9:59 Quikmixx 5: Tech House

Our next installment in the 9:59 Quikmixx series is tech house. Most of these are older familiar party tunes with a fair amount of energy; the selection is a little on the spontaneous side but nothing too over the top that would make someone want to choke me and say "what the hell were you thinking?!" Tracklist:

Tomie Nevada: 1st Memory (b2)
Andrew McLaughlan: Love Story (Devilfish Remix)
Willie Diggs: Digg The Stick (Jon Lemmon's Wet Willie's Dirty Dub)
Plastikman: Spastik
Trevor Rockcliffe: Bless The Funk
Christian Smith & John Selway: Total Departure

9:59 Quikkmix 04: Liquidfunk/Drum & Bass

Threw this together this past weekend right after I did the baltimore club mini-mix. This is a slightly more mellow mix than the bmore club one haha! All relatively recent liquidfunk showcased here, almost everything from 2008-09. Dig in. 

naibu: the shrine
break: enigma (calibre remix)
derrick & tonika: rumbambar
saburuko: love is the devil
loxy & matt u: jumanji
chase & status: take me away
nu tone: beatnik

9:59 Quikkmix 03: Baltimore Club

I just recorded another mix for the 9:59 Quikkmix series, this one is a gutter/baltimore club/hip hop one. I don't think I'm going to do a video for this one, but I also recorded a liquidfunk/dnb one that I'm working on a video for right now. Should have that one uploaded to YouTube sometime later on this week. 

My Soundcloud account is now sorted out with mixes and stuff on there, check it out!

9:59 Quikkmixx 02: Hard Techno

For the second 9:59 installment I decided to put away the minimal techno and electro records and cd's aside and pull some of the most abrasive records in my collection that fall below the 150 bpm mark. The harder-edged techno sound that was made iconic by the likes of Carl Cox and Richie Hawtin during their dj sets in the late 90s. It was not uncommon to hear these DJ's play on 3 (or even more) turntables and blaze through 40-50 tunes in an hour. This Quikkmixx illustrates that style and I tried to start it out mellow and build it up- a tough feat for only 10 minutes! I think I pulled it off though.

Mix recorded in 1 shot, all vinyl.

9:59 Quikkmixx 01: UK Garage

The inaugural mix in the 9:59 quikkmix series! I may as well start with one of my favorite dance music genres of all time: UK garage. This one is audio only, but in future Quikkmix's I am hoping to record video (at multiple angles and edited together in iMovie) as well to host from the almighty medium of Youtube!
