    I have a new mix for this month, starting out with some 90bpm beats, some boogie, balearic, deep house, acid, techno, broken beats and finishing off at 140bpm/70bpm. Did this one at 320 again which explains the large file size. I’ll do a 192 version for those with slower connections/limited storage space.

    Bit later than planned, here’s a new mix. I’d been working on this for a few weeks but just hadn’t managed to find the time to record it until now. It’s another epic mix, the longest one so far with 47 or so tunes over three and three quarter hours and goes from 93 bpm up to 140 bpm with a mix of various styles and of old and new. If the 310 mb file is too big to download in one go you can also download it in three parts (each of which can work as a standalone mix).

    I’ve a bit of a backlog of tunes – both new and old – that I’ve been planning to include in mixes so here’s the first attempt to ease the backlog. This one started out as part of a longer planned mix but I ruthlessly edited it down to around an hour. It starts off quite deep and then picks up a bit in the second half.

    Ok, as promised, here’s the “epic” mix I intended to record earlier in the week. Like the 32 Tune mix, this is another double length mix, also with 32 tunes (assuming both sides of the Alice Russell 7″ count as two separate tunes) and also with a range of different type of stuff on it, but this one has less of the Soul and Balearic and a bit more of the Funk and Afro-Beat. There are one or two sketchy moments, but not bad enough to make me want to go back and re-record the whole thing again!
