Doe-ran - Bootlegs & B-Sides

Okay, this is a complicated one...
Back in 2006, Plushgrizzly from Aykaism.ch (now defunct) invited Jon H from Fort Knox Five to play a gig in Switzerland. He recorded the whole evening for a later broadcast on our common radiostation bigbeat.ch (now defunct). I'm not sure, we did ever play it, though... Not even sure if it was ever published in any way.
15 years later, I found this gem on my harddrive and played it during two episodes of my radioshow Eclectix, airing every Sunday, 6pm (cet), on evosonic.de.
First, I didn't want to upload it since I didn't know if it's okay with his friends and family over in DC, but after being asked by FK5 to upload it somewhere public, so they can share it with the world, I guess it is okay... ;)

For those not in the know: Jon H was 1/4 of Fort Knox Five, who died 6 years ago way to early in August 2015. He was an inspiration for way more people all around the world, than he could ever think of and I'm one of them. Thank you, Jon, for everything.

Funk Breaks & Beats

Funk! Breaks & Beats #1 - 2023/01/29

I really enjoyed making this Ableton Mashup Mix !

There's over 60 tracks in this mix, all mixed in key, all over the place but all still work well. Cutting, copying, pasting and making edits on the fly with just the elements of each track you hear.

Pretty sure your going to dig this one x

Pecoe - Throw It All In Volume 5

My Free Downloads Mix. 

Over the years I’ve given away lots & lots of free tune downloads. I think it’s prob about 100 in total! It dawned on me one day that it would be pretty cool to put together a mix featuring a load of my favourites from over the years. From my first ever freebie, the re-edit of The Prodigy ‘Narayan’ from back in 2008 which was a bit of a killer, dance floor filling, secret weapon in the Break da House days. To the latest, a great new version of the iconic Bruce Hornsby tune ‘The Way It Is’ that I used to listen to on cassette over & over again when I was a little kid back in the 80's. There’s a bunch of other great ones that didn’t make the mix like my whole Ghetto Funk EP from 2013, my NWA ‘Straight Outa Compton’ remix that’s one of my most ever played on Soundcloud & loads from the That’s Not An Edit series that I’ve done 13 freebies for now. 

I tried to include the full spectrum of genres I’ve been making over the years. Starting off funky into nu disco. Then from a bit of mid tempo bass into house & breaks. Even finishing off with my only ever go at dubstep or dugstep. 

So without further a do here’s 24 tunes (just) over 90 mins of my best freebies… ENJOY!

Aaron's Ghetto Funk Mix

This is my first Bootlegs & B-Sides of 2025 and it's with a heavy heart that I dedicate it to Andrew Cerutti, who tragically passed away this week.
Andy was my show's biggest Champion. He was also a musical guru and from the outpouring of grief on social media, he was clearly loved and highly respected in the culture.  I used to chat with him weekly and still can't believable that he is gone.
Rest in Peace, Brother and thanks for everything.

NEW SINGLE – 'COMING ON STRONG' 
OUT NOW: https://theallergies.lnk.to/ComingOnStrong

The duo of DJ Moneyshot and Rackabeat have been delighting dance-floors and lighting up the radio airwaves since forming The Allergies and releasing their debut album in 2016.

Year in, year out, they’ve sharpened their skills on the turntables and in the studio, dropping one dynamite record after another. Clocking up ‘Album of The Day’ gongs, national ad campaign spots, and Radio 6 Music A-list status, the pair show no sign of stopping the fun.

After consecutive top 40 albums, the boys just dropped number seven, FREAK THE SPEAKER. And it’s another stellar showcase for their feel-good funk, soul sampling savvy, and party-starting hip-hop. 

This year they’ll be taking to stages, tents, fields, and cities, supporting the album with their ‘full-band’ live show. But, if you want to catch them in their element, check Moneyshot and Rackabeat cutting up the wax, too, as they take their DJ show to clubs and festivals, far and wide. From Space in Ibiza, to Glastonbury festival, they’ve shook stages and rocked spots.

So, if you like crazy turntable skills, hands-in-the-air beats, all mixed up with some classy crowd rocking music, then an Allergies double-decking DJ set will be right up your street. 

“The Allergies music is big, bouncy and fat! Just how I like my funk” – Craig Charles, BBC Radio 6 Music
