Happy New Year! Well, what a strange trail it has been! After a somewhat more substantial break than I have taken in the past, I am finally coming out of my covid haze and getting back to work. As the title might suggest I may also be traveling again in the near future though with the omicron variant in full swing who knows what the next few weeks …

Some time off and I'm back and ready to roll. I'm having fun with breaking out of the boundaries of just a straight up 4/4 set. The last couple of episodes have explored tempo and break beats. Here I'm trying to combine a straight and break beat flow. I hope you all enjoy! RC

Hi Folks, Just managing to get February on the books whew! This is the first part of a set my good friend Jeff Griffiths and I recorded while he was out here recently.

Happy New Year All! For the first mix of the year I wanted to continue working through a bit of a tangent I started in December incorporating a wide range of tempos into the set. In addition to that it has been a long while since I have had an opportunity to put an all breaks mix together. So Voila! This one starts out in the 90 BPM range and build…

This month I had the pleasure of doing opening duties for a true legend in the industry. Mr. Nick Muir has been the man behind the curtain on all the Bedrock releases going back 20 years.

Hi all, A few weeks late this month due to me getting used to my new Pioneer controller and tranferring my music collection over to Rekordbox. I think i'm getting the hang of things now.

This month I pulled a bunch of B-Side out of the dustbin and weaved them together with some top notch music.

Not to mention this time I also went back a fair ways and picked up some pre…

The name of this game this month is moody, which probably is somewhat influenced by how I've been feeling lately. I have just come through a couple of months of very intensive work as well as a lot of stress. I think this month's mix reflects that. Lots of dark and subby basslines and sparsely melodic hooks. Feels good to go a bit dark for a change…

Sorry for the delay this month, I've found it difficult to find the time to record this month as work has been exceptionally busy. Never fear though I do have some great tunes to share this month.

This mix turned out to be a bit more introspective than I anticipated. I think one of the reasons for this was the serrendipity of the whole thing.

I don't think I would have selected this set of tracks to play but as…

I had a conversation with an old friend over the holidays and we were talking about getting back to our roots musically.

These are new records, but they embody the spirit of …

Rarely do you get a full set of this very mel…
