Friday Mixtuals - Mr Solid Gold SMS mix + George Teare mix

Just a quick one to showcase two of today's very fine mixtuals as i promised yesterday we'd have something fresh for you.

Mr Solid Gold - SMS Podcast

Straight off the turn tables this one from our very own Trouble Vision head man Mr Solid Gold. A smooth strictly in the low Bpm end of house music mix from Mr Solid Gold here, put together for the Stop Making Sense festival podcast.

After our first visit last summer to Stop Making Sense on the beautiful shores of the Croatian Med, i can vouch for it being one of the best overseas rave choices around. Make sure you get over to the Stop Making Sense web site here to get all the upcoming announcements for this years session taking place at the beginning of August. Also, check here and here for deets of the Trouble Vision double session coming up in two weeks.

George Teare - January 2012 Mix
Another hot off the pressing plates mix here sent over a few minutes ago from DJ/Producer George Teare. London based George may be a new name to some of you but with a fresh productions in the pipeline and a very talented ear expect to see more of him over the next few months.

Also as co promoter of Inigo's Groove2 alongside Santigo Perez the guys are on a mission to bring real house and nu disco to the postcode of Clapham. Check George at his next party coming up on the 17th February .

DJ Sneaks #8 Firas

Been itching to get our latest DJ Sneaks mix up as it has been a wee while and what better way to bring in mix number 8 than with a tribute to a trusty pair.

Now I know we usually like to post the shiniest or flashest footwear a DJ may own and treasure but that loyal pair of kicks that keeps your feet comfortable yet looking pimp even in the muddiest of rave fields is sometimes forgotten and with the festival season upon us this is the pair that will hopefully take you through the next few months with pride.

My trusty Nike Air Max lights have been everywhere with me and still brush up clean as well as hold down the occasional washing machine spin with the stiff upper lip of an SAS commando so i am also glad that this edition of DJ Sneaks is displaying another pair of festival proven Nikes.

Stepping up with his veteran pair this time round we welcome Filthy Few boss man and one half of previously posted Caze Nove, Firas Waez. As well as his duo project alongside usual partner in crime Jay Karim, Firas has established himself as a serious player on the Dance music scene across the UK and beyond playing out regularly as well as hosting radio shows for NME, Snowbombing, Bestival radio and more with his latest mix below being put together for his new show every Thursday from 4-6pm on House FM.



The Kicks.
Firas is rocking his festival faithful Nike Dunk highs in white canvas with a tasty blue trim. White may not be the first choice of a rural action sneak but with the canvas model being pretty rugged as well as handling a good scrubbing these have most certainly done him well. We touched on the history of the Nike Dunk with DJ Sneaks #5 from Franky Redente so not going to go to much into it again, but the Basketball designed high ankles will definitely provide good support in muddy terrain.




We asked Firas why he chose these as his Sneaks mix choice.

"I've decided to go with these as they have done me proud over the last year. Broken in at Glastonbury, muddied at Bestival and trounced around London. They're nearing retirement age and for that reason, I put them on display today."

Big call.


The Mix
Just listened through the mix and it is definitely going straight pon di mp3 player, smooth clean house bombs throughout. No track listing just to keep you guessing but i will definitely be mailing him for a few hints on some.

Firas has also sent us over a free download of his latest production work "With Me" available on the Soudcloud at the bottom of the page. Get on the DL

NGOMA Lost In Music free download

Another bank holiday is upon us, and to celebrate the next 4 days of freedom, to toast the happy couple as well look forward to the end of the ongoing boredom of media manure that has come with the whole royal wedding pa lava our boys NGOMA have sent over a pretty regal tune for all of you to down load and keep as a momentum.



NGOMA aka Ben Peel and Tom Stockdale have been working non stop over the past 12 months honing in their studio skills as well as keeping things tight on the DJ front and things are definitely starting to pay off.

"Lost in music" takes a classic sample (You've probably guessed what it is by now) and subtly slides it in with a refreshingly vintage house beat jazzed up with a lot of new age fun.

Any way, here's a statement from Ben NGOMA to get us in the celebratory swing of things and make sure you check out the Lost In Music video below as well as get on the free track download from the Soundcloud link further down the page.

"We look forward with great anticipation to Friday, as my local which has no television will be virtually empty leaving the bar maid ample time to attend to our every whim. Thank you Wills and Kate." - Ben NGOMA
