[MIX] Mr Minimax – The Goodnight Mistress Vol.1

Here it is people, the project so secret that only a select few of you will ever have heard of it. After sitting on my hard drive for months on end, I have finally decided that it is time to unleash Vol.1 of the soon to be legendary mix series; The Goodnight Mistress. The wait may or may not have been due to poor internet connections stopping me for uploading, but that really is irrelevant at this stage of the game.

 

As indicated by the ‘Vol.1′ portion of the title, and quite possibly by line above where I refer to the ‘mix series’ this is only the beginning of The Goodnight Mistress. Volume 1 sets the scene nicely for what is to come. Hopefully the tracklisting will do a pretty good job of explaining what it’s about…

Mr Minimax
The Goodnight Mistress Vol.1

A mellow mix of ambient, downtempo and experimental music, electronic and organic.

Mr Minimax on the Brap.fm Podcast June/July. Download Now

This Month, I, Mr Minimax, am taking over the Brap.fm podcast, and putting together a 50 minute blend of music that’s been making me tick lately, as well as a few of my favourites.

My musical history goes back a long way, playing in bands for years, lots of noisy punk and metal music, gigs in pubs, blisters from guitar strings. That was me. I started producing around the same time I started clubbing, and from there, things have been slowly building to where I am today. I now co-run oxford club night Fresh Out the Box. We have a reputation as a breaks night, but in the past 6 months we have seen guests such as Alex Smoke, Will Saul and Cassetteboy, so things are a bit more varied than you’d think. My tastes span pretty much everything under the sun and I try to give everything a chance, judging every track on its individual merits.

DJ wise, my club sets and radio sets vary greatly. Catch me in a club and you’re likely to hear a selection of breaks, techno, house, on a varying scale of heaviness depending on the night. Radio however, is totally different kettle of fish. The only policy is that if I like it, I play it. Be it indie, breakcore, soul or ambient. So far the formula seems to be working well, and listener figures are rising every week.
This mix, is a middle ground between the two platforms. It flits between genres and covers a wide range of the music I’m into, while still retaining a very danceable quality and a solid groove which keeps steady throughout.
If you like what you hear, you can catch me on Brap.fm every 1st and 3rd Tuesday of the Month from 10 till midnight, and now, every 2nd and 4th Saturday of the Month, from 4 till 6 in the afternoon. Tuesdays will generally take things down a more experimental route, playing absolutely anything I feel like, guest mixes, artist showcases, label spotlights and demo tracks from up and coming producers. Saturdays will be a lot closer to my club sets, lots of big, beat driven, bass heavy dancefloor material, less features, more unadulterated music!

Thanks for listening, with any luck it will push as many of your buttons as it has mine.
Anyone interested in booking me for their night (which I heartily recommend) send an email to minimax@brap.fm and we’ll talk business.

Anyway, enough from me. I’ll let the music do the talking.
