Tief Launch party + Mix download

Got two big DJ Sneaks coming up next week from graphics and illustration man HeyGus and DJ duo This & That but today we're going to bring in the weekend with details of one of the freshest new parties to be hitting London town accompanied with an equally fresh mix.



Tief launches at Corsica studios this Saturday 24th September and will be bringing some outstanding line ups to our fine city over the coming months. Captained up by our fellow Trouble Vision resident Matt Hesseltime, Tief will be focusing on the deeper and more melodic end of the house spectrum. This Saturday's opener sees Dial co founder Laurence heading up the proceeds alongside Dutch new skooler Tom Trago, Melbourne's deep disco fiend Tornado Wallace, London's very own Jozif and a host of our favorite people of the moment including Greymatter, Bicep and Casino Times. Residents Matt Hesseltime, Thick As Thieves and John Malcolm Moore will also be on duty to keep things in check.

John Malcolm Moore (left) and Matt Heseltime (right) will be keeping things sweaty.


We also have a superb Tief podcast series opener mix from resident John Malcolm Moore on the Soundcloud player below to get your minds and body ready. Track Listing Soon.

Check out the Facebook event page and RA page for more details and tickets.

DJ Sneaks #16 Monkey Safari

Oooof! Got super excited when this DJ Sneaks edition came through this morning. Extra added value today with our first double Sneaker image, first DJ Sneaks featuring classic Asics, a seriously tight mix plus a snippet of a rather tasty release.

Hailing from Halle Germany, Monkey Safari have made quite an impact over the past few years smashing clubs the world over with their smooth sample based house. With their own label What! What! Rolling along nicely and the launch of their new label Mambo things are not looking to slow down anytime soon. We caught their set at Gottwood festival earlier in the summer and it was definitely one of our festival highlights. The guys are also members of the mighty Jackmode family and their new 4 track Ep “Big Mama” is out now as the third release on the new Jackmode label. We are loving the release a lot with the opening track “Son” going straight into our sets from now on.

Check out the promo video below for snippets of the release and get on over to Beatport here to cop yourself a copy.

Monkey Safaris Kicks-

Lars’ Kicks (Left) - A very classy pair Asics Gel-Lyte III reworked by Japanese brand Zillion here. The release name “Everything is a remix” is also the company motto for Zillion who are known for producing clothes made with material salvaged from old kimonos!? High quality Japanese fabric “Chirimen” is used on the uppers and the off white looks slick. Nice to see they are getting worn as well as this pair needs showing off.

Sven’s Kicks (Right) - Onitsuka Tiger koi klub model. This super limited pair are designed by the extremely cool Berlin berlin based Koi Club founder Yoske Nishumi. The collaboration series takes the classic 80s Asics X-Caliber kick and has turned them in to a very enviable shoe. Serious style vibes with the denim, black and red colour ways. I would like a pair of these.

This is what the guys had to say about them – “A good friend of ours sent us these strong limited shoes three months ago. We didn´t know how they were going to look like but she said we would definitely like them and yo, she was right. Now we doin our safaris almost every day in these nice boots.... sometimes in Memphis”

The Mix-

A superb mix opening with the amazing Poirot rework of Lykke Li’s “After Laughter” as well as being packed with their own originals and a number of other Jackmode fam favorites. Also note the crazy track going under the name “Safari in Memphis” by “Unknown” slipped in the second half of the mix. Recorded for the regular Jackmode show on Pulse radio this is definitely worth a stream. Check it on the player below with track listing below that.

Tracklisting-

1. Lykke Li - After Laughter (Poirot Rework)
2. Noir & Haze - Around (Solomun Vox Mix)
3. Monkey Safari - Tripster
4. Veitengruber - All You Got
5. Nick Monaco - Nicks Episode (Ardalan Remix)
6. Round Table Knights - All Night feat. Ghostape (Monkey Safari's Tennis On The Table Mix)
7. Unknown - Safari In Memphis
8. Stereo Express - La Vie En Rose feat. Orlando
9. ZDS feat. Spoek - We Should Bang Tonight (Monkey Safari's Hells Bells Mix)
10. Oliver Schleenvoigt - Nane
11. Monkey Safari - Son

R.I.P. DJ Medhi

Rumours on twitter this afternoon of the death of one of the greatest DJs and performers of our time are increasingly looking to be true. According to reliable sources Medhi died in a tragic accident earlier today.

