THE DOWNSTAIRS MIXUP

Hi Everyone

This has taken me a while to update hasn’t it? Well I finally have something to offer - the first hour from my new CIRCUS Promo Mix.

Its a slight departure from the usual Downstairs Mixup sound but I like to play differently at the club. This mix is meant to represent the music I play there in an extended form.

The other two hours can be downloaded here:

I was going to publish this volume in a few days but I thought I’d let you get your hands on it early ahead of my appearance at CIRCUS on Saturday. It starts off quite slow and cinematic and works its way through some techy disco, some Norsk dub and finishes with me in full on 80s edit mode!

Thanks to Cam, Stu, Jimmy, CMWMSMDM.

See you on the dancefloor!
