I tell ya, these mixes keep getting better an better. The last leg of our mix series came from New York bass-head RL Grime and this new addition comes from Milwaukee, Wisconsin's House aficionado Richard Richard . While his duo-production project with Asher Diamonds , The Glamour, seems to be on hiatus, Richard Galling has been hard at work putting out solo projects both independantly and with New York based Plant Music . From the early 2011 Garbure EP to his brand new Detachments rework , Richard's [...]
Last year I decided to start up a Bizzies mix series. From the original "mini mix" format to full on DJ sets, we've featured exclusive mixes from the likes of Clouds , Dubbel Dutch , Gotta Dance Dirty DJs and now, a live set from San Francisco based producer Lovecraft . The reason for this change of pace comes from the simple fact that I love his production. We've featured said production a few times before and this hour long session dubbed Light Years seems like a logical extension. I'll be honest, [...]
Slutty Fringe Mix Series #20 Edwin Congreave (Foals) by Slutty Fringe on Mixcloud To be honest we're not massive fan of people in bands being DJs, too many nights out ruined by sub-Libertines chancers with a crap selection of shit music and even worse mixing (that's if they're not playing some shitty pre-mixed CD and miming like idiots). Occasionally though someone comes along who not only has great taste in music but has bothered to learn how to use the equipment and most [...]
Slutty Fringe Mix Series #19 Endless House Foundation by Slutty Fringe on Mixcloud Yes that's right! After a period of being stuck in neutral that can't really be described as brief, the world famous Slutty Fringe mix series slips back into first gear with the mysterious East European troupe Endless House Foundation at the helm. Earlier this year, our good friend Leighton from Keytars & Violins suggested we check out a compilation from the Dramatic Records stable entitled Endless House . As with all [...]
Arthouse dutch dubstep pioneer Martyn is the next artist to grace the Oki-ni mix series, we have to take our hat off to Oki-ni, whoever is choosing the mixes has impeccable taste, we always look forward to friday and their latest musical offering. The label boss of 3024, Martyn is somewhat of a living legend within dubstep and his career mirrors the success of the genre. This mix, however, is a move away from the music that made Martyn's name and is instead a spontaneous collage of jazz, electro-pop and punk - as Martyn explains: 'I [...]
Jd Twitch - An Optimo Music Mix on Mixcloud So just over a year ago we started to run a label of the month feature, except after duly crowning Thisisnotanexit our first ever label of the month we all got a bit busy and well things haven't really quietened down since. The result being that like some grizzled prize fighter TINAE have clung onto their award for nearly 13 months now. But all things must past and so finally we are ready to pass the [...]
Slutty Fringe Mix Series #17 Anthony C (God Don't Like It) on Mixcloud Next up in our increasingly sporadic yet wonderful mix series comes a mix from God Don't Like It 's Anthony C. Responsible for many of the more interesting nights going on in London these days, recent GDLI shows have recently showcased the likes of Meursault, Drum Eyes and Becoming Real. On top of that Anthony hosts the excellent Independent Music Podcast alongside Bearded's Gareth Main, and has recently launched his own label Robot Elephant [...]
Slutty Fringe Mix Series #16 Red Rack'em on Mixcloud After a brief (ish) mid season break we're finally back with the next edition in the Slutty Fringe Mix Series and this time we've found ourselves boarded by the piratical Danny Berman aka Red Rack'em . Danny's been one of my favourite producers and DJs for some time now, going way back to when I ran a record shop and his naughty disco/soul edits would fly off the racks. Since then he's clocked [...]

Slutty Fringe Mix Series #15 Acid Girls by Slutty Fringe on Mixcloud For the fifteenth mix we decided to take it back to the club via our favourite Los Angelean producers of thumping electronic bliss: Acid Girls . Known to their mothers and lovers as Gregory Bowler and Jamie McNeil, Acid Girls first surfaced on the Slutty Fringe radar via their superlative blog of the same name before embarking on a fruitful post blog production career. Despite only gracing our ears with a mere clutch of [...]
Slutty Fringe Mix Series # 14 Luke Abbott by Slutty Fringe on Mixcloud It's been a bit of a vintage year for electronic music, with old hands like Four Tet and Caribou, releasing standout albums, and newer names such as Walls, Mount Kimbie, Gold Panda, James Blake and Dam Mantle helping to reinvigorate a genre that has been much in need of a tonic. The latest addition to 2010's bumper crop comes Norfolk resident Luke Abbott who has already wowed our [...]
Slutty Fringe Mix Series #13 Lovers & Gamblers on Mixcloud It's mix series time again and this time it's the turn of hotly tipped East London DJ/production team Lovers & Gamblers . Brought to our attention via their refixes for the likes of Marina & The Diamonds, Primary 1, Young Fathers and Class Actress, it turns out they're not too shabby on the decks either having smashed it at nights like Girlcore and Little Boots' Boots Camp. You can catch them this Saturday at our [...]
Slutty Fringe Mix Series #12 Matt Waites on Mixcloud I know we say this all the time but this week's guest mix really does come from one of our favourite DJs and producers, Matt Waites . We've been lucky enough to have Matt play at several of our nights over the years and he's always killed it. Whether remixing the likes of Klaxons, Metronomy and Punks Jump Up as Nightmoves, Shy Child, In Flagranti and Friendly Fires as Moscow or knocking out spacey disco with Nadia Ksaiba [...]
Slutty Fringe Mix Series # 11: Zntn by Slutty Fringe on Mixcloud After a bit of hiatus to concentrate on the more important things in life such as the World Cup and dancing in the streets as the sun rises and testing the levels of our jaegermeister toleration the much vaunted Slutty Fringe Mix Series kicks back into life with a selection courtesy of ZNTN . The London based Producer and DJ hails from Lisbon and has an impressive streak of remixes [...]
Slutty Fringe Mix Series #10 Matt (Rvng Intl.) on Mixcloud Long time readers of Slutty Fringe will know the crush we have on all things RVNG INTL related - hell they would probably be our label of ALL TIME if we managed to mature the Label Of The Month feature past it's inaugural gambit - everything they put out seems to fit our tastes. So it feels right to endow RVNG INTL's resident workaholic Matt Werth the honour of our tenth mix. As [...]
When we started this mix series one of concerns was that it shouldn't just turn into an endless parade of tasteful disco mixes. Nothing wrong with that of course but seeing as we've only just about escaped being pigeon holed as thudding, overdriven electro evangelists, we were wary of falling into a similar if sparklier disco trap. Simon Carr's amazing industrial/synth/ambient mix last week went (quite) some way to achieving that, and following closely on its heels comes this week's effort from Radioolio that gets about as far out of the 4/4 box as [...]
Slutty Fringe Mix Series #8 Simon A. Carr (Tinae) on Mixcloud Next up in Slutty Fringe mix series we have Simon A Carr, responsible for making all the decisions at This Is Not An Exit Recordings HQ. A fair bit has gone on since we endowed the honour of Label Of The Month on them a few months ago so we decided it was pertinent to pepper him with further silly questions (sorry Simon) [...]
