I have this track somewhere! Such a great time for dance music

I usually need to open my all night sets at Ramrod more gradually as the crowd slowly shuffles in. Not so during the monthly Pig Dance, where the club is visually and sonically transformed into a more high profile affair. The place was packed by 10:30 and the opening couple of hours of this set represents my vision of what opening tracks should be on a big night. Certain sounds that hype and beckon the crowd in, setting up what’s to come during peak hours.

“Here They Come!” is a quote from a documentary about Junior Vasquez during the peak of his career in the early 90s when he’d play Sound Factory every Saturday. He was filmed from the booth shouting this to the camera early in the night. There is something special about being the only DJ on the night, and as his crowd filed in early as well, he knew what he was going to deliver to those happy folks some hours later.

With music from: Matteo Dentone; Norty Cotto; Rick Silva; DJ PP; Italobros; Gabriel Rojas & more.

“&HER” is a journey through raw electronics and emotional intensity, where dark rhythms meet luminous fragments of memory. The E.P. pays tribute to the person who inspired it, opening and closing with pieces that carry her essence, while collaborations with Ravetop and Noromakina expand the sonic spectrum. Every beat is a fragment of soul, crafted with devotion to keep her spirit resonating on the dancefloor.

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
