RJA12 : Simon Busby

Next up in the series is London-based disc(o) jockey Simon Busby, who turns in a dope mix of pitch-down bangers for your listening pleasure.

Originally crafting instrumental hip-hop mixtapes before discovering the Electric Chair whilst living in Manchester, Simon hit London in 2005 with his much loved Short Circuit night, before creating his new Glitterball events which fill interesting spaces in the big smoke with and friendly crowd and a cool mixture of disco and house. Sounds right up our street! The mix itself has plenty of high points including Mark 7, Pete Herbert, Mark E and more, so tuck in.

Sorry - no tracklist

MCDE

About all that remains of my memory after Saturday night's shenanigans playing with MCDE @ Tronicsole. Anyone care to do the honours on the track title? Think this was about 2:30am, although I was very, very drunken by this point.

I am NEVER drinking again!

Feel Up Mix

A little mix I put together for the Feel Up girls ...

Weekend (again)

Tomorrow night at the Admiral in Glasgow, it's Motor City Drum Ensemble till 4am (plus me warming up till 1ish). Well up for this!

Any London mutha-fuggas can catch the Revenge at Plastic People tonight alongside Todd Terje et al, and finally Manchesterites are in for a treat on Sunday as G will be doing a hush hush bar gig somewhere in the city centre.

Have a good'un whatever you're all up to ;)

Warmageddon Mix

Flying High

When I was Djing a couple of weeks ago and dropped the Linkwood & House of Traps jam "Barely Eagle" a guy came up to me raving about the video for the original Dennis Parker track thats heavily sampled in it. Just checked it there and it is indeed ace. That silver jumpsuit is going on santa's list. And the 'tache ;)

Dennis had it all - a day job as a porn actor with a sideline in making disco. Something we can all aspire to! Apart from the contracting aids and committing suicide bit obviously...

That Time Of Year...

...and so it's time to look out the only christmas record required - a Knight Rider christmas! Its a totally fake rip off song not featuring any vocals from the Hoff or anyone, but that makes it better (I think!).

Never managed to find a decent quality version but head on over to the David Hasslehoff archives (!) here and grab a copy ;)

RJA11 : Deep Space Orchestra

We're coming thick & fast now for the rest of the year with a plethora of new mixes to get out before the xmas slow-down. Next up is a cracking mix from our Deep Space Orchestra chums from down south.

Deep Space Orchestra are Chris Barker (Jigsaw/TrebleO) & Si Murray (Cronk Family Enterprises/Jazzchops), two music afficionados hailing from the Liverpool area. With one joint release already out on our Five20East imprint you can expect to hear plenty more from these two in the oh-ten with forthcoming works on Drumpoet and a couple of others which have escaped my mind at present The mix itself is a tip-top blend of deep dancefloor workouts ranging from exclusive digital dubplates courtesy of the boys themselves through to classic chicago and detroit jams.

PS as if having OOFT DJing in Glasgow this Friday wasn't enough, the DSO boys are gracing the city with a debut performance for the Cosmic Microwave night at new venue La Cheetah too, so you're really spoilt for choice ;)
