Its been a while since our last post mainly due to the fact that we have been so busy fulfilling orders from our discogs shop! However we thought that it was about time that we posted up links to new mixes that we have tracked down and are really feeling at the moment.
There seems to be so much good new music out at the moment with lots of producers giving away tracks and mixes for free in order to promote their music. It also seems that the old barriers between generes are truly being erroded with dj's throwing in a mixture of absolutely everything into their sets.
This MJ Cole mix is an example of the errosion of these barriers. Cole plays a mixture of Dubstep, UK Garage, House and a few bits in between, 10 years ago this just would not have happened. A few weeks ago we heard drum and bass legend Fabio make exactly this point on his Radio 1 show. He said that we had now got to the stage where kids were listening to the likes of Kasabian in the day and then going to drum & bass raves at night, this can only be healthy for the music scene as a whole and listening to varied DJ sets which don't just consist of one genre makes the set far more interesting. That isn't to say however that the oldskool classic drum & bass and UK Garage sets aren't still worth listening to, its just that music always need to evolve and these new varied DJ sets are part of the evolution of modern underground dance music.
Anyway enough of our ramblings, click the link below to be taken to Cole's soundcloud page (which is well worth bookmarking by the way) and download the mix for FREE!
