344 - Dimitri From Paris 'In The House' - Disc 1 (2004)

Based in Bristol, I have been collecting house & techno records for over 20 years and am very much a vinyl obsessive. 
When I DJ my main emphasis is to keep it deep, but keep it interesting with plenty of bite. I like to play everything from warm and melodic deep house to stripped back glitchy minimal, dub-techno through to pulsating techno - joining the dots between so that the musical variations logically interconnect and don't sound disjointed.
I am resident DJ & one of the founding members of the Bristol based Mi Casa Su Casa Crew. Our aim is to put on bespoke, intimate parties where there is a real sense of community & belonging. To date I have played alongside international talent such as Dave DK, Steve O’Sullivan, Christopher Rau, Oliver Deutschmann, Marco Shuttle, Vera, Roberto, Roman Lindau, Locked Groove, Johanna Knutsson, Shinedoe  & Eli Verveine

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.

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.
