This is lovely. The Parliament tune is HUGE.

Also, I think the addition of echo works beautifully. Something to do with the echo framing what preceded it.


I'm going to cane this. Thanks.

Ah, fantastic, cheers Lichen!

I did a little dub treatment of some 'Black Jack Johnson'-sessions Davis in my Blogariddims (No. 6? 7?). . . keen to hear someone who actually knows how to do it proper.

Fantastic mix Paul. Did a little thing on my blog about it but your WordPress wouldn't let me comment. Called me 'spam' (and a 'filthy ****' which I thought was a bit much)

hey Droid. sorry been a loser with this awesome thing.

so i got this new mix done, find it here:

http://differentwaters.blogspot.com/2007/04/ablaze-global-boom-boom-mix.html

what do i have to do to get it onto this pwodkast 'ting? i noticed that the other sessions in the series don't start with the ID? can you use this as is?

ok just realized that most or all of them do start with the ID. I'll try to get that in there somehow... just started using live - packed up my turntables and mic...

Soul Jazz will be releasing the England Story mix later in 2007, official style with liner notes and everything.

How great is that?

Very great indeed!

Big up Heatwave!

Just saw this being automatically downloaded via itunes.

Looks absolutely fascinating - the quality of these has been exemplary - loved the Miles inspired one and thought Droid's last could have been given more a bit more recognition.

Also agree with all the praise for Heatwave's England Story. I thought that Heatwave should have been given the job of putting together an alternative Soul Brittania documentary to counteract a rather dull job done by BBC4.

Alright, another by Rambler. Can't wait. . .

Been sleeping on some of the recent mixes, but I want to add my support for Droid's and Paul's latest ones.

Thanks for the kind words! Glad the Miles one didn't totally non-plus everyone.

I LOVED the droid one, probably the best ragga mix of the year so far.

Of course I loved John's too - though I'd love the chance to mix those tunes myself!

There's the usual post-Beltane rush of great new music at the moment - the FWD sets, a heap of Blogariddims, Plastician's new mix, a deluge of sets from Dubstep Changed My Life at Streamizm (everyone's raving about the Reso vs Rusko one - check out the video, it's MENTAL).

I'm putting all my energy into finishing dubstep sufferah 3 before starting anything new - getting there, should be up for solstice, and it looks like I'll have a lot more time this week than I thought I would.

Big up rambler for this mix - there isn't another mix series in the world that would have a tracklisting like that!

the miles davis mix is blooooody brilliant, gorgeous space perfect for sitting in the dark. Will listen to the new rambler one tomorrow, greatly looking forward to it.

EDIT: I just cant get over how good this mix is, its like the musical representation of a perfect psychic state.

Thanks fella - that's the inspirational nature of Miles for you! When you edit the trax to keep the focus firmly on him, and cut all the best tunes together, the depth of Miles' vision just wallops you.

Many hours of work went into it too, which helps!

how was it edited and mixed? ableton?

i was jusssssst enjoying the heatwave england story mix, and what do you know? When i look at my itunes, a beautiful new heatwave mix being downloaded! Looking forward to it.
