Hello internet land, it's been a while... I've missed our sessions here and have a few goodies to share starting with a real doozy from our own dynamic duo Team Sexy (http://www.facebook.com/teamsexypdx).  They put this on Soundcloud (http://soundcloud.com/teamsexypdx) a little while ago but I wanted to be sure all of you got the first installment of what promises to be a great series. For those new to the Team Sexy experience is is comprised of Robby DeBolt (http://www.facebook.com/debolt2) (Kasher (http://www.facebook.com/pages/Kasher/145613512133592)), and Jeremy Shay (http://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=1598235500) (Hecca).  These two can play just about anything, well known in Portland for their Dubstep sessions, this is their house centric tag teaming alter ego.  Now that we all have name tags on, let's talk about the mix. Leading off with some inviting deep house vibes, it quickly morphs into dance party USA. Interesting track selection, smooth mixes, and quality programming make this a joy to listen to.  We wonder how many people will lose an hour dancing in their living room to this?  It happens to everyone at some point, give up and give in... It feels real good. A tag Team set of Sexy proportions... all for you.

The title tells me we have a new series, and just going on the quality of the Listen To This mixes, we are all in for a treat. It's been a while since we've gotten a new Pat B. mix so I was really excited when I saw this one in my inbox. The title tells me we have a new series, and just going on the quality of the Listen To This mixes, we are all in for a treat. Let's all thank Pat (http://www.myspace.com/patbenolkin) for the wonderful iPod fodder now kiddies. As the opening of it all, it's logical and thoughtful. At this point I expect nothing less of Mr. Benolkin. He begins it like you would begin a party, subdued a bit, tribal, and warm to the touch. By the time I heard the familiar sample "I am ready", I was indeed. The momentum is constant, building very expertly until about two-thirds of the way through when the energy goes up another notch. His track selection, programming and mixing are fluid as always, and just as the name imparts... he left me primed and ready for part two. Here's a little tech house love for you, perfect for the lead up to just about anything.. What will you use it for? Tracklist * Seth Troxler - Hurt feat. Matthew Dear * J- Mode - The Trouble (Lee Curtiss remix) * Sascha Krohn - A Tree Is A Tree (Tim Xavier & Camea remix) * Attemporal - Drumeando (Kabuto & Koji remix) * Okain - Wait Please * Edu Imbernon, Samuel Knob - Trilopenco * Groove Garcia, Edu Imbernon - Missing Berlin From Spain (Hermanez remix) * Kolombo - I'm On You're Side (Kruse & Nuernberg remix) * Ronan Portela - Piumino (Barem + Someone Else dub mix) * Ramon Tapia - Sunka Sanka (Coyu & Edu Imbernon remix) * Muzzaik - Going Underground * Olivier Giocomotto - Bordeaux * Tony Senghorn, David Ekenback - Drunk Man Standing (John Acquaviva & Olivier Giocomotto remix) (http://thefunkykind.com/wp/wp-content/uploads/2010/01/patb_ld01_540.jpg) Brooke Would. no 1:02:00 http://thefunkykind.com/2008/10/richard-dinsdale-october-mix-pt2-2008/ http://thefunkykind.com/2008/10/richard-dinsdale-october-mix-pt2-2008/#comments Thu, 30 Oct 2008 16:08:39 +0000 Brooklyn http://thefunkykind.com/?p=579 http://thefunkykind.com/2008/10/richard-dinsdale-october-mix-pt2-2008/feed/ 1 Richard Dinsdale, House, Electro House, Club, Electronica I came across this mix a week ago, and instantly shot off an email to see if I could share it with you.  Mr. Dinsdale was more than happy to oblige.  This mix explains that Ministry of Sound residency, club thumping, thick and engaging throughout. I came across this mix a week ago, and instantly shot off an email to see if I could share it with you. Mr. Dinsdale was more than happy to oblige. So here we have it, Richard Dinsdale's second mix for October. This mix explains that Ministry of Sound residency, club thumping, thick and engaging throughout. I won't list his slew of accomplishments, I'll just say listen to the mix, even better go listen to his production work. Honestly that's how I know him crunchy, teched-out, precise bangers. He has a unique sound and you can always count on quality. As I type this I only have a 96kbps file for the mix, which kills me because otherwise it's amazing (yes I'm a nerd). For those of you who want to turn it up I've got a email in. Tracklisting * Hauswerks ‘shake it’ [1trax] * Shlomi Aber ‘State Of No One’ (Shlomi Aber Mix) [Renaissance] * Rene Amesz ’ploert’ (dj remy and roland klinkenberg remix) [Noir music] * CLS ‘Can you feel it”(Erick E remix) [Strictly Rhythm] * Johnny Fiasco ‘Turista’ [1trax] * Christian Falk FtRobyn ‘Dream On’ (TigerStripes Remix) [DATA] * Richard Dinsdale ‘Let Yourself Go’ ft wray [Toolroom Records] * Richard Dinsdale ‘Walkies!!’ [Global Underground] * Johnny Fiasco ‘Night Crawler’ [1trax] * Chris Lake ‘Only One’ [Global Underground] Bio It's all too easy to endlessly list Richard Dinsdale's accomplishments. It's all too easy to wax lyrical about his Ministry Of Sound residency, his genre bending productions or his rapid rise to the top of house music's well spread table. But where's the fun in that? Of course Richard's one of the UK house music's recent heroes. You wouldn't be reading this if he wasn't. What you need to know is why he is where he is. And why this time next year he'll be even further. | myspace.com (http://www.myspace.com/richarddinsdale) | toolroomrecords.com (http://www.toolroomrecords.com/artists/richard-dinsdale) | Richard Dinsdale yes
