Potswana is London-based record collector/DJ Sam Potter, whose new mix was sent to AR-HQ on strong recommendation of the ever-trustworthy Mancunian, Rikki Humphrey (@slickyrik). Oddly, Sam and Avenue Red founder Alec Pritchard found through their discussions that both hail from and grew up in the City of Gloucester... that's a first!

For Avenue Red Podcast episode 124 Sam has laid down a raw and real mix of 90's house & garage records full of classics along with some more obscure, unknown and forgotten selections.

"It's simply a collection of records I've been building for a while and have been waiting for an opportunity to set up camp one evening and record what's there. It was made at home on a Friday night after work, two 1210's, an Allen & Heath mixer, a few beers and a 4 month old kitten who was trying to mix the records for me!

I wanted to create a late night club vibe that'll get the party started. I never like to plan mixes, so as always this began with one record on the needle and what followed is a spontaneous collection of some of my favourite cuts. It's a mix of 90's deep house, rare 00's tech-house, some late-night rollers and a couple of garage-y thumpers all aimed at keeping the energy flowing." Sam Potter, March 2019
