The Takeover w/ A Deeper Groove & Andy Smith 1st November 2020

A Deeper Groove can be heard regularly on Reform radio and will play anything from house and jazz to folk and hip hop; this month they have a very special guest....

Andy Smith was the first DJ to release a multi-genre mix album on a major label. When his mix-CD The Document hit the streets back in 1998, it became the soundtrack for a generation.

This appreciation of different genres made Smith the ideal person to provide sample material for Portishead on their first two albums. He went on to make his name as the band's international tour DJ – reflecting their respect for both the art of digging for breaks and hip-hop scratch DJ-ing. Hip-hop elements formed the basis of the unique Portishead sound.

Andy regularly appears in clubs across the world and his strong cult following has secured him constant DJ bookings around the world. We are delighted he’s sharing some of his famous collection with us.
