This Mix was a bit of a different Musical excursion for me… Memoirs is a big Soundscape of a Mix… An Ambient/Progressive/Nu-Age/Trip-Hop Mix inspired by the Music I used to listen to before I discovered Electronic Dance Music, whilst taking in elements of the more Progressive type of music I listen to now featuring more contemporary tracks by Max Cooper, James Holden, Nathan Fake & Ulrich Schnauss. Inspired by the likes of Pink Floyd, the Orb, FSOL, Mike Oldfield etc, I also took inspiration from the Bladerunner Soundtrack by Vangelis. Very futuristic, quite dreamy, very trippy this Mix Best listened to with the Volume up and the lights switched off… Let the journey begin…(Citizen K)

Label : Toolroom Records

Release Date: March 22nd 2010

__________________________________

If you need a little warm blood pumping through the veins of your dance music, then make sure you pick up Fedde Le Grand’s new ‘Toolroom Knights’, which features a gorgeous selection of cutting edge House, zesty European percussive beats and rolling Tech House.

Having discretely passed from international chart topping success with the ubiquitous ‘Put Your Hands Up for Detroit’ back in 2006, to establishing position as one of the industry’s premier DJ’s, Fedde Le Grand continues to purvey his talent to worldwide dance floors bringing his unique blend of fine House music in all its glorious forms.

Fedde’s first release on Toolroom; ‘Just Trippin’ was a huge anthem, cementing his status within the Toolroom family. Also producing under his moniker F.L.G, which allows Fedde to experiment with a more stripped-back, darker, minimal Tech House sound; he released his double A-sider ‘Amplified’ / ‘Pink Bird’ on Toolroom last year, garnering massive attention on the dark and sweaty dancefloors of the world’s best clubs. It only seemed right that Fedde be next in line for this illustrious series.

Reflecting his world renowned DJ sets, CD1 is mixed under Fedde’s F.L.G. moniker and delivers a stripped back attitude, manifested through the deployment of varied rhythmic and skittering percussive elements. Beginning deep, in a slick and smooth style, with tracks from the likes of Solomun and Ramon Tapia, the mix lays a distinctive groove. Tracks from Noir, Saeed Younan, Joey Negro, Mark Mendes & F.L.G.’s new exclusive for Toolroom; ‘An Old Technique’ are intertwined with flowing Tech House, as F.L.G’s craft fully winds up rolling beats, and sends them marching and stomping into a field of de-tuned vocal stabs and pressure-building peaks.

You will find bouts of light tribalisms and throbbing cuts on CD2, as Fedde Le Grand finds himself on his excursion into more underground tastes; a statement that sits comfortably in the grey and somewhat surprising area between House and Techno. The inclusion of tracks such as Joris Voorn’s remix of Steve Bug’s ‘Swallowed Too Much Bass’ results in an undulating, hypnotic but ultimately highly energetic and uplifting mix. Also featuring his remix of Fatboy Slim’s ‘Praise You’, Fedde uses tracks like Ntfo’s ‘Filter’, Mark Knight & Koen Groeneveld’s Toolroom smash ‘Put Your Hands Up’, alongside another compilation exclusive; Johnstar’s ‘Tick Tock Track’, to narrate full on Fedde Le Grand mode – a chunkier and tougher approach that indulges in epic gut-busting synth melodies.

Fedde’s mix simply inhales and exhales life, striking the right balance between refined Techno tweaks and genre-busting House music that provides a soundtrack that stimulates the ears and feet at the same time.

Paul Woolford ‘Platform’ on Renaissance. Released 15/03/10

Through his work as DJ, producer, dancefloor experimentalist, remixer, collaborator and label owner, Paul Woolford has succeeded in bringing a rare level of artistry to the world of modern dance music and in doing so, made an enduring global impact. Paul’s name is synonymous with quality through his work with everyone from Depeche Mode, Simian Mobile Disco, Delphic, The Juan Maclean, Morgan Geist, DJ Hell and Underworld, through to working with vocals by Skunk Anansie, Freeform Five, Jeremy Greenspan of Junior Boys and Jamie Lidell. Turning to original work, output on his Intimacy imprint always sparks feverish reactions, all of which contributes to make an extended release like Platform a much anticipated one.

Now onto its second release the Platform series gives musicians an outlet to produce something noteworthy. Always exceptional and pioneering in his craft, Paul Woolford was an esteemed choice to curate the latest edition in the series.

Never one to compromise, Paul comments, “Immediately I had a list of records that I knew I wanted to include – every record has been picked from the heart… It was imperative to me that I used only these tracks, with no fillers at all. My aim was not to give a ’snapshot’ mix of what I’m playing on the floor at this time, but to provide what is hopefully a lasting document of my approach to music.”

Titled Surgery ‘One’ and ‘Two’ Paul said the idea of how to construct the first mix came to him after 3 days deep in thought in Brazil. He was in Sao Paulo for a gig at D-Edge and instead of wondering around the Latin American mega-tropolis exploring the city and looking at the Oscar Niemeyer architecture, he was locked in a hotel coming-up up with about 70% of the sequence for Surgery One, something that surprised even Paul himself.

The second mix uses Oni Ayhun’s ‘OAR3-B’ as its anchor, which Paul describes as, “One of the most beautiful pieces of electronic music I have encountered.”

The breadth of tracks Paul has used here is staggering, there are even records dating back to the early 90s, yet his unique approach and deft touch gives them a contemporary feel and brings them into present day. The mix also pays homage to the American mix masters, skillfully incorporating some of their tricks with tracks blending and threading throughout, in some cases appearing over both discs. Paul even takes to using two versions of his remix of Morgan Geist to kick start proceedings on the second disc, although his authorship of this mix reaches far deeper as he features 9 tracks that are comprised of new productions, remixes and specially constructed edits.

The result is a proper ‘mix’; an effortless listen that explores the full spectrum of techno, jazz, cinematic electronica and house.

To conclude Paul adds “I have had so much fun constructing these mixes, and after repeated listens in various states, altered and otherwise… I think they will last for some time. I sincerely hope you do too.” We’re sure we will…
