This months mix opens with two tracks from 1997. Both of them opened a mellow UK garage mix I did for a friend in Portugal in the summer of 97. The first was released on Back II Basics label, which had been my favourite club for the previous 12 months while I'd been living in Leeds. The second track is the result of two legends coming together, Grant Nelson and Brian Tappert with "Let's Do It". We come right back up to date but stay in the North with a great deep soulful mix by Sheffield's very own Groove Assassin, I can't get the track out of my head, nice work. We stay on the deep side with "Definition Of Soul" and "Supernova" before heading to the lighter side with "Make This Work". "Times Are Changin" is another great vocal track from 97, you can tell I've been digging through my vinyl!! We then head a little deeper with "Tonight" and "Hold Home" (a little something to get your teeth into!). The feel good piano kicks in with "Feels So Good", but is quickly replaced with some booty shakin latin vybes courtesy of DJ Gregory with "Damelo". "What To Do" by Knee Deep uses the haunting sample from "Helpless" to great effect, a quality old skool vocal hook. We round things off with SuSu Bobien on "99 & Half" followed by the smooth "Desabafo" mixed by Guy Robin. No individual stand out tracks this month, just a solid collection of great house.

Podcast SummaryThe very best in deep discofried soulful house with a warm latin centre, sprinkled with classics.
About RichieBeen 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! Fans of this Show
