Happy Mondays people. If you're feeling like me you probably can't wait for the day to be over. Too much fun on a Saturday makes for one slow Monday.
Got you a mix today i put together at the end of last week under my more disco and boogie based moniker OK Jones for the London party crew Good Block. I will be joining the Good Block guys this Friday at the Social on Little Portland Street in central London for an evening of disco, boogie, funk, hip hop and house. I'm going to be bringing just the vinyl to this one as was the case with this mix. Tried to get in as many upbeat dance floor kickers as i could on this so please do have a listen and if you are in London on Friday drop in to the Social for what is looking to be a proper good fun night.
Party deets on the Facebook event pagehere and check the mix on the Mixcloud player below. O x
Starting up with this Afro disco selection from from Deptford night MogaDisco. Originally set up in Manchester and now based in South London's Deptford. MogaDisco brings a club night with a taste of Africa to the table.
This month see's the MogaDisco crew welcome Lagos hi-life legend Orlando Julius to the party. This being his second ever live show in the UK it is looking to be a very special night. Check out the event details here and on the flyer above.
The mix laid down by the MogaDisco residents a few months back features a packing of Nigerian recorded disco and funk jams. Definitely worth a playon the Mixcloud player below.
Rahaan - Live @ MyHouse Leiden 2 punt 3 (02-10-2013)
More fire from the Chicago boogie boss. Now i've posted a few mixes from Rahaan here recently but the man seems to churn out quality mixes like a machine.
Recently on tour this side of the pond we had the pleasure of having him along to Trouble Vision for what was one serious party. The energy and little known disco, boogie and house brilliance he brings to his sets is second to none. A true gentleman as well. Thought i'd post this latest one as it's another fine example of how a party should be preached too. Check it on the Soundcloud below.
Thought i'd pop this dreamy selection up for you as it's sorting out my afternoon perfectly.
The mix is spliced and lovingly laid down by Mr.Smith. I actually know very little about Mr.Smith and happened to stumble across this mix on a random blog. From what i can dig out he's from Sydney, Australia and residents for Ghetto Boogie. The mix caught my eye due to its serious track listing and the fact it is all mixed from original vinyl. A perfect party starting selection of classic boogie and dance floor funk. The mix is two years old so if anyone knows what Mr. Smith is up to these days let us know. Anyway. Get a listen for yourself and enjoy those weekends. O x
An absolutely superb mix for you today. Number 008 in the Trouble Vision podcast series sees Trouble Vision resident Park Ranger take the controls. The mix, over an hour and a half recorded live in Corsica studios brings everything i could ever want from a DJ set. House, boogie, funk, edits, old and new. All laid down in that oh so just right Park Ranger way.
Recorded back at the September Trouble Vision Park Ranger opened up for what was to be one of the greatest Trouble Vision parties ever for us guys. One of those nights where the crowd and the tunes worked more perfectly that ever. Lining up the one roomer session for guests Hunee and Damiano Von Erckert it was one hell of a night. Check the mix on the below player and head on over to the Trouble Vision event page here for details of November's party with John Talabot, Pional, Fort Romeau and more.
Alerted to this one by Dark Sky's sharp eared Dilla junkie Thomas Edwards. The mix is also available on a double vinyl (pretty damn cool for a mix) at the end of October features original records used by the legendary J Dilla for sampling and production and in the words of the press release is "a lovingly and expertly constructed journey through the building blocks of Dilla's beats". Could not have been put better. Mixed by Dilla's good friend and all round record playing G - HouseShoes this is one amazing splicing not to be missed out on.
Head on over to the Redefinition Records page here for details on the release and hit up the mix on the Soundcloud stream below.
Happy Thursday! Got another quality mix for you today from one of the god fathers of the DJ set, Bill Brewster.
Co writer of DJ bibles Last Night A DJ Saved My Life and How To DJ Properly (both books you should really consider reading before stepping behind a pair of turntables). Bill Brewster is a true purveyor of house music and dance music in general as well as being a true artist when it comes to the DJ set.
This mix was recorded at Maceos's crew bar behind the NYC Downlow stage at Glastonbury this year. Another example of Bill bringing a perfect set for the crowd he's been asked to entertain. Slowed up grooves from start to finish. Some you may know others will have you digging within seconds of them rolling in. Bill seems like a pretty nice guy too. Any track listing questions drop him a note in the comments section. This is just one of many quality sets uploaded to his Soundcloud so have a listen to this one and check out some of the others. You may learn something! O x
Hump day people. You're at the peak of that mid week mountain. It's an easy road from here to the weekend so hold in there. In today with this absolute belter of a mix from Faze Action. Brothers Robin Lee and Simon Lee are considered connoisseurs of the timeless dance sound. The electronic edged disco of their own productions rolls so smoothly alongside original disco and boogie releases and edits that their mixes are a constant on my pocket pod. This promo mix for September 2013 is just another great example of why these guys have been rocking the place since the release of their first album back in 1997.
