About the CD:
So back in the day Deep Dish were one of those mythical dj partnerships we didnt get to see too much in the UK but were held up there with the likes of Danny Tenaglia and of course the UK god's that were Sasha and Digweed. Label bosses of the excellent Yoshitoshi records and regular faces on the legendary Global Ungerground cd's. Although this disc doesn't go down as an all time favourite for me it does define the late 90's and some great times clubbing which is certainly enough to get into the series.

About the CD:
I was always aware of Bukem, another DJ who managed to make underground rumblings to the listeners of the British dance scene without  us seemingly knowing who they even were... we just knew about them anyway.  immediately fell in love with this CD once Makoto's 'Inside Your Love' rolled in with MC Conrad's silky smooth mc'ing riding over the top. I'd always loved drum and bass from a distance, but from hearing that track... I was forever a massive fan. I bought into the Good Looking label, bought alot of old releases, all the mix cd's and then fell in love with Bukem's downtempo sister label 'Cookin Records'. This influence was one of the main sounds of my early vinyl days and has gone on to educate and delight for another decade and more. Play it loud, ride the groove, feel the bass. BUKEM!

Scott Bradford (Shindig/Lexicon Avenue) recommends 'Back to Basics - Cut the Crap - Disc 3 mixed by Ralph Lawson' (1996).

We've got a special recommendation to celebrate our 40th episode of the classic mix CD series from Scott Bradford, who of course is, known for being behind, one of the longest running and most influential club nights in the UK, Shindig in Newcastle. Which amazingly kicked off in 1992 and is now stronger than ever with sell out parties every month at their new home, Warehouse 34. Scott is also well known for his Lexicon Avenue productions and Forensic Records label and has generally been a legend bringing house music’s finest to everyone for over 20 years.

He’s recommended disc 3 from back to Basics ‘cut the crap’ CD, which  features mixes from Derrick Carter, Andrew Weatherall, and this mix from Ralph Lawson. Now Considering it came out in 1996 that’s a ridiculously good shout  So Thanks for sharing it with us Scott, it’s much appreciated and here’s hoping for another great 20 odd years for Shindig, yourself and all the gang . So Turn it up and enjoy the mix!

I got this for a random gift from my girlfriend at the time, and I remember always being a pleasure getting anything with Lawler's name on it. Seems he's still packing out clubs around the world now although it's been a while since I last heard him... is he still banging out his dark drums or changed around a bit? Let us know below!

Hey, Gareth here, I'm a graphic designer who start designing for clubs, parties, and labels in the late 90s. Back then, mix CDs were the holy grail of both design and music. I loved them.

But I wasn't the only one, mix cds were the soundtracks of our nights, our days, our afterparties and lives, for everyone. Yet in today's internet age, the art form has been lost (or just changed) to 2-3 hour online mixes and streaming videos, which just don't create the same magic your CD collection did. Just 60 minutes of music and incredible artwork.

The Classic Mix CD Series celebrates these discs, their soundtrack, their box art and your memories. We hope you enjoy it.

Also, we try to help you find and buy them again by sharing Discogs links on all featured CDs and or direct links to labels where possible.

* We fully support labels and artists. If any disc creates a copyrighting issue let me know and it will be immediately removed.

About Gareth:
Digital creative type, gamer, music lover and occasional DJ. Currently living between Dubai & Seoul after setting sail from Sunderland in 2010. As a young designer, club and music culture was the driving force for his work, producing artwork for local club nights and record labels in the North East of England. In particular, DJ mix cds and their packaging were always his 'holy grail of design', especially those from Renaissance, Global Underground and Good Looking Records. It's a pleasure to share these discs back with people and they still influence our tastes to this day. 

For any CD recommendations, bookings, mixes or feedback you can catch me as @asapgareth on Instagram. Or you can check our my design work at www.acid.works
