Top 5 TracksKris Menace - Steamroller
His new track on his own imprint Compuphonic big deep smoke machine sampled French house – it’s massive, mark my words!
Armand Van Helden - J'Taime - Cagedbaby Mix on Southern Fried
Me on the minimal tip - never done it before, but it came out really well. It’s his new single on Southern Fried.
Compuphonic - Antimatter on Turbo Records
I really like it - sweepy major chords, it’s very uplifting.
Cagedbaby - Hello There- Radioslave Mix
On Southern Fried – it’s become a bit of a classic on the minimal scene. I still hear it in Ibiza on the space terrace, DC10 and Cocoon. It’s 8 minutes of deep nonsense that never fails to delight.
Dubfire - Ribcage
Well anything by Dubfire is killing it at the moment! Half of deep dish, this guy is on fire – it’s not to everyone’s taste but it blows me away every time. I love the Meat Katies /Ramirez Arrowhead mix, too. Fog horns anyone?
Tracks to…Start the nightDifficult to pick - I change it so often. I've been starting my cover of Olivia Newton John’s ‘Lets Get Physical’ - proper party tune, deep tough electro, sounds a bit Tiga Boys Noise-esque. It always gets the floor packed and is a classic tune anyway.
End the nightTo end the night, one of the classics like Earth Wind and Fires ‘September.’ It came back to my attention - what an amazing song! It was when I heard it on the Babel soundtrack. What a band.
