisers and festivals, including playing at Subsonic and founding the Burning Seed theme camp Spice.

Former host of the weekly Deep End radio show on Bondi Beach Radio, and more recently Bondi Radio.  Currently taking a break and looking for a new home.

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. 

For any CD recommendations, bookings, mixes or feedback you can catch me as @asapgareth on Instagram. Or you can check our my design work at www.acid.works
