See that image? That’s the image you need to burn into your brain when you listen to this mix. Imagine being there, in the club, in the crowd, the music is pounding, the mood is infectious, it’s tune! after tune! after tune! That’s what I’m going for with this mix, especially in the last 30 minutes. There are some full-on euphoric tracks in this mix, listen out for ‘Deeper Love’ by Dimitri Vegas & Like Mike and ‘I’m in Love’ by Alex Gaudino as well as the summer sound of ‘Sunshine In My Heart’ by Denis The Menace. Here’s the tracklisting….

Fancy some free house music? Well, highly respected soulful house producer Todd Edwards has a treat for you. Roughly a week ago Todd announced via Twitter that he was giving away a new ‘out of print’ remix every week on his soundcloud page. True to his word Todd has posted three pages worth of quality house tracks, all available for download, good on yer Todd. Here’s some nuggets that I’ve enjoyed listening to…

First up, some Jamiroquai. Regular visitors will be familiar with the Jamiroquai mix I made some time ago, this remix certainly chimed with me. A solid production.

“Electric Mistress” Jamiroquai (Todd-if-fied mix) by Todd-Edwards

Next is a track I know I have tucked away somewhere in my vinyl collection and I can’t believe I’ve shunned it all this time. From it’s shuffling disco rhythm intro to it’s soulful horns and Todd’s typical vocal cut-up style this is a perfect summer house track. Over 10 years old and still sounding fresh.

“Jump To My Beat” Wildchild (Todd Edwards remix) by Todd-Edwards

Finally, one of Todd’s finest remixes. It’s almost impossible to take such a universally recognised club track and turn into something fresh and new. Todd, however, makes it look easy.

“Show Me Love” Robin S. (Todd Edwards remix) by Todd-Edwards

Thank you Todd for making these lost productions available again and for FREE. You can find all of Todd’s uploads at his Soundcloud page, here.

May’s House mix is now online and quite simply it is the best mix we’ve hosted here yet. There are some huge tunes for the summer tucked away in here as well as some quality club tracks.

From this mix I love the tracks by Dave Spoon, Tim Berg, Booka Shade, Dirty South and the huge ‘Number One’ by The Swedish House Mafia. That said, all the tracks here are excellent.

Do check it out,  get stuck in and share it with your friends. Cheers, Paul.

Edit : I guess I should mention that the second track on this mix is very much NSFW thanks to cheeky old Lil Jon and LMFAO dropping the F-Bomb all over the place. The scamps!

There seems to be some issues with getting the streaming media player to work, you can still download mixes and tracks but streaming them over the internet isn’t working right now. I’m working on it, hopefully it’ll be fixed soon.
UPDATE : Looks like I’ve sorted it, we now have a new animated media player. Hope it works, drop me a comment if you get any trouble.
Cheers, Paul

Aaaaah Technotronic. Back in 1989 when ‘Pump Up The Jam’ was first released, it really struck a chord with me, I wasn’t even in my teens yet and back then I knew I loved club music . These days the track is something of a guilty pleasure, a hark back to younger days from long ago (sigh). There’s been a fair few remixes over the years, Kurd Maverick’s remixes became a Miami WMC club hit a few years back although I always slightly preferred the remixes by The Sol Brothers back in 1996. Now we have ‘Da Fresh’ with a new bootleg that goes for that Miami sound jugular, check it out in the player below.

This is so hot off the press I haven’t even listened to it myself yet. Obviously I heard this mix when I made it but I usually like to spend a day checking over a new mix to make sure it’s up to scratch before I upload it for you all. I seem to be struggling for time this month so you’ll have to listen to it warts n’all (I hope that’s not the case). This month’s mix starts off with a hint of dirty disco via Junkie XL’s remix of Cooler Couler by Crookers. From there we dip into some bouncy synth house, some dutch flavoured bangers and wind up with a progressive, vocal tinged groove till the end credits.

Favourite tunes for this mix include Crookers, Chicane, Miike Snow, Mousse T and Chris Lake with Michael Woods. Hope you enjoy it. Don’t forget to pass it on via the share links at the bottom of this post.

When the Apple iPad was unveiled back in January the question on everyone’s lips was “Who is it aimed at?”. Having seen the new images of Mixr, a new turntable app from Noe Ruiz and Ben Stalhood II it’s possible that one answer could be ‘DJ’s’.

According to Noe & Ben ..

With Mixr, causal mixing and professional mixing merge to become a new form of mixng your music. Features core functionality, cross-fading, equalizing, cue, drag & drop tracks, and full effects such as delays and auto filter. Mixr gives you a DJ experience unlike anything you’ve ever touched before.

So is it a fun app or one aimed at the serious professional? It certainly looks nice and seeing a DJ flexing an iPad could definitely be more visually arresting than watching them stare at a laptop. Yet I have a couple questions. One is sound quality, can the iPad put out a decent quality sound fit for a large sound system? How will it output two audio signals (one for main output, the other for cueing). The other question is storage. The biggest sized iPad weighs in at 64GB, will this be enough for DJ’s who want to have a sizeable collection on their hands?

According to their website the launch date is planned for June with a beta test program proposed for May. Looks like we’ll have to wait till then before we find out anything else.

Hey hey. I’ve just got home after DJing at Aruba in Bournemouth, another superb night in the bag! While the buzz wears off and I relax with a whiskey and coke I figured I’d quickly post about a charity gig that I have been booked for. It’s been organised by Bournemouth University and is taking place at The Old Firestation in Holdenhurst Road. It’s only £3 a ticket and all proceeds go to the ‘Round Table Children’s Wish’ charity.

Doors open at 10pm, my set starts at 11:30pm and it’ll be a set of quality house music, there’s a good line-up of DJ’s booked so it promises to be a great night.
