anyone got anything of note?

housey would be good.

if anyone could recommend a few mixes that would be good to have on in a bar during off nights, I'd appreciate it

looking for stuff that's not too poppy, not too deep

or even just point me in the direction of stuff itt

john heckle live in the boiler room is killer!!

acid house FTW

Legowelt - Live at Astro Disko (Tulliklubi, Finland, 23 Feb 2001)
http://soundcloud.com/cremeorganization/legowelt-live-at-astro-disco

A live set rather than a mix, and it's over 10 years old (though only uploaded this month), but it's really, really fun. Legowelt's new album on Clone is very good, btw.

Pinch's mix of a bunch of old-school dubstep classics for Electronic Explorations:

http://www.thedailystreet.co.uk/2012/11/tds-mix-029-beneath/

listened to tons of mixes this year, more than ever, and wanted to add some of my favourites of the year, some of which have prob already been posted, some perhaps not, not taking the credit for the fact some of you pointed these out on this very thread.

maxxi soundsystem - beats in space mix (quite a good rep of the popular sound of house at the moment, amazing herbert mix at the end) - http://www.beatsinspace.net/playlists/639

dixon and ame boiler room - (sort of weird how spiritually this feels a bit more kompakt, but i guess innervisions have always had the electro/rock thing going on in the background) - https://soundcloud.com/platform/dixon-me-4-hours-boiler-room-x

shed - wax treatment podcast 32 - (i don't often listen to this sort of music but this mix just endured all year for me) http://waxtreatment.de/podcast/030/wax_treatment_podcast_030.mp3

shed - la boum de luxe - this just feels so much more planned and precise than the glut of other mixes, like a mix you'd pay for - https://soundcloud.com/secretsundaze/shed-la-boum-de-luxe-18-aug

tommyboy - frame of mind mix - all year since i got this it's just been one to put on in all sorts of situations - a brilliant selection of disco, electropop, and balearic type stuff - really reckon i'll still be listening to this in 12 months time and beyond - http://tommyboymixes.tumblr.com/post/25014679244/tommyboy-frame-of-mind-mix-tracklist-01

magic mountain high at golden pudel - in the year of move d this set is one standout, also got to go to golden pudel this year and it is fucking awesome, don't go to germany without going there - https://soundcloud.com/move-d/mmh-pudel-openair-2012-06-17

move d at panorama bar - think this is probably the best of the many sets he posted on his soundcloud - https://soundcloud.com/move-d/move-d-panoramabar-2012-01-22

tim sweeney - beats in space #631 - feel like bis never gets the praise it deserves around here, and tim pretty much always picks a great chunk of the best music around, plus you hear things there way before anywhere else - the guests are good but tim's own sets are almost always ace and this one is a really good mix of old and new stuff: http://www.beatsinspace.net/playlists/631

just realising there are at least 7/8 more, i'll add them in over the next few days.

tommyboy - frame of mind mix - all year since i got this it's just been one to put on in all sorts of situations - a brilliant selection of disco, electropop, and balearic type stuff - really reckon i'll still be listening to this in 12 months time and beyond - http://tommyboymixes.tumblr.com/post/25014679244/tommyboy-frame-of-mind-mix-tracklist-01

+1 on the Move D / MMH love.

lol @ u

b-but thanks!

super nerdy but it's mostly because my memory is so terrible. hated not being able to remember what books i read or what records i was listening to even a few months ago.

nah I can see how it would be necessary especially for things as ephemeral as mixes

Honey Soundsystem HNY 151: Harry+Jpeg - Men's Room
http://honeypotcast.blogspot.co.uk/2012/07/hny-151-harryjpeg-mens-room.html

but probably my favourite mix of the year was RA.317 Benoit and Sergio which was the mix for the summer we never had. I think i listened to it every day by the pool in Ibiza though.

listened to tons of mixes this year, more than ever,

me too. gym+running=mixes.

LG check out the Justin Miller Mix, i think you will like it.

can someone put this back up??

http://www.mixcloud.com/simiangibbons/tommyboy-mixtape-for-international-tapes-frame-of-mind/

thx!

is there any way to DL from that site or is it just streaming

not sure actually, i never use mixcloud, just found that via googling. it was on soundcloud but i couldn't dredge it up.

can someone ul it

i'll give it a go over next few days, though i'm not gonna be home except to sleep until saturday.

genre: 'cosmic typhoon'

so much great bass on that mix

mixcloud is streaming only

Tommyboy - Frame Of Mind

Ron Morelli (L.I.E.S.) @ Red Light Radio 11-26-2012 https://soundcloud.com/redlightradio/ron-morelli-l-i-e-s-red-light

― ey,

This is nice. Wish there was a download available.

http://www.beatsinspace.net/playlists/654

double helping of prosumer

thanks guys, loads of great stuff here, giving the White Light Optimo mix a go which is already sounding great (but then I love every mix I've heard from them)

I'm really enjoying the new double mix CD by Acid Pauli on Crosstown Rebels. First disc is slow, dubby house. Think Nocilas Jaar, Stimming, Raz Ohara, etc. The second disc picks up the pace a little, and moves from Dop to Autechre... really interesting and musical.

