For 53rd Avenue Red Podcast we present a deep, grooving, soulful mix from Mr. Shadow (real name Mark McFarlane), the man behind the London House cult known as "The Brotherhood Of House". Mark's show runs on Deepvibes Radio and has had some great guests featured, including Avenue Red's Alec Pritchard (https://soundcloud.com/alecpritchard/the-brotherhood-of-house-034-alec-pritchard). The rest is from Mark himself, hope you all dig the selection!
"Being asked to contribute a mix to this immense series has been an honour & hopefully lives up to the very high standards set by the past contributors that have graced this series. I try not to pre-plan my mixes & this one was no different. A lot of my stuff is solidly rooted in the old-school but also appreciating the new as a means to cover a wide spectrum of the House sound in a way that flows. Kicking off with two stone-cold classics from Logic & Mood ll Swing, the mix moves onto some newer cuts that I'm personally feeling at the moment, including Angelo Draetta & Luigi Egitto's “Frozen Eyes” on SP Recordings, also Cocoared's "Funk'N EvaMo" (Only Essence Re-Grooves) on Vital Grooves. A big highlight for me was being able to include two tracks from around '94 that I have never quite managed to incorporate into a set before: The Beloved's "1000 Years From Today" (Todd Edwards Remix) and one for the true veterans at the end - Da Cuban Heelz's "Da Theme".
Hopefully you enjoy this mix as much as I enjoyed mixing it for this wonderful podcast series.
I run a Radio show on Deepvibes Radio called The Brotherhood Of House. The whole ethos of the group/show/events are about promoting that House movement vibe which is severely lacking in today's industry. The shows attempt to showcase lesser-known but non the less talented DJ's & Producers to give them a platform to be heard alongside some very established names, such as Harold Heath, Daniel Ward, Roland Nights, Dweller, DJ Caspa, Dudley Strangeways & many many more."
