Ear & Drum: Session 293 – Dusting Off

Leave a comment

I recently did an all Calibre remix set and was alerted by Silent Dust of None60 Records fame, that I had missed not one, but two Calibre remixes of his tunes on the label. Now I knew None60 because of their excellent Government Fun – Hours EP and a few of their other releases, but I really didn’t know much about Silent Dust. So down the rabbit hole I went…

It turns out Silent Dust & DRS – Refuse (Calibre Remix) is one of THE Calibre remixes I’ve been hunting for the longest time. And it also turns out that Silent Dust is also an incredible D&B (and Hip Hop) producer with a style very much in my wheelhouse. So two album purchases and a great deal of listening later, I have produced this all Silent Dust mix to a) make up for missing out on these in my former mix and b) because you really need to hear some of these tune!

Andy, this one is for you.

DOA Infinitely Slow Mix 2021

Leave a comment

8DJs, 80+ tunes and nearly 4hrs of tunes.

This is the slower 140BPM version of the DOA Infinite series that sees a bunch of talented DJs taking turns in going back-to-back across the internet and the globe.

To say this is a bunch of eclectic tunes is doing this mix a major disservice, and if you’re looking for something that is going to introduce to some new music and artists then this is exactly where you want to start!

The Down Low: Session 042

3 Comments

Back on the Down Low with a mix dedicated to one of electronic music’s best kept secrets Synkro. This man’s ability to lock in a groove and still keep a laid back vibe is second to none and I heartily suggest you track down some of his amazing music.

This mix is definitely for laying back and chillaxing to, so perfect for the weekend and after hours cru. I love all the stuff in here, but if I had to call out some tracks Synkro’s – Look at Yourself is a slice of house perfection, Future Sounds of London’s – Cascade remixed by Odyssia treats a classic with the respect it deserves and Photo’s – Totem is a dance floor monster while still staying relaxed in vibe. A very neat trick.

I hope you get as much out of listening to this one as I did mixing it. It is possibly my favourite Down Low Session so far so kick back and enjoy the ride.

Tender – Ear & Drum Session 147

Leave a comment

Bringing you a bit if a mixed bag this time around. A lot of the tunes here are from the exceptional New Blood 018 compilation from Medschool. For those that don’t know, New Blood is an annual release of fresh talent and unheard of producers and this years release was the best in a looong time so I had to throw down a mix to celebrate.

We have some Trap stye D&B on Tender Love by the oddly named A. Fruit, UK Grime inspired Who Run Tingz by Trigga & Chimpo and whole host of deeper beats from the likes of Amoss, Martsman and Dom & Roland.

Tender – 1hr of Fresh Beats

A. Fruit – Tender Love
SQUASH! – One!

The Down Low: Session 036

Leave a comment

I did this mix back in 2009 as a Christmas gift to all my friends in the UK and had completely forgotten about it until I stumbled over it last week. The idea was to mash up old and new tracks that shouldn’t go together.

Hence you have little pearls such as Missy Elliot – Best Best (Two Fingers Remix) and
2 Bad Mice – Drum Trip II or Santogold – Unstoppable into the rave classic Skanna – Heaven. In fact rave features pretty heavily at the front end of this mix with some absolute classics and lesser known tracks from back in the day. Who remembers The Prodigy – Claustrophobic Sting? No one that’s who, but just like every track on here it is a belter.

So enjoy a stroll through my eclectic memory lane and have a good weekend.

The Down Low 036 – 1hr Mash Up of Old and New School

Bass Boy & Techmaster P.E.B. – Activated

Chilled out bass, techno and house are the order of the day with this downtempo mix.

A few personal highlights – Rainforest’s sublime Between Us, Lane 8’s The Great Divide with Are Scott on sultry vocals and the throw your hands in the air fun of Purple Disco Machine’s Where We Belong. But if I had to be honest, every tune is in here on their own merits and they are all great. 🙂

Download, lie down and unwind. Rewind.
