The Pushamann - Rinse FM show + Hannah Holland - Gouge Away Mix

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.

BoaBoa - April 2013 mix

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 

Happy Monday and catch you later in the week.

Oli D.A.B. - Trouble Vision Podcast 004

Happy Friday!

A little something from myself today. A few weeks back i had the pleasure of being asked to put together a wee mix as part of the Trouble Vision podcast series. It's a massive honor being the first Trouble Vision resident to be allowed to submit a mix for the recently relaunched series so a lot of thought went in to this one. A bit of everything i love in there with a lean towards the laid back funk, soulful numbers and disco jams. House later on as well obviously :-) 




Recorded live in Corsica Studios with two 1210s, two CDjs and a clunky yet beautiful analogue mixer.

Would love you too have a listen and let me know your thoughts on the Soundcloud player below.

Ewan Pearson - Boiler Room mix - march 2013

Doubling up the posts today as I've just had a chance to listen to Ewan Pearson's Boiler room mix from last week and it would be cruel of me not to get it up here now. 

I am now regretting not making it down to Andrew Weatherall and Sean Johnston's - Love from Outer Space party on Sunday even more. After listening to this absolute treat you'll understand why.  Ewan joined Dan Avery, Mr Weatherall and more for a serious session down at Corsica studios to bring out the Easter weekend in style and due to over excessive partying on the previous days i missed out. 

                    

Lesson learned. This mix make up for it a little bit. Check it and download it on the Soundcloud below or check out the set in full via the trusty boiler room video cam.

Get it on the Soundcloud player at the bottom of the page with track list available over on the Soundcloud page.

Robin on NTS Radio - Thursday 28th March

Hey guys. Hope you all had safe and fun Easter weekends and managed to fit in as much party and down time as you could.

Big love to the Trouble Vision crowd from Thursday. A huge night was had by all that i spoke to so thanks for coming down and partying like gooduns. Also shouts to the Big Chill bar crew and all that came along to see us play on Saturday. It was another cracker. 



In this week with a fresh NTS show laid down by Robin on Thursday evening. Stepping in for the Dark Sky boys, Robin took air wave control from ten til midnight. A perfect little selection of laid back numbers rolling through to some serious house and techno jams later on.

Take the jump on the link here (or url below, not sure why it mentions T Williams in the link tho?) to the NTS web site for a full stream.

Midweek Mixtuals: Ben Sun - Pelski Podcast + C90s - Spring Mix

Happy Wednesday people.

We'd like to give a shout out to all the Horizons crew, The Trouble Vision and Tief Family, Casino Times, Jackmaster, The Shapes crew, Flux Crew and any one else that joined in with the party. It was a lot of fun and our bodies are near broken. Good times!

Ben Sun - Pelski Podcast 003

Coming in once again from our favorite blog and all round top quality site Pelski is the 3rd edition in their podcast series. 



This one mixed by DJ, Producer and Voyeuryhthm label boss Ben Sun. This fellas DJ sets and production drip with quality. Pelski says it better over on the sites main post with "a welcome counterpoint to the current deluge of naff deep house". We cannot agree more. Get in on the player below and head over to the Pelski site here for the full post.





C90s - Spring Mix tape.

Our second treat for today is this superb splicing coming from London duo The C90s. 




From knowing one half of the duo, Danny from well back in the day and being a fan of his stuff since then i always look forward to the latest mix offering coming from these guys. Amazing tune selection and perfectly laid down every time. This one definitely brings an element of spring to the table with funked out upbeat gems and fresh sounding stompers through out.  Get it on the Soundcloud player below and head over to the C90s Soundcloud page here for more from the guys.

Luca Lozano - Good Bait mix

Thursday Mixtual recommendation.

Coming in fresh and early today with this cracker of a mix from Klasse label co founder Luca Lozano. The British but now Berlin based producer brings this one in true Luca style, laying down a pumped out hour of the finest quality house and techno and mixed for the quality label/blog site Good Bait. Dark rolling and bass led through out, this one is well worth cracking on the sound system and experiencing in it's full beauty. 



Head over to the Good Bait site here for the original post and Soundcloud player.

We're also very pleased to announce that we will be welcoming Luca to our 2nd Oonst party of 2013 taking place on the 26th April at Basing House, Shoreditch with the very talented producer/selector Alex Egan also joining the bill.

Daft Punk Influences mix - CK - 2011

Unless you've been asleep for the past month then you should have caught wind of the Daft Punk come back rumors and being one hell of a Daft Punk fan this is some of the best news i've heard for a wee while. Talk of Chic's Nile Rogers and disco/high energy god Giorgio Moroder on the colab tip also means that this could be one of the greatest things to hit our ear pods in a little while.



Thought we'd post this audio treat today in the form of CKs Daft Punk influence mix put together back in 2011 for Bodytonic blog to keep in with the hype. This version below is supposedly the extended version with an extra hour of tunage to the original post featuring 88 tracks that influenced Daft Punk's 1997 ground breaking Homework album.

This ones definitely worth listening to in full so free up two hours, crack on your headphones and get involved. This is one hell of a mix.

