As the Spectrum shows were drawing to a close, we focused more on mixes from former guests. Spearhead/Future Retro label head BCee was a repeat guest, and subsequently during 2009 a presenter on the show. Unfortunately he was unable to appear on Spectrum before we finished, but to mark his involvement and in appreciation of the many fine tracks he provided, I spun out this mix. This is recorded directly from the mixer, so there's no unnecessary talk - just the music ;-) Stunna & Amanning – Just A Dream (Future Retro) Submorphics – Miles Ahead (Spearhead Records) Stunna & Amanning – Mutual Life (Future Retro) Redeyes – Luv & Haight feat. Deeizm (Poetry In Motion LP – Spearhead Records) Redeyes & Random Movement – Groove Thing feat. Mutt & Mike Romeo (Future Retro) Lenzman – Caught Up (Spearhead Records) Redeyes & Random Movement – How Many Ways (Future Retro) Marky & Bungle – Let Me Tell You (Moodswings LP – Spearhead Records) L.A.O.S. – Harmony (Future Retro) BCee – Glitter Balls [Redeyes & Lenzman remix]

This is one of several mixes that I recorded on request for other podcasts/shows. 1 Nuyorican Soul feat. Jocelyn Brown – It’s Alright, I Feel It! [Roni Size remix] (Talkin’ Loud) For me, a classic. All about the vocal breakdowns on this one! >>Roni Size – Windrush (Planet V LP – V Recordings) With ‘It’s Alright..’ being so long, I feel there’s plenty of space for a tease underneath. Windrush is perfect, just adds the extra deep bass element. Tracks like Brand New Funk & Strictly Social may be better known, but for me this is one of the main cuts on the album. 2 Sonic Generation – Without Reason (Looking Good Records) A very recent 2nd hand purchase. Just the right, lush musical styles you’d expect from this label. 3 Peshay – Jah VIP Rollers Mix (Razors Edge) Essential remix from Goldie’s Timeless album. I love the inclusion of the ‘Timeless’ vocal. Not many releases on this Metalheadz offshoot, buy on sight! 4 Mr L – This Is Hardcore (Mr L Records) After I heard this again recently on an old Fabio & Gro
