Few can claim to have their names featured on dance music's most respected mix compilations, but Anthony Pappa is one of those. With seminal mixes with both Renaissance and Global Underground that are nothing short of stuff of legend. In fact his 'Renaissance presents' released in 1999 pretty much single handedly fuelled our lads summer holiday to Kavos, which despite not quite being the dance music mecca that is Ibiza, that one disc made us feel like it was just as good. And it still sounds just as good now.

So it's with great pleasure to present a brand new mix recorded live from Anthony's recent set in Beirut, February 2017. It's a winner. (Shout out to Neil at Electric Ibiza for the hook up!). Many thanks for tuning in and expect more exclusive mixes very soon.

SESSIONS 07 - Anthony Pappa

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.
