Melé stepped up to the Boiler Room Standard Place takeover a couple of weeks back, delivering a heavy set featuring his own productions, classic garage, house and even a little Daniel Beddingfield. Now the audio from his one hour set is up for the download over at the Boiler Room site – go here to stream or download.
Dubbel Dutch guested on DJ Q’s 1Xtra show last week, giving a quick interview where he talks about his background and upcoming releases and a 30-minute mix. Unknown to the Unknown have kindly released a download of the mix for those who couldn’t listen back in time:
Don’t forget, this week saw the release of Dubbel Dutch’s ‘B Leave’, complete with Nguzunguzu remix, and the preview of his first Mixpak EP, Hymn, to be released on November 15th.
Mixpak 024 is brought to you by New Jersey’s DJ MikeQ, a pioneer of the new generation of Ballroom DJs that’s been steadily bubbling up from the underground NY scene and making waves worldwide. Producing tracks and remixes in the vogue fem style, MikeQ has put his magic looping touch to Chelley, Egyptrixx and Willow Smith to name but a few, and heads up his own production company, Qween Beats. His Mixpak FM offering is 90 minutes of brash, club-driven sounds straight from the floors of the ballroom. It includes tracks and remixes from Vjuan Allure, DJ Jayhood, DJ Tameil, Kingdom and more, alongside tracks from his forthcoming EP on Fade To Mind, released on November 22nd. It will be sure to get you (trying) to vogue.
