Lost my copy ,Brilliant mix and top times 😎

Just one of the few original mixes out there.

When funk soul brother drops, the whole mix just makes 100% sense, capturing that amazing time of dance music!! The Beatles of dance period.

The whole thing makes sense at this point 🔥🔥🔥

Jon Carter Glastonbury 2019 DJ Mix

Live at the Social Volume 2
"Seconds out, round two. Here come the hotstepper...
You know how the Social story goes. The Chemical Brothers took things to the 'next level', spending thirteen weeks blowing minds & rocking floors in a dank pub basement, mashing up breakbeats, old skool hip hop, acid house & wigged out rock 'n' roll to a crowd of 25 hour party people. The Albany days passed on into Heavenly history, as much a part of the equation as "Nothing Can Stop Us" or "Weekender" & moves were made onwards & upwards. Enter Jon Carter.
Jon Carter entered Social lore at The Albany, not behind the decks, but on the floor (in every sense). Jon was introduced to the club by regular face Mark Jones (the top boy in charge of the excellent Wall Of Sound label, becoming a full time bar fly at The Albany, moving from fresh faced to totally fucked every week. At the time, Jon was a studio engineer, working exclusively on jungle & dance hall tracks. Like so many of us, he got sucked into the whole Social thing - the weekend ends at 6 o'clock on Monday morning, two little birdies down & the biggest headache on the way. The week of the last Albany session, it was all back to someone's had been booted out. Since then, he's been one of the family. He'd made an odd little record for Wall Of Sound ("The Dollar", as Artery) which had the sound of a Social anthem in the making & he'd done a few DJing sessions back at people's houses after the club, blowing up ragga & bogle gear alongside Public Enemy, ZZ Top & The Jam. What was to come next was anyone's guess, which is probably why Heavenly got him on the pay roll.
At this point, Monkey Mafia was born. First came the rock 'n' roll freakbeat fest of "Blow The Whole Joint Up". Secondly, borrowing heavily from dance hall queen Patra, "Work Mi Body" arrived, seeing Jon settle into a groove previously untapped by man or woman. The 'Mafia wildstyle is radically different from the Chemicals (and, in turn, totally different to Mr. Fearless', but that's another compilation all together). The sound is best likened to that of a car full of Ganja'd up yardies driving into a brick wall at 5 o'clock on a Sunday morning while listening to Funkmaster Flex, The Who, The Bassbin Twins & Gregory Isaacs. It's a big summer sound that gets the sun shining, if only in your mind. It's Monday at Notting Hill Carnival, It's party music & it's a party that everyone's welcome to, the "all back to mine, let's wake up the neighbours" kind. It's a sound we've grown to love, like some mad kid you've adopted as one of your own. Much like Jon himself...

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
