So, I’ve done quite a lot of mixes recently; all recorded at least a month apart, but due to delays will all be coming out quite close together….the most recent one to be recorded (but the first to appear online) is this one for the lovely folks at whypeopledance.

I had just finished recording a fairly leftfield/electronica/krautrock mix for one station using just Ableton and another mix that was my interpretaition of “psych” (with guitars and all!!!) on vinyl only….so, in light of this and with the statement “Why People Dance” bouncing around in my head, I wanted to do something that more reflected what I might play at a party with a dancefloor (do you remember those?)…using two turntables plus a laptop acting as a sort of third deck.

I’m usually terrible at trying to replicate that party vibe (I mean, it’s impossible really, isn’t it?) when there is no audience to bounce vibes back and forth with but I think partly because I’ve missed doing this so much it felt great fun to record. It was all done live and unplanned, as it should be. Hence you will hear a couple of wobbly mixes and numerous tracks by the same artist….basically just playing a lot of what I’ve recently gotten hold of…..plus a few old favourites thrown in too.

Anyway….hope you enjoy it…and if this isn’t your kind of thing just hold on until tomorrow…that’s when the “psych” mix will be appearing on Automat Radio in Milan.
