Not sure how this qualifies as “classic”

Originally started in 2005, selecting a few sexy laid back tracks for valentines day... the series has evolved and now opened up to friends and family. Pulling heavy influence from the 'Back to Mine' and 'Another Late Night' classic CD vibe. So we're continuing the late night grooves with some of the best eclectic selectors around.

Pour a wine or a whisky, and enjoy.

About the CD:
For our 23rd episode we once again asked a friend of the site for their favourite all time CD. Andy Buchan is editor of Dubai's leading music and events publication, the fortnightly Infusion magazine. He's written for Mix Mag, DJ mag and Q magazine so he know's a thing or two about music. He's also one of the Dubai's best DJ's. Running his award winning alternative night Loaded and the famous dubstep and bass night SYNF amongst others. Andy has warmed up for anyone and everyone from 2ManyDJ's, to Norman Jay, Beardyman to Chase and Status and held down residencies at pretty much every quality venue in Dubai.

He originally picked Francios K's Choice disc... but as we just had a Choice disc from our last guest (We Luv's Ian Blevins) he also recommended Francios K's superb Essential Mix (Disc One). Which is a storming journey of starting with house and quickly moving into funk, disco, soul and everything in between. With from James Brown, Level 42, Maurizio, George Benson, Chaka Khan, Kyoto Jazz Massive to name a few... it's easy to see why Francios K has formed such legendary status with many of the finest selectors out there. If you love this mix... you're amongst very good company. Salute! 

023 - Francios K's Essential Mix - Disc 1 (2000) Recommended by Andy Buchan (Infusion Magazine)

Enjoy!

094 - Journeys by DJ: After Hours (1995)

Another New York house hero joins us for our next Faith party on Sep 23 at 93 Feet East and Cevin Fisher has put together an hour taster of what we can expect with this fabulous mix 
With a huge house legacy dating back to early performances at Paradise Garage, The Loft and Zanzibar and a rich production career that includes the massive 'The Freaks Come Out' and 'Love You Some More' that Cevin recently remixed and released on our label. He includes the remix in this masterful mix, we can't wait for his Faith debut in a couple of weeks.

Faith 025: Cevin Fisher guest mix

Ahead of our appearance on the 8th October at Defected Malta where we host a house foundations (86-96) stage, Stuart Patterson has compiled a mix of some Faith favourites from the period.  100% vinyl it takes in early vocals from Intense, Tammy Banks and Velma Wright, deepness from Precious and Swing 52.  Darker and tribal sounds from Funky Green Dogs and Kiwi Dreams, a touch of wild pitch from DJ Pierre in his Phuture Scope guise and a drop of acid from The Endless Poker. Plus plenty more early house joints that help shaped the house music phenomenon  that still stands strong today.

Velma Wright - You're Not Right 
Intense - Holdin' On
Tammy Banks - My Life
Swing 52 - You Keep Holding Back 
Mystique feat Kid Valdez - Heartbreaker

Stuart Patterson - Faith Foundations 86-96

Introducing a man we've admired for over a decade now. Probe Rok, a New York based film maker, photographer and heavyweight DJ. Who we first heard on the most excellent 'Elevations Radio NYC' show. Full of broken beat, soul and hip hop goodness.

For this mix he returns to his frequent slow jam, funk, r&b and soul sound. Perfect for our 'One for Later' series. Which pays homage to the 'Back to Mine' CDs of the 90s and beyond.

Tracklist coming soon.

Uploading some old mixes in light of the new, relaxed rules for DJ mixes on SoundCloud... if it's true... shout out to SoundCloud!

This mix was originally done in 2006 for a bit of fun just before Valentines Day. Something to get the lovers in the mood with smooth sounds and (mostly) female vocals throughout. It was supposedly played by a Leeds radio station thanks to my mate Allie, and was one of my most popular mixes before it eventually got took down. But now it's back for your listening pleasure, enjoy!

One for the Ladies Vol.1  - GarethisOnit (2006)

Re-loading this now mixes on SoundCloud seem to have some breathing space. It's the third mix in the 'One for the Ladies' mix take a 'Dubai Ladies Night' twist, banging out class chart from the 80's, 90's and beyond that the lasses love mixed in with a few cooler numbers like Slum Village amongst others.

It also pretty much sums up the vibe down at LeftBank on a Wednesday night where I used to play.

Mix cds were the soundtracks of our nights, our days, our afterparties, our lives. But in the internet age, the artform has been lost to online mixes which simply don't create the same magic your CD collection did. The Classic Mix CD Series celebrates these discs, their soundtrack, their box art and your memories. We hope you enjoy it.

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.
