Warped Rhythms (a trip through 25 years of Warp Records)

Warped Rhythms (A trip through 25 years of Warp Records) by Leftside Wobble on Mixcloud

Includes tracks from Boards of Canada, The Sabres of Paradise, Red Snapper, Jake Slazenger, Nightmares On Wax, Jamie Lidell, Link, Leila, Speedy J, LFO, Kenny Larkin, Luke Vibert, !!!, CSS, AFX and B12. As you'd expect from Warp Records it's a heady mix of styles and genres but it's held together by a common 'off kilter' attitude. 

A few of the tracks originally appeared on the Aphex Twins Rephlex imprint but they're by artists that have a long history with Warp (including RDJ himself).

White Light Mix - update

White Light 84 - Leftside Wobble by White Light Mixes on Mixcloud

Found out yesterday that this mix for White Light Mixes has been the most popular on their Mixcloud page over the last 12 months. Perfect selection to ease sore heads into Sunday. Look out for their 100th mix in May which will feature exclusive tracks from a selection of artists that have featured in the series so far including Leo Zero, Black Van, Maxxi Soundsystem, Golden Bug, In Flagranti, Tronik Youth, DJ ROCCA (formerly Ajello), The Revenge & of course, there'll be a LW exclusive included too...

Leftside Classics

With my new Acid Soul night starting on April 11th in London at Trapeze (the old East Village) I thought the time was right to put together a retrospective featuring some of the tracks that have meant the most to me over the last five years or so.

These are the tracks that somehow always find a way back into my sets, tracks that rise above the transient and tracks that defy limiting genre pigeonholes. My sets have always been about joining dots, celebrating the eclectic and supporting those tracks that exist in the rich hinterland between dub, funk, disco and house. Hopefully this retrospective captures that overriding ethos.

I've included a small selection of unreleased LW bits and a few exclusive versions of well known staples to keep things pushing forward too.

As ever hope you enjoy. x

p.s. Be sure to check out some of the other mixes on the Clandestino podcast page. The Andrew Weatherall/Sean Johnston one is particularly tasty.
