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).
Extra Long Mix: 08-01-05january08full.mp3. File Size is 310.2 mb, encoded at 192kpbs, runtime is 3:45:52
Or in three parts:

Here’s a little bonus, half-hour, Soul-Jazz-Funk-Disco mix.

Here’s another long-ish mix with a range of different styles, starting off around 100bpm working up to over 120 bpm. There are one or two sketchy segues in there but I don’t think I’ll get a chance to re-record it over the next week or so so I thought I’d put it up as is.

I thought I’d try something different. This one is over twice as long as the usual mixes (which means it won’t fit on one cd - sorry). The idea was to try and get a lot of different types of stuff on it. Soul, Jazz, Funk, House, Broken, Latin, Afro-beat, Disco, Balearic. It’s a bit of an epic in more ways than one. I actually recorded (or thought I recorded) it on Monday night but the file didn’t save properly to my computer (had to happen for the really long mix, didn’t it) so after abandoning the third rescue attempt, I went ahead and re-recorded the whole thing last night in the same sequence, adding in one extra track (04.).

This one is a bit sketchy in places but I think it turned out more or less alright. The idea was a selection of Soul, Jazz & Funk at around 100bpm or so. It’s all at that tempo except for the middle section of Chameleon which speeds up to around 120 (and includes that famous Ballistic Brothers’ sample) and the end of Windy C.
