To continue the wake for Ali’s PC, I went on a marathon tune shopping binge, so most of tonight’s show was shiny new. And a quality show it was too if I say so myself, which I do. I really can’t be arsed trying to categorise it into tiny subgenres though, so I’ll just say it’s Top Shelf Breaks and leave it at that. Big ups the chatroom crew. Ali’s back next week, even if he has to do the show from my house!

Covering for Ali again tonight as his PC’s broken… I felt in a bit of an experimental mood, so we started with some slower funky stuff, went all epic progressive for a while, then settled into a kind of electro-techfunk-psybreaks circuit for the second hour or so.
Thanks as always to all those who tuned in and the ever-random chatroom crew. Love you all, you mad people.

Many thanks to special guest Cut Freqz for joining me in the studio with some fat vinyl. The first three tracks were mine, then it’s back2back all the way, mixing it up from electro to heavy bassline breaks.

We commenced with some chunky prog house, followed by a bit of electro house. There was plenty of breaks of the tech-, psy- and prog- varieties, we had a bit of progressive psytrance, then finished with some more psybreaks. Thanks all those who tuned in, and special shouts to THP and Shao for keeping the chatroom alive 🙂

Another Monday night covering Ali’s show… with added bonus beats; I played on an extra half hour because the next DJ didn’t turn up. So we went on a bit of a genre hop… progressive breaks, electro-breaks, twisted psy-breaks, tripcore d’n’b, big beat and even some psychill… seemed to go down well anyway 🙂 Cheers for tuning in, see you again soon…

Finally, here are the recordings of my sets from the Void vs Brap Tour in Southampton and Bristol, way back through the mists of time in November 2008. I haven’t listened back to these in full yet, I hope they’re ok!
The Southampton gig was loads of fun, not least because most of the tunes I played I’d bought only a few hours before the gig, so they were almost as new to me as the punters. There was a great atmosphere on the dancefloor for my whole set. So yeah I got carried away and played a really lame remix of What Time Is Love, but these things happen sometimes…
The Bristol gig was an odd one from the DJ’s perspective: inside a pub, mid-afternoon, low volume, speakers in front of the DJ projecting away and no monitors, so basically I couldn’t hear the main mix at all, yet somehow I seem to have pulled off a reasonable quality of mixing; possibly even better than Southampton’s where I occasionally got a bit lost in the moment…
I wasn’t in charge of recording these so they’re only 128k, sorry. But the quality is pretty reasonable.

First show of 2k9 kicked off with some downtempo breaks and then into dark bass’n’bleep techno, rising into chunky progressive territory, emerging into some epic and twisted electro/psy breaks, and closing out with some full-fat drum’n’bass. Fun for all the family!

There’s no show in December; the Void Radio slots will be given over to playbacks of the best bits from the Void vs Brap Tour… hopefully including mine 🙂 I’ll be back in January. Meanwhile, hope to see some of you at the said Tour in Southampton or Bristol…

Previously on NSB I’ve tended to stick to breaks. Tonight though I decided to loosen that rule: while still centred on psy/tech/elek-breaks, I moved freely out to chill, electro-house, and even a bit of progressive trance. I think it paid off, this was definitely my best and most enjoyable NSB show so far, and the chatroom crew seemed to like it too 🙂 Cheers to everyone who tuned in, and thanks to Ali for asking me to cover.
Next show: next Monday, 3rd November, Brap FM.

What we have here is a kind of fat sandwich, featuring a chunky filling of deep and trippy minimal techno and tech-house, surrounded on each side by seedy slices of electro-psy-breaks and tech-funk, and jazzed up with a few bits of salad from selected other genres. Enjoy!
Next shows:
- 27th Oct, 7-9pm, NSB, covering for Ali Rutt.
- 3rd Nov, 8-10pm, BrapFM, my usual Void Radio slot (first Monday of every month).
