If you follow me on Twitter or Facebook, chances are you have already managed to hear this mix. I posted it back in July as a “secret” link shared directly only with Twitter followers, and then opened it up on my Facebook page later on. The idea behind this mix was to play mostly records…

Words of Support for the “Techno Rebel”
As some of the subscribers to the 313 mailing list may already know, Dan Sicko, the author of the book “Techno rebels”–the seminal work about the beginnings of techno/dance scene in Detroit during the late ’70s/early ’80’s, and the creative force behind the Moodmat blog–is very ill. Details regarding Dan Sicko’s current condition are on…
Summer Waxing
Now that we’ve resumed some sort of regularity again on here, it’s time for another record round up covering some of my summer purchases. While I have stopped, for the most part, buying records on line this year, it’s nice that I can still rely on a local store, namely the combined forces of Earwiggle…
Guest Mix – Paudi Ahern, live @ The Bernard Shaw
After a few mixes from ourselves it’s time for another guest mix, this time our 3rd guest from Kerry. Paudi is a resident at the Test night here in Dublin and is widely regarded as one of the finest djs in Ireland. His pacy mixing and constant genre hopping which takes in everything from hip…
New Records, Future Times & Victor Rosado Interview
Just a quick round up of some new releases I’ve been feeling in the past couple of months and a nice interview with Victor Rosado… http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0Um3ahDkKHc Theo Parrish’s remix of About Group’s You’re No Good is his trademark deeply layered grimey house cut, with heavy bass, jazz keys, and vocal samples shimmering in and out….

New mix – Storm Approaching
My latest mix is for our boy Meschi’s This is Our House site. If you ain’t checked it out yet, its full of reviews and mixes by the likes of Rick Hopkins and Mark Du Mosch. The boys now their shit. Mix is a mish mash of techno, electro, house and the odd bit of…
New label bizness – Apartment Records
While it’s been a slack summer for updates it is because we have actually been a bit busy with some other bizness, in my case it’s been getting the latest ISM label off the ground. After much fretting, headaches and general stress, today, fully functioning tests of the debut release on my Apartment Records imprint…
Upcoming gigs & last weekend’s Free Rotation…
For a blog not exactly known for constant upkeep we’ve been especially slack of late. I can only blame simple procrastination on my behalf really, it’s not like I’ve been outside soaking up the sunshine as there’s been fuck all worth talking about here. But anyways, following on from Gmos’ latest mix I’m gonna give…
Guest Mix – Dean Feeney, Tr One
It’s time for something a lil different from Dean for our latest guest mix. A few words from him about it… Basically this is inspired by a radio show recorded in 1997 which features Terence McKenna being interviewed by Art Bell on Coast to Coast am. They discuss Terence’s views on time, psychedelia and volcanoes….
