https://www.podomatic.com/podcasts/phoneymixes My mixes have a pretty broad variety of possible styles. I can do a pure Reggae/Dub-mix as well as Funk or guitar-stuff and electro. Often I like to work beyond borders and combine things. Sometimes those mixes may feature some of my own original material as well. I like a lot of stuff that is definitely not mainstream and tunes that may be too moody for a lot of deejays. All in all I'd say life - with all it's ups and downs - can be reflected in music and a mix so I don't see why I should just pick out a tiny section of all that when there's so much more to express. In other words: I'm not kneeling down to the dictatorship of the dancefloor or any scene. en-us Podomatic RSS Generator Fri, 07 Aug 2020 02:47:37 +0000 dj,phoney,sounds,mind,love,vibes,soul,funk,rock'n'roll,electro,hiphop,club,reggae,dub,beat,guitar,bass,horns,moving,dancing,floorshaker,dancefloor - deepest vibes - yes no DJ Phoney My mixes have a pretty broad variety of possible styles.

This mix was released as a mix on tape and cd in 2005 on Phoney Tapes (Cologne, ger) and sold well over 200 copies. It has been recorded with vinyl 45s on two MKII-turntables and a Vestax-mixer, as well as a delay effect, a Kaoss pad, one microphone and a sampler. It's all about deepest grooves. This is supposed to be the opposite of the "let's all clap our hands and party happily"-dancehall styles or the "island in the sun"-superficiality of tourist reggae. Roots Reggae with a certain vibe - too moody for many soundsystems, so exactly what I want to represent. The tough stuff instead of the hype and the surface. There's tunes by The Mighty Diamonds, Keith Hudson, The Silvertones, Ronnie Davis, Chosen Few and many more in there. I wrote the following comment in the tape inlay (and am still thinking the same): "Remember: You don't have to live in Jamaica to be a sufferah - Strike and working class revolution are the only effective ways to stop the rulers!" ...and that comment at the end of the mix is Neil Perch (of Zion Train) by the way. https://phoneymixes.podomatic.com/entry/2010-08-14T18_08_15-07_00 https://www.podomatic.com/podcasts/phoneymixes/episodes/2010-08-14T18_08_15-07_00 Sun, 15 Aug 2010 01:08:15 +0000 2013-12-06 2013-12-06 https://www.podomatic.com/podcasts/phoneymixes/episodes/2010-08-14T18_08_15-07_00 DJ Phoney bass,beat,cymbals,deep,dj,drop,drums,guitar,heavy,horns,man,mix,mixtape,offbeat,one,organ,phoney,poor,real,reggae,revolution,riding,rockers,roots,spirit,style,sufferah,tapes,vibe,vibes,vibez,vocals 3669 yes 1 A Roots Selection by DJ Phoney - Dig That Heavy Reggae Groove!

I created this mix spontaneously before guests arrived at a new year's eve party at my Drake Records store when 2008 turned 2009. I picked records from the shelfs that I had already heard together in the back of my mind but didn't actually mix and it all fitted well. I went from the groovy Chanson section to jazzy Rare Grooves from Library to Easy Listening. On to bit of modern afrojazzy vibes, one actually reggae-based tune, bit of catchy deep Fusion grooves, short turn to Funk, early Soul & Souljazz... well, you see there's a lot of stuff in there. Think it all fits together and reflects diverse emotions instead of just heading one direction. And since I like to handle and mix things that way there ye got the explanation of the title. For me this mix sounded totally like I felt that evening... Some tunes you might know already, though The Meters-tune is sadfully overlooked and the version of "You're So Vain" is also not that well-known but George King Organ Sounds is from a rare and obscure library while I met nobody until yet that ever seemed to notice this John Williams track (actually my personal fave in this mix) outside this mix. The Watts 103rd Street Rhythm Band-song was released on 45 twice in the 70s - this here is the darker, much tougher (and harder to find) version. (The french intro is spoken by Olivia Steyaert a.k.a. twila.too with whom I form the Ernest Drake electro-group.) https://phoneymixes.podomatic.com/entry/2010-07-21T15_30_20-07_00 https://www.podomatic.com/podcasts/phoneymixes/episodes/2010-07-21T15_30_20-07_00 Wed, 21 Jul 2010 22:30:20 +0000 2013-12-06 2013-12-06 https://www.podomatic.com/podcasts/phoneymixes/episodes/2010-07-21T15_30_20-07_00 DJ Phoney vibes,jazz,rare,groove,soul,funk,afro,easy,listening,library,chanson,bass,beat,dj,freeform,sounds,moody,variety,unconventional,deep,atmosphere,heartful,band,big,guitar,horns,lively,maverick,melancholic,orchester,organ,symphonic,unique 3493 no 2 A 'not-that-obvious' sort of Rare Groove mix by DJ Phoney.
