EDDIE C - BEST FRIEND 013

I will always remember those moments at the Nomads festival when Red Greg would close down the Lumberjacks in Hell stage and time stood oddly still, the sunset behind the trees and a warm breeze driving through the crowd. After several hours of dancing, everybody on the dancefloor was familar with each other, the first five rows or so anyway. I remember Rahaan, Mendel, Dieuwer, Robbert, Sam and Bram of course, Kim, Chiara... and Ben! 
The thought ringing through my head, this is as good as it gets. No matter where else you chose to travel to, this is the perfect moment and nothing could make it better. 
All of these Nomads days and nights merge into each other, not least because we had Darren celebrate with us somewhere around 2-4 times. One year it was Sylvester's - Over & Over at ten to eleven, the second last song of the day, that captured on video, encapsuled every emotion that needed to be captured.
I am not able to recall all of the music from those sessions. I remember his legendary blends that have lead you into the next epic groover long before you even realized it's a new tune. Never missing a beat and forever leaving you with a smile and a "damn" on your lips. 
Where did that coming from and how much higher can we go?

Red Greg, take us back to those beautiful moments of freedom and joy.

Lumberjacks Tapes 013: Red Greg

Back with another one - And it's a very special one indeed. This mix comes from someone who has definitely dug deeper than most over the decades. Flawlessly selected, programmed, mixed and presented in the most dubbest of dub wise manners. 

Chris Galloway aka Woodenhorse Provocateur aka the man like Roots Unit has been into this record game for a minute. He's bent our minds with the freshest OG re-edits and productions as one quarter of the Soft Rocks massive, brought us some wonderful modern house, Balearic and downtempo music via his peerless Kinfolk & Vibrations labels and has undoubtedly relieved quite a few of you of some quids in his role as a respected record dealer over the years. 

All of the above activities, as well as a youth spent partying in the midst of the original acid house wave and beyond here in the UK means Chris has a truly open musical mind and some set of ears on him, and through this mix we get to enjoy the fruits of his impeccable taste and collection. 

This one's in a heavy dub mode - if you hadn't guessed already - and by that we mean all shades of dub, from the spatial to the sublime to the unreleased and exotic. It's all here. We've been jamming this one hard here at GGHQ last couple of months - it's nice to finally be able to share it with you all.

* FULL INTERVIEW: https://boltingbits.com/mixed-by-telfort/

If you're into house music, chances are you've come across the name of Telfort before. The Edinburgh-based artist has been releasing some of the underground's finest house cuts since emerging on the scene in 2014. His very first outings, a self-released trilogy of EPs stamped his mark loud and clear - quickly garnering him fans amongst music-lovers and DJs alike.Telfort also runs his own parties in his home town of Edinburgh, hosting the likes of Aziesch, Damiano von Erckert, and Cinthie. We love his work here at BB HQ, he does an excellent job at creating true house music which stands the test of time. Catch us in 15 years time...still listening to his tunes on repeat, feeling increasingly refreshed with each subsequent listen. Needless to say, we are very excited to have him on board our Mixed By series. Here's what he had to say.....

INTERVIEW.

Uzun Baba is a DJ, Selector, Organizer & Political Activist in Skopje / Mazedonia. You can hear, he really feels every record he plays from the view of  almost fanatic dedication, to the craft and the music that echo's the pure ethos of Underground Resistance.

Lumberjacks Tapes 016: Uzun Baba Vinyl Mix

Every now and then we have to look back to where it all began. Back to the sounds that paved the way for underground music and kickstarted genre evolution. Today those sounds are home to the legendary Daz-I-Kue, who has a wealth of musical achievement under his belt.
 
Pioneer of broken-beat movement with the ‘Bugz In The Attic’ crew, UK grime trailblazer with "Are You Really From The Ends?", label owner, releases with BBE, Nervous, Reel People, Papa Records. All these achievements have hard work and determination at the heart of them, and it runs through the foundations of each any everything Daz-I-Kue does. Still ringing true to this day, he presents his latest project on Foliage - ‘Tell The Story’, which features his signature broken sound, house, funk, boogie, and soul-tinged production.
 
If you don’t know, then get to know. Daz-I-Kue’s mix transcends conventional sub-genres and carves out an area between Soulful and Broken Beat impossible to pinpoint. Featuring Richard Earnshaw, Kai Alcé, Jimpster, Opolopo, Ezel, and more. This, you really don’t want to miss!

20+ countries, 80+ radio networks and 10 million+ weekly listeners can’t be wrong. Keep it Traxsource. Keep it underground.

So that was the final night at the Paradise Farage. Sadly the club has had to be closed down, demolished and the site turned into a giant lorry park as a result of Brexit. For our last show, we travelled to Ray Mang's studio and streamed live from deepest East London with Mr Mang himself, a Leftside Wobble guest mix and me. Enjoy and thanks so much for all the support I've received over the past 15 months, it's really appreciated. 

