16:02 - Mix Month : Archive mix from Morden Wharf Terrace Jan 13, 2023

Show notes

Second week of Mix Month and this is an archive mix from September last year. Dom from the Stanton Warriors invited me to play at the summer last terrace party at Morden Wharf.

This gig meant a lot to me as not only was I on a line up of awesome DJs playing the music I love, but my wife and daughter came down too. This would have been the first time Evie has seen me play and my wife almost never comes to my gigs.

Anyway, I hope you enjoy this mix (again).

Until next time...

15:19 - Best of 2022 Dec 29, 2022

Show notes

2022 has been another huge year for bass music, breaks is making a resurgence (although are we allowed to call it breaks), drum & bass keeps pushing the boundaries of what is dnb and what is hardcore (looking at you Dimension), and those hoover and foghorn noises are transitioning into other genres.

Yup 2022 has been a vintage. Bring on 2023!

Only about 6 weeks late... Sorry for the delay on getting this one out, between starting a new day job, getting the child plague and not being able to get to my studio (aka car) to record the vocal, this has been delayed and delayed...

So you get a live mix without me chatting over it...

Recorded live from Fire & Lightbox in London at Big Fish Little Fish's Halloween Spooktakular, this is me in the mix all breakbeat, enjoy!

Show notes

It's been a mad week of late sessions at the day job and writing endless documents, as I leaving where I have been since the start of the pandemic to work for a company much closer to home!!!

Which meant... I recorded this podcast in my car! at 10:30 at night, as to not wake the wife and baby.

Anyway, this podcast we have Arkley in the guest mix, a huge nostalgia rave trip with a modern day twist. Big ups Arkley for this one. For more on him, check out @ArkleyMusic on Instagram.

Tracklist incoming!!!

Show notes

Between the last episode and this one, life has been a weird one…

Off the back of the highs of the Morden Wharf Terrace set, by the end of the following week I had a mental crash, nothing quite like I had experienced before. I had / have Post Natal Depression and thought it had passed, but the weirdest things trigger it, and in this instance it was a song.

The latest track by Cookie Monsta, Flux Pavilion and Koven. It’s an incredible track, stunning production, haunting lyrics and even has an epic guitar riff, but yet the story behind it sent me into a spiral which I am only just recovering from. If you want to know more about the track, here is an article from UKF which is worth a read.

15:15 - Live from Morden Wharf Terrace Oct 03, 2022

Show notes

I had the privilege of warming up for the Stanton Warriors a couple of weeks ago. It was the last party of the summer at Morden Wharf Terrace, on a Sunday which meant just good daytime vibes. Recorded live from the terrace this is my warm up set, which I would say has good waves vibes, nothing too pumping but just head nodding, foot tapping vibes.

Shouts to Dom for asking me to do the warm up, also to Mini Da Minx and Mafia Kiss for being awesome too!!

15:14 - Brothers Of Funk, Nero, Deadmau5, OnDaMike, Emalkay, Left/Right, DJ Marky, Dr Meaker, Document One and loads more... Sep 08, 2022

Show notes

Originally this was going to be an hour of drum & bass in the mix, but then my daughter refused to go to bed, so you have a presented show of new music and what a selection we have.

If you are a long time listener, then you will know my love for Nero, and they have a new remix out of Deadmau5 which is huge!!!! Plus new music from Left/Right, OnDaMike, Document One and loads more.

Show us some love on Patreon. Subscribers get clean version of the mix (without Mike talking over it), the Patreon exclusive show "The Vinyl Sessions", plus access to the archive dropbox.

Show notes

Finally!!! After my daughter took over my studio (did she really need her own bedroom), I set up a little corner of the living room to have my Pioneer controller hooked up and ready to play. It was great to have a little mess around and I recorded a bit of a breaks mix.
These are tracks which I have downloaded recently and there does appear to have a lot of OnDaMike in there.
Also the first track is a little exclusive which someone made for me...
Anyway, enjoy.
