Second wave is here, so back with weekly mixes. Invited a buddy of mine to play some tunes at our place a few weeks ago. The set went a bit long, over 8 hours. Here’s a snippet of the set that’s more easily digestible. Had a lot of fun. No tracklist, sorry. We played a lot of vinyl, so just going through the history in Rekordbox was not an option.

    Homegrove Just got around to finishing this. Your best yet imo. I’ll be nicking a few tracks for sure. 😅

        New ambient/ down tempo/ chill out mix I did last night. If I did it again today I might edit the tracklist, but there is a beauty in a mix done in one take. Especially one like this, I usually work them to death, sometimes over weeks, trying to make the programming perfect.

        1 Kasper Bjørke Quartet - Line Of Life (Prologue)
        2 Albrecht La’Brooy - Daybreak
        3 Secret Circuit - The Hostess
        4 Brian Eno, Roger Eno - Spring Frost
        5 Coil - Triple Sun
        6 The Flashbulb - The Fear Of Vision
        7 Anne Müller - Nummer 2
        8 Zola Jesus - Changes
        9 Angel Olsen - All Mirrors
        10 Low - Congregation
        11 Marconi Union/ Jah Wobble - Wealth
        12 Lake Turner - Videosphere
        13 Weval - Days
        14 Bowery Electric - Floating World
        15 Sevdaliza - Darkest Hour
        16 Rob Lewis - Pines
        17 Rafael Anton Irisarri - RH NEGATIVE

          Will give your ambient mix a whirl next week H.

          Hold tight for feedback!

          Homegrove Hanners- lovely stuff - are you mixing in/near key on vinyl and how are you prepping that - are you listening to each track and working out which key it is in or just going with the flow ?

          Love the Barbarella btw!

              baggers44 completely by the seat of our pants that one. As you can tell by the way I mix Trisco - Musak in. Did not go well that transition. 😂

                  Homegrove I thought baggers was talking about the ambient mix. “What the fuck is Trisco - Musak doing in an amient mix?!” 😅

                      Shows no one here listened to the back to back because I’m sure someone would’ve mentioned the travesty that is the way I slam it in, and that I played it in the first place. Without this board I would have never picked the vinyl from my collection when getting records together for the b2b. 😃

                      SM001 i’m sure anyone could find a spot for it in any mix really even though it sounds like the countdown clock! i was on about the vinyl - i have started on the vinyl again - it is as hard as i remember it - the thing is everything takes bloody ages and you cant see the bits to transition in - you have to listen to it and then work backwards . easy to see why everyone can be a DJ with the new equipment - with the vinyl the train crash is lurking around every corner.

                          baggers44 All part of the fun. I’ve found it’s like riding the bike for me. Only difference is you have to never trust a transition, it can start to drift at any second.

                            Do most kids now learn how do DJ on CDJ’s? I suppose they do. I’d imagine it’s like learning how to drive in a manual car.

                              SM001 they must i suppose - decks are quite expensive. but a superb way to learn if you can manage the technical skills - which for me is really quite hard - today managed 4 tracks before nudged one the wrong way and it sounded like several pans tumbling down the stairs!

                                  baggers44 I kinda miss the feeling of being 75mins into a vinyl mix you’re recording on cassette tape only to balls up the penultimate transition and have to start over again. 😅 For the 5th time. 🤣

                                      baggers44 with the vinyl the train crash is lurking around every corner.

                                      Bang on. That feeling you get when all is going well and it starts to drift out.
