Wow, where do we start with this mix. All I can say is house music producers out there have raised the bar with the tracks released this month.
You only have to look at the names in the tracklisting to know your in for something very special. We start off deep with the ever consistent Jimpster on the remix.
We stay nice and deep with Joeflame, Vlad Caia and Shade just to get you warmed up. We then have back to back releases from the vaults of Mr Conan Manchester. It should be a crime to keep tracks this good locked up! But we thank you for finally sharing them with us.
Next come two vocal monsters. You can't get much bigger than Peven Everett mixed by Quentin Harris and what a tune, it's like three tracks in one. Definately one of my favourite Quentin tracks. Then Kloud 9 return with a gem that you'll be singing for months. Mr Earnshaw is back again, the boy must have been eating his 3 shredded wheat cos he's on form with another two remixes in this months mix.
Quentin is then on the receiving end of the remix, this time it's Groove Assassin tearing up "Can't Stop". Insatiable is a track getting a lot of attention at the moment and with good reason.
We then turn things up another notch with "Dance Out Loud", followed by the sweet sound of Joi Cardwell with "Make It Alright". "Socialize" is a treat for the ears courtesy of the boys from Belgium. We wind up with a beauty, "Sumtin" on Shifted is a slice of smooth from down under. Doing mixes is easy when the tunes are this good! This mix is going to get cained at Southport (well in my chalet at least!!)

Been into house music for 20 years now.
Lucky enough to grow up in the North of England in the late 80's early 90's. Enabled me to see all the legendary DJs that built the scene. Been DJ'ing since 94.
Over the years I've been into most scenes as they emerged, House, US Garage, UK Garage, Deep House, Funky House, Latin Vibes, Chicago Jack and of course the Soulful Vocal stuff.
My mixes are a reflection of those styles, usually starting off on a mellow vibe progressing through to the chunky stuff before bringing you safely back down on the other side. The common theme being great quality bottom heavy, shake your ass music.
Legends for me over the years - too many to mention them all: MAW, Joey Negro, Grant Nelson, Quentin Harris, DJ Spen, Karizma, Tony Humphries, Kerri Chandler, Brian Tappert, Graham Park, Mike Pickering, Liquid People - the list goes on.
Favourite labels over the years - Strictly, Nervous, Swing City, Nice N Ripe, UnRestricted Access, Code Red, Old Skool Subliminal, Old Skool Defected, Soulfuric, Z Records, Old Skool Azuli, King St, MAW, Purple.
I moved to Sydney on the other side of the world 2006. It's a great place, but I do miss the house scene in the UK, theres just nothing else quite like it.
If you ever get the chance, get down to the Southport Weekender for the best music weekend of your life! I really miss it!
Thank you for taking the time to listen. Hope you enjoy the mixes, as much as I enjoy creating them.
That's my little boy Bailey on the decks. He'll be big in the scene one day - just watch out!
Current Favourite track - Francois K - Awakening (Needs Remix) , oh my, oh my oh my, oh my oh my oh my!
Enjoy!
