Before I Leave…

I just wanted to update the Mini Mix I did the other day. 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!

A New Mini Mix!

I got a bit bored this afternoon. Having packed for Mallorca & done all my necessary tasks, I thought I’d give the new version of Mixmeister a proper trial. It’s bloody awesome!!! The new layout and design make it so muh easier to create really impressive mixes. So, I though the best way would be to cram as many tunes into a 5 minute mini mix, ala Annie Mac style. So here it is:
The Mixmeister Fusion Trial Minimix (2Mb wma 5mins) (Apologies for the woman speaking at the end, I haven’t purchased the full version yet)

Mix Of The Month: April

Finally got round to doing a mix!!! Though I’m still in the process of tidying it up a bit at the moment, so chances are it’ll be done and posted in about an hour. This month’s mix reflects what I’ve been listening to a lot of recently… Electro!!!

Timmy Tekno Funk has been getting me into electro more & more. I have in the past dipped my toes in its murky water, especially with Soulwax, 2manydjs, Erol Alkan and the odd bit of Jacques Le Cont, but I’ve now fully immersed myself in its delights! This mix is filled with random nuggets I’ve found whilst scouring the internet avoiding work. I won’t be surprised if not many people like it, but I like to vary what I play, so here’s another aspect to my music tastes. I would love to point people towards the end of th mix (52mins 42secs) where I’ve included a special mini-mix I’ve been working on including Prodigy, Aphex Twin, Depeche Mode, Underworld, Daft Punk, Chemical Brothers & Primal Scream – all of which I’ve loving crafted together into a 15minute overlayed mess of melody!

*sniff* Sankey’s is closing!

Sankeys LogoI just randomly found this article about Sankeys Soap shutting down!! Sankeys, for those that don’t know, is Manchester’s main club for big name DJs & has some of the best nights on there, Bugged Out, Tribal Sessions & Redlight. It’s named after the old Soap factory which the club is in. I’ve had so many great times there. However, all is not lost. Turns out the owner is gonna redecorate the place and even put in a garden out back! Phewww! I do remember some great nights there tho (insert Wayne’s World sound effect here)

  • My first time in there with Mul has to be the greatest still… DJ Dexter from the Avalanches!! If there’s one 5 DJs you have to see (hmm… good idea for a list!) DJ Dexter is in the top 3! If you like fun, wacky, random music then you’ll love Dexter! He plays everything from Hip Hop, Jazz, 80s electro, Rock (as in real rock – Queens of the Stone Age! They rock! hehe, see what i did there!?!), soul, the list goes on! And he has HUGE afro which just bounces around as he DJs! It’s quite mesmerising. Infact, I may try dig out a mix of his and put it up. Anyway… yeah… that was a great night. And to think we nearly stayed with Colin in Teasers!!
  • The first time seeing the Plump DJs with Timmy Tekno Funk. Those guys were awesome! Bleeps & Squeeks – Coolio
  • The time we saw the Chemical Brothers DJing there on a sold out night – it was far too busy. They far too crap (as DJs – they’re an awesome live band/group). But I’ll never forget knocking a plate full of curried chips over Dawn & then Tim throwing a piece of pizza at me which cut my forehead and drew blood!!! Now that is some dodgy pizza!
  • The random time last year I decided to go to the Boom night there on my own. Yes, I am officially a loner! Needless to say, I had a rocking time! Chatted with a few randomers, heard some of the funkiest bootlegs ever and had a laugh at the fact that downstairs was absolutely empty!!! The night was put on by XFM and they had all their DJs downstairs. Boom were hosting the upstairs room and managed to completely fill that one out!! Dan, who runs the Boom website & nights, offered to let the XFM DJs play upstairs cos there was little point them doing anything downstairs! Hahaha
  • *sigh* I could go on forever! The time we saw UNKLE, Adam Freeland, the 2nd time we saw Dexter (we returned with Tim & J-Shad – an old friend of ours who, when she wore her DJ Shadow TShirt, we could only read the words J Shad – I’ll let you figure out why ;) ), the numerous times we went to see Krafty Kuts (no wonder he’s been nominated greatest breaks DJ for the past two years)… and I’ll stop there

I’m feeling quite emotional now… Me and Sankeys have quite a relationship! Actually, I’ll do the man thing & dump he for the better looking model when it’s built :D
