JOIN THE FUTURE: MIX 01 by Matt Anniss published on 2018-09-18T18:36:22Z Dub bass, heavy electronic rhythms, minimalist bleep melodies and far-sighted post-industrial futurism: a deep dive into one of Britain's most forward-thinking and influential musical movements of the late '80s and early '90s, bleep and bass. Featuring a mix of little-known cuts, stone cold classics and unheard new edits, Join The Future: Mix 1 contains lesser celebrated tracks and remixes from many of the original scene's Yorkshire pioneers (Unique 3, Rob Gordon and Forgemasters, LFO, Nightmares on Wax, Ital Rockers, Mad Musician, Sweet Exorcist, unheralded Leeds scene stalwarts DJ Martin and DJ Homes), as well as those on a similar wavelength elsewhere in the UK and beyond (Network Records, Chill Records, Brothers Grimm, No Smoke). This is the first mix in a series tied-in to my forthcoming book Join The Future: Bleep Techno and the Birth of British Bass Music, which will be published by Velocity Press on 2 December2019. You can find out more and pre-order the book here: https://velocitypress.uk/product/join-the-future-book/ More info on this mix and full tracklist here: mattanniss.wordpress.com/2018/09/18/bass-in-your-face-join-the-future-mix-01/ Genre Techno Comment by Drox great mix, just finished the book. looking forward to listening to more :) 2019-11-29T00:29:12Z Comment by GumboDJ @sellbydave: looking forward to hearing the longer mix. :) 2019-08-09T14:18:39Z Comment by michael smith @sellbydave: cheers selbydave, it's great 2019-08-08T15:04:08Z Comment by Matt Anniss @user-657323196: It's a re-edit I did of the "Soundboy Mix" of Brothers Grimm "No Use Crying Now" 2019-06-23T17:43:31Z Comment by michael smith what's this lovely tune? 2019-06-21T12:00:46Z Comment by Matt Anniss @gumbodj: Thanks so much - it's great to hear that you enjoyed the mix and of course that you've pre-ordered the book. It means a lot. There's another even longer mix on file that goes further than this and touches more on the hardcore side of things as well as bleep, so hopefully that will appear closer to the publication date. Thanks again for the support :) 2019-06-17T16:21:51Z Comment by GumboDJ I have enjoyed this mix immensely. I have collected Bleep and Bass tracks since 1990, and I think this mix really does this genre justice. I am looking forward to the your book, have signed up for a copy. BTW - love the edit of "We Are Back" . All the best, you have put a big smile on my face. Thank you. 2019-06-14T09:27:59Z Comment by Caroline Bless xx 2019-06-12T23:22:12Z Comment by Caroline Bless <3 2019-06-12T23:18:34Z Comment by Morgs yes boss! 2019-06-11T20:40:23Z Comment by Légaré @oliwarwick: That's what I hear as well! 2019-06-11T13:46:13Z Comment by BMO.
