Shabadowah (Joey Negro Extended Mix)

Timeless Place (Outtatime remix) AIFF

These tracks are an excerpt from a larger idea of scoring a sci-fi exploration of space and new planets. At the time I wrote these I'd refurbished a bunch of synths from the 90s, a Roland Juno 106, an alpha Juno, and an XP-30 (Roland fan-girl much?)

When I wrote them I wanted to bring back the expansive sound of music from the 80s.

Listening to these now, they remind me of some of the newer soundtracks like Stranger Things and Russian Doll—only I wrote these about 10 years ago.

From time to time something pleasant lands in our inbox, something out of the ordinary.

They often say that the best disc jockeys and record collectors are not the ones who play out every week, tour the world or who are spoken of the most. Rob Warner sent us a mix all the way from New Zealand and by George were we surprised with the result. House music can become a little stale, a hell of a lot of people play house records, a hell of a lot of people have also heard a hell of a lot of people play house records, and so on. Hence when someone steps up and absolutely knocks it out of the park it is right to recognise their accomplishment. Introducing Rob Warner, a disc jockey you might just love...

Rob Salmon, Box vol 1 mixtape - side A

After learning of the death of phenomenal UK producer and DJ Phil Asher (aka Phlash, aka Restless Soul) we dug through our archives to find this mix, sent to us probably on a CDR back in 2008. We published it along with our first feature interview with Phil Asher in September 2008. Here we remember Phil Asher doing what he did best: DJing. 

#RIP Phil and healing to all his family, friends and everyone he touched with his music.