We had the pleasure of meeting DJ Medhi a few times most notably after he had laid down one of his stupidly good eclectic and energy filled sets at Lovebox festival a few years back and i can honestly say the man was a legend. A pioneer of French hip hop and electronic music and a true inspiration to young DJs and producers all over the world.

DJ Sneaks #15 Kitsch & Sync

Our latest DJ Sneaks mix for your ears today sent over by Mr Josh Panton. Josh... a highly skilled rave promoter, party purveyor and all round top bloke has put the mix together to showcase the sound of his new bi monthly party venture Kitsch & Sync which will next be taking place at Bar a Bar in stoke Newington on Saturday the 1st October. The venture is being being run by Josh and a rabble of other highly qualified party organising veteran as an excuse to get a proper Sunday party style house music vibe on a more accessible (work on Mondays tends to ruin a Sunday party for me at least) day of the week and more importantly without breaking the wallet.

Entry will be free but guest list only (We'll come to that shortly) and they have also taken the running of the bar for their events into their own hands keeping prices at a minimum. Expect cocktails at near on cost price and a balloon bar as well. Full details and flyer at the bottom of the page and Facebook event page here where you can get your name down on that list.

Josh's Kicks-

A hard worn but very classic pair of Nike Dunk Low Safaris.

Josh sent though quite possibly the best blurb we've been sent yet with a DJ Sneaks image so I'll let his words tell you what you need to know.

"The sneaks were my favourite shoes in the whole universe when I bought them and I only very recently gave them their funeral at Secret garden Party. Nike Dunk Low Safaris. A very rich man once offered me £300 when high on pills at Corsica studios to buy them off me + a taxi fare home to Streatham as obviously Id be leaving shoeless. I turned him down, the £300 would have gone a long way but these trainers are gonna stay with me forever. In their hay day they were without doubt the flyest shoes on the planet. Now they look old & disheveled but wink like an old man in a chair reminiscing over his philandering days."

Josh's Mix.

A mix of slow sexy grooves building up to some meaty heads down house later on. This is what he had to say about it. "Mixed at 8 am after getting home, on my turntables. No funny business, just Serato & records. A vein and slightly tipsy attempt to try and showcase the music from Kitsch & sync."

Exhibition this Friday + Synamatix mix

Hope every one had a suitably massive Bank holiday weekend? Big love to the Urchins for having us along to play Just London on Friday night. Following that a standardly huge Trouble Vision got the weekend in to swing and a stop by the Red Bull party on Monday at Carnival topped off another amazing "semi official" end to the summer.

Coming up this weekend. Our party Oonst will be returning to XOYO this Saturday the 3rd September but more on that to come in the next few days. Today we thought we'd alert you to this Fridays Exhibition party at the Star of Kings Cross.



Exhibition #1 is the first of many Exhibition nights that will be showcasing up and coming street ware fashion labels alongside some of the freshest new stars in dance music. Hearing good things about the Star of Kings Cross as a venue and with this tasty little line up the party is on to being a winner.


DJs at the launch include hyped youngsters Hackman, Graphics, Synamatix (who also provides us with the mix at the bottom of the page) as well as every bodies favorite blog man Pelski who has transferred his writing skills exceedingly smoothly to the DJ decks over the past summer.

On the clothing front there will be items to view and for sale from LNUK, Beg Designs and our favorite T shirt brand of Summer 2011 Yoghurt Warrior.

Get a listen to the launch party mix on the mixcloud player below put together by Synamatix. Synamatix, founder of Deadplate records as well as member of my favorite trainered up web site The daily street brings it proper on this 1st in the Exhibition mix series, taking on house, garage and bass in a standard Synamatix seamless manner.

Crack it on loud and get over to the Exhibition #1 Facebook event page here for full deets.

DJ Sneaks # 14 Tony Volker

So, we thought we'd try something a little different. We've got a couple of mixes coming up over the next few days that are not our usual house fodder. Obviously the House music is still our staple diet but as stated by our good buddy Sam whilst relaxing on the beach at Stop Making Sense festival - " Have you got anything that isn't House?" So here you go.

First up is a mix tape from the immensely talented Tony Volker. Tone has spent the last few years secretly slipping off to his bed room to produce the most amazingly charming acoustic based music.



