Not amazing or anything, but gives a decent idea of what can be done with the thing. We were also discussing (to belatedly cite the quotes in my last post) whether or not some of the tracks had been 8-bit compressed afterwards, which was inconclusive. You can grab the comp and the mix of the …

New and Old: January 18,1999
This was my first recorded mix that I was really happy with. It covers some deep house, slower Detroit house, Detroit and European techno. Originally recorded on January 18,1999. Download here. Tracklist Theo Parrish – Sweet Sticky [PeaceFrog] Urban Tribe – D2000 [Mo' Wax] Paperclip People – 4 My Peepz [Planet E] D.S.L. – Soothe …
Smooth ‘n Rough: Summer ’99
This is a mix I recorded some time in the Summer of ’99. Some of it’s a bit speedy, as many of my mixes at the time were. I reckon that’s an inevitable consequence of mixing with pitched decks (when you increase the range to +/-16). It was also pretty crucial to teaching me how …
Noise on KRUI: 15 February 1997
This is another one coming sort-of-by-request, as a recent thread about, “trip hop”, elsewhere on the internets bumped these mixes to the top of the archive pile. But before I get in to the detail I have to apologise for a few mixes on these tapes where I seem to think I can scratch, and …
Bleep NYE 2002
This one’s getting wheeled out by request of Rob Taylor, although I reckon the memories of the night will be better than the experience of listening to it today. The beginning is drift-y (to be kind) and the rest has levels all over, etc. All that said, it was my first proper set in London …
Sold Volume II
Not sure exactly when I recorded this, but I suspect it was some time between ’97-’99. It was all mixed from CD to minidisc, although there isn’t a great deal of mixing on this installment. I did three Sold mixes, each of which was a collection of tracks from CDs that I didn’t feel I …

For quite a few years I’ve been promising to unearth my mix archives. Basically, the mixes on this site have never really stretched back before 1999 (unless some of you recall the Summer in Seattle mix from ’97, which once lived here in hideously low quality Real Audio). For the most part this has never …
Unwound
This was the fourth mix I did last month but I figured I’d give my bandwidth and your ears a rest while figuring out if it’s good enough to post. There’s rather a few messes, but I’m getting too old to be re-doing two hour mixes. I’ve listened to it about 10 times and haven’t …
33 1/3 +3
My first Traktor Scratch mix. Mostly stuff that’s been gathering dust in my CD collection, which is the main reason I’ve got one of these digital file playing thingys at my disposal now. Still struggling a bit with not being able to look at a record to determine when the track is going to end, …
New Carts II
Another imaginatively titled mix from a Sunday with new cartirdges. A bit broader than the last one. Very sorry about the hideous mix into Jus-Ed and Kevin James. Get it here. Tracklist Mouse On Mars – Hallo [Rough Trade] Burial – Night Bus [Hyperdub] Flying Lotus – Pet Monster Shotglass [Plug Research] Dimlite – The …