Bake - Boiler room mix (2011)

Short on time today so not many words for you but we thought we'd crack up this fantastic mix by Bake recorded live at the Hessle Audio Boiler Room session back in 2011. One hell of a live mix and the man's tune selection is right up my street. Been enjoying this one for a wee while now.




Catch Bake at the Easter Trouble Vision session alongside myself, Mr Solid Gold, Maxxi Soundsystem, Deetron and many more. More details on the event can be found here.

Safe weekend ya'll.

Alex Egan - NTS - Rhythm Connection Mix

Morning. Straight in nice and early today with this wonderful splicing from Alex Egan. We posted his Boiler room warm up set a few months back and as great as it was it was definitely too short (Boiler room time restraints likely to be the cause there). 



We thought we'd get this full length mix up today to give you an even better taste of what Mr Alex Egan is about. Amazingly thought out running list on this one that more than works. Something Alex is known and respected for. Originally mixed on NTS's Rhythm Connection show but rushed and cut short towards the end due to time restrictions so Alex has re-recorded the sequence for your listening pleasure.

Get in on the Mix cloud below and come check out Alex Egan at our next Oonst event at Basing House, London on the 26th April.

iph - Disco/ Soul/ Funk mix

One treat of a mix for you today. This one comes from a complete unknown to us, i've tried digging out some more info on the guy but haven't yet been too successful however i think it makes it even better with an element of mystery going on.



We became aware of this one when our man Park Ranger posted it on his Facebook page a few weeks back as part of his regular recommendations posts. Any way. The mix is by iph and contains some of the most funk and boogie ridden gems this side of funky town. Something a little different, straight up vinyl and well worth a listen.

Get it on the player below and head on over to the mans Soundcloud page and show some love.

Back in with the mixtuals - Park Ranger, Sleazy McQueen, Midland

Hi all. Sorry for the lack in posts recently. Once again the restraints and daily schedule of modern day life has prevented us getting the good stuff up here for you and for that we are very sorry.

Anyway. We're back!  And what better way to get things rolling again than with a shed load of mixes that have been floating our boat over the past few weeks.

Park Ranger - DownLow Radio mix



First up is this treat from fellow Trouble Vision Resident Park Ranger mixed for those lovely people over at DownLow. One of my favourite DJs to hear play is Park Ranger and i think this mix will show you why. Get it on the player below.




Sleazy McQueen - Pelski Podcast 002



So as we mentioned a few weeks back our favorite blogger and website are back! Pelski and his top notch web space have relaunched. And we are super happy about it. Head on over and check it out here if you haven't already. On the mix front, Pelski Podcast  002 comes from US based Sleazy McQueen and it is definitely a keeper.  Recorded live in a LA ware house the mix is packed sleaze ridden house and groove. Check it out on the player below and head over to the Pelski site here for the full post.




Midland - Recorded live @ Panorama Bar, Berlin.

Last up today is this powerful set from Midland recorded live from 5:30 am til 8:30am at Berlin party Sub:stance. 



In what i would expect from a quality Panorama Bar set this one has some go to it. If this doesn't leave you wanting to book your Berlin flights then nothing will. House, techno, bass and percussion laid out in the skillful way Midland has become known for. Our Man Mr Solid Gold was present for the evening of the party and has said Midland's set was definitely a highlight. Get it on the player below.

Tief + Beat In Space

Happy Thursday yo!

Tief + Beat In Space = One hell of a slice of fried gold 

One step closer to the weekend and more importantly for any one down in London town tomorrow, one step closer to what is looking to be one of the best parties of the year so far. Friday evening at our favourite London noise den Corsica Studios, Trouble Vision sister party Tief return with a line up that is enough to wow the most seasoned of house and disco lovers.



Tomorrow's proceedings will see Todd Terje, Prosumer, Iron Curtis, Linkwood, Casino times, Ejeca, Ben Sun..........(take a breath)............along side residents Hesseltime, Mr Solid Gold and Thick As Thieves. If that isn't a serious enough line up i don't know what is. 

Also joining tomorrow nights line up as well as his weekly show being in association with the event on this occasion will be Beats In Space Radio host Tim Sweeney....... Which brings us nicely on to today's mix recommendations.

We've posted a few Beats In Space shows over the past few years and as a weekly radio show that brings interesting guests and different takes on the house and disco we crave, BIS really does hit the spot. We cannot recommend enough heading over to the BIS site here and subscribing to the show. Streamed live from New York city every Tuesday and then posted on the site for pod cast pleasure, recent shows have included guests such as Daniel Avery, HNNY, No Regular Play and a very funny session with DFA's Juan Maclean. There's not enough decent house and disco music shows around that bring the perfect mix of chat, music and dance eclecticism that BIS does and it really is a testament to Mr Sweeney.

We thought we'd post up Tim Sweeney's Boiler room video session recorded in London at the end of last year to get you in the mood and please make sure you head on over to the Beats In Space site and check it out ( if you are not already a regular obvs).

                        

Pre sales for tomorrow nights Tief have now all gone but there will be limited numbers available on the door from 10pm. Trust us when we say you need to get there early to grab one and hopefully we'll see you on the dance floor.
