Platform Six Funky House Radio Show #5

Show #5 of my funky house radio show Platform Six is now archived and ready for you to listen. This week, I feature a special DJ guest mix by DJ Alex Lee from the Good Groove.

As usual it’s a funky blend of old and new with a breakbeat style theme to the first half. I also get first play of the latest track from Jamie Wamie which is another beautiful piece from this talented producer.

Check out the archived show over at SSradio or, if you want, you can hear the whole mix go out live today at 4pm GMT on Lifted Radio. Tune in and let me know what you think.

Now Arriving, Platform Six

For those that don’t know, Platform Six is my new radio show that is being broadcast to the world via the magical delights of the internet.

Every fortnight you get to hear some classic and upfront funky house tuneage mixed by self. Plus you also get to hear me jabber on about pointless crap too.

Each show is two hours long and has a featured guest mix tucked within it’s depths. I try to cover a wide spectrum of funky house sub-genres but essentially it’s all just a load of tracks that I like all strung together with a bit of filler in the middle. I like it and I hope you do too.

Now that you know what it’s all about, why not check it out? It is free after all. You can find my bi-monthly Platform Six show on SSradio here (login required):http://ssradiouk.com/shows/platform-six/ or on Lifted Radio here: http://lifted-radio.co.uk/podcasts/?cat=69

Join Me On Last.FM

I’m always on the lookout for fresh new music as well as reminiscing about oldskool stuff too. Most of the time I have either Hed Kandi radio playing during the day, or a bit of Radio 1 if I fancy it but I have come across something much better.

http://last.fm is an intelligent online radio station. Once you have registered, you can enter artists that you like and Last.fm will play you tracks from those artists as well as from producers in a simmilar genre and style. This is very much in the same way that Pandora used to work but Last.fm have the whole social networking thing attached too making it easy for you to share your favourite tracks and create playlists from the music that you like.

One downside is that not all of the music is avaiable at the same volume, so you will find yourself reaching for that dial quite a few times. But the major plus side is that Last.fm will learn the music that you like and over time it will start to suggest better and better tracks for you to listen to. You get to discover new music in the genre that you like that you might not have heard of before!

I’m quite new to the Last.fm thing and I probably havent checked out all of the features, but on the face of it its pretty damn good. Go and take a listen now. Its free and you might just discover a few jems of audio delight that you never knew existed!

Mash Up Mix 2008

I picked up the Mash Up Mix 2008 double CD mixed by the Cut Up Boys the other day, and I have to say it rocks!

I am a big fan of mash ups as they provide a little something different to throw into the mix at a hungry dancefloor. There is a certain art to creating a mash-up and the Cut Up Boys who mixed the album have got it absolutely spot on.

There is a huuuge selection of music tracks on this double album ranging from funky house, to electro, to breakbeat and a touch of drum & bass too.