Again, more self indulgence today as this is a favorite recent mix of mine. An absolute quality mix which will definitely pick up your energy levels.
I will also be joining Larj Hans alongside one half of Faze Action - Simon Lee, on the bill for the Brixton edition of English Disco Lovers taking place at the Prince of Wales, Brixton on the 29th November.
For those that haven't yet heard of English Disco Lovers. It was set up earlier this year as a subversive anti-racism group. Taking the initials of the not so desirable English Defense League its mission is to wipe the bigoted moron led version of the EDL off the face of the planet...Well Google search for now at least. English Disco Lovers are out to push equality, acceptance and Love. All profits from this event will be going to 17-24-30 No To Hate Crime Campaign as well as other local charities. Definitely looking to be a great party and it is for a great cause. I will be selecting a stack of extra special disco 12"s and edits for this one and Larj will be on hand with the 7" armory. Details of the event as well as super cheap early bird tickets can be found here. Check out Faze Action's September 2013 mix on the player below. O x
Two posts in one day usually means we've found something special. Nite-Flyte is a mix by Berlin's DJ Supermarket. Label boss, blogger and pretty on point DJ who (in his own words) loves to push "yacht rock disco". If you like it bouncy through out probably best you step back now.
I'm a huge fan of mixes that do something different and this one is definitely a swerve from the normal. The concept. A Road trip to 1978 L.A. Featuring late 70s soft rock and chilled out disco. Put together in a similar style to DJ Supermarket's previous compilation CDs the mix is made to sound like a radio show from the late 70s. Reckon this one will have a bit of a Marmite effect on people but it's definitely sorted my afternoon out. O x
Something seriously fresh and clean for you today in the form of Breakbot's Lazy Sunday selecta mix from back in 2012. Breakbot aka French DJ and Producer Thibaut Berland has been an underground force for cleaned up funk and slowed out house for a good few years now. We first became aware of his excellent work 6 or 7 years back when we had him guest at one of our earliest Superfilth parties.
A staple but more back seated member of the Ed Banger family since the early days he can be credited for keeping the label in touch with its cleaner less noisy sounding side. Not heard this mix until today but it's packed full of 70s and 80s originals and edits along side some newer work as well. There's even some Dilla in there for good measure. The makings of a quality mix in my eyes. Quick snippets with a huge track listing as well. A studio mix maybe but well worth a play. Get it on the player below. Shouts to soundsofthe70s.blogspot for the mix hosting as well. O x
A classic mix for you today from another one of my favorite all time DJs, Maurice Fulton. I Love the way Maurice plays. Unpredictable yet always fun. Mixing Disco classics, house, acid tinged treats and anything else worthy of a tasteful dance floor.
This ones been uploaded to Soundcloud by the guys at Vinyl Junkies Sweden. According to those guys this one was recorded back in 2008 it was originally uploaded by Future Boogie. Props to Vinyl Junkies for the re-upload. Get it on the player below. O x
Got a little something today to get your ears in the mood for this Friday's Trouble Vision 2nd installment of its 5th Birthday celebrations. Trouble Vision 5.2 will be taking place this Friday at Corsica Studios with one of my favorite line ups yet. Welcoming along Norwegian Space disco legend Prins Thomas, Bostons bringer of the funk DJ Kon and Chicago player and disco edit king DJ Rahaan. Also joining the 5.2 line up Outboxx, Auntie Flo as well Robin and myself. This one is looking to be very very special. Full event details can be found here
Thought we'd treat you all to some mixes from the 3 headliners today. Get you all warmed up and that.
DJ Kon - Kon on my way (promo mix)
This is a rather special mix from the Boston legend DJ Kon. Put together as a promo mix for his recent album drop "On My Way" it gives a hint towards Kon's eternal love of vinyl. Get a listen on the mix cloud player below.
DJ Rahaan - Trouble Vision podcast #007 This mix has been put together by Rahaan as part of the Trouble Vision podcast series in the run up to Friday's event (well worth checking the TV podcast series out if you haven't already). He is definitely one of my favorite DJs out there.
