Out now, "Old Skin".  The latest album by electronic music pioneer, Morgan King.

Morgan, although born in London started his career in Manchester as a drummer. Illustration, his first band appeared on the Some Bizarre Album with the song he co-wrote "Tidal Flow".  This compilation was to also feature the first recordings by the likes of, Depeche Mode, Soft Cell, Blancmange and The The. At this period he worked with producers such as Martin Hannett in Strawberry Studios, Stockport and Mike Hedges at his Playground Studios in Camden Town.

After a few years honing his musical skills Morgan moved to Chicago in the late 80s, where he got together with Marshall Jefferson, the godfather of house and house diva Kym Mazelle for the writing of her first album.
 
Back in Europe a year later he joined Manic MC's and co wrote "Mental" a UK club smash and remixed Gwen Guthrie's "Ain't Nothin' Going On But The Rent"! Then in 1990, Morgan teamed up with the classic Swedish house label Btech for a number of underground projects such as Technoir, Control E and Al-Hambra, whose releases are collectors items today.

In 1990, Jan Ekholm asked him to join Clubland along with vocalist Zemya Hamilton. Their debut singe "Let's Get Busy" (remixed by Snap) became a worldwide hit, including No 1 in the Billboard Club Chart.
 
The success was followed up by the hits "Hold On", "Love Strain", "Set Me Free" and "Hypnotized" who all got to the same number one position in the US and established Clubland all over the world. The band worked with many of the top producers at the time including David Morales, Steve "Silk" Hurley, E-Smoove, Eric Kupper, StoneBridge and George Morel.

In between Clubland, Morgan found the time to release his first solo effort; the timeless club classic "I'm Free", hammered by every DJ around the globe, and also the classic "Take Me Up" by Soundsource - an end of the night anthem played by the likes of Andrew Weatherall and sampled by an endless number of acts throughout the years, including Lock 'n' Load for thier top 10 hit "Blow ya Mind".
 
Morgan also wrote and produced two tracks on the first volume of the successful Cafe Del Mar compilation series "Agua" and "On the Rocks, plus picked up a Grammy Award for "Best Dance Act".

Of late Morgan has been writing and producing music which has featured on BBC, ITV, Films and most cabel networks, with plans in the process to return to his roots as a singer/songwriter!

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.
