DJ Mixes

Produced under the moniker I use for more leftfield and downtempo type production, this is an intensely personal album that was finished in December 2008. I finally mastered it. None of it has been released except for the Bonus Track which was release in December of 2008 on NLMX. It had been a long while since I listened to this before I started the mastering process. I was glad to find, that at least to me, this music is timeless.

SMR Previews

The deeper side of Dark Techno. A growling, roaring, relentless mix, equally at home in shadowy basements/warehouses and on long overnight drives. There are a few fresh cuts sprinkled in with 2 originals and several choice tracks selected from the vaults of the Dalton digital estate. There's a few cool Easter egg samples in here if you can spot them.

Dark Mix (Minimal Techno)

Preview snippets of the first release from Shadow Mined Recordings. Drops January 2022.

A Deeper Funk - Travis Christian - Release Preview

We are very excited to announce the first release of the second artist to join the Shadow Mined Recordings roster. Jason Haskins is a gifted musician whose work is a perfect fit for SMR's sound and aesthetic. Bordering on the experimental, Jason's lush, ethereal, psychedelic tracks carry a timeless quality that speaks directly from the collective unconscious. With engineering/mastering support from Travis Christian, Jason's tracks become candy for your ears and nourishment for your mind.

You can pre-order Jason's first release, Underfound, on Beatport now and keep an eye out for his second release AI Lullaby coming in right behind it. Both tracks drop this Friday!

Purchase at Bandcamp

Underfound - Jason Haskins - Preview

Jason's second release in his double drop intro to the world on SMR is a tour deforce, mid-tempo bass/breaks track complete with gritty drum fills, melodic pluck and an absolutely wig blowing bassline. Watch out for that drop. It's a doozy!

AI Lullaby - Jason Haskins - Preview

Gorgeous Afro House track. Hand drums, foley percussion and a stompy bassline accompanied by call and response male and female tribal choruses and a warm, lush synth.

A Joyful Noise (Nu Gospel & Gospel House Practice Set)

Closing Set for Re:Think Techno's amazing annual festival Pangea. Someone left a mic on during my set. Every once in a while you can hear the crowd whooping or whistling and conversation from behind the decks. It's a nice touch. Kind of a happy accident.

This set starts out with a handful of Tech house bangers. Then moves into some South American minimal and finishes with several released and unreleased originals and remixes. 

Thanks to everyone who dance so hard all the way to the end. Y'all are some real ones.

about 1 hour of a 3 hour set played at Camp Cool AF Friday Night at Love Burn. This one brought a lot of folk into camp. Unfortunately the entire set didn't get recorded because the recording kept stopping and restarting but this continuous section managed to get saved for posterity

Caught Up (lounge/nu soul)

Opening set Friday night Movement Weekend for Sex Positions Vol. 3 at the Golden Rule

Travis Christian - Sex Positions Vol 3. at The Golden Rule Detroit

The original mix of this set unfortunately did not get recorded at the festival, so I rerecorded it at home using the history from my USB. It's the same set but the equipment is a little different. Some of the fancy fx tricks I was able to do on the Pioneer v10 at the fest, I can't do on my set up at home. But, the ModelOne mixer I have at the house sounds incredible and the tracks stand up fine on their own :)

This is an intensely personal album that was finished in December 2008. I finally mastered it. None of it has been released except for the Bonus Track which was release in December of 2008 on NLMX. It had been a long while since I listened to this before I started the mastering process. I was glad to find, that at least to me, this music is timeless.