Hailing from Chicago with more than enough experience under his belt. Rahaan brings rare disco cuts, boogie, warm subtle house and R&B tones to the floor. He's also a king of the edit with some of the finest reworks out there on labels like Grimy and Lumberjacks in hell with two tracks featuring on last months Chicago service double EP. Get the mix on the player below. No track list for this one. And even if i did have it i wouldn't share it ;-).
Prins Thomas - RA #074
Ok, this is quite an old mix. First released as part of the Resident Adviser series back in October 2007. However. Being one of the most respected producers within the Nordic lead - out of our earth disco sound this is a mix that needs to be heard. He's obviously progressed even more since this mix was laid down. And you can trust me in saying he's now even better (if that is possible?).
His set at Unknown festival this year was a festival highlight for me and with fellow record men such as Midland listing him as their favorite DJ you know this guy is on to something. Get a listen to the mix on the below player and their a track listing over on the hosting site.
Thanks for reading and if you are in London town on Friday head down to Trouble Vision and say wussup! O x
Happy Monday. Feeling the burn a little this morning. Big shouts to Resident Cochons for having me down on Friday. Managed to pull off the 3 hours of vinyl only and had a lot of fun doing it. The tropical heat inside Canavans made for a bit of a challenge but it was definitely worth it. Loving that place more and more so make sure you go check it out if you get the opportunity.
Monday relief comes in the form of a new mix from one of our faves. Leisureware.
Leisureware - Merino Mix
Starting off fresh and clean this one hot off the press from Leisureware is the perfect way to ease your ears back in to Monday. By 55 minutes you'll be more than ready for the week ahead and possibly even egging on Friday again. Well that's the effect it's having on me as i write this. Get a listen on the player below and head over to the Fill Ya Boots event page here for details of Leisureware's next hosting session welcoming another favorite of ours along to the party. Park Ranger.
No track list for this one but isn't that part of the fun? Enjoy your weeks. O x
How do people? Got some Friday Mixtuals for you. Been a while.
But first some shameless self promo aimed at the South London crew. Really honored to be heading down to Canavans in Peckham tonight to join the Resident Cochons boys for a 3hour vinyl set. Billed half as an OK Jones set it's an excuse for me to pull out all those dusty disco discs I've accumulated over the years. No Larj Hans in the building tonight unfortunately but he will be there in spirit. Very excited for this one so if you are in the area please drop by. Pot noodles behind the bar, cheap drinks and pool if the dancing gets to much. Event details over here. Which leads me on to the first Friday mixtual as this one was actually recommended by those sharp eared fellas over at Resident Cochons just this morning.
Love Fever mix - A&A Loose & Wild at Smokey Tails. One of London's classiest parties, Love Fever is definitely worth checking out if you have not yet had the opportunity. This mix was laid down by Love Fever mastermind A&A at Hackney's Smokey Tails back in August. Slinked out house, 80s crunch and sexual discotheque (sorry, really can't help myself) through out.
It's right up my street and would most definitely compliment an evenings warm up or late night sleaze out. Get it on the player below and head over to the Love Fever site here for more info.
Casino Times - Secret Agency introducing mix. Big fans of the Casino Times chaps we are. As well as being exceedingly polite and handsome musical makers, they know a thing or two about putting a good mix together as well. Taking the controls in room 3 at last week's Tief 2nd birthday they laid down one of the boss'est sets we've seen this year. So we were obviously very happy to see this absolute treat of a mix put out by the Secret Agency last week.
Set as their "Introducing" mix. It takes you through everything that Casino are about and also includes a track from their upcoming Ep on Wolf Music. Make sure you get this one downloaded and on the pocket pod as soon as you can.
Enough of my ramblings. Get on a listen and have safe weekends. O x
Morning. Got this little breakfast treat for you to warm up those Wednesday ears. Popped this on the stereo when i sat at my desk this morning and it's definitely hit the spot. Mixed by Good Genes resident Ali it's been put together as a warm up for this Saturdays Good Genes party with Night Sweats taking place down at the Brixton Market House.
Always happy to know there's good parties taking place round our ends so make sure you drop in if you're around Brixton Town this Saturday. Get the mix on the player below and head on over to the Good Genes event page on jump here. Track Listing can be found on the Soundcloud page. O x
Tomorrow (Tuesday 24th) Me and the Robin will be heading down to the Puma Trinomic XT2 launch at a secret location in East London to play a 90s influenced set. For those lucky enough to have bagged tickets it's looking to be seriously good evening with a number of other secret guest acts on the bill.
