Also, if there's anyone reading this at a loose end at new years, be sure to consider a little shindig I'm organising in a small art gallery space in Brixton with fellow good guys Jitterbug (of Uzuri records fame), Nick Craddock (of tip-top techno types Sud) and my good buddy Slim (former resident of Brixton's Risky Disco). Here's some vague details:

Lunar Disko Records presents

House Expressions...

Side_A
Lerosa - Longing
Mark du Mosch - Blessings

Side_AA
Meschi - Concrete Island
Automatic Tasty - Welcome Ohm Luv

LDR returns with the labels first various artists release, four house expressions - from four cutting edge producers.

Dublin based Italian producer, Lerosa opens the EP with 'Longing'...a warm, proficiently produced electronic house cut as always from the 'adopted Dubliner'. Smooth percussion and synth sounds layered and arranged to perfection while still keeping that free-flowing Lerosa style.

Rotterdam's Mark du Mosch delivers an uplifting house / techno influenced workout 'Blessings'. Refined percussion and wonderful space-synth soundscapes alongside a driving bassline that will get the dancefloor moving for sure!

Glaswegian Meschi debuts with 'Concrete Island' , the London based producer delivers a blissful deep house track. A laidback rhythmical production that just gets better and better throughout, with clever arrangements of elements including a classic voice sample and a soothing and delicate piano line.

Wicklow's Automatic Tasty concludes the EP with another killer analogue jam, 707 percussion, a Railway Raver-esque bassline, and AT's trademark pads and synth melodies combine to make 'Welcome Ohm Luv' another classic from the machines of Mr.Tasty.

Released by: Lunar Disko Records

Pretty diverse music - ambient, sound track music, reggae, disco, hungarian electro, disco, library music, house...

Jonny5 - Ice Flow Mix

2010-02-01T08:10:00.000-08:00

Those all round good guys Juju & Jordash are hosting a new mix from me over at their website Their mix section has some great mixes from them and also some choice guests.

Jonny5 - Ice Flow Mix

This mix, like a few of my more out there mixes, came about after I'd been having a few nights of strange vivid dreams.

One night it seemed like I had one dream that lasted the whole night. Initially I was on the run from a motorcycle gang and the police after an act of self defence led to the killing of a member of the gang. As it been snowing outside for a few days the dream seemed to be set in the snow in the marshes close to the Suffolk town of Beccles. The dream then changed to 5 or 10 years later where I had been in hiding - but my whereabouts got found out by the police, I then had to make yet another gettaway. The dreams then progressed into the future where I would have to keep making different escapes from either the police or the gang who also still held a grudge. 'Running' by the hugarian musician Masik Janos seemed like a perfect soundtrack to all this wierdness.

Albion - Druids & Droids Mix

2010-01-25T01:47:00.001-08:00

Last June, Albion came over from Sweden and played for us at our last Dream Machine party. He played some great music as you'd expect if you've been keeping up with his mixes over the years on CBS and now Intergalactic FM. Unfortunately it was probably our lowest attended party ever, but there you go.

Anyway, he's been kind enough to provide us with an exclusive mix, and it's a beauty. It's as if techno was invented in 1976 somewhere near Stonehenge, rather than in 80s Detroit like they'd all have us believe

Albion - Druids & Droids

Watch out for a compilation album he's got coming out soon. It's bound to have some gems on it.

walt & dave - the depth ep - vigilante records detroit 1995

2009-09-22T09:28:00.000-07:00

on a visit to fat cat records in 1995, the record of the week was walt and dave - the depth ep on vigilante records. this record blew me away then and still does. during this very productive period for detroit techno and house this release stood out from the others due to its unique sound - quite raw and lofi but immensely deep and beautiful. it was produced by walt jones and dave peoples and was their first duo production, the second release dimensional planes was more of their unique sound and is also a killer. they recorded many different solo projects, most are essential. check out the autonomy by the specialist on making madd records, reflection by walt j on dow and also the walt j project on professional records.

two long gone detroit artists who produced some stunning and unique detroit techno and house.
