Mixpak FM: Deep Teknologi

March 27th, 2011

Deep Teknologi are a production duo and label hailing from London, headed by S.E.F and T. Williams, and have been responsible for some blinding house tracks that seem to perfectly blend the new with the old: from the appropriately named ‘Anthem’ to the soulful ‘Heartbeat’, with sounds that wind sweetly between house, dubstep and funky.

The multi-talented team (aside from the huge task of running a label, they also run clubnights and produce TV shows) made waves in 2010 with their mixes, records and signings and are set for the same this year. One half of DT, S.E.F, compiled this mix for us to show us exactly how they roll. It’s full of new and exclusive tracks, including some big forthcoming records from the label.

Mixpak FM: Seiji

March 21st, 2011

Mixpak FM 009 comes from UK club music pioneer, Seiji. If you’re familiar with Bugz in the Attic, Sonar Kollektiv, Roisin Murphy or Reinforced, you’ve probably had the pleasure of listening to his productions. In fact, even if you’re not familiar, this man has done more for the dancefloor in the last 15 years than most producers put together. Now firmly in the realm of solo releases, Seiji has promised to release an EP every 3 months, and so far he’s stayed true to his word, the latest being Seiji 3: a bumping double A-side filled with sub-bass and garage grooves. Check his newest tracks in this exclusive mix, nestled alongside a stellar selection from the underground: funky, house & new garage.

Mixpak FM: Dexplicit

February 23rd, 2011

Mixpak FM 007 is brought to you by grime and bassline producer extraordinaire, Dexplicit. In his prolific last few years he has produced grime anthem ‘POW’, huge instrumentals like ‘Judas’‘Bulla Cake’ & of course ‘Forward’ (which not only smashed grime apart with ‘POW’, and apparently got voiced by Jay Z but was also banned from some clubs for being too hype (fact)). He also produced a hot remix of our track with Natalie Storm & Sticky.

Here is 50 minutes of grime & bassline nastiness, including some of his newest productions and big dubplates. POW!

Mixpak FM: So Shifty

December 26th, 2010

Mixpak FM is back with German duo So Shifty! The production/remix team from Hamburg blasted their way onto the scene in 09, with their huge remix of The Very Best’s ‘Warm Heart of Africa’. Before long, they were sought after remixers and their own productions, like the dancehall-tinged club banger ‘Wine’ (featuring vocals from Ward 21′s Kunley), set dancefloors alight. They have created some top crossover tunes, and their productions skip comfortably across house, cumbia, dancehall and tropical. They’ve also collaborated with some of the past year’s biggest breakthroughs (like Natalie Storm and Douster) and have undoubtedly produced the very best Busy Signal remixes.

Before you ask, we don’t know what the German bits are saying but it’s probably something nice like ‘We’re So Shifty, welcome to our amazing mix’.

MIXPAK FM: DJ Nehpets

September 30th, 2010

Mixpak FM is back with Chicago’s legendary DJ Nehpets who describes this as a “history mix” and without a doubt it’s an amazing journey back through classic disco, house, funk and more. While you might know Nehpets from his Juke tracks (see here and here), you might not know that his first vinyl release dropped on Dance Mania when he was just 15 years old. Insider’s tip: on that release he was billed as “the backwards named Dee Jay Nehpets,” now try reading Nehpets backwards…okay, so we’re all up to speed? Back to the mix, there’s no tracklist at the moment, but anyone who wants to go for it in the comments will be praised and thanked. Take a 58 minute trip back…

Mixpak FM: Nadastrom

July 20th, 2010

Nadastrom turned in a huge remix for Melé’s Bombay EP, so we thought we’d tap ‘em for our second Mixpak FM podcast. Needless to say, they went deep and delivered an hour of the freshest Moombahton and dancehall, giving us a big mix for the summer. Catch the vibe.
