Music and mixes by GenErik, Chat Noir and friends
Went to BRLN. Red lights. I wanted this to happen. So I made it happen.
2014 remix I never put up for some reason. It's epic. Fans can download

Another year, another take on Take on Me. I've been using this track as a barometer for how far my mixing and mastering skills improve each year. Each year I create a better version of this track from its original RAW studio takes to hope to at least equal or better the original mix whilst also make it more DJ friendly and add some subtle twists. This year my benchmark was the 2015 video mix remaster - which I consider the gold standard for this track. A/Bing this was a hoot - I've finally matched the snaps and general sonic signature whilst making it more saturated and modern - in line with the 80s new wave revival from The Weekend (whose A-ha cribbing Blinding Lights beats I've subtly repurposed in this mix - as the only non-original element). I think it's a vast step up from my previous efforts and I hope I make it even better next year.
The night I ruined Cloudland by making too many people happy. Yet they wanted me back :o (for parties only)
Quick two hour set of house so was able to experiment and mash on the fly.
A rare fully original remix. Wasn't sure about it until I saw the dancefloors going nuts when I played it.
Producer of the highest quality product since 1995.
Giving this track the EPIC rework it deserves.

Another in a series of revisiting older remixes and re-edits with better mixing and mastering skills
*** FOR DJ USE ONLY *** This is a mash of my reconstructed House of Pain - Jump Around to include Kris Kross - Jump, as I would more often than not mix them together anyway. The result has been dancefloor tested and it's a guaranteed heater. DJ Muggs from Cypress Hill made the beat for “Jump Around” and played it for a few of his friends, like Ice Cube, who passed on it . Everlast wrote the rhymes and it became a House Of Pain demo, famously dismissed by Joe “The Butcher” Nicolo, whose own Ruffhouse Records later “coincidentally” released the song “Jump” by the group Kris Kross (also produced by Muggs). This earned the record exec the nickname “Joe The Biter,” as heard at the end of the album version of “Jump Around”.

Fourth time revisiting this remix I originally did in 2005 in GarageBand. It still slaps.
Lush binaural re-think of this Talk Talk classic, featuring new keys by Josh Creek.

A lo fi hip hop track from the Marvin Gaye's What's Going On instrumental stems.
A lush take on an acapella version of Marvin Gaye. Inspired by its use in Da 5 Bloods
Quick edit to minimise the cringe second hook part from Flav. Fire track otherwise!
Chat Noir's 12" remix that never was. (Buy: 24bit 96khz ALAC).
Big call? You decide. First live gig since isolation. City Winery popup wine event 23.05.2020.

One hour mix for Nocturnals DJ competition. Any genre, so I chose to mix something close to heart for me - soulful ethereal ambient and dank space disco. Some of it my own, some from my country, some from my hometown (Bergen, Norway). The two tracks I chose to include released after March 01 2020 were both Aphex Twin brand new releases qu1 and prememory100N pt2. The BPM fluidly shifts throughout, from a low of 70 to a blistering 198 BPM - but is meant to put you in a chill mindspace throughout even through the dank house grooves that make you shuffle your feet at the half way mark. It is as the label proclaims, nocturnal. This is one for headphones, mary j, or just a big ass sound system with an open mind dancing away on a sunbeam.
The MASS afterparty. Anything went. And it went for even longer, but the recording ran out :P

Challenge: Only mix songs from the current ARIA top 40 chart. Fun one take, 20 minutes mix. This is my first time ever hearing most of these tracks.
