Low Profile – The Down Low Sessions: 008 – 018

A BIG catch up on my Down Low Sessions side project for Phuture Frequency Radio this month. It’s been ten months since I last posted up any Down Low Sessions thanks to having to wait 10 months to be connected to the internet. Yes seriously.

All’s well that ends well though as I now have a big fat fibre broadband pipe and I am back in the land of the connected. AND you get the benefit of ten massive bass music mixes all in one hit covering from Aug 2013 through to Jun3 2014.

If you like the slower BPMs and Bass, House, Techno, Trap and Garage then get on it. 😉 Don’t forget there is always a more up to date Down Low Session mix over at pfradio.com which you can also subscribe to as a very convenient podcast.

Begin Again – Ear & Drum Session 90

So I slammed this mix together real quick. One of those rapid fire, don’t think too hard about it mash ups that just worked. Except for the last track which I don’t think quite fits and I don’t really like that much. How did it even end up in my crate?

Anyway, other than that I’m really happy with the result. Fast and heavy with loads of energy – if your looking for a work out mix is a good one to load up on the MP3 player.

Change – Ear & Drum Session 89

D&B has been changing of late and it seems everyone is getting excited about half-beat and bass style tracks that sit at the 160-170bpm mark. It’s giving the DJs more flexibility to try out some different sounds and it’s made the music a lot more exciting.

This mix has some liquid & D&B tracks in there, but there is also some Flume and Daft Punk thrown in for good measure as well as some half-beat style tracks thanks to Alix Perez and Etherwood. It’s D&B, but not as we know it and that can only be a good thing.

Low Profile – The Down Low Sessions: 005 + 006 + 007

Been sleeping on uploading my Down Low Sessions side project for Phuture Frequency Radio, so this is a catch up for May, June and July. If you’re a Bass Music lover this lot will keep you rolling strong. Number 008 it is up on the PF Radio site right now. Subscribe to the podcast if you want The Down Low Sessions fresh off the decks as they happen each month.

Sessions 005 has a good selection of deep Bass tracks going on and, while it is laid back, it packs enough punch to keep you nodding. Sessions 006 and 007 are more floor orientated with a good dose of Trap and Techno going on. Definitely good drive by themes if your planning on working the bass cones while creeping the streets in your jeep.

Horizontal – Ear & Drum Session 88

It’s been a while since I’ve used the term ‘atmospheric’ to describe a set. But with Good Looking Records on the come-back trail and quite a few liquid producers exploring the atmospheric side of things for summer I thought the time was right. These are proper vibes, with that UK summer sound that always makes me smile.

Below Me – Ear & Drum Session 87

Back to the deep end with this mix with some old classics thrown in for good measure, like Rockwell’s smasher from last year ‘4U’ and a Sade meets Dillinja mix using LSB’s bootleg of ‘Ordinary Love’ and Capone’s bass terror classic ‘Tudor Rose’.

There’s lots of new stuff going on too with Seba’s new LP getting a rinsing on ‘What’s Your Fantasy’ and the mighty ‘Balance of Power’, plus load of new tracks from Om Unit and Furi Anga to name just a few.

I guess the biggest change on this mix is the equipment it was mixed on. Adding to Serato and my 1200s I now have a digital mixing set up that allows me to add a few extra tricks to the mixing arsenal. Tell me if you can hear the difference.

Call the Ambience 5: Deep Sedation – Ear & Drum Session 86

Bringing the ambient vibes back on this one. There are a few of the usual suspects in the form of ASC, Furi Anga & Synkro. But also a good crop of newer headz who are popping up regularly now with quality output such as Om Unit (killing it lately), Stray and Actraiser who has been pumping out awesome Bass Music tunes too. Hopefully this with fulfil those with a hankering for some float tank D&B and send you on a journey. Enjoy.

Another Bass Music mix from the pfradio archives. Once again a lot of D&B artists flexing their slower BPM muscle such as Synkro, Actraiser, Unquote, Eveson and Rockwell.

Third in the Down Low series and this time we hit the dance floor whilst still keeping things on the deeper tip. Kicking things off with Photek’s massive remix of Birdy’s ‘Shelter’ we go into a selection made for moving. Interesting to note there is a stack of D&B producers in here like Lemon D, Netsky, Sunchase & Nickbee, Logistics, Tali and Atlantic Connection all flexing their Bass Music muscles. This wasn’t done on purpose, but it seems these guys have a knack for producing exactly the sort of Bass Music that moves me.

Beautiful Music – Ear & Drum Session 85

There is so much lush D&B about at the moment that I had to throw together a set of melodic and liquid tunes. Fokuz Recordings and Influenza Media have been smashing out high quality liquid for many a year, but seem to recently have stepped up to a new level of melody magic as has S.P.Y, DJ Clart and Intelligent Manners. Not to be out done Bungle, with his sublime track Aura, has come up with one of the tunes of the year for me so far.

Lots of people deride liquid for being too generic over the last few years, but I think this selection shows that as a genre it still has a lot kick left in the bass bins.
