15:13 - August breaks mess around

8/11/2022
Finally!!! After my daughter took over my studio (did she really need her own bedroom), I set up a little corner of the living room to have my Pioneer controller hooked up and ready to play. It was great to have a little mess around and I recorded a bit of a breaks mix. These are tracks which I have downloaded recently and there does appear to have a lot of OnDaMike in there. Also the first track is a little exclusive which someone made for me... Anyway, enjoy. Show us some love on...

So first half, all 130 four four electro and breaks, and then second half we take it up to 175 for 30 mins of drum & bass. Track list to come but enjoy... Show us some love on Patreon.

15:11 - Chill & Breaks Mix

7/1/2022
A little out of my comfort zone I was asked to play a chill out set at Bay Bar in Ibiza. The music policy was house music, 'house music Mike, no chilled dubstep or liquid drum & bass, house music Mike!!'. He didn't say I couldn't play breaks so... This is my "Chill & Breaks" mix or "Bass & Chill" mix, not sure which one is better. Originally I was going to play this set at Bar Bay on the seafront of San Antonio however due to various reasons the venue wasn't ready to open. Which was a real...

6/17/2022
During the "platty joobs" weekend the family, my brother and best mate went to the King Of The Beats all day-er at the Fox & Firkin. It was essentially a large pub garden with a bit of a rave corner. We took our 9 month old, as you know, she needs to get into breakbeat early and it was a lot of fun. This mix is very much inspired by the breakbeat classics played that day. Big ups Krafty Kuts, Freestylers and Plump DJs (King Of The Beats) for a wicked set, Renie Pilgrem, Deekline, Atomic...

OK, it's been a moment, sorry about that. Long story short, my mental health went sideways which meant recording was really tricky. I made the actual show about a month ago, but doing the vocals, well that's a story for another time.

15:04 - Mix Month: Black Sun Empire guest mix from 2012

1/28/2022
We go into the Bass & Breaks archive and pull out something from 2012, this mix is awesome and was so proud to get this exclusive guest mix. Black Sun Empire meant a lot to me when I was buying vinyl, I loved drum & bass but I couldn't find a sound I was passionate about until I heard these guys. They had a label called BSE Recordings (the precursor to Blackout Music NL) and I'm sure I have most of that back catalog on wax. This guest mix was around when they were releasing their 'From The...
