OUR 3RD INSTALLMENT OF IN THE MIX COMES ALL THE WAY FROM BRUSSELS, BELGIUM; THE PIONEERS OF INDUSTRIAL/TECHNO KNOWN AS FRONT 242. DUE TO THE GREAT PANDEMIC OF 2020, EVERYONE'S PLANNED WORLD TOUR HAS COME TO A HALT. PRESENTED HERE IS A UNIQUE TIME-TRAVELLER MIX RUNNING OVER 2 HOURS LONG. THESE TRACKS WERE PREPARED BY RICHARD 23 FOR THE BAND'S AUDIENCE PRIOR TO SHOWTIME INCLUDING CLASSIC ELECTRONIC MUSIC (PRE-DATING FRONT 242), TRACKS THAT HAVE INFLUENCED THE BAND & "CALM BEFORE THE STORM" SELECTIONS WHICH WOULD LEAD INTO 242'S HIGH ENERGY STAGE ATTACK.  PRIOR TO LISTENING, RICHARD EXPLAINS THE IMPORTANCE OF INDEPENDENT RECORD STORES, EARLY PURCHASES THAT HAD AN AFFECT ON HIM AND HOW THESE SHOPS WERE INTEGRAL TO THE BAND ITSELF. AN INSIGHTFUL AND DEEPLY PERSONAL TRIBUTE TO OUR CULTURE WHICH WE ARE HIGHLY THANKFUL FOR.

HALSTON of NEURAL STIMULUS RECORDINGS (NSR) / https://halston.club / BOOKINGS: Judd512@comcast.net  I’ve been a Disc Jockey now since 1992, starting at age 15 when I bought my first Technics SL-1200MK2 turntable and DJ mixer along with starting to buy vinyl records just as the rave parties were starting to come about in The San Francisco Bay Area and of course in the U.K., Canada and Europe. Back then I started to buy and read Mixmag, Muzik Magazine along with DJ Mag for years. Since I have amassed an extensive vinyl (7000+) & CD (500+) collection, along with a huge collection of high quality digital audio files over the years in my computer. I play mostly progressive house, deep house, and techno music, along with sets of industrial & new wave and ambient music, which were my musical interests prior to the rave parties of the 90’s. I’ve loved electronic music since I was young from Duran Duran to Depeche Mode to New Order to Ministry, Skinny Puppy, FRONT 242, Siouxsie & The Banshees, to DJs Sasha & John Digweed, Tiga, Jeno & Garth, and The Hardkiss Brothers (Scott, Robbie & Gavin Hardkiss) the list is endless. Today I still love to use vinyl records in my sets along with digital files & CDs. As an audio engineer from SAE Expression College I prefer to use vinyl records or AIFF/WAV files when I am putting out an 320kpbs MP3 recording of a set that I’m DJing so as to keep the best sound quality. I love to craft a journey using music for others to enjoy along with introducing brand new artists and songs within my sets.  –HALSTON aka DJJUDD
