Episode 270: c2eMusic February 2024

Here we go with the first mix of 2024.  Half of the tunes have been sitting in my Traxsource basket since January, some since December!  I'll be honest I wasn't feeling the urge to put a new mix out.  The music wasn't inspiring enough.  The radio shows were more nostalgic and I got back into rediscovering my older music and mixes.  I did actually do this mix two weeks earlier on the previous show but my mixer was playing up and causing the tracks to skip which made mixing almost impossible.  The flow wasn't quite right though, a couple of big juicy tracks made an appearance waaay too early.  That was the only change made for this mix.

We start off with a tribal feel for the first three tracks before hitting the soulful stuff.  The main body of the mix has that tried and tested rolling, bumpy warm feel that has you involuntarily tapping those toes and nodding your noggin.  There are three great remakes of old classics that I'm sure everyone knows.  I don't normally go in for remakes as they often fall short of the original but these have been done really well.  The chunky part of the mix peaks with Deetron's excellent 'Runnin' with its big piano keys.  We have a longer than usual come down ending with Riva Starr's 'How It Feels'.

Lucky enough to be warming up for Lenny Fontana next weekend at the Ivy Pool Club.  This summer has been amazing for the quality of DJs passing through.  Can't wait to see who I get to play alongside in the remaining months before things quieten down over winter.

Longer than normal mix this month.  Music shopping was slow after searching soulful house, garage and deep house and I was starting to worry.  Then along came house and everything changed.  I went from having not enough music for a show to way too much.  It took longer to download and I ended up being 10 minutes late for the start of the radio show.  I played longer to make up for it and so we have a mix that's 2hr 18m long.
There is a lot of energy in this mix because of the extra lashings of house.  The chatroom was busy and there were great listener numbers on the outside, everything just came together.
Remakes are the big thing in the house scene right now with many 90's and 00's classics getting another run with remixes by newer producers.  There are a few in the mix, you'll recognise the vocals at least.

I've started releasing on Soundcloud again with a paid subscription so no limit to how many mixes I can host there.  If the you like your music streaming orange then I got you covered.  www.soundcloudcom/c2emusic

This is the recording from the RFOX VALT VR club event I did on the 27th October.
It's essentially a virtual nightclub in the middle of a virtual world created by Sydney based RFOX.

Anyone can come along, especially for anyone with an Oculus headset.
I'm looking forward to doing future events and I'll keep you posted on my FB & Insta accounts (www.facebook.com/c2eMusic & @richiec2emusichaynes).

It's a short sprint of a mix at just an hour but I still managed to pack plenty of goodness inside.

The opening track is one I remember from back at the start of my clubbing days in the early 90's.
It was a popular last track of the night because of the way it opens.  They sadly don't make em like this anymore.

Next event for me is in Sydney on 24th November.  I'll confirm the venue closer to the date.

1: Clivilles & Cole - A Deeper Love (A Deeper Feeling Mix)

This mix was heading in the "for my ears only" box as I didn't get a warm fuzzy at the end of the show.  I wasn't happy with the flow and there were a couple of key clashes that made my bum whistle that little bit higher.
However my partner fell in love with it over the following weekend.  She pleaded with me to release it, "it needs to be heard" she said.  I continued to listen to it over and over and as is usually the case it grew on me.
At the same time I played a set at a cool swanky rooftop pool club in Sydney and used a bunch of the tracks from the mix.  This time I was very happy with how it flowed and so I had managed to scratch that itch.  As a result I'm excited to get this original mix out as it is quite different to the Boogie @ Ivy session.

I am always looking for feedback (not that I get much) and would love to know whether you think I should have kept this mix in the box or not.  Don't worry I won't get upset, but it is nice to hear from others, and I respect your judgement, I mean some of you have been on this journey for over fifteen years now!!!  That blows my mind, I'll be honest.

I'm starting to put on regular events in Sydney, so any of you down here can come out and dance to this music with us.  I'm hoping to build a nice little community of people that appreciate this range of dance music, maybe even educate the little ones about life beyond Tech House!

Next event - Stanley's on Stanley - 28th October 6-12am.  It's free and I'll be joined by DJ Nycks from Underground Jack and Birmingham's finest Mr Gary Ward of Body People fame.  I believe in a fewer DJ's with more time policy.  It's how it used to be, and it worked better than the one hour rodeo we have these days.  Give us time to settle in and we'll take you on a journey.

