textureDJs037 - the way forward

uk@texturedjs.com (textureDJs) — Wed, 13 May 2009 10:11:20 PDT

Hey folks. A well ecelctic, forward leaning textureDJs podcast #37 for you. A mix that just goes up and up and up, through some funk, hiphop, serious soul, superbly deep and minimalist house, disco, fabulous funky breaks, into b'more, baile funk, breaks and electro... before ending the ride with a tune that I wouldn't be surprised if Ennio Morricone had a hand in...

Enjoy!

textureDJs 036 - steve lee guest mix

uk@texturedjs.com (textureDJs) — Thu, 05 Feb 2009 06:39:19 PST

We don't do this. We just don't. In three years and three dozen podcasts, we've never put forth a mix that didn't come from the textureDJs posse, or from a good friend we've spent some great nights spinning records and boozing with...

Well, we're gonna chuck that out the window today. A couple of months ago I came across a chap called Steve Lee, who was putting some simply marvellous mixes into the ether through his facebook group Another Late Night. Quality work that definitely needed some exposure to textureDJs listeners.

Steve is one half of the monthly party 'Mondo' from the DISCO NOT DISCO team. This party is held at the Horse & Groom in Shoreditch, London and tends to concentrate on the leftfield disco scene, mutant disco, acid grooves and classic italo. Steve also is Friday resident at DISCO NOT DISCO at the Lincoln Lounge in Kings Cross, where he's invited textureDJs down to play in March. So perhaps we're just getting the podcasting and boozing in reverse order this time!

So, wrap your ears around Steve's guest mix, pure.mp3

1. Model 500 - Starlight
2. Oblio - Escape
3. Woolfy Vs Projections - Absynth
4. Lodo - Volcano
5. Blackbelt Andersen - November
6. Barnabun - For My Love
7. Tokyo Knife Attack - Love Vandal
8. Kevin Yost - Photo Shoot
9. Kirby - NIghtwriter
10. Lovebirds - Gentle
11. Roy Davis Jnr - I Have A Vision
12. Marc Romboy - Sonora

You can also catch Steve's show over at Danceradioglobal, playing chilled out and electronic grooves.

Good gravy... textureDJs podcasts two months in a row! You'd think we'd made a new years resolution to get our sh&t together here or something! Do you think we can make it to three?

Simon's been rocking the joint with us at Thirst Lodge in Oxford and The Gallery in London over the last six months with his feature live sax playing alongside textureDJs on the decks.

uk@texturedjs.com (textureDJs) — Tue, 08 Apr 2008 14:37:37 PDT

Terribly sorry, but we've had some technical problems of late with getting live podcasts in the can. A few trips to Kenya have gotten in the way of regular podcasting as well. But I think we're just about back in business.

Plus, well, we've been a little busy...

textureDJs 032 - darkest before dawn

uk@texturedjs.com (textureDJs) — Tue, 22 Jan 2008 05:52:07 PST

We're about to launch into some celebrations here at textureDJs, both for the 2nd anniversary of our podcasts as well as the anniversary of one of our Oxford club nights. But January is still a step further down into the darker hours of the annual cycle. And one dark moment struck us here in Oxford in the last month: the closure of the town's last vinyl storefront still standing. Vale, Avid Records!

Still, we got in a last round of great crate digging in their attic before they closed doors for the last time. Some beautiful buried techno treasure to mix in amongst the fresh sounds we've been picking up for you too!

So we hope you enjoy podcast 032... perhaps textureDJs' deepest and darkest to date.

Darkest before dawn.mp3

uk@texturedjs.com (textureDJs) — Sun, 16 Dec 2007 13:13:42 PST

We're heading all the way down to the shortest, darkest days of winter here in Oxford. The Port Meadow is covered in ice and there's mulled wine in all the pubs.

You can fight it, or you can go with it, and go deep... deep into the night.

So a set of soulful beats, straight off the wax, live in the mix, from textureDJs James & Cynan.

tDJs030 - kev's party!

uk@texturedjs.com (textureDJs) — Sun, 02 Dec 2007 04:10:24 PST

Anyone who's caught up with textureDJs in person will know that I'm of the Australian persuasion. And there's been some momentously joyful news in the last week from back home, with the tories finally turfed from office after over a decade, and new PM Kevin Rudd installed! For Australians this should make for more of a fair go in the workplace and an honest approach to our indigenous issues, and for people worldwide it means no more Australian foot dragging on Kyoto and climate change issues. Hooray!

Why is all this relevant to the textureDJs podcast? Well all this political euphoria has inspired me to throw together a mix of party rockin tunes! Click on the post title or here to download kev's party.mp3!

Now crank it up and enjoy!

tDJs 025 - James Irvine, live at Honeypot

uk@texturedjs.com (textureDJs) — Wed, 20 Jun 2007 03:54:12 PDT

Resident textureDJ James Irvine ripping up the ones and twos on a recent Saturday night at Honeypot. Some brilliant new and classic brokenbeat tunes, and some soaring soulful house to boot!

Sorry we're getting pretty terrible with the tracklists. I swear one of us has the thing somewhere, but the end of these nights are usually a little hazy...

By the way, if you do the facebook thing, you can join Honeypot's group here - Oxford's sexiest secret pub - as well as for Get Funked, textureDJs' rather more clubbity night across town...

Also special thanks to the very talented Ao Tomato Design for the pic of Honeypot's front room above. Check out some more of her excellent work at Wisteria Station and Sky first, then shoes.

Last weekend, texture DJs co-founder and Washington DC affiliate Sean Quinn was in town for a coupla days. A whole lotta hangovers, and a four hour live versus session on the decks, were the result. Here's one hour of it!

I can't believe we only had one ESL track in the recorded hour... still since Nickodemus has just signed on there I guess he kinda counts!

Shout outs to Brandon in Boston and Kudzu and Aqui in Japan who are enjoying the textureDJs podcasts! And not to mention grandaddy BC for brat-packing us with some superb other listening!

textureDJs 015 - massive kyoto jazz!

uk@texturedjs.com (textureDJs) — Tue, 01 Aug 2006 00:29:04 PDT

So here's a few tunes I picked up in Japan recently, mostly Japanese with one or two awesome other pickups I couldn't pass up. As always, recorded live in the mix on Saturday night for Oxford's most discerning wee dancefloor! Unfortunately due to a mic malfunction (ie, I'm a wally and missed a switch on the mixer at the start of the night) the file as recorded is without my usual insightful bon mots, podcast IDs, and track dedications... sorry Anna!

If I had to pick a favourite new find for the trip it would have to be Indigo Jam Unit, absolutely smokin' stuff, tho I can't find much of a word on the web in English about them... also I gotta warn you, if that Pilot Jazou B-side in there doesn't have you on your feet, you need to check for a pulse!

Time to get on it, here's your link to download a dose of massive kyoto jazz...

enjoy!
