I’ve been excited recently by the emergence of the sun and wanted to record a mix that would suit those long summer vibes. Whether it’s mojito’s by the sea, or beers in the garden, let’s hope there are plenty of them! Thanks to Dick and all my friends for support and opportunities.

Dick Cosmic & Ezra - Ezra and Amigos 230517 by Dick Cosmic

Adam Jones....................A mix for the the 'Luciano of hartlepool', It was a party at the Arches in Glasgow where he saw Jeff Mills and Slam that sparked Adam's interest with music and in particular playing records.. Over the following years he was involved in a few parties in and around Birmingham hosting events at venues such as the custard factory, the boiler room and his last event being a warehouse party with Audiofly and Adam Shelton headlining. Adam has also been fortunate to have a residency down in London for Transient at the horse and groom as well as playing in Poland including Piekarnia, Cien Club, Lodz and Poznan.After putting on these parties Adam lost his passion in music and was unsure of what musical direction to take. This quickly changed when the Below parties launched in Birmingham. House music is now very much at the forefront of his passions, over the past six months he has been in the studio working constantly on productions. A few of his productions have started to get interest from the likes of Spencer Parker, Kevin Griffiths Burnski and Jamie Jones and hopes to have some very good news soon regarding releases!

The Local Firm (Arthur Fenn & Pete Marcinkowski) - Truancy

For those of you who know Arthur you will know how much of a rarity such a thing as this would be. But here it is. A fine selection of trippy rude instrumental hip hop tracks taken from mine and Arthur's private collections. One on one off, vinyl records, turntables, cups of tea and the usual ;-)

Recorded in an old school during the week when everyone else was at work (hence the title). This was in the final months of hanging out we had together before Arthur's daughter Marla was born and I upped sticks and moved to Australia. I have fond memories of this period.

Arthur: This is for our friend Duncan. Without whom i wouldn't have met the beautiful woman who has changed my life. Or many of the amazing crew of nutters I am privileged to call my friends. Leeds Essex Brum Manc Sydney. Youknowwhoyouare. X

Pete: Seeing as this was a joint venture i felt i should add a dedication also. I am dedicating this to you Arthur. A big brother, a teacher, an inspiration and one of my very best friends. We have had so much fun together over the years. Here's to many more. Keep on doing your thing bruv. Much much love geezer. x

Enjoy x