We were always aware of his love of the guitar and knew he could knock a tune together. But he quietly let known to us a few months back that he has put a selection of his favorite bedroom creations in one place resulting in a genuinely brilliant and original album. His sound is made even more endearing by the fact that he has put it all together purely for the love of making his music and the occasional crackle of a lomo bedroom recording set up adds to the chilled and upbeat atmosphere he's created on each song. Any way, enough of my descriptive bollox, the Album "Moving Plates" is up on his Bandcamp page here for sale at the price of what ever you want to give. He's also given us a couple of freebies to download below so get on the DL and see what you think.

Losing Streak Mp3

Night Time Parasite Mp3

Tony's Kicks - Tony has sent us an image of his pair of Mercurial Nike footy boots. A hint toward his sporting past we think, with many a tail of coaching young boys past over to us at the pub table. (No.....Tone is a teacher for anyone with a sick mind). Anyway, nice to have something a little different to go with a slightly different DJ Sneaks.



Tony's Mix- As we've stated, something a little different today. A throw back to the old ways of making a mix tape. We all remember when a mix tape meant putting together a selection of tracks in one place that would play one after the other without having to change the CD or for those of you old enough...the tape. I think these mix tapes, especially when passing them on to other people are the hardest to put together. Have a listen on the player below and get on over to Tony's Bandcamp page and buy his album for something a little different to the usual housey house to get you through the day.

DJ Sneaks #13 Kiwi - "The Summer Mix"

Going in hard with the DJ Sneaks mixes over the next few days as our couple of weeks off have meant a back log of superb mixes and delightful kicks pics have been piling up. We have something a little different to the usual house tip coming soon from singer/producer Tony Volker as well as a fresh take on the mix tapes of our yout from Artist and Graphics man HeyGus. But today a summer mixtual treat from DJ, Producer and all round club man Kiwi.

Kiwi (from New Cross and not New Zealand he states) has put together a smooth selection of "Honey infused vocals and shlomo grooves" which has been sound tracking my morning in the office rather nicely.



Kiwi aka Alex Warren is no new comer to the DJ walk of life with most of his time spent running his ongoing club night Orlando Boom as well as heading up bookings at one of our favorite Dalston rave pits The Nest. His recent bootleg rework alongside Joe & Will Ask? of Moloko "The time is now" has also been one of our choice grooves of the past few months. Get yourself over to his Soundcloud here for a listen.

Kiwi's Kicks-

A limited edition release of the Nike Air Max Structure Triax 91s here. Not too clued up myself on the Triax editions but am liking the colour way and it could even be the first low air max to temp me away from my love of the 90s and classic Air Max 1s. The pic he's sent over is pretty smooth as well..




Kiwi's Mix -

As I've already mentioned above, Kiwi describes this mix better than i ever could so i'll leave you with his words and let you ears do the er..........listening.

Kiwi kicks off a new residency at new party "Kate Boss" launching at the Nest on the 2nd September. scoot over to here for full deets.

DJ Sneaks #12 Mr Solid Gold + Trouble Vision Carnival Warm up Party

And we're back!

Sorry for the lack in posts over the past 2 weeks. We have been off gallivanting in Croatia at the amazing Stop Making Sense Festival and what a time we had. Massive love to the Stop Making Sense crew for having us and the Trouble Vision family along. We'll be posting a little review with some pics, videos and hopefully the radio show we recorded live on the beach stage for London Fields Radio as soon as i can track it down.

So, on to today's latest DJ Sneaks mix from our very own Trouble Vision boss man Mr Solid Gold aka Christopher Gold.

The Kicks
A seriously fresh pair of Nike Air Max 1s have been hanging out on Mr Solid Gold's feet recently, all out black definitely looks good on the Air Max 1s, keeps them club fresh and are a little rarer than this summers in your face colour schemes in the same model. The pic below in standard Mr Solid Gold style snapped straight from the office on a right foot only tip as he's busily thinking up London's next club smashing line up.

In his words- " OK, So yeah the Air Max 1s offer premium comfort, while not sacrificing any style. Its a win win with these puppies."




The Mix
A true purveyor of sound and party, Mr Solid Gold has put together a selection of summer beauts.
I'll let you take in his words again for a wee bit of what it's all about.

"It's basically a selection of some of the tunes i've been playing over the summer, from grimey clubs to beautiful countryside. Recorded totally live (no monkey business) with some old and some new, its basically a real mixture."

Get on the Soundcloud Player below for a refreshing ear journey as well as the download link and track listing below that.
