About this CD:
This episode features a cd which further cemented my love of all things Groove Aramada, especially their earlier work. The unforgettable intro of 'Fly Me To The Moon' sets up a mix which flows between house, soul, disco and hip hop with ease. It was another education into all things 'eclectic' although that word does get on my tits some what. It's just 'playing whatever great music you feel like' isn't it.

Special shout out the the inclusion of Mr. Fingers - Can You Feel It, which I'm sure holds a special place in everyones heart and sets up the ending for another brilliant CD. (Not forgetting a nice bed time story ending from Patrick Moore). So turn it up, and enjoy the mix!

011 - Josh Wink - United DJs Of America - Volume 3: Philadelphia (1995)

This is my favorite EM of all time. Couldn't find it online anywhere, so I've re-uploaded it for you all to enjoy.

They just don't make music like this anymore. What a special time & place.

The Essential Mix is a weekly radio show on BBC Radio 1 currently broadcast between 0:00 - 2:00 AM UK time on Saturday morning. Originally broadcast on 30 October 1993, the Essential Mix features contemporary DJs and music producers of electronic dance music. The show has been presented since its inception by Pete Tong and features an uninterrupted two-hour mix from a different artist each week, overlaid with occasional continuity announcements delivered by Tong. With a broadcast run in excess of 25 years, the Essential Mix is one of the longest-running programmes in the current BBC Radio 1 schedule, and is one of very few Radio 1 shows which is not broadcast live.

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.