As always a HUGE thank you to everyone that joins me for the live show on Pressure (Alternate Thursday's 12-2pm UK).  Special shout out to the chatroom crew, you know who you are.

This is a recording of a set I recently played at a really cool rooftop club in Sydney.
It was the warm up set, which is perfect because you have the freedom to choose how to go from zero to everyone warming up on the dancefloor.

The set is a mix of new tracks that you'll hear in the upcoming c2eMusic podcast for October and some of my favourite tunes of 2023.

I'll be playing for Underground Jack at Stanley's in Sydney on Oct 28th.  It's free so no excuses!  It sees me reunited with my good friend DJ Nycks for the first time since Covid closed everything down.  Also joining us on the night are Gary Ward and Chic Daddy DJ.

I'll be back at Stanley's again on Nov 24th (Friday) joined by Gary Ward, Steve Robinson and Chic Daddy.  December 2nd I'm back at the Ivy Pool Club again.

As you can imagine I never set out to create a "munted" mix, but it provides a way for me to release mixes that I feel don't meet my usual standards.  There could be a couple of ropey transitions or as is the case with this mix, too many naked beats, usually the result of the transition not being tight enough.
The reason this mix is munted is because it's the first one in my new house.  The new music room was only put together an hour before the the show.  Acoustics still not sorted, but enough done to be able to do my show on Pressure.  I started the show with no intention of releasing the mix, I just wanted to get through the show without any technical issues.
The reason I am releasing this mix is simple, there are some great tunes in it!!
Neensy, my partner in crime, was upstairs listening to the mix and begged me to release it.  Every time we listened to it she would tell me to put it out there for others to enjoy, so here it is!  If you love it, you can thanks Neens.

The mix contains a couple of tracks I've bought in the past but never actually played in a show.
There is a fresh cut in there too, I got the latest promo Mind State ft Tess Leah - For You from Sy Sez's label Raising Records earlier that day, classic new UK soulful house vibe.
Mix opens with the same track I played on my first Pressure Radio show.  So many memories locked up with that tune.

The August mix in recent years (excluding Covid) has become the Suncebeat mix as it's the first mix after the festival.  This year marked the last time Suncebeat will be held in Croatia, or the Tisno Gardens at least.  It was the fourteenth event which is incredible and shows the quality of the week long soulful house spectacular.
It was the quietest in terms of numbers that I've been to and this was my fifth one.  What that meant though was the DJ/Punter ratio was awesome.  Seemed everywhere you looked legends of the scene were connecting with everyone and were really accessible.
The highlights for me included meeting Martin Atjazz and Osunlade (both whom had a huge influence on the c2eMusic sound over the years), grabbing a picture with Osunlade, Spen and Rich Medina, catching up with The Journeymen, Joe Cox and Andy Ward and connecting with Danny T.  I was also encouraged to see the youngsters representing, having met the Coughlan Brothers, Ryan and Jay, as well as Noah Herel (yes Ronnie's son) on the Deep Into Soul boat party.
I was lucky enough to then catch Noah put down a killer set for Mi-Soul later that night alongside his very proud dad.  The pair smashed it with Noah only having a few months of DJing under his belt!  Kenny Dope smashed it at the Olive Grove for Terry Hunter's Chosen Few night.  It's funny I was always a Louie fan growing up, but more recently Kenny has blown me away everytime I've heard him.  I think it says more about my own personal musical journey moving from the more soulful to a deeper more twisted sound.  Not to be outdone, Spen put on his own night of magic at the Olive Grove with Dawn Tallman and Aaron K providing a performance to remember together at the end of the night.  It was one of those "I was there" moments that you knew was special as it unfolded in front of you.
Biggest surprise were Analog Soul out of NY, playing on the Beach Stage on Friday night. I'd never come across them before but there set was amazing.  The flow was great, but their tune selection was second to none, at least for my taste and preference anyway.  They certainly found a new fan right here.
Back to the mix and I have to say it doesn't sound like a regular c2eMusic mix.  It's very laid back and chill for the most part.  I was worried it might not have enough energy but I can't sit still listening to it.  It has a very grown up mature feel to it which feels alien to me (I am after all just a big 48 year old man-child in many ways).
I initially wasn't going to release this mix, some of the transitions aren't quite what I'd have liked and I couldn't find a track to end on that brings us back down safely!  However, after listening through a couple of times it feels wrong to hold it back when the tunes themselves are cool af.

