ABL:Radio - Red Hook Shooters - Mixed by Goldstitch (MP3)

So it's been forever and a day since the last ABL:Radio mix, and no we haven't quit, just taken an extended break while pushing our Suspiria parties. That has wound down so our focus is back on the podcast. What better way so start back up again, than with a truly amazing mix? While DJing at roof top party in Williamsburg a few weeks ago, I met Goldstitch. We chatted after my set regarding similar musical tastes. After he returned to London, we reconnected once and he sent me this funkadelic, discolicious mix. Strangely enough, the title "Redhook Shooters" was given long before we talked about running it on ABrooklynLife Radio. It must be destiny! From very humble beginnings Djing around Manchester and my native Macclesfield, I’ve gone on to putting on equally humble Goldstitch nights around London since 2003. I mainly like to be on the other side of the decks bouncing off the walls at Lowlife’s quarterly parties in London which always has a brilliant crowd. Personally for me It’s all about late nights round friends houses playing our new finds... this is when we really listen to the music and adapt our knowledge and taste. There’s a group of us Starting a new night for September in Brixton, south London called “Let it Happen” with more grooves than Gordon Ramseys face. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Happy Mondays-Rave On (Club Mix), Divine Edits - Sermon (Serotonin Edit), C.O.M.B.I. - It A Late, Michael Chapman - Lescudjack (Disco Devil Edit), Sammy Barbot - New Mexico (Lovefinger's Barrio Edit), Revanche - 1979 It´s Dancing Time (Kotey Edit), Random Rune - Pride Before A Fall, Tony Orlando - Don’t Let Go (Pete Herbert edit), BS Machine & Der Beat - Jump Up Let's Go, Beautiful Ballet - Energy, P-Funk All Stars - Hydraulic Pump, Angela - I Gotta Little Love, Chaz Jankel - Get yourself Together, Odyssey - Inside Out, Goody Goody - It Looks Like Love, Jackson Jones - I Feel Good Put Your Pants On, Q.

ABL:Radio - Move Overload - Mixed by Ladycréme (MP3)

Back in the 90's when I helped to throw a few parties here and there, we always picked someone to be the PPH (Peak Party Hours) DJ. This person had the distinction of having the highest energy level. On March 28th, ABL:Radio DJs are starting a new local night at club Deity on Atlantic Ave. I'm hoping Ladycréme will be the PPH DJ since they always want to make me get up and throw my hands in the air like I've won the lotto. This latest mix is more on the disco tip than you usually expect from these guys, but I guarantee it's every bit as good if not better as some of their others. It was originally set-up as a DJ exchange with our comrades over in Bologna, Italy (DJ Omnidrive and associates), and we should be getting a mix from them soon. Enjoy, and come check out our new night "Suspiria" at Deity! ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ metro area – read my mind (special dub), holy ghost! – hold on (black mazego groove), metro area – muira (skinny joey edit), hercules & love affair – blind, tangoterje – dance & chant, force of nature – straight ahead, drrtyhaze – satisfaction, justus kohncke – parage, ilija rudman – after midnight (l.s.b. remix), jona - manta, golden bug – radio ssg (l.s.b. remix), barry mason - body (faze action edit), divine - shoot your shot (jd twitch edit), bangkok impact – premature ejaculation, bag raiders – nil by mouth (knightlife remix), midnight juggernauts – tombstone (comets remix), alex gopher – aurora (riot in belgium & knightlife remix), kylie – wow (mstrkrft remix), shena - electrosexual (aston shuffle remix), cut copy – lights and music (boys noize remix), knightlife – all systems

ABL:Radio - Adamz Holyday Tofurky Miks - Mixed by Adam Smith (MP3)

Adam has been busy doing his Dad duties so we haven't been blessed with a mix from him in a while. Out of the blue he dropped this nice little techy house mix on us. Guess he can't be kept from his DJ passions for too long. We have all our bases cover here with everything from LFO, Villalobos, Janet Jackson to Swayzak to name a few. Have a great weekend, we're off to London for the weekend so we won't be posting much until early next week. Cheers!

ABL:Radio - Every Time Every Day Acid - Mixed by Jon G (MP3)

No one can deny that Jon G is a peak party hour DJ. If you were the energy dial, it would be somewhere around 11. This week's mix is certainly along those lines. You'll hear some favorites like M.I.A. among others. My own front-runner would have to be "So Fucking Disco" by Pase Rock. Enjoy!

Memories Of Summer: Daft Punk At Keyspan Park, Coney Island (HTML→MP3)

A friend of mine dropped this little gem into my lap this morning. So, on this chilly autumn day, we can think back to the awesomeness that was the Daft Punk show at Keyspan Park this summer. I'd say it ranks as the most memorable event in my book.
