Those of you who shamble upon this blog regularly will know that Ashley Beedle is seen as a bit of a ledge around these parts. So when he offered me a mix exclusively for Heads Down, not only did I spill my kedgeree in my lap (no that’s not a euphemism) and victory punch the […]

Anyone who regularly visits my blog probably knows that I’ve got the hots for anything Maurice Fulton related. He hasn’t really delivered any stone-cold monsters since his work with Kathy Diamond though; remember the three pronged assault that was his mix of Alice Smith, the Ost & Kjex remix and Kathy’s ‘All Woman‘? I like […]

The Honey Soundsystem are a San Francisco based ‘queer collective’ of disco and house crazed party people who have recently been gaining some infamy outside their hometown. They’re known to book international record players like Todd Terje, Horse Meat Disco and Cosmo Vitelli, which has no doubt help spread their debauched leather-clad late night litany […]

I have a couple of copies of Leo Zero’s seriously awesome Disconnect compilation to give away here at Heads Down. Leo Zero (check my interview with Leo here) is always welcome here at Heads Down towers, and this compilation is a very good indication as to why. His ‘Disconnect’ mix for Strut is a masterclass […]

I don’t know Balearic Mike (aka Mike Smith) personally, but there’s something about his apparent lack of cynicism and infectious enthusiasm that makes him very welcome at Heads Down. Aside from being a celebrated DJ and collector, he’s also the dude behind the wonderful Fascinating Rhythms label; that last Sam Sallon 12″ is one of […]

Red Bull Music Academy Radio are throwing down some crackers at the moment. I thought I’d pop up this mix series; it contains more Theo Parrish on the wheels than you could ever possibly want in a day, or most certainly need. Enjoy.

I recently recorded this mix for Ministry Of Sound Radio (they broadcast it after Cosmo’s show a couple of weeks ago) and it came out so well I thought I’d better blog it. It’s quite druggy and linear (sort of) which is not really my default mode. I just had a wicked time doing something […]

I don’t much like posting other people’s content on Heads Down, but I make an exception for these dudes. As loads of you will be aware, I worked on the Red Bull Music Academy earlier this year in London, which was a fantastic experience. The Academy is a rare example of a superbrand investing in […]

Recently I had a phone conversation with Red Rack em (see my interview here at Heads Down) whereby he was raving about (he’s usually raving about something) some legendary DJ mixes by a mysterious eighties Danish Italo DJ named Flemming Dalum . He told me I should call Ali Renault (he of Heartbreak fame) and get […]
