52M-013: TuneStep Vol.3

More glorious Tunestep for you this week - and now i'm up to three mixes of the stuff I think I can definitely afford to start calling it "a series".

I am totally blown away by the opener on this one - Disclosure has nailed it with this remix and I reckon it could easily hold out to be one of the tunes of 2012. Amazing stuff. I'm also pleased I managed to wedge the VIP take of Monky's "Drunkerdz" into a mix too - he's a top producer and criminally overlooked at present. You can grab the original cut of Drunkerdz off the Brownswood Electric 2 compilation.

Heads down, skank on...

52M-012: Eclectronica Pt.2

It's another delve into the electronica crates this week with a selection that starts off all moody dubby halftimey bassy, and eventually shifts up a gear to encompass a bit of a future funk, big beat and shouty set of finishers. Definitely a few nappy-fillers here, so make sure you're wearing sturdy strides.

52M-009: Future Funk 2

It's been far too long since my last Future Funk mix and, with crippling popular demand* for another one, I finally pulled my finger out and sorted it this weekend.

The theme here is modern takes on funk: so there's everything from the sublime and soulful (Buscrates, Electric Wire Hustle, Blackpocket) to bassy neck-snappers (Leonard DStroy, Lopez) via out-and-out nu-funk gems (Darkhouse Fam, Max Butter, B.Bravo) and leftfield electro-wonk (Salva, Funkineven).

It's all over the place stylistically but that's kind of the point. Strap yourself in and get your funk on...

* two people.

52M-002: TuneStep Vol.2

A lengthier mix this week, and for the second in this series I thought i'd seize the opportunity to offer up a second mix in my TuneStep series (because it *will* be a series, haha).

The driving force behind these mixes is "tuneful 2-step". So y'know: deep, slightly off-kilter garage/house/dubstep beats. To be completely honest I wouldn't want to try and nail individual categories on some of these records. Life's too short but hopefully there's a consistent feel.

Apologies in advance for the volume cut-outs/annoyances at certain points - a channel fader on my mixer is starting to give up the good fight and it's going to cost me nuff dollarz to replace it so we'll see how I get around that (or not) in the next few weeks. Good start eh? ;)
