We start with music from the bass end of the spectrum from Opiuo, JPOD and the classic dub version of Witness by Roots Manuva, moving onto 90’s hip hop from Lords of the Underground, Main Source and Showbiz & AG. The beats get heavy and the tempo increases with the Leisure All-stars, Krafty kuts & Mooqee before dropping into dubstep and through D n B, breaks and beats from DJ Zinc, Bassbin twins and Mr Ozio.

Solid Steel Radio Show 3/6/2011 Part 1 + 2 - Jackatak, HameOne & Antidote (Itchy & Skratchy Djs)

In Hour 2 we have a double-header of a mix starting with special guest Matt Berry, well known for his appearances in The IT Crowd, The Mighty Boosh and more recently Toast of London. He's also a musician in his own right with several albums under his belt, the latest being 'Music For Insomniacs'  where he channels the synthesised soundscapes of Vangelis and Mike Oldfield. There's no track list as he's currently recording the next series of Toast but he plugs into musicals like Jeff Wayne's War of the Worlds and Jesus Christ Superstar, soundtrack work by John Carpenter & Alan Howarth and pop from Paul McCartney, Bob Dylan and Kate Bush.
Following in his wake is DJ Food with the first installment of a new mix series called Magpie Music which focuses on distorted drums, fuzz bass and the more psychedelic side of his current tastes. Expect music from The Soundcarriers, Pond, tUnE-yArDs and the Osmonds plus unreleased gems from Mophono and The Group Modular.

This week, our guest is the man Banglash with his 'Subliminal Massage' mix. Hailing from the mean streets of Oxford, his mix has plenty of familiar names that have been chopped, looped and arranged to form a smooth passage through those boom-bap sounds and tracks that they've sampled. Expect Tribe, Amp Fiddler, Slum Village and J Rocc alongside classics from Donald Byrd, Eddie Kendricks and the truly sublime 'Wooden Ships' by Chris Harwood.

Helene's Kitchen Disco Rave Part 4

1) Tell us a bit about yourself and your record collection.

I began DJ-ing at the age of 15 in SW London, back in 1986. I had a large group of friends, we all did graffiti and we were all into Hip Hop and old funky tunes so there was always something interesting happening. By '88 I was starting to get regular DJ gigs, and I began making my own music in the mid-90's using a sample kit for my Commodore Amiga and a 4-track cassette player, along with extra scratching on the decks. Just after I graduated from Uni I signed to Ultimate Dilemma Recordings and started putting out singles, remixing and collaborating with other artists. By 1999 my first album came out; I had a band which toured europe playing my tunes live, with me on percussion and turntables. I left UD in 2001, and went to live in Ibiza as a resident DJ for Manumission and Space. In 2002 I put out my 2nd LP on Illicit Records, did a few more singles and remixes, then I kinda retired for a few years. I would still continue to DJ regularly. In the late 2000's I teamed up with another good friend and we started this comedy MC-ing thing called "Beeny Royston and Jadell", we ended up playing lots of festivals, Notting Hill Carnival and various other places. Fake Blood and I hooked up to produce 2 excellent MC's from New York called "BRONX SLANG" in 2019. We made an album which was a critical success, then a mixtape, then a second album in 2021. After that I have retired again from music for a little bit. I am still playing drums, buying yet more records and DJing at home though. That will never end.

2) 45/7 is all about celebrating the 7". Can you tell us a bit about what you love about the format.

I have always had a love for 7"s since I was little. My first ever memories are sitting on a pile of my parents' singles and sort of swatting them around the room, then my mum coming in and laughing.  Most of my pocket money went on buying 7"s all the way through until Hip Hop came around, then I went for the albums. The gritty determination to find unknown beats and solid grooves drove me back towards the 7-inches in the late 80's, and that has never let up. I just had to answer the front door, and it was the postman delivering me a 7-inch of "Cosmic Sea" by Mystic Moods that I'd just ordered from Germany. So there!

3) One hour of vinyl goodness... can you talk us through your selection for your 45/7 mix?

For this mix, I chose some of my all-time favourites, and also some new discoveries of recent years. Some of it is dancy, some of it is funky, some psychedelic, some sweet soul, some old pop, lots of NICE DRUMS. All of it is GOOD music. I quite liked the fact that this wasn't a mix with a dancefloor in mind, as I could choose some tunes I wouldn't really get a chance to play outside of my house. Owing to my past DJ memory muscle, I seem to have grouped styles together a little bit. DJ-ing is all about taking people with you on your personal journey of taste, I feel. I've hardly ever played what people call a "compromising" set. The few times I've had to do it (for example at weddings!) it's been one of the most depressing experiences ever.

4) Where can people catch you / listen to your music? 

Most of my JADELL stuff is on Spotify / Apple Music, lots of my remixes and the "Beeny Royston and Jadell" stuff is on YouTube. The BRONX SLANG is on all digital formats, and there is a vinyl of the first LP, well worth a check.

5) Top 5 all time fave records

These aren't in order because I don't want to put anything on that number one pedestal. These are 7-inch singles that I own:
1. "The Champ" by The Mohawks
2. "Get Up, Get into it, Get Involved" by James Brown
3. "For Real" by Flowers
4. "It's Just Begun" by The Jimmy Castor Bunch
5. "Give the Drummer Some" by Little Hooks

Solid Steel Radio Show 22/3/2013 Part 1 + 2 - Coldcut

From the edge of the Black Forest to the hamlets of Dorset, digging deep into the archives of the collective unconscious THE DANDELION SET make psyched-out, blow-your-mind sound nuggets with the un-selfconscious freedom of the 70's...
drawing from Library music, prog-folk, Krautrock and electronica these two nutty professors of sound, Julius Vanderbilt and Sinjin Makepeace weave a tapestry that depicts five decades of music history as witnessed through their ears.... 
music that is strange yet familiar to one and all...where the seeds of ideas,wisps of audio blown on the winds of fancy, take root and bloom into untamed flower..

Taster 1 from forthcoming Dandelion Cassette.
