JD Twitch and JG Wilkes, known as Optimo, have been tapped to mix Fabric 52.
The Glaswegian duo are known for their wide-ranging and atypical track
selection, which often mixes up post-punk, disco and experimental music with
contemporary house and techno, as heard on their 2007 mix Walkabout. But for
Fabric 52, the pair chose a slightly different tack, focusing more than usual
on club tracks.
"We've been fortunate enough in the past that labels have let us experiment a
bit and put together selections that make really diverse and sometimes quite
difficult mixes," says Wilkes. "With Fabric 52, we were really excited by the
idea of a dance floor-centric mix of tracks."
JD Twitch says the experience of DJing at fabric helped guide the creative
process behind the mix. "At fabric weÆve played all the different rooms but
quite often we play in Room Two, so that was the initial idea of how we
approached the mix," he says. "It's our idea of what we'd play solely for when
we want to get people dancing, when weÆre not trying to freak people out. It's
all about the dance floor, with maybe a couple of curve balls thrown in there
along the way."
Nonetheless, the tracklist for Fabric 52 is still more diverse than your average
commercial mix fare. In addition to cuts by Levon Vincent, Oni Ayhun and Thomas
Brinkmann, the mix features under-the-radar gems like Fad Gadget's "Lady Shave"
and Roni Griffith's "Spys."