If you fancy coming to see myself and Raj play together in the actual flesh, we're playing at Alfresco festival in Kent on August bank holiday weekend. Ticket details here:

We’re overly happy to have legendary Jori Hulkkonen as the next guest of the mix-series. ✨@theofficialjorihulkkonen

”Suomen pohjoisimmassa merellisessä saaristossa, Kemijoen suistossa valoisan kesäyön hiljaisuudessa, lipuvan kanootin rauhan lailla nämä äänet liikkuvat tyynen sulavasti kohti saunan rantaa, ja vilvoittavan yöuinnin jälkeen, kas lasi tuota maittavaa punaista kultaa.” is how he describes the mix. 

The perfect wine for this mix is amazing Croci Valtolla.

💙Enjoy ❤️

EDDIE C - BEST FRIEND 015

The quartet from France are a steady fixture in the world of modern digging. Colin, Guillaume, Romain and Xavier originally met in Marseille but are now all based in Paris where they very successfully continue their hunt for the unknown (seldom above the 110 BPM mark). 

The now-Parisian taste-makers do not only have one of the most excellently curated Youtube Channels out there, they recently also proved that they are very capable Editors themselves on the most recent (and excellently curated) Orange Tree Edits (Vol. 8). 

For 5918mins., they provide nothing short of a masterclass of modern digging - which left us astonished and (dare we say it) even a bit envious given the sheer endless amount of unknown treasures comprised in this mix. So without further ado, let's dive right into 111 mins. of pure digging pleasure.

Maybe Tonight

Trushmix 178 is non the house again with CJ Cooper. UK DJ and selector put together another massive energy mix. Disco, house, balearic and a good chunk of raw 80's moods. Selection vise and mixing always on point.
And energy non stop from beginning till the end! Another smasher fro CJ Cooper! Perfect for the current summer mood!

Enjoy music from the top!

Born in Jakarta, in the 80’s @dea-barandana grew up with the sound of Indonesian city pop and new wave. Nowadays he lives in Bali, where he's a resident DJ at Potatohead Beach Club. We had a pleasure to have Dea here in 2019 for NYE playing at Bar da Praia. 

Described by Gilles Peterson as ‘The best DJ I’ve heard in 10 years’, Dea recorded a mixtape for us playing some rare world songs.

Enjoy :)

Here comes another episode of our “A Taste Of” series. This time we bring you Leeds' own @joemorris, one of the city's most prominent and respected figures, known for his peculiar style! He mixes deep and dreamy melodic tunes crafting emotive scenarios from dance-floor to chill out atmospheres. His mantra is crystallized also in his several, well received productions on labels like Pleasure Unit, Paper Recordings, Is it Balearic and Secret Life Music, as well in his search for the perfect beat through his Shades Of Sound record label, radio shows on Balamii Radio and militance on @clandestinomusic channel.

He has delivered for us a perfect summer soundtrack, blending various shades of disco music and uplifting deep house vibes,. Ah.... we miss the clubs.

Forget your worries and enjoy the ride!

For the next instalment of the series I present a winding, evocative mix from Avsluta. I first came across Avsluta's sound through her mix for Rapture Network's 9128.live takeover (https://soundcloud.com/rapturenetwork/avsluta-9128live-15-may-2021) and after listening to more of her mixes for her own ambient-based platform @introspective_electronics, I hit her up for a Deep Mind Music entry. 

Avlsuta's sound is highly immersive: her mix for the series takes listeners through winding cerebral sounds, each track building upon the last, slowly unfolding into a vast expanse of sound. To me it feels like floating in the middle of a still lake at night, looking up at the twinkling stars and crescent moon, adrift and contemplative. We are then washed up onto the shore with trippy bubbling beats, before the mix gently peters out in a blanket of golden warmth. I hope you enjoy listening to this trip as much as I do.

For the photo Avsluta has chosen one which she says brings some beautiful memories from years back in Mexico. Here are some words she has to accompany the mix:

Scattered memories of journeys
To places I have never been
Or those I call home
For a few days or for years
The rush of taking off and landing
Writing history together
With strangers
And lovers
Whispering secrets
To rivers 
And trees
...and listening
Always listening
And dreaming

New month new mix.
Ryan Bishop is behind one of the most creative and consistent multi-modal musical platforms out there. Dream Chimney (which hardly needs introducing), was certainly a big inspiration for 5918mins. and we are very happy to have him onboard. 

DJing himself under the name "The Beat Broker", Ryan developed a propensity towards Balearic sounds, which seemed to fit perfectly with the current time of the year. We are also very impressed by Ryan's consistency in digging and playing high-quality newer releases (which only makes sense if one one is interested in the musical, rather than the collectable worth of records). 
                             ----> to be enjoyed on a lush summer evening
