Facebook.

I think they're a fairly new station. They got Dubplate Borris on the roster too but I haven't heard of any of the other DJs on there before. Been pretty good whenever I've bothered to tune in though.

Yeah they don't seem to have a lot of followers/likers/whathaveyou. Will keep an eye on them, always happy to find new people pushing the sound

edit: sound's a bit choppy isn't it?

sounds ok to me, you getting drop outs?. He's been killing it with some Devine Collective dubs the last few. Pretty relentless fast mixing style...I like it. I think he said he's got another show on Fridays 8-10 where he just plays hard instrumental stuff, I'll definitely be checking that out. I'm recording so I'll up this show for you all at some point, see what you think.

It was fine at first but then I started getting these odd drop outs every few seconds or so, kind of sounded like a cd skipping. Minor nuisance at first, which got gradually more annoying.

Although props definitely go out to this guy's mixing, seemed so effortless. And fun

Feelin' this.

Bloody hell, the bassline on 'Hell of House' once it drops is a killer. :D
Carnao is def doing some of the most interesting stuff at the 'uk deep house' end of things.

Thanks for the heads-up on the new radio station Benny, will try and check some shows out. Think I need to start listening to Nasty FM more than I do as well.

Obligatory Soundcloud-dump post from me -

Not always the biggest fan of R1 Ryders but both mixes of this are quite good I reckon:

And this new bit from Illmana is absolute flames, as Asbo might say:
Screwface business, reminds me a bit of old stuff like the DJ SS remix of Nightstalker.

Collab between Miss Fire and DJ Naughty:
Not 100% made my mind up on this yet but it's certainly striking.

No more of these from me today, promise. :)

Not pimped out the radio show properly for a while so might as well give it a shot - will be live on http://www.piraterevival.co.uk/forum/cmps_index.php
from 8 - 10 pm tonight. Numerous streaming options via that page. Will be playing music from Lil Silva, Champion, Mellow Bee, Miss Fire, T Williams, Auntie Flo, Graham Bond, Naughty Raver, Bare Bones, Mr Tickle, Trizzy, Doc Daneeka, Funkystepz and a bunch of other people I haven't made my mind about yet.
There's a shoutbox on the main page of the site but I think you have to be a site member to post on it - so if you want to get in contact with me for shouts/reloads/comments/abuse etc your best option is to get at me on twitter at @Mr_Andy_M. I can't record these so you either lock in life or you don't get to hear it, simple as that I'm afraid.

About that Naughty/Fire track: I was really looking forward to the collab after she announced it but when I first heard the track I was kind of overwhelmed, and not in a good way. It started sounding a bit more coherent by the second listen but I'm still not very sure about it. I LOVE the vocal, but I feel like it needs more air to breathe, right now the whole thing seems a bit congested. At one point it almost sounds like somebody's trying to mix in Goosebumps

oh yeah and Tim F posted this on ILX yesterday: http://www.hulkshare.com/h51ggljdilv2 It's that Playground track with Fuzzy Logik on the buttons. Only a 192, but it has definitely convinced me to get the full quality track whenever that gets released. Big tune

that Illmana tune's great, not feeling the vocal on that Ruff Ryders at all.
Ruff Ryders are like FACT mag funky generally though very MOR

Yeah, other than 'Ricochet' I don't like R1 Ryders at all. Its just 'funkstep' innit, right down to the 140 tempos, and therefore should be stamped out.

I won't be able to tune in (going to see Ill Blu!) but would be nice if someone recorded madfingers on Feeling Mandy FM 8-10pm this Friday, I've a feeling it'll be good.

Was fun tuning in, Andy, had to miss the first hour because of the Marcus Nasty show. Was thinking about ripping that Champion track from Cameo's show but he already dun it for me :)

Tonight was a fun one, really glad you tuned in Rivero.
I totally hear what people are saying about R1 Ryders, prob about half of there stuff doesn't really click with me, but for whatever reason I liked that vocal, esp the 'Pack Your Bags Refix' of it. Agree with Ory about Karni4 being one of their stronger ones too.
Glad people are feeling that new Illmana anyway.

I had a wee listen for a while too Andy. Good round up of recent stuff, nice one. Love that Paul Woolford mix of heartbeat, first time I'd heard it. I'm a big fan of the original mix actually. Never liked the Mosca mix that everyone spunked about (predictably enough).

Yeah 'congested' is a good word for it I think, there's so much squeezed into it and I'm not sure if it all fits together, may grow on me though. Does seem to have the Goosebumps bassline in there towards the end.
Is that download for Playground legit? Not saying that to wag the finger at you/Tim, just don't want to start using it on radio/in mixes and then get someone moaning at me later on. Big tune anyway obv, love that cheeky synth line that runs behind the chorus.
About to give that new Champion one a listen now. :D

Cheers mate. My mixing always goes to pot in the second half of these as I get pressed to fit everything in before 10, but I have so much fun doing them, it's daft really. :)
