How many shows in June?!? No wonder I’ve been feeling like a busy bunny…
Another last minute cover job this one, so just over an hour, but that means you could burn it onto a CD if you so desired
We start with some very tasty progressive breaks with the odd psy-tech twist, moving into techno, a slice of progressive trance, some laidback tech-house, and finishing on an absolute classic slice of evocative prog breaks from the mighty Fluke.

Evidently the 4-hour stint on BrapFM wasn’t enough, cos the next day I jumped on to cover for Wax Equestrian on NSB! Not the full 2 hours this time, by the time we’d played paper-scissors-stone to decide who was going to cover… Greetz to the chatters

I signed up for an extra BrapFM show this month and decided to spin some chillout in preparation for Sunday’s gig. But then found out that the DJ after my show needed cover. I said I’d carry on for a bit and switch the archives on when I got bored. I didn’t get bored!
So what we have here are 2 hours of chillout and laidback electronica, followed by 2 hours of my usual BrapFM mashup of breaks, techno, progressive house, psytrance etc.
For your convenience I’ve split the archive into these two discrete sections
Massive shouts to all those who passed through the chatroom at various points during this marathon session, you kept me going
I’ll give you the download links together first, then with the tracklists below.

Covering the Mobius Trip once again, we started with some deep and epic prog-electro-psy breaks for the first hour or so, gradually beefing it up into full-fat electrobreaks and a dose of proper psy-side psybreaks, with Doctor Who to finish, and why not? Wicked promo action from V.I.M.Records too – congrats to Disco Patrick who won a stack of V.I.M promo CDs in our competition (and shouts of course to Pale Penguin from V.I.M for the goods themselves!)

EDIT: Added another gig on the 28th!
First up, I’m on the bill for the next Psychedelic Saturday at The Hobbit in Southampton on Sat 13th June. Now, whether I’m actually playing or not currently depends on getting a babysitter, so it’s not definite yet but hopefully… Anyone who’s been to one of these before knows it’s one of the Hobbit’s most popular and out-there parties so even if I don’t make it, don’t miss it!
I’m once again covering for Ali Rutt on The Mobius Trip on NSBRadio next Mon 15th June from 7pm UK time, spinning the cream of the crop of new releases and scorchio promos from the world of psy-tech-electro-breaks.
The following week, Mon 22nd June I’m doing an extra Void Radio slot over on Brap FM from 8pm. You know what to expect by now… the unexpected!
On Sun 28th June I’ll be playing a downtempo and chillout set for a change at That Chilled Night @ Ad Hoc, High St, Southampton. The evening runs from 3pm to 1am and promises to be a great chilled wind-down to the weekend, and it’s only a quid before 9pm so get down early!
Finally, on Sat 4th July I’m back at The Hobbit for the next Void vs Brap all-dayer in aid of Oxfam. It runs 1pm to 1am and I’m playing back2back with the aforementioned Mr Rutt, alongside sackloads of quality DJ talent playing everything from dubstep to dnb, house to techno. Void parties always rock so put it in your diary now!

Well a month has gone by since the last show, which feels like ages so I’m raring to go for tomorrow’s installment of Void Radio on http://brap.fm from 8pm UK time. It’s almost my birthday so I’ll be having a few beers and spinning some classic house/trance/techno alongside the absolute cream of the month’s new releases in epic breaks and chunky progtech. I do hope you can join in the celebration
Tune in: http://212.72.165.26:9418/listen.pls
Chatroom: http://www.brap.fm/forums/ircchat/brapchat.html
While I’m here, a quick heads up about some gigs of interest in the Southampton area. First up on Saturday 13th June that bastion of fluorescent hedonism PSYCHEDELIC SATURDAY returns to the Hobbit. I will hopefully be playing, dependent on babysitter so TBC….
I am however definitely on the bill for the latest installment of the now legendary VOID VS BRAP charity alldayers in aid of Oxfam, on Sat 4th July and also at The Hobbit. Loads of great DJs lined up for this (check the flyers here) and these parties are always off the hook so save that date, more details to follow.
Hopefully see you in the chatroom tomorrow!

Well that was a most enjoyable way to round off a wicked weekend! We kicked off with a load of chunky ‘n’ squelchy techno, tech-house and progressive, before moving into breaks of the phat, techy and progressive flavours for the second hour, and finishing on some phar-out psybreaks. Special shouts to mike, jels and tomski in the chat for all the positive vibes, glad you enjoyed it and hopefully see you again
Next show: Monday 1st June, 8pm BST, Brap FM – it’s Quextal’s Birthday Bonanza so expect something extra special

If you’ve seen me play out recently, indicated that you’re feeling what I’m doing, and earned a special limited edition Quextal business card for your trouble… hello
I really appreciate the feedback. You’ve inspired me to get on with uploading more studio mixes, so hold tight for those, and in the meantime, hope you enjoy Psylekbreaks.
If you’re around, I’d really love your company on Monday 4th May at 8pm on Brap FM for my regular genre-hopping smorgasbord of electronic delights. Come and say hi in the chatroom
Want a reminder? There are lots of ways to keep in touch, but the easiest is to search for Quextal on Facebook and join the group
Big love xxx

It’s been far too long since I uploaded a studio mix. Partly this is down to increasing numbers of gigs and radio shows which occupy a large part of my time plying the decks these days. But it’s not as if I haven’t been making studio mixes from time to time, I was just never quite happy enough with them to upload.
Well, time for that to change. If there’s one message I’m receiving loud and clear every time I play out, it’s that there are people out there who are desperate to hear the kind of stuff that I play. Whatever that is! And even if I think a mix is flawed (usually because I think the tune selection could have been better rather than any technical error these days), you’d rather have that, than silence.
So here you are. This mix covers a fairly wide selection from across the spectrum of progressive, psychedelic, tech and electro flavoured breakbeats that float my boat. It’s plainly more of a home or car listening CD than the sort of journey I would construct at a club or festival, but it should take you to some interesting places. Enjoy