Midway through 2023 so no better reason to do a best of (so far).  This podcast pulls from the last six mixes Jan-Jun cherry picking the some of my favourites so far this year.  It's been a pretty good year for music so far, it wasn't easy choosing which tracks to play, although it was all done on the fly so it was dependent on the vibe and feel of the mix.
The chatroom was packed, soooo grateful to the regulars that join every fortnight.  They absolutely influence the tracks I play.
Not much more to say about the mix, I mean you've heard all the tracks before and hopefully most of your favourites made it into the mix.

I'm off to Europe for the rest of July taking in nine cities in 17 days!  Can't wait to catch up with family and friends, some of whom I have seen for over 17 years.  One of the highlights of the trip is Suncebeat 14 which is confirmed as the last Croatia based Suncebeat.  It's always such an amazing experience, soulful househeads from all over the world coming together to enjoy the sun, sounds and great company.
If you are going and you see me, come say hi.

Wow, where do we start with this little badger.  It almost never happened due to some technical issues during the show.  I had played around with the settings in Butt that week before and hadn't put them back.  So for the first 50 minutes of the show everyone was listening to the mic on my Mac!  Yes, they heard the music albeit grainy and muffled, but they also heard me singing, talking and carrying on like a loon while I worked through different transitions on the fly with my new tunes.
Thankfully it didn't affect the recording, so here we are.

This months mix is a real spread of sub-genres.  We start off deep, I mean DEEP.  Next came the Afro/Arabic beats on the way to the usual deep smooth UK stuff.  The middle part of the mix sounds a nice drive through the countryside on a summers day.  All is right in the world, windows down, feeling the breeze.  Things then toughen up as you'd expect on this journey with some chunky monkeys, Milton Jackson the chunkiest monkey of them all.  Groove Assassin's awesome remix of Hallelujah has been smashing up UK dance floors for a while now and for good reason.  Set to be the sound of Summer 23 for sure.
Big shout to Ralph Session - on fire right now.  Three of his latest releases feature in the mix, all very different.

Busy weekend for me playing vinyl with Klubhouse @ Camperdown Commons on Saturday 10th, followed by a warm up set for Honky Tonk @ Tatler on Sunday night.  In between i'll be raving with Sydney's old skool crew at MoS Love & Sabotage.

Props to Chic Daddy DJ, DJ Nycks and Neens for input.

May is a birthday double header in the Haynes house.  This year it's a special one as my eldest turns 16 allowing him to drive!!  I'm so proud of the young man he's becoming.  He really is a chip off the old block, so much so that he has just gotten into vinyl and is now showing interest in DJing and production.  He even joined me in the music closet for this weeks show to see how it all works!  The mix cover is AI generated pics of Bailey as a wee baby.  
The other birthday is mine as I head towards the mid century award.  This time it's 48, a number that sounds a LOT older than I feel (and look :)) .

The mix opens with two classics from the early mid 90's.  The first is Gigolo Supreme aka Frankie Feliciano with Gigolo's Anthem.  The second is the classic Strictly release "The Theme" by Loop 7, non other than Satoshi Tomiie!  We come back to the present but in the same vibe building slowly across the first hour.
The second hour has much more urgency about it with more of a UK garage flava,  The intensity continues to build until we get to a mental track by DJ Dove.  I can't stop singing "Bussit" and I've only had it just over 24hrs.  The mix signs off with another track paying homage to the past.  This time it's Mood II Swing's "Do It Your Way" being honoured.  A track that I can still remember hearing for the first time back in the UK in 02, some six years after it's initial release.

I always do my mixes on the fly with new barely heard tracks these days.  It creates a real adrenalin rush because I just don't know if the next track will keep the mix heading in the right direction.   I am hearing the mix and the tunes for the first time like everyone else listening.  It often makes me worry that this is the month I'm not able to put out a mix out I'm happy with, and this month I had little faith until maybe 20 minutes in.  
In the end I had nothing to worry about.  By the end of the show I knew I had a great little mix, but after hearing it back a couple of times I feel really proud.  I've done this so many times now I almost take it for granted which would be wrong.  I'm grateful to be able to keep doing this and keep finding wonderment and happiness in the journey and output.
That there are people all over the world that also share a love for the same vibe and are able to share a connection through this music is humbling and one of the things that keeps me going.
So thank you again for your continued support, downloading and hopefully getting as much pleasure listening as I do creating.
