Episode 260: c2eMusic April 2023

c2eMusic Soulful Deep House

Well I will open by saying this mix feels very different to most c2eMusic sessions. Yes there is a nice spread of sub genres and yes there is a nice flow through them all. However there is more straight up house in the second half. I'm really keen to hear what you think of it. I must admit it's growing on me, but then I did choose the tracks and mix it (albeit on the fly as usual).
Noticing an uptick in latin vibes across all genres. Looks like the Latin house 20 yr cycle is warming up - move over disco! It's about 20 years ago that everything seemed to have that latin percussive beat and the music sounded full to the brim with sunshine and good times. I'll be honest I've been looking forward to the latin train coming through for a while, all the deep and tech house can get so serious and moody sometimes. Nice to be able to lighten things up. That said there isn't much sign of the new sound in this mix, but it's coming!!
Thank you to everyone that continues to download/play and support. Numbers are again on the rise which is great. So much choice out there these days compared to when I started back in 07, so I appreciate you sticking with me on this loooooooong musical journey together. It's not possible to please everyone every month as we all have our preferences but hopefully you can hear all of the styles through the years in most mixes. I'm not one to drop old genres for the latest trend. Much more fun and challenging blending them all together, but I think the result are mixes that stand the test of time.
Lastly I have to give a big shout out to the one and only Grant Nelson. His track "Relentless" is currently sitting at #1 on Traxsource. The first time a UKG track has held the overall #1 spot. It is a beast of a tune though.
I have the chance to play a vinyl only set this weekend which I can't wait for. If you're in Sydney swing by Stanley's and say hi.
