Essential listening for house music fans this week. This fast paced underground tech-house mix drifts into all kinds of funky/deep/glitchy/tech sounds while maintaining its roots as a dancefloor house trip. Gedge has a very full on approach to mixing, never standing still and just letting a track play while constantly switching up the vibe too. Years of experience and an ear for quality house has given Gedge the skills to produce this amazing house classic.

Off The Record - Volume #023 - mixed by Skydroid

Off The Record - Volume #023
mixed by Skydroid

Skydroid takes us deep into the sub-heavy sounds of dubstep & bass music this week. Moving through the darker, stripped down and bass-heavy styles of dubstep to more up-tempo dancefloor bass music by the end. As both a producer & dj Skydroid moves through these different styles in such smooth way they work together perfectly. The mix carries a haunting & aggressive tone throughout which unifies the different genres and gives the mix a nice individual vibe too. We're very happy he managed to find the time for this mix while working on getting his latest e.p. finished at the moment too.

This mix from Room 202 is a creative & energetic house masterpiece.

Off The Record - Volume #020
mixed by Maedbh O'Connor

This week we have a solid mix of techno/minimal techno. Stripping the sound down to its rawest forms, just drums, basslines and funky grooves Maedbh maintains the earlier vibes of techno with some glimpses into where its heading too. With it's steady bass throughout this is definitely a mix to get moving to, along with that the switching between softer and more intense electronic sounds makes this mix an interesting journey through techno.
