This is a mix in tribute to my friend Sean Haley. I was going to save it for the anniversary of his passing or his birthday but the inference then is that's the only time we think of him and i'm sure for many people that isn't the case. It's based on a list of his favourite 15 albums. I don't doubt it would've been a list that could've changed daily. I only wish he was still here with us to update it. DJ Sean Haley forever ✊

The art of sampling ( and yes it is an art ) has introduced me to many songs and artists over the years. This is a selection of some of my favourites the Beastie Boys have used. No tracklist though, DJ Premier warned me of the dangers of straight up violating. Enjoy, because you can't, you won't and you don't stop….

Foreword by Scorpeze, Sean's friend and collaborator " Chicago is the birthplace of House music. Chicago is synonymous with House music. DJ Sean Haley is synonymous with both. As a native of Chicago, Sean was fiercely loyal to both the city and the music that shaped him. It is because of Sean that I discovered and fell in love with deep, or as they call it now, soulful House music. I learned how to produce House music because of Sean's influence. We produced records together as the production team Windimoto. Now that Sean has departed this earth for another plane of existence, I continue to produce House music. Sean's power of influence is not only stamped on my soul but most people he came in contact with. I'm certain that our dear friend AllyAl can bear witness to Sean's influence. This mix that Al put together oozes Sean's musical essence. Furthermore, we don't need a special date or milestone to give honor to our friend. That is because the ache of Sean's absence will always remain until we see him again. Our love for him is everlasting. Welcome to Sean's House... "So last weekend i was looking through some old CD-R's and I found one that my friend Sean sent about 12/ 13 years ago. Lots of great House Music. I thought it would be a nice idea to put mix together as a tribute to him. I've always wanted to do something and this felt right. So please enjoy 75 minutes of Soulful/ Vocal, Latin infused, Chicago Techno and a smidgen of Acid House ( also includes a couple of Sean solo joints and tracks with his partner in crime Scorpeze as Windimoto ) DJ Sean Haley forever ✊Greener ( Afro Cocktail Mix ) - Cafe Del Terranceo7 Minutes of Funk - GU aka CVO Don't Stop ( U Can Make It ) ft Ugochi - Anthony NicholsonCosmos ( Souled Remix ) - Sandra St. Victor's Sinner Child Kinderteller - Ian Pooley & Spencer Parker Moonscape - Sean HaleyDon't Let Me Leave Alone ft Phonte - WindimotoIn My Lifetime ft Tamara Wellons - EzelLysergic : Blotter ( Vocal ) - PirahnaheadFutureDanceMuzik - Sean Haley Sapporo - BlazeEbony Vibrations - Windimoto

Howdy Hope all is well with you and you’re all staying safe This is my tribute to Madlib, one of the best Hip Hop producers to ever do it imo. Back in the late 90’s me and mate Rees used to make each other mixtapes. We’d try and one up each other by finding mint tunes that other the one hadn’t heard. So spent a lot of time buying underground Hip Hop cd’s. We stumbled on an album called Superrappin’, the stand out track being New Years Resolution by Lootpack. Had never heard of them before but was impressed with a producer that would take on a Preemo sample. Their album Soundpieces : Da Antidote followed and the rest is history. Tunes spanning the last 22 years, please enjoy my Madlib retrospective….

Howdy Hope you’re all well and staying safe “Blood’s thicker than mud, it’s a family affair” One of my favourite and possibly one of the most influential groups of all time, Sly & the Family Stone. Formed in San Fransisco in 1966, the first major American group to have a racially integrated and male/ female line up. This tribute mix features music from their first 5 albums “A Whole New Thing” “Dance To The Music” “Life” “Stand !” and “There’s A Riot Goin’ On” 1967 to 1971. Also the albums that included the original lineup, Sly, Freddie and Rose Stone, Greg Errico, Jerry Martini, Cynthia Robinson and Larry Graham, trailblazers So please enjoy and hours worth of Funk and Psychedelic Soul, some obvious choices, some not so Higher : The Music of Sly & The Family Stone Tracklist Higher ( Intro ) Run, Run, Run Into My Own Thing Trip To Your Heart Advice Sing A Simple Song You Can Make It If You Try Runnin’ Away Thank You ( Falettinme Me Be Mice Elf Again ) ( You Caught Me ) Smilin’ Stand !

Another Pete Rock Remix...... The problem with putting together a tribute mix for a legend like Pete Rock is there’s soooooo much material to choose from, 30 years in the game, it’s hard to break down. So with my selections I tried not to overthink it, some obvious classics and some maybe not so , but guaranteed all killer no filler ( and this is just volume 1 ) So without foither ado, please enjoy PETE ROCKS : Volume 1 : Mixed by AllyAl Tracklist Fades ‘Em All ( Pete Rock Remix ) - Jamal When I’m Flowin’ - Rakim Da Two ft CL Smooth - Pete Rock Respiration ( Pete Rock Remix ft Black Thought ) - Black Star Family Affair ( Pete Rock Remix ft CL Smooth ) - Mary J Blige Tru Master ft Inspectah Deck and Kurrupt - Pete Rock Shut ‘Em Down ( Pete Rock Remix ) - Public Enemy Tinseltown to the Boogiedown ( Pete Rock Variation ft Lee Majors & Mos Def ) - Scritti Polliti By Any Means - Smoke DZA & Benny the Butcher Real Hip Hop ( Pete Rock Remix ) - Das EFX Dilla Bounce ( R.I.P ) - Pete Rock R.A.G.U. ft Raekwon - Ghostface Killah Flow On ( Pete Rock Remix ) - Lords of the Underground Bumpy Knuckles Baby - Bumpy Knuckles If You Got Love - Non-Phixion You Can’t Stop The Prophet ( Pete Rock Remix Instrumental ) - Jeru The Damaja They Reminisce Over You ( T.R.O.Y. ) - Pete Rock & CL Smooth
And now for something completely different..... Howdy Hope you're all well and staying safe. Now then, where to start. The Cocteau Twins, Elizabeth Fraser, Simon Raymonde and Robin Guthrie, one of my favourite groups of all time. Formed in Scotland in 1979 and disbanded in 1997. How to describe them, labelled as Goths initially, dream pop, shoe gaze, ethereal, none of these fully explain their greatness or sound imo. Too hard to pigeonhole, a truly unique band. If there is such a place as heaven and it doesn't sound like Elizabeth Fraser I'm not sure I'd want to go. Probably better if I let their music do the talking for me. Featuring tracks from 1982 through to 1996. Some obvious selections, some not so. Ladies and Gentlemen, please enjoy...The Cocteau Twins tracklist Cherry Coloured Funk ( Seefeel Remix ) Blind Dumb Deaf Violaine Cico Buff Blue Bell Knoll Aikea-Guinea A Kissed Out Red Floatboat Iceblink Luck Bluebeard Carolyn’s Fingers Lorelei Dials Sugar Hiccup Seekers Who Are Lovers Road, River and Rail Pur

Howdy Hope you're all well and staying safe In the late 90's and early 2000's Rawkus records was THE independent Hip Hop label to go to, well, for fans of the East Coast sound at least.
