James Johnston - Consumer EP

Morning all. Something super deep to ease you into your day. James Johnston yet again defying categorisation with a track that reminds of the the sort of stuff Ian O'Brien & Russ Gabriel used to put out. Jazz tinged, Detroit influenced deep house music of a very high quality. Very limited numbers on this vinyl only release so head on over to Juno - http://www.juno.co.uk/ppps/products/483710-01.htm

Esther Philips - All The Way Down (Leftside Wobble KGS Rework)

One of the first edits I put out on vinyl is being given a digital release by Kojak Giant Sounds in the coming weeks so I took the chance to reinterpret my original edit and give it a dirty, bumping new coat of paint.

Completely restructured the percussion and fuzzed up the bass to create a version that works just as well on house floors as well as funk fuelled disco ones. Definitely on tonights set list at Eclectic Discotech in Brighton.

Escort Remixed Compilation

Finally in store 18 months after I first produced it and part of an ace package of remixes that includes a number of other unreleased (or previously vinyl only) gems. Other highlights for me include both Greg Wilson's & Ewan Pearson's very different takes on 'Cocaine Blues', the two takes of 'Caméleon Chameleon', a stunning instrumental version of 'Forever' and Max Essa's great take on their first release 'Starlight'.

A quick thanks to both the Bionic crew & Dean 'Sunshine' Smith for inviting me play at their wonderful events last weekend. Onwards now to this Friday where I'll be playing alongside NYC's Nancy Whang (DFA Records) - so looking forward to her twisted box of tricks! - d.pr/hVmy

Love a bank holiday party on the coast in Brighton, and with Soul of Man & Journey's by DJ's Jay Chappell on the bill too, this should be a rather special one...
