Bad Bwoy Style – 2007 DJ Demo

I found another one of my older mixes! This time ’round from 2007. In this mix I decided to play many different styles; Minimal & Electro, Techno & IDM, some classics from different areas of the electronic-music spectrum and some leftfield tracks as well.

In the end I didn’t spread this mix since it contains a small error… One of the turntable ground wires slipped loose during play and a hum can be heard for about a second during The Hacker’s ‘Space Travel’. I remember my arm automatically leaping to the ground-cable to put it back in place!

Again, this mix is all vinyl and recorded using Audacity.

02 Moguai – ataque
03 Argy – Unreliable virgin

2004 Tech House Demo

I found an old burned CD and wondered what was on it. Turns out is was an old Tech House demo I was spreading at the time! I ripped the CD, glued the tracks back together and upload it to our beloved Mixcloud.

Monarken – OK (Reprogram Remix By JordyVision)

As mentioned in my last post, I was working on a remix for Swedish group Monarken, It’s finished now!

I took the midi from the original bassline and combined it with some home-made synth sounds. I decided to use the original kick-drum and layered it with an 808. You’ll also notice CR-78 and TR-707 samples for some of the rhythm-sections and a few percussion loops taken from the original. So that’s why I decided to call it ‘Reprogram remix’.

Edit: As of now you can also listen to the song and download it at Bandcamp or Soundcloud.
