Hello there. How have you been? It's been a while hasn't it? I haven't dropped a new episode of Retro House Mixtape since before Christmas 2021. I've been on a bit of a break (and I kinda still am) but I had some time to throw a mix together th

Dec 10th, 2021 1h 11m

Boom! Out of the blue it's another episode of Retro House Mixtape and this week it's another 'Speed Garage' set. It's probably the last Speed Garage mixtape as I've pretty much burned through all the stand out SG tracks in my collection. Don't

Episode 106 - Early 90's Mixtape

Apr 30th, 2021 1h 7m

I felt like throwing together an early 90’s set this week. The original plan was that it would be a set of early 90’s funky U.S. Garage but things kinda got away from me. Along the way things morphed into a bit of a rave vibe (playing Energy Fl

Episode 105 - One From The Archive

Apr 23rd, 2021 1h 16m

Episode 101 - Back From A Break

Mar 26th, 2021 1h 2m

Aaaaaaaand we're back. After a few months off it's time for some new episodes of Retro House Mixtape. I'm kinda rebooting things a little bit. Previously I've avoided playing tracks more than once but after 100 episodes I think it's time to rel

Episode 98 - Back to '98 Mix

Oct 30th, 2020 1h 14m

As per the last few episodes we move another year further into the 90's and it's a mix of two halves which very much reflects my record buying habits of 1998. It was mostly either funky/disco house or more trancey based fare. There are some cra

Episode 95 - Back to '95 Mix

Sep 4th, 2020 1h 19m

It's another trip back to the 90's as we head into the mid-decade decadence of 1995. The year when I started DJing on the regular in various bars and clubs in the town where I grew up. It was certainly an exciting year for the 17-year-old me.
