T-Rek DJ set recorded live at Revolver Upstairs Sunday June 27th 2021

Mat Cant is to The Late Show what Soy Sauce is to dim sims.  Most reliable when applying A.M pressure in the club and who has steadily been building the sound scape for the TLSREVS front room for the last few years.  Whenhis not reviewing a pastie or upping the hypebeasts, Mat locks the room down with full garage assortments.

A live recording of our set on Sunday morning at Revolver !!

Hope you enjoy :)

Deep house sound with an acoustic guitar. With a little imagination, you'll find yourself in a crazy world in the bullring.

Wild World

Underground Echoes

For me personally this one is about spiritual growth and transformation. Breaking negative cycles, releasing old emotional baggage and leading to greater awareness and freedom.

This track is again built in combination of acoustic recordings, electronic soundscapes, deep bass lines and dance beats. In a moderately fast tempo, 115 bpm.

Karmic Shift

Went back to back with long time partner Son Ho for 2 hours at Revolver Upstairs alongside some of the Thursday residents.

Here's our set from 2 - 4am in the cage.

Hello, this will be the final episode of my Revolver Weekly Podcast, as I will now be converting it into my new Revolver Monthly Podcast.   I’m doing this because I was recently asked by Kiss FM Australia to do a weekly radio show for them.   ’T-Rek’s Freakshow Radio’ show will air Wednesday nights on Kiss FM Australia from 8.30-10pm AEST, and will also be available here on Soundcloud each week at the same time or just after.     I’ll be posting more details on the show itself tomorrow.   I will still be recording my sets at Revolver Upstairs each week, and at the end of each month I will choose what I think was the best set from that month and post it on Soundcloud.   This mix would definitely make the cut as my favourite that I’ve played in the past month or so.  One of those strangely magical mornings, where my selfish need to improvise and try out unfamiliar material melded perfectly with a dawn Revolver crowd that was more than up for the ride.  I’d potentially even use the word “journey”, but at the time of writing this, I’d prefer not to vomit in my own mouth….  

Thanks to everyone who has listened to my show regularly for the past 18 months, and I hope the fact that my upcoming weekly Soundcloud posts will now also feature my stupid voice don’t put you off continuing to listen regularly,

T-Rek.

P.S. I am currently releasing new T-Rek songs every month for the foreseeable future, (3 this year thus far).   If you’re a DJ type, or someone that still downloads music instead of just streaming it, feel free to shoot me a msg here or anywhere else you can find to contact me, and I’ll ad you to my promo list.   You will receive free download links in all formats for each and every T-Rek or Freakshow Disco Productions release.   I’ll have a link sorted soon so you can sign yourself up, but in the meantime, just get at me…

Blue Chip Mix #2: Disco Dining Room

"When the Pioneer mixers with the built in effects came out, it was a revelation. Not great mixers functionally, quite poor sound wise, but effects. Effects which could be utilised in time and using the line switch had a de-facto wet / dry capability. 

The first thing that crossed my mind was to record a mix of drum machine boogie dubs. I didn't have doubles of everything but the effects ushered in a new way to get loose.

This mix was recorded straight to DAT in 1999 (or whatever year the first generation of these mixers came out) during the day at Revs".

T-Rek is running out of facts about himself to try and impress you.

T-Rek is currently working on a slew of new club music collaborations, as well as reissuing some of his older material with new remixes etc.

T-Rek has decided to finish up here.

T-Rek would like to thank you for your time.
