Connect Festival Saturday Artists Mixtape

So this is my first mix of 2023. A fair bit of thought went into it. Personally this year has been very difficult, losing a parent, recovering from a nasty injury and contracting covid again! 

Music and DJing have always been one of my ways of dealing with things when my own mental health has dipped, losing myself for a couple of hours behind the decks makes me smile again.

With this mix, I wanted to reference some of the DJs, Artists and Records that have influenced what I play and why. The mix starts with an homage to John Peel with Joy Division and Soft Cell featuring. Then I move into my record collection with EBTG and Chicane’s chilled drum and bass mix before more soulful sounds from Alabama Shakes. 

Bootman - To the Hip is one of my all time favorite tracks. I first heard it on a Justin Robertson mixtape that inspired me that I wanted to DJ aged 15.  Moving on I was keen to include recent finds. Felix Tapes’ remix of Washington Square’s been on a few driving to work mixtapes and I absolutely love it. I was keen also to reference some quality 90’s Hip-hop midway before Gil Scott Heron’s political Soul Casbah 73 mix - So Nice!  Into the second half of the mix I’ve always been inspired by Optimo and the style of tunes they play.  Liquid Liquid and Q Lazzarus get dropped from Optimos 250 list!
The 3 pieces - Backed Up Against The Wall sums up how I was feeling for most of March so it had to feature.  To finish - again one of my favorite records -  Mercury Rev’s Holes into Sigur Ros - Hoppipolla Lost Colours remix rounds up a mix where I tried to leave a fair bit of myself on the sleeve. 
Hope you enjoy it!

Disco Funk Hour

First studio mix I've recorded for a while. I recently bought a new controller and moved over to rekordbox after 15 years using serato software. It's taken a little time to adjust to the new setup.

Taken From Yesterday

For my latest mix I thought I'd dive deep into my collection and play some personal favorites and tunes that I've played out over the summer.  There's plenty of funk and soul in there mixed with some more varied stuff from all over the world. 

Thanks for listening. I Hope you dig it!!

Taking Care Podcast Episode 1 

Trying something different for a change, I invite you to let you listen to an hour of me introducing some of my favorite records and talking briefly about where I bought them or what they make me think of.. I’ve been collecting them for over 25 years and I suppose they've had a tough life being moved around all through flats and houses I lived in during my 20’s and 30’s. Not to mention being carried to parties and venues usually in my bike messenger bag! I’m kind of pleased now they are out of storage and going through a cleaning and reorganisation program. 

The podcast features a wide range of tunes from the likes of  Orbital to Sade, I hope you listen and enjoy it!

Taking Care Podcast  - Episode 1

This mix is a practice of the set I played at Fynefest , I hoped to record the sets live from the festival however due to technical issues this wasn’t possible. Both these mixes are a bit faster tempo and more bounce for the dancefloor, because I was after the Kadet vs 1995 I also wanted to feature a few obscure covers and remixes of 80’s,90’s and 00’s. Had some kids breakdancing and a wee girl riding in and out of the tent on her bike, so that made me really happy! The rest of the Festival was great, loads of lovely beer, friendly folk and great music.

So this is my final set recorded live after two summers playing at Stewart Brewing in their beer garden. I wanted to go out with a bang and play some of my favorite tunes and also a few new ones. - Special Thanks to all my friends who came and caught my DJ sets over the two summers, I really appreciate it! 
Playing for three hours is perfect for me as it lets me move across multiple genres and really get into a groove and enjoy my DJing..

Some of you would have heard these tracks or mixes on other mixtapes however I really like the flow of this over the three hours. I dipped in and out of this setlist over the weekend at the Borderlands beer festival down at Tempest Brewing which was such a great experience. 

I’m now looking forward to a wee break from playing gigs where I want to focus on a couple of  mixtapes that are more for me rather than the tunes I’d play for people in a bar or at a festival. Plus I’m keen to follow up to the podcasts I did last winter.