We've put together a mix for Puma keeping in with a 90s theme. Get the mix on the Soundcloud player at the bottom of the page and check out the Puma Trinomic XT2 teaser video below that.
More info about the 90s retro release from Puma can be found over on their blog here and if you're heading to tomorrow nights get together make sure you come say hi! O x
Hey guys Sorry for the silence over the past few months. It's been one hell of a busy summer and a lot of fun has been had. Shouts to all the festival crews who have made it such a good summer season.
So as we bid farewell to the sunshine and look forward to the return of her icy sistress we thought we'd come into today with a barrage of mix tapes that have been keeping us on our toes since we last posted back in June. No more words just a shed load of quality splicing. Enjoy. x Mr Solid Gold & Park Ranger - Live from the NYC Downlow @ Glastonbury
Got you a serious mix tape today from our fellow Oonst crew men Ollie Rigg & A.T.T.S. A straight 2 hours of tunage on this one covering the entire spectrum of the house music that Oonst is about.
Oonst will be returning to its East London base of Basing House on the 12th of July for an evening of tunage with special guests Nick Hoppner and Mr. Solid Gold with Rigg and A.T.T.S in support. Head over to the RA event page here for early bird tickets and more details.
Get the mix on the player below and let us know what you think. O x
Friday is finally here! About ruddy time as well.. Got you a smooth ass mixtual recommendation today freshly posted by those superb house and disco peddlers over at The House of Disco. If you don't know the site/label already it will be well worth your time heading over to the web page here and signing up to their mailing list. The guys give out a constant stream of free track downloads always with the permission of the maker and I'm yet to hear one that hasn't gone straight in our digital record box.
The mix has been put together by German based duo Satin Jackets and is definitely one to crack on the mp3 pod for sound tracking your laid back summers afternoon (or pretending its summer at least!). Slowed up fresh jams through out on this one so make sure you give it listen.
Catch the House of Disco guys down at Corsica Studios tomorrow night (Sat - June 21st) with full details over on the RA event page here. And to anyone lucky enough to have bagged tickets for tomorrow afternoons Hush Puppies roof party, we'll see you there! Us guys and the very sexy Mr. Solid Gold will be on from 1pm. Safe weekends! O x
Happy Tuesday people....One day closer to that weekend. In nice and early today with a hot off the press selection from the superb DJ Caspa. A master of the vinyl this man knows his way around a popping DJ set. Resident for one of our favorite South London gatherings Percolate Casper has yet to disappoint on both his live DJ sets and his regular mix tapes. His set back at Double Trouble in January was true quality and i had the pleasure of playing before him a few weeks back down at Percolate. Trust me the man knows how to get a crowd going. Club energy through out on this one keeping things skipping with quality house and garage tinged summer freshness.
You can catch Caspa this Sunday 23rd of June on The Underground sessions alongside Wolf Music's Medlar. Head on over to Caspa'a Soundcloud here for more details and get the mix on the player below. Back later in the week. O x
Wow! What a weekend that was. Chic at the Kentish Town forum followed by Trouble Vision & Tief at Found Festival Saturday. Summer is definitely here. Big love to all the Found festival crew and to any one else that joined in on the 48 hours of party. I slept very well last night! Now on to next weekend. This Saturday (22nd June) we will be joining the line up alongside fellow Trouble Vision resident Mr. Solid Gold and DJ duo Bondax for what is looking to be a very special day time session indeed.
Hosted by Hush Puppies this will be the first of their Dog Days summer parties taking place on the Rockwell House roof space in Shoreditch - East London (see the pic below). We will be warming things up most of the day with Bondax taking the headline slot later in the afternoon. The party is bring your own booze (this can be a very good thing for the wallet!) as well as having a BBQ put on by the mighty Meat Liquor..........One of London's number 1 burger joints. The roof opens at 1pm and will be running through til 7pm.

Happy Friday! Back today with another mix from the Trouble Vision fam. This one is from the mighty Park Ranger. One of my all time favourite mix men and collector of some of the finest records out there.
