Friday Mixtuals - Pelski + Coat Of Arms + Creed & Stone

As promised we're back with three top level mixes for this week's Friday mixtuals. Really spoilt for choice here as each mix is a right beaut. I've had all of them playing on constant rotation over the past few days. Definitely all well worth downloading on to your players and they're also going to leave you trying dig out a weighty bag load of tracks.

First up every ones favorite blogger Pelski steps up with his latest splice.

Pelski - "House & Disco Fix #1".
Proving that he can mix like a goodun as well as having a very sharp ear, Pelski serves up a top class mix of laid back disco funk and groove laden house treats.



Stand out selections on this one including Dave Allison's "Soda Pop" prove he's on the ball when it comes to treating us to hard to find gems. Check it on the Soundcloud player below with a fresh download link here and track listing over on the Soundcloud page here.



Coat Of Arms - "February - March 2012 Mix"

With Eats Everything taking over the World and Chris James busy slamming out jam after jam you may be forgiven for overlooking their joint Project "Coat of Arms. Their debut record and massive Summer groove "Is this something" was a staple number in pretty much every DJ set i heard towards the end of last year.



The boys have recently joined Future Boogie on the bookings front so hopefully we'll be seeing a lot more of them as a duo over the nearing festival season. Check out the mix on the Soundcloud player below. Packed with Coat of Arms material taking you smoothly through a selection of sub ridden house and deep treats. Download also available here.



Creed & Stone - Sping Mix- 2012

Fresh from the Jackmode Berlin Office Creed & Stone have mixed us another big one. After meeting back in the Spring of 2011 their work for Klasse Recordings and Jackmode Agency brought together two chaps with a love for Berlin's underground house scene. Dickon Stone and James Creed decided to combine production, selection and DJ blendation skills and under the suitably appropriate name Creed & Stone haven't looked back since.



Filled with Deep percussive rollers, this one brings a slightly darker feel to the table but without loosing an inch of groove. Take an earful on the player below with download link also available over on the Soundcloud page.

Also below that check out James Creeds Solo release debut on Klasse Recordings - "The Soft Parade Ep" on the Soundcloud palyer at the bottom of the page. It's out now and available in all good download stores.

DJ Sneaks #9 Pelski

Back in today with another DJ Sneaks mix and keeping in with the faithful festival kicks theme we are very happy to welcome Mr Pelski himself with this amazing mix put together in preparation for the upcoming Gottwood Festival.



If you have not heard of Pelski or read his prolific Pelski blog then you have most definitely been missing out. Pelski and his co writers have been consistently on top of their game for for a very long time now with their blog and party crew churning out some of the best content and freshest tune recommendations around. Their step up on to the party promo scene has also been just as successful with their most recent party collabs alongside the mighty Jackmode agency putting on some of the best line ups of the past year.


Pelski's Kicks......
Pelski aka Duncan Pelham has sent us over a quick snap of his festival faithfuls, and what a classic pair. Pelski's Air Max 90 Infrareds have most certainly done the rounds. I did cringe a little when i saw how these classic Air Max 90 colourways had been trodden through the dirt quite some bit, but then it is quite satisfying to know you have a sweet pair of foot ware that has already taken its bite of muddy field grime and chewed a fair piece of warehouse cud. These are the smooth kicks that you can wipe down with pride and take on to the next session without having to worry about weather or ground conditions and will keep you looking fresh as well as comfy throughout the party.



The Air Max 90s first released in 1990 (as the name probably gives away) are one of the most classic Nike releases ever and the Infrared is quite clearly one of the smoothest colourways.
It turns out Pelski is a bit of a Nike fan also being the proud owner of two pairs of the Terminator high tops but we will be saving those for another day.

This is what the man himself had to say about his faithful foot ware ....." These bad boys are the undisputed holy grail of Nike Kicks. They've been everywhere with me in the last few years - festivals, gigs, holidays, work - and are comfier than a pair of fluffed-up Wallice and Gromitslippers".

I'll vouch for that!

Pelski's Mix.....
Alongside ourselves and the rest of the Trouble Vision crew Pelski will also be heading down to Anglesey in Wales from the 30th June to the 3rd July for the second instalment of the mighty Gottwood festival. Gottwood, now in it's second year was quite possibly one of our favorite festivals of 2010 with this years looking to be even better.
Pelski will be joining forces once again with The Berlin based Jackmode agency hosting a stage and welcoming guests including The Round Table Knights, Matanza, Monkey Safari and of course Pelski himself.
Pelski has put together his "Gottwood's got soul" mix as a wee warm up to the onslaught of fun ahead and i think that if you haven't got a ticket yet this mix may just get you in the mood to get one sorted!

Pelski and Jackmode Presents at Counter Culture

One hella big weekend coming up this week so we thought we'd go over a few of our recommendations. We'll be bringing more info on our Friday night set at the On+On launch later in the week as well as some Thursday eve recommendations but today we thought we should concentrate on Saturday's epic musical gathering put together by the mighty Jackmode agency and the king of the dancy musical blogisphere Pelski.

This Saturday Jackmode and Pelski take over the Crucifix Lane Counter Culture ware house space, a venue that has been providing London's underground with some serious line ups over the past 6 months.

Jackmode and Pelski have already laid down two huge parties at the venue in November and December of last year and once again the set list sheets will not be disappointing.
Heading up room 1 this time round are San Francisco based siblings and Dirty Bird veterans The Martin Brothers.



After Smashing Trouble Vision a few weeks back, Justin Martin alone is enough to get the dance floor juices flowing, so the first UK set by Justin AND his brother Christian in quite some is certainly one not to miss. Their crunching signature style of house will most certainly be making the most of the Crucifix lane function one system and the lovely people of Jackmode have sent us over the first ever Martin Brothers mix tape to show us how.

This mix is really rather special, filled with a number of my favorite current jams and put together in the care free yet tight as a ducks arse style that can only be expected from the Martin Brothers. Get the mix and the track listing at the bottom of the post and talking of ducks we've also posted the official video for The Martin Brothers track "Duck Face" to give you an idea of the crazy but dance floor perfect creations these two tend come out with.



Joining The Martin Bros this Saturday are plenty of other Jackmode family members all worth the trip down to crucifix Lane in their own right including some of our personal faves...... Mr. Ho, Luca Lozano, Johanna Knutsson, James Creed, Charles Darkly and Mr Pelski himself. Another notable addition to the line up and laying out his solo project is one half of Zombie Disco Squad Nat Self. And in true gentlemanly style Nat and Jackmode have also provided us a free download of a tasty little number you can find posted at the bottom of the page as well.

If you are looking for a serious session this Bank Holiday make sure you get on down to Crucifix lane on Saturday night and hopefully we'll see you there! Full party deets on the two links below.
