October 4th Mix of The Week - DJ S&M Presents

#1 Dirty

Actually this was recorded earlier, but I never quite had the time to polish this off into a demo, a lot of the mixes inspired Deep or Dumb. The concept is basically to do a house mix that sounds like a breaks mix.... or maybe it's the other way around. Tracks with 4 to the floor beats bolstered by fat basslines, or ragga MC's, breaks tracks with almost housey beats. There's even a trance track in there which breaks down into some evil industrial breaks for half the track and winds the tempo down - now that's dirty.

Favourite Bit:
When the beat drops and the Acid Line kicks in on 'The Compass' - Josh Wink managed to improve upon Dave Clarke's classic.

Hardest Part:
Finding out that everyone has at least one track in the mix they hate!