The mix has been put together for Stop Making Sense festival taking place in Croatia in July. One of the classiest festivals Croatia has to offer and Trouble Vision will be returning this year to host both Boat and club sessions. Find out more about SMS over on the web site here and start sorting those flights. It's well worth the trip! Check out Park Rangers latest offering on the mixcloud player below and for any one heading to Chic later tonight or Found Festival tomorrow we look forward to shaking a leg with you! O x
Eh up! Hope your weeks are going well. In to day with this quality mix recording from our Trouble Vision boss man Mr. Solid Gold. And what a tape it is. If you live in London then you will most certainly be aware that this Saturday Found Festival will be taking place up in East London's Haggerston park. Apart from the line up being extremely weighty there is also the added bonus that Trouble Vision and sister party crew Tief will be hosting a stage for the day. The TV/Tief stage will feature artists including Henrik Schwarz, Tim Sweaney, Floating points, Session Victim and many more (check the flyer below yo).
As with all TV events a selection of resident will be holding things down through out the day and we have the added bonus of this fresh little selection from TV head honcho Mr. Solid Gold to get you all in the mood. It is absolute quality as well. Get it on the player below and head over here for last minute festival tickets....be quick though as they are running low. We also have a little Trouble Vision afterparty session taking place at the Dance Tunnel in Dalston once the festival gates close with a very special guest heading it up. Details for that can be found here. No advance tickets left for the after party but there will be plenty on the door if you're quick. Make sure you drop by the TV/Tief stage and say hi if you are heading down. O x
A new week and a fresh selection of records. Thought I'd crack up my latest Juno chart today. A top ten of 12"s that are bursting out of my record bag. Back in the week with some fresh mixtuals for you as well.
It seems everyone is cracking out the 45 love as the summer kicks in This amazing little selection comes from one of my all time favorite spinners Floating Points. Spliced together after the Eglo records 4 year Birthday party a few days back. Sunshine jams through out on this one. Fire up the BBQ and get on down. O x
The high energy disco legend Giorgio Moroder stepped up earlier this week for what i find hard to believe, his first DJ set ever!?
As part of the Redbull studios event with Francois Ks "Deep Space" party Giorgio laid down a 74 minute set in New York City featuring a lathering of his timeless greats. I've had a listen and it is definitely packed with fire including personal favorites such as "From here to Eternity" and of course Donna Summer's "I Feel Love". Like i say, i find it hard to believe this is his first DJ set ever but with a back catalogue like his this is definitely worth a listen.
His recent collaboration with Daft Punk has brought back some well due attention to one of the pioneers of disco, techno and electronic music in general and hopefully this means we'll be hearing a lot more from the 73 year old don in the coming months. Have a listen on the player below. O x
A bit more disco today but in it's classic form. This cheeky selection mixed from original release 7 inch records only comes hot off the press direct from the studios of the legendary Larj Hans and his team the OK Jones band.
Organic, loose yet sexy as hell. Not going to say any more about this one so i suggest you crack it on loud and get on down. Look out for Larj Hans & The OK Jones Band at a festival site near you over the coming summer months. Mix on the player below and head on over to the Larj Hans Soundcloud page for more disco and funk splicings.
Easy all. Back in today after another break from the posting with this amazingly crafted mix from the one and only Skream.........And you know we love our disco.
Hats off to Skream for this one as well. Known throughout the World as one of Croydon's original dubstep pioneers it shows the true skill of the selector when they can splice together such a quality sack of disco and disco tinged edits like this.
From what we've seen on twitter and other trolling platforms it seems he's been getting a bit of stick for putting out mixes in a non "dubstep" genre or even for moving more towards house and techno in his sets. Well, to that we're with Skream all the way. Playing the same sets day in day out can get a tad boring and surely the art of the DJ set should not restrain you to the genre that you started putting out near on 8 years ago.
And too anyone that even hints at the idea that he is jumping on the Daft Punk band wagon. This man has been mixing disco for time with one set laid down at Corsica Studios many many moons ago being one of my top nights at our regular haunt.........ever.
Get it on the player below hosted by the the lovely people over at Do Androids Dance and make sure you don't miss out on any opportunity to catch Skream playing something with a little more funk over the coming festival season.
It's not about bass when you find your groove. O x
Something a touch different today. You may know that we are massive fans of the Tusk Wax label and it's always very special when the mysterious label boss - Tusk puts together a mix.
This absolute beauty of a selection has been put together by the man himself for Audio Parallax. Head on over to the site here for the reasoning behind the mix as well as an interview with Tusk. Like i said earlier. Its not what you'll expect but i have a feeling you may secretly enjoy it. Mix on the player below. This one is going out to our boy Dan. RIP bruv. x
Another fun weekend that was. Love to all the Oonst crowd for Friday night. Massive love going out to Luca Lozano and Alex Egan for coming down and laying down superb sets. Also shouts to Mr Hesselworth and the Tief massive. We dropped by Corsica studios on Saturday for what turned out to be one of the best parties of 2013 for me. An absolute belter from the one and only Henrik Schwartz and one of the best sets I've heard in a long time from today's mix recommendation creator Hunee.
