October

Last month on the 13th of October, we invited house music hero & all round good guy Derrick Carter to bring his 'Derrick Does Disco' party to the Sub Club helping to celebrate GLASGAY! 20th Anniversary.

The source of many a man-crush (particularly from our local DJ geeks and record freaks) our sexy affair with Derrick has spanned a good couple of decades. Perhaps it’s his desirable physique, that intense beaded brow around 2am or his disarmingly charming manliness from the moment we met him off the plane.

Either way we’re always hot for him and so was everyone in the crowd who joined us as we got down and dirty in a darkened room and showed each other some serious loving, with no strings attached till 3am.

With Derrick in control for the full four hours we had to get the roadblocks out. Here is an hour of this amazing set specially picked out by the one man block party himself.

NEXT STOP IS A LONDON REUNION WHERE HE JOINS HARRI & DOMENIC IN THE SUB CLUB POD FOR RED BULL'S REVOLUTIONS IN SOUND WHICH WILL BE BROADCAST LIVE ON CHANNEL 4OD. TURN ON, TUNE IN & DROP OUT X

The Crazycookerz - Fall In ( DLD  )

"DABA, is a Moroccan song Ringing with Rabab's Najid divine voice and the Great musicians Hamada Hammy, El Mahmoud, Karim Hassnaoui, all produced by Kawtar Sadik, it's a tribute to our ancestors to the Moroccan Aita Music Culture, listen to the sacred song in peace that speaks of ancient traditions of far-off lands.

Aita music soothes the soul gently traveling, like a slow stroll leading the listener on journey
Into memories that never fade away.
Rabab voice that sparkle, Hamada's OUD that shine, the vibrant and intense violon of El Mahmoud, the special Bass of Karim It pierces the heart and all crowned by the strong voice of Kawtar Sadik who continues to radiate and highlight Moroccan culture to the whole world.

So, hear the stories, hidden within DABA that tell tales of distant lands of dancing feet, stories, and dreams take a trip through these Moroccan streams, a song full of Hope passion and divinity.
"

Barbarella's near Tisno in Croatia is a truly open air club modelled on the great original 1970 & 80s outdoor venues from Italy and Ibiza like Amnesia, Peter Pan and Baia Degli Angeli. The hot starry nights suit a mix of balearic, disco and house music and it was an honour to open for Kerri Chandler at this year's Electric Elephant festival.  

Here you have my full live session recorded between 2-4am on July 7th 2016.

756 - Joey Negro - Disco House (1995)

I'm a sometimes DJ and collector of music across digital and vinyl formats. I've been spinning since '93 and find inspiration in a wide range of styles including deep house, minimal, dub techno, techno, drum n bass. Mostly retired and have been living in Sydney since 2021. I present a regular show on global radio station BPM Radio every Friday 8am UK/5pm Sydney.

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
