After the multi-genre mash-up that was There & Back 010 I decided to get more specific for the 11th edition in 2024's crate-digging mix series; in this case to really dig into and explore DJ Zinc's brief but really awesome run of producing breakbeat garage in the early 2000's. Those of you who have been following my mixes for a while will know that I'm a huge fan of DJ Zinc - as far as I'm concerned, he's one of the best electronic music producers of all time, and since it's been 13 years since I made a tribute to him I thought it was worth pulling together another tribute mix, this time dedicated to his brief but super fruitful era of early 2000's breakbeat garage. Why? Well, not a very complicated answer: these tracks are great! Enjoy!
