First show of my new residency for RIPE - 100% Garage!

ALLTRAX GARAGE SALE - RIPE RADIO April '21

The Edgy Future Discotheque is back open for business and its packing in a rag tag bunch of low slung mutant disco delights for all times of the night on the dance floor. 

Warped & wonky house grooves alongside delicious slabs of techno and 1 or 2 straight up peak time yessmates make up this 3rd collection and features members of the Sprechen extended family in the guise of Bill Brewster & Andy Buchan. We welcome to the fold (finally!) Manchester mega human Black Eyes as well as rising stars Tom2Trax & Yootis plus we have something pretty amazing from the new mysterious new kid (or should that be kids?) on the block, the Yum Yum Club who team with Maria Uzor of Sink Ya Teeth for some pretty amazing scenes.

Strap yourself in...its gonna get sludgy!

Edgy Future Discotheque Vol.3

Grafter

4. Tom2Trax - Grafter

100% vinyl mix using records I picked up at the almighty A1 Records in the East Village of Manhattan. 

This trip left me re-inspired by US dance music, and the selection stocked in A1. 
The first mix in the series is a neat 42 mins, and focuses on the electro-funk and boogie sounds of (mostly) NYC '82 - '85.

Opened with a Manchester track from that era, as it was playing as I entered the shop, which was a moment!

Shout out to the wicked staff at A1, can't wait to be back.

East Village Funk Mix

On a US house tip after digging in NYC - enjoy!

The Tom2Trax Show - Reform Radio - 10.11.22

No guest list blaggers, no bullshitters, just heavy hitters as we return to the realms of the Edgy Future Discotheque where vibes are a plenty and there's not a phone on the dance floor in sight! 7 slick as heck cuts from some of our nearest & dearest music making friends make up our 5th entry to the series and its grade A yessmate action right from the off.go for a disco belly toilet visit, strap yourself in & prepare for blast off!

Andy Buchan leads the party with an original production that more than doffs its cap to the cosmic sounds of Norway. Body Heat will indeed make you sweat buckets with its massive piano stabs & spaced out synth swirls. Peak time water swigging & roof raising.

Our fave washed up super here Flash Atkins goes horizontal on Mistpoffer and ramps up the mushroom brew intake through its psychedelic haze of afro style percussion, soaring pads and (for added Balearic-ness) some serious late 80's white isle sax.yep we're being serious and its mega! Daco turns in a full on Italo style makeover version, which slaps a bit harder then the OG and sounds like Moroder smoked a warp 10 strength doobie.fab!

Ed Mahon returns with Seismic Guitar, a broken beat chuggernaught heavy hitter that somehow connects the dots between early doors at ALFOS with the Wild Style OST and features a sound from a certain bounty hunter's mode of transport. Break out the lino, dust off the shell toes, pop another half..rave on!

Tom2Trax goes straight for the 'heads down, sweaty mess at 1am in Eastern Bloc' switch on Heatwave Horizon. A thumping house with a tech edged (though not tech house) that whallops it out of the park and comes back for 2nds.

Big time uplifting pumping action from Jimmy Turnbull on Still I Rise, a gospel-esque pumper with top level sass & swag sitting along snare rolls aplenty and a deep as heck drop for peak time action.BIG.

Local cut up king Mangetout gets out his musical scissors on Body Vibrations and goes up to 11 on the disco-o-meter to create an absolute hip wiggler of epic sizes! Big time funk bomber.we dare you not to dance!

Black Hawks Of Panama: "The best compilation of 2023 without doubt! For me the best in the series"

Le Visiteur: "Couple of wicked tracks on here, Really digging Andy and Mangetout's offerings"

Warehouse Preservation Society: "Something for everyone on here. Digging the steady warm arp of Mistpoffer most"

Marco Giannini/Sticky Heat: "Really love both Flash Atkins tracks. Will be playing both all summer long for sure"

Jaegerossa: "Andy stealing this! Love it, full support!"

Chris Todd/Crazy P: "Liking the balearic, saxy meanderings of Flash's Mistpoffer very much"

Rayko: "Great selection of gems again guys. Well done!!!"

4. Tom2Trax - Heatwave Horizon (Lunar Mix)

Soho Radio - Guest Mix for Massey's Thief of Time

ALLTRAX Tapes is a vinyl-only mix series of raw wax tough trax.

Don't come here for polished DJ charts, or for shiny cuts, this is 2 turntables and 2 records colliding. One take. Back 2 basics. Not for straight shooters. 

Kicking off with some house, breaks, analogue drum toughness. New records I've been buying with a few underground anti-classics.