Beyond that, I would second those who've sad the Maya Jane Coles DJ Kicks is great. Also like Motor City Drum Ensemble's DJ Kicks. Some little heard gems on that. Have been a little disappointed by most Fabric mixes this year - Ben Klock a case in point.

fave commercial mixes of the year are LOL Boys Enter the Unknown and Silkie & Quest Dubstep Allstars 9

mcde dj kicks is super dope but wasn't it late 2011?

this thread rules

how have we not had a thread for mixes in years previous?

In terms of commercial mixes I'm still coming back to Paul Woolford's Lab 04 mix regularly. I think I need both Zip and Daniel Avery's recent fabric CDs too.

http://www.beatsinspace.net/playlists/654

double helping of prosumer

This is great, thanks! Constantly forget to check out new BIS shows...

I saw Prosumer in Cologne last week and when he played that Addictive & DJ Naughty track that's also in the BIS mix (+ a bunch of other UK Funky) it really went off. I checked hardwax and they used to stock that record, I'm guessing that was largely down to him.

One of my favourite mixes not mentioned so far is Late Nite Tuff Guy's 'One Night In A Disco' mix, filled with his endlessly sumptuous and listenable edits - the edit of Change's "A Lover's Holiday" in particular always makes me smile.

got a link?

Go to the downloads section of his website:

http://www.lntg.co/

really enjoying the ron morelli mix from upthread.

thanks Tim!

actually i withdraw my thanks since i can't find it. i found a track by that name but not a mix.

The mere mention of Late Nite Tuff Guy has me excited these days, I adore what he did with Prince's "Controversy".

jed the mix I mentioned is definitely in the "Downloads" section at the website I just linked to.

You can also hear the edit of "A Lover's Holiday" on his soundcloud.

cheers tim i'll have another look.

oh i didn't see that section earlier. iirc the site didn't load properly. thanks again for real this time :)

thx gr80 for upping that
and all the rest of you, thanks, i'm going to paris tomorrow and tanzania next week and y'all just gave me a hell of a soundtrack

i missed that! thanks gr80.

also that late nite tuff guy mix is awesome. thanks for the heads up on that.

you are welcome guys. merry christmix.

and to you and yours.

whatever mixes you listen to this season, have a wonderful christmas, all.

hogmanay TUFF GUY. mix of the year for me.

i honestly can't thank Tim enough for the heads up on this but thanks again Tim!

No worries Jed!

My brother in law tried to snag him to DJ his and my sister's wedding. Would have been coup of the century if he'd pulled it off.

TUFF WEDDING

finally got around to hearing that tuff guy mix - a lot of my listening is at work so given it didn't stream from his site, i had to download it. it's really good - i'm a bit bored of the type of edit that seems to be so dominant now but there's a freshness about the stuff in that mix. it's like he is extending the grooves of the originals rather than picking an element and zoning in on it.

i had heard the amazing "want you back in my bed" one before but not any of the others.

http://soundcloud.com/nmbrs/jackmaster-mastermix-2012

^^wow. jackmaster pushes so many of my buttons. the destiny's child moment>>>>>>>

it's like he is extending the grooves of the originals rather than picking an element and zoning in on it.

yeah, it's got a good sense of movement and directionality without flying from one thing to another. i was going a little nuts in the kitchen when started into 'a lover's holiday.'

http://www.clashmusic.com/sites/default/files/styles/article_feature/public/legacy/files/Rinse%2021%20cover.jpeg

todd terje's beats in space was pretty awesome wasn't it

probably the mix I listened to most in 2012, I think.

listened to that rinse 21 yesterday. sorry to say the mixing is really shoddy in some places and the tracklist is too obvious. although the latter is not a major factor.

shoddy mixing? where?

skimmed through the mix and amazingly couldn't find the supposedly shoddy transitions and actually they're all nice!

;-)

aboslute belter that mix and i normally h8 that maxiaml/rinse house stuff. the Soul Clap track!
