deeper dubs & balearic beats

This mix is part of a trio of sessions I laid down for a trip to Ibiza in 2003. Selina & Matt, Ben & Lara, Lisa, Malcolm and myself took a villa up in the hills and had a fantastic break. I sorted out a wad of minidiscs for lazy poolside days. From memory, and from reviewing my limited notes, this mix was actually two separate sessions. I initially recorded something in May which I guess I wasn’t very happy with - it may have been one of my late night pissed-up adventures - but liking the first few tracks (particularly the blend into Groove Armada’s My Friend) I decided to pick up the mix from half way through, adding tracks 6 > 13 in August. Both the Aug and May sections lacked any meticulous planning. I just grabbed recent tunes that went with the laid-back mood to get some deep house faves into a mix for the holiday. It works on the whole but I’m sure the last few tracks (esp that Marvin Gaye booty) were probably just filler to use up the minidisc.
