Mixes, Radio/Webradio

Thomas Cox and Jwan Allen Live on WRCT Pittsburgh 6-26-09

A few weeks back I made a post about Jwan and I playing records on the local college station WRCT Pittsburgh. I thought the mix was pretty good at the time, and thankfully it was recorded so I was able to go back and check it out. It turns out that it is a damn good representation of our typical sets: nothing but dope vinyl records mixed up on the fly with all the imperfections inherent in that setup. The recording was made out of the mixer so you don’t get the full radio show experience, but fortunately that means you don’t have to hear us sounding retarded on the mic. It’s broken up into three parts around an hour each for a total of three epic hours of new and classic house, techno, disco, and whatnot. I’m not even gonna attempt a tracklisting, but if you have questions about any tracks just ask in the comments. Big ups to my boys Jake the Snake and Arsenal for having us come through to play some records!

    Thanks for uploading…tons of good tracks here. What is the nice vocal house track after NWA’s Trespassers on pt. 1?

  7. pipecock says:

    Walter Jones “Living Without Your Love”

    that’s a bad motherfucker right there. keep an eye open for some shit from Walter right here on ISM in the near future!

  8. I love the Walter Jones record. (I purchased the 12″ a couple weeks ago) Its the best shit of heard in a while. I’m happy to hear Walter is going to hook-up ISM. Another great addition

    SOLID! mix homies. Deep Domestic American Style…

    Thanks for sharing, enjoying this quite a bit. What is the male vocal track at 30mins on part 1? Stellar track.

  15. kuri says:

    outstanding set you guys. i tried tuning in during the show via internet but didn’t get a signal…glad it turned up here. would have loved to hear a bit of radio gab though 😉
    is that “Trespassers” I hear in there? I heard that was getting a repress…L)

  16. adamm says:

    Hate to bother again, but I’d also like to know the male vocal ones at 39mins and 54mins. Thanks.

  17. pipecock says:

    assuming you mean on pt1:

    39 minutues: Slope “Want’Choo Longa” Sonar Kollektiv 12″

    54 minutes: Amp Fiddler “Superficial” Genuine 12″ (this version is 12″ only, it’s different from the LP mix….)

  18. Kenny says:

    Yup Tresspassers got a new repress with a nice new remix too.

  19. adamm says:

    Oops, I did mean part 1. Thanks again, absolutely loving these, really nice vibes.
