Dj Narrative – Home Vol #1 – Zazen

marcreck — Fri, 09 Mar 2012 16:19:57 +0000

The first downtempo mix with Narrative for this new podcast is entitled “Zazen”.

Dj Narrative – Going Out Vol #1 – Live at Shambala

To kick off the dancefloor side of the podcast I thought i’d start with my favourite gig of 2011 – 9pm sunday night in the Kamikaze tent at Shambala Festival. I’ve posted this in different forms before & its been on soundcloud for a little while for dload so i wont waffle about it too much. Like the 1st Home mix this doesnt feature any of the new found turntablism and unlike the Home mix, there’s no focus whatsoever on narrative, as it was aimed squarely at the festival audience, but ...

I will be giving away all the tracks on the album for free as well as the album itself which will ...
