There were bits of it I wasn’t happy with, mainly the ending. So I’ve redone it as Fusion Minimix 2. It will sound almost identical to the untrained ear, but rest assured I’ve cheesed up the ending (bit of MC Hammer & Van Halen ;) ) I’m off to get my train in about 30mins and I’m quite excited and apprehensive. I mainly apprehensive that I’ve forgotten some really important paper work or I won’t be able to lug my two suitcases across London (they’re mega heavy!!!) I expect when I meet Will, we’ll give up on the cases and go for a drink instead (I get free drinks in First Class :D )
Anyway, I’m not sure how much I’ll be able to blog, what with being net-less. I will do my best though. However, mix of the month will be on hold for a while I’m afraid. So you’ll just have to listen to this 5 minute treat for the next few months!

Basically the rules are you have to create a mix that lasts no longer than 5 minutes. The mix can contain absolutely anything even “5 minutes of Prince” as she said the other week. So I thought I’d have a bash. No no, not 5 minutes of Prince, just a random 5 minute mini mix. Here’s my effort! 12 tracks ranging from 80′s cheese, electro, funk and pop.
Listen Here (wma 2Mb)
PS: I broke the rules slightly, it’s 5mins 17seconds, tut tut

My styles have been in a constant state of flux; I think you can plot my musical journey briefly via the following DJ’s and artists:
  1. Jamiroquai (Mid 90′s)
  2. Paul Oakenfold (late 90′s)
  3. Hybrid (2000-present)
  4. Plump DJs (2001-present)
  5. DJ Yoda (2003-present)
  6. Mr Scruff (2002-present)
  7. 2ManyDJs (2004-present)
I doubt that reflects my musical style very well because… well I don’t really have one! Perhaps you could say I just like music and if two tracks sound good together then I say “why not put them together!” (even if it’s 80′s cheese next to techno).
Nowadays I do the odd live gig. I mostly do mp3 sets because they allow for so much more freedom and creativity than vinyl, but I still love my vinyl though!

List of Mixes

May Day Electro – April Mix of the Month

This is one of the April Mix of the Month for 2006. It reflects what I’d been listening to a lot over the previous few months… Electro! It covers a wide range of electro styles. The bland bare melodic stuff, the funk-tinged stuff, the acid-tinged stuff, and the breakbeat side of electro. The last 10 minutes or so of the mix is one of my mini-mixes I’d been working on since Christmas 2005. I’d began experimenting more & more with Mixmeister; looping samples, overlaying 3 or 4 tracks at once and messing around with keys of the songs. I was trying to create stuff that when played out people would recognise parts of the separate tracks, but not put together with other recognisable tracks. For example we have Breathe by the Prodigy, with the 7 Nation Army bass line and a classic house vocal sample all at the same time. I know when I hear tracks i know in a club, I get excited, so I guess I’m doing what I think others may like.
  1. Disco 128 – Chritopher & Raphael Just
  2. Lately (Ges-E and Visionary Underground Mix) – Nitin Sawhney
  3. Rackrash (Bahamut Remix) – Bahamu

  6. Talks – Zombie Nation
  7. Happy Happy – Thomas Anderson
  8. Washing Up (Tiga’s Na Na Na Na Na Remix) – Thomas Anderson
  9. Walking Away (Tocadisco Remix) – The Egg
  10. Sugar Lips – Coburn vs. Dumb Blonde
  11. Do Not Break – Ellen Allein & Apparat
  12. What 2 Need 2 (Trentemoeller Remix) – Sharon Phillips
  13. I Feel Loved (Danny Tenaglia Labour Of Love Remix) – Depeche Mode
  14. Breathe (Like An Aphex Twin) – The Prodigy
  15. Seven Nation Army (Adam Freeland Remix) – White Stripes
  16. My House – Phil Keiran
  17. You Gonna Want Me – Tiga

Challenge Complete

This was my first mix of 2006. It’s a mixture of hip hop, jazz, funk, drum & bass, electro. It’s kinda Scruff like i suppose. I tried re-editting certain songs so they’re not the original, like the DJ Shadow has samples from Drop It Like It’s Hot & Destiny’s Child in, and the Mr Scruff’s Bonce is bootleged with DJ Vadim.
  1. Beginning – Nostalgia 77
  2. What Does Your Soul Look Like [Peshay Remix] – DJ Shadow
  3. Proper Hoodidge – Amon Tobin
  4. Hardcore [Instrumental] Hip-Hop – DJ Shadow

  16. Lost in the K-Hole – The Chemical Brothers
  17. Krack – Soulwax
  18. Grind – Si Begg

How Am I Supposed To Know? (Unfinished)

Well heres a new mix I did in about 3 hours, just mucking around. It still needs some work, expecially the beastie boys bit. It’s not the most amazing thing Ive done, but it’s got lots of random stuff in it. I kinda started off wanting to do something floaty and light with Hybrid and Ils, but that went out of the window as I started to bring in other things. It’s a random mixture of electro, 80′s cheese, bit of brazillian/french jazz, rock. There’s a bit of Amon Tobin and Aphex Twin thrown in for good luck! (PS: The last track is awesome, thank Derek for discovering that gem!)
  1. Freeland – We Want Your Soul
  2. Duran Duran – Girls On Film
  3. h.a.b. – Feel For You
  4. Azzido Da Bass – Dooms Night (Timo Maas Remix)

  15. Fingathing – Synergy
  16. UNKLE – Nursery Thyme
  17. Rachid Taha – Rock El Casbah

Tearfund Fair Trade Fashion Show

This is the music that me and Derek produced for the Tearfund fashion show. We were originally going to use loads of world music because we thought thats what the clothes were gonna be like. However, when we found out they were jus like normal western clothes, we changed it to western music too. We tried to avoid using well known cliched songs, but that went out of the window a few times. The intro was a brilliant idea by Derek to represent the fact that these clothes are from all over the world.

The Mul Mix

This was the birthday mix I made for my dear buddy Rick (aka Mul – hence the title). I know Rick’s musical tastes very well, it’s something that we have in common. I aimed to try and cram as much cool hip hop and other stuff in to the mix and add in a few special bootleg bits of my own. The only problem with it (as my flat mate pointed out) is that the Who isn’t on for long enough. If I’m honest I think this is my favourite mix ever. It’s just so damn funky!

21st Birthday Set Part 1

This is the first half of the run through of the set I did at my 21st Birthday party. It’s full of bootlegs and I aimed to try and create a set which had a bit something for everyone. I actually got slated for trying to cater for too many tastes, but I think it is an cool set! The highlight of the night was the S-Club 7 into KRS One. some people stopped and tutted when I put on S-Club, others jumped for joy. Then, when it slipped into KRS One, the attitudes changed! Those that were tutting, put on a huge grin and those that were whooping just looked puzzled! *sigh* Made me laugh.

Party Time Volume 2 – The Dance Party

This is the second party time mix, this time with a dance competition voice over. I used more of a mixture of styles, taking elements of mixes from my very first mp3 mix (I lost that mix unfortunately – but I used Destiny’s Child with Jimi Hendrix and Chemical Brothers with Nirvana). Infact, I recently modified the destinys child over Tomoyasu Hotei (the Kill Bill theme) with an acapella I managed to get from a random French bloke so there isn’t a clash of tunes. Overall, it’s a wicked mix (if i do say so myself).

Party Time Volume 1 – Musical Statues

I thought I’d try my own style/homage/version (without the amazing scratching)! Throughout the mix there is a musical statues game going on (hence the title).
