The Autumn collection has been spilt into two mixes representing both sides of
the Bargrooves sound and those tracks which are currently leaping our of BenÆs
box û from funky uplifiting vocals to deep techy and dubby.
--
CD1 kicks off with æCloserÆ a sublime track by Soularis sung by Mandy Edge
oozing sensuality which blends straight into æJungoÆ by Hanna Hais mixed by DJ
Meme who has recently been described by M8 as a DJÆs secret weapon, and has
caught the attention of the likes of Dimitri From Paris amongst others. With the
likes of Physics, Jay-JÆs remix of Ananda Project, Kings of Groove, Ruben
Alvarez and Soul Central making appearances across CD 1 you know this really is
a good old fashioned Bargrooves mix.
--
CD2 delves directly into deep tech house territory - Two chuggy dubby numbers
from Smooth Science and Afrobeats lead into the big, spacey creation by The
Timewriter, with its haunting female vocal weaving through a deep luscious
baseline. The mix stays on the deep tip through another track from Scope on
Urbantorque and the very sophisticated simple sound of æA BarcodeÆ from Plastic
City. The pace of the mix picks up with another Scope belter, æLookinÆ Back,
ThinkinÆ ForwardÆ, with the characteristic baseline layered with luscious synth
sounds. Finishing with massive æHalf Man Half AmazingÆ track by Spin Science .

So there you have it two CDs full of tracks that have rocked dance floors all
over the world and are true reflection of the Bargrooves sound in a market
dominated by electro and commercial cash ins.
