The The 264 Cru lads asked me to put a selection together for their 'The Comedown' mixes, designed to provide end of week, lazy listening from some of the city's finest selectors. The mix features new music from Glenn Astro, Archy Marshall, Henry Wu, Mike Gao, K15, Stro Elliot, Sokro, No Puls, Profusion and Frederick. It's a reflection of my more leftfield tastes, some of which you can here for during the beautiful Pierchic sunsets. Give it a spin, it's a Saturday after all.

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.

For the third instalment of the new _SESSIONS series we invited old friend Eddie Leader from Hudd Traxx for what is a mix of the highest house calibre. We originally met in the early 2000s in our student years, djing at our local party and since then Eddie has gone on to run a successful label, Hudd Traxx for over 12 years now and dj all around the world.

The label has received worldwide support from DJ's like Luciano, Loco Dice, Derrick Carter, Mark Farina, Josh Wink & more. Hudd Traxx music has been licensed to various compilations including Ministry Of Sound, Fabric & OM. If that's not house music royalty we don't know what is. 

Thanks for the mix Eddie!

SESSIONS_04 comes from friend of the show, Antony Daly aka 586 of the most excellent 586 Records in Newcastle, England. We've actually had this on the iPod for years but Tony has very kindly offered it up again for a re-airing. It really it quite seminal stuff. Be sure to call into 586 Records when you're in town and here's a few words from the man himself...

'Recorded, late into the Night, January 2003. A live, one hit mix via Suade's Studio in Sandyford, Newcastle upon Tyne. A personal soundtrack to a difficult time in my life. Poor health and unrequited love. Hopefully, the lyrics in these great songs and the overall mood of the mix, reflect that. Enjoy and thanks for listening'.

For the 5th instalment, we hooked up with Dubai's number one hat wearing, vinyl addict... Shadi Megallaa. He's got links to some of the city's finest musical happenings, such as the immensely good Analog Room (which is nothing short of a Dubai institution) and also runs the Ark to Ashes label. This mix called... 'Less is More' is over 15 years old, yet remains one of his favourite personal selections. We agree, it's exceptional. Many thanks fella!

Some words from Shadi:
'Less is More is my 2nd proper mix from back in the early 2000s. The 1st one being a mix called Impulse. It was recorded on a Philips CDR 775 Recorder. Back in those days there were no daws or digital recording. The mix was recorded in real time on a cd. One mistake & you had to throw away the cd and start all over.  I guess you can feel that tension in the mix & hence why it still sounds good almost 15 years later. Hope you enjoy it.'

TCMCD_SESSIONS 09
I originally stumbled across Jonny's mixes and music from the excellent Nuwaveradio.net and immediately had this mix, and many of his others on repeat. Jonny's been a regular for the legendary Southport Weekender festival and resident DJ at their sister festival in Croatia, Suncebeat, playing alongside Black Coffee, Louie Vega, Culoe De Song, Djeff Afrozila, Anane Vega and Jullian Gomes on the South Africa Sessions boat parties and Barbarellas open air club. He's also co-ran the afro-house club night Hoja at their infamous Sunday evening rooftop parties and 2016 saw Jonny launch his monthly 'Jonny Miller Presents...' parties in London, curating specially themed musical events and playing six hour DJ sets.

This mix is an intelligent, beautifully light and tastefully selected collection of future jazz and soul that's guaranteed to get your day off to a great start.

Website

Deep Inspiration Show 384 "Jazzman @ Coquette Vinyl Sessions, Kitcheners, JHB, South Africa"

Future jazz, trip hop, jazz, downtempo and soul from LTJ Bukem's excellent 'Cookin Records'. Taken from the first 12 ep's I fanatically collected from my first days of buying vinyl circa 2003. Including tracks from White Rhino, Cedar, Solaris, Nookie and many more.

Cookin Mix - Jazz, Trip Hop & Downtempo (March 2010)

My first ever mix! Done circa 2004 at the time we were putting on parties down The Bonded Warehouse (Sunderland Uni's riverside bar). It represents many of my first vinyl purchases. Some heavy coverage from early Groove Armada, alot of left field hip hop, beats and downtempo stuff. Plus some of the Late Night Tales / Another Late Night EP's which were released around the same time. It's even got some half decent and well timed attempts of scratching! (I say half decent for a beginner anyway). A true blast from the past indeed! 

Change Audio: Future Lounge & Trip Hop (2004)

A mixture of slow and summery downtempo tunes going through chill out, house, hip hop, soul and dubby electronica.. Recorded circa 2009 in Sunderland, England, UK. Listen to it day or night, and enjoy.

1. Like Minded Soul feat Cara - Seventythree
2. Dimension 6 - Living in the Sunshine - Ame Dub

Fleetwood Mac-You Make Loving Fun (Trailmix)

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
