Growing up in the mid nineties in North London I was obsessed with pirate radio and the main two stations i could pick up with any regular semi-clarity where Dream and Don FM. My usual diet was primarily Dreams output of Hardcore and Jungle, but in the weekend early morning hours Don FM would often play a mixed bag of music that was unique and exotic to my ears. Dub Techno, Ambient, Drone... atmospheric, spatial music with minimal beats. The absolute inverse to my chaotic - breakbeat and synth stab heavy regular diet.
Artists like Plaid, Black Dog, John Beltran, F.U.S.E (Richie Hawtin), Basic Channel, FSL ... and of course AFX and Global Coms.
This mix is in tribute to those sets I absorbed whilst willing on sleep as the birds starting tweeting and the milkman soon come.