I've been a fan of Hunee for a wee while now but was yet to catch a full set from him in a party environment. Saturday night was my first and i am very pleased to say it was epic. From disco rarities to pumping grooved out house and techno cuts. Hunee was one of the night makers for me. The Berliner knows a thing or two about creating a party.
Wanted to post this mix today put together by Hunne for the East London store LN-CC a couple of months back. Its a little slower at first from his usual club sets but in true mix tape style builds things perfectly from its Jazzy beginnings to the latter funk and disco perfection he was slamming out on Saturday night. It doesn't get to housey but thats not always a bad thing.
Thursday wussups all round! Sorry for the lack in posts over the past week. We've been all over the place and neglecting our web space like dogs. Hopefully we'll be able to make it up to you today and tomorrow. In today with this freshly cut house selection from our Italian Brother man Baunz.
Baunz aka Dario Vola has been smashing it of late with releases out on ModaBLACK, This IS Music, A collaboration with Little Boots out on 2020Vision and plenty more in the pipe line. We also had the pleasure of him coming down and playing a set at Oonst a few months back and what a set he laid out! This little splicing is his April installment and it is filling my Thursday afternoon with everything that i could want. Fresh rollers and deep clean house throughout. Get it on the player below and go follow the man on twitter here. O x
Happy Monday guys. Hope you all had suitably safe weekends. We are definitely feeling the Monday burn again. Shouts going out to the Beastmode crew for one hell of a party down at The Bussey Building in Peckham on Saturday. We thoroughly enjoyed our set,and highly recommend checking out their next installment in the not so distant future. In today with two quality recordings. The Pushamann - Rinse FM show
The second Rinse installment from the Pushamann today. Recorded at the Rinse studios a couple of weeks back and packed with the usual house quality that The Pushamann brings to the floor every time round.
We're really loving the switch up coming through from Rinse FM recently with new shows from peeps including Horse Meat Disco, Tief's Mr Hesselworth and of course Charles Kerr AKA The Pushamann. It really shows that they are making an effort to keep things fresh and with such talent stepping up its working a treat. Get the show on the jump here or on the url below if the interwebs being difficult.
http://podcast.dgen.net/rinsefm/podcast/ThePushamann060413.mp3 Hannah Holland - Gouge Away mix Another mix tape treat today from the very talented Hannah Holland. The Batty Bass boss lady brings it in in typical style on this splicing with fresh as death house cuts through out. Featuring tracks from Few Nolder, Dan Beaumont, and an unrelease jam from her good self - "Glass Lin".
Get it on the Soundcloud player below with full track listing over on the Soundcloud page. Check out more from Hannah over on Hannah's Facbook page here.
Another weekend done and we have the battle wounds to prove it was good. Big shouts to Ruben and Will and the whole Resident Cohhons crew for their sterling effort of a party down at Canavans in Peckham on Friday. We were treated to an epic 3 hours of finely laid out musicals from Trouble Vision residents Mr Solid Gold and Park Ranger. One hell of a fun evening was had by all and we look forward to the next! Carrying on with a lean towards the residents and warm up soldiers of London town today. As a city with more than enough parties, "deep house" hitting more ears than it has in a long time and every other dude and his cousin being a DJ sometimes the real soldiers, the record collectors, the people who have been doing this for more than time can easily be forgotten.
The true art of the Dj and the years of soldiering and learning the art of the selector can be as, if not more than important than anything else. It definitely shows when a DJ has spent many an hour learning the art of cranking out more than just the big jams. We're definitely noticing these type of DJs starting to get a little more of their well deserved attention recently. With quality nights like Rhythm Section and Resident Cochons leading the way it's a real positive thing to see.
BoaBoa an old friend of ours and long time master of down right quality splicings has just sent over his latest concoction. BoaBoa aka David Boa is definitely a connoisseur of tune selection, impeccable mixing skills and is a man that has a serious passion for what he does. A long time learning just how it should be done certainly shows on this one.
A smooth selection of house throughout on this April effort from Boa. Featuring DJ Koze, James Welsh, Ripperton and a whole host of other fresh sounding rollers. This one will ease your ears into the new week perfectly. Get it on the player below and check for more details of where you can find BoaBoa hiding out over on his Soundcloud page here
