Catz ‘n Dogz – BBC Radio 1 Essential Mix 2013-04-20

“A couple of months ago, when we heard that we were going to get to mix our first Essential Mix, we had absolutely no idea what we were going to do. It’s a very big deal for us to do this mix. We decided to use a lot of old records and tracks that we really liked when we first started playing together in our hometown in Poland. That’s why, for example, we asked Jacek Sienkiewicz to send us ‘Dream Machine’ and also why we included Michael Mayer ‘Speaker’.
There is a lot of old vinyl that we included especially for our Essential Mix. Harry Kane, T-RWKR, Arto Mwambe, Needs, Terry Brooks and one of our all time favourite records from Alex Cortex that we even edited specially. We really have to thank Axel Boman for introducing us to Bassroots ‘Good Life’ and Marcin Czubala because we discovered Sofrito Specials through him.
There is something from our label Pets Recordings, that our friend Nikola Baytala from San Francisco will put out at the end of May. It will be his first EP for many years and this track is probably one of the most trippy things we’ve ever released. That’s why we love it so much! There are a lot of tracks in the mix that have their own story but, for now, we’re gonna let the music speak for itself’. Catz ‘n Dogz, April 2013.”

Tensnake – BBC Radio 1 Essential Mix 2013-02-16

Tensnake in the Essential Mix this week.
“”Even though I play a lot of live shows, I also really enjoy making DJ mixes. Apart from my earlier productions, and Coma Cat!, a lot of people know me from my very first Resident Advisor mix, which really did help to changes things career-wise for me.
And this one is no different. As ever, there is a certain sound and sensibility that I like in my music, but I also like the odd curveball, like opening with that really stunning track from Alice Coltrane called ‘Krishna’. I would say the first hour is super-deep and mellow and the second really kicks up a gear, so it’s a game of two halves!
I’ve included new music from people like Medlar and Martin Patino, as well as new productions from my forthcoming artist album, which will be out later in the year. I have to say, I’m super-happy with my Essential Mix. It has groove and depth and doesn’t take any obvious routes… I hope you enjoy it too”.
Tensnake, February 2013.”

Mat Zo – BBC Radio 1 Essential Mix 2013-02-09

Another week another Essential Mix and you know that Core News will post it 🙂
“Mat Zo makes his Essential Mix debut with a seventy track spectacular. He says of the experience:
“I started making music when I was eight. And I started DJing when I was a teenager after a special music class. DJ Pied Piper came in and taught us all how to mix and from that moment i was hooked! All the music in the (essential) mix is stuff that has inspired me or stuff that is hardwired into my brain from listening to it so much! There are also new tracks that give me hope in the music industry. I started laying down tracks and seeing where the mix would go and it was a really experimental process in a lot of ways. I chose tracks that wouldn’t necessarily would go together in a club set, but would work as something you would listen to on a day-to-day basis”. Mat Zo, February 2013.”

Metrik – BBC Radio 1 Essential Mix 2013-01-26 Future Stars of 2013

“”Hi, I’m Metrik and I’m an electronic music producer from London, UK. One of my main aims with this mix was to keep the selection as fresh as possible by sourcing new music from my favourite producers and labels in drum & bass and beyond.
The mix includes a lot of my own tunes and remixes as well as some unreleased, previously unheard material, including my collaboration with ShockOne called ‘Lazerbeam’ and ‘Flightwave VIP’. There are also some unreleased projects which I’ve been working on recently in the studio and some brand new and exclusive tracks from High Contrast, Ed Rush, Dirtyphonics, ShockOne, Killsonik, Skrillex, Cyantific, Dimension, Brookes Brothers, Flux Pavillion, Opiuo, DC Breaks, Danny Byrd and Roni Size.
I’ve included some things I wouldn’t normally play in a one hour DJ set and have tried to reflect a wide spectrum, covering dance floor, downtempo and some deeper sounds. Hopefully the mix serves as a snapshot of some of the best new music around and what’s to come over 2013″.
This show is the final part of a 4 part series and available to listen to again via the iPlayer until Friday 1st February, alongside Pete Tong’s Future Stars Essential Mix from Perseus & Jonas Rathsman, Annie Mac’s choice, Duke Dumont and Heidi’s choice George Fitzgerald!”
