For the Record is a conversation series where we speak with all manner of music heads — DJs, music journos, indie label captains, record shop owners, listening bar kingpins, et al — about their stories + the music that makes them. Join the Crate Coalition: https://discord.gg/sAaG6a7bv4 Dicky Trisco is a DJ and music producer who lives and breathes what he does. His passion for music and desire for good times is well known. He has spent years chasing that sound and that feeling around the globe as an international DJ. For him DJing is all about people. He is addicted to the way music connects people and makes for better days. Dicky really broke through as a DJ and producer in the Nu Disco/Disco Revival years from around 2004. In particular, his run of DJ edit, original and remix releases alongside Balearic House hero Pete Herbert on Disco Deviance and Maxi Discs led to him becoming an increasingly in demand DJ with a busy international touring schedule. He is also rumoured to be the force behind the rather legendary Secret Squirrel vinyl only imprint. But who knows??? It's a secret. Since those early days, Dicky has toured constantly around Asia, Australia, Central/South America, USA, Europe and the UK sharing the music and the sound he loves. He has also become a regular at a long list of high profile festivals including the legendary Glastonbury, Electric Elephant, Mareh, Love International, Festival No 6 and many more. Dicky is also a mainstay of the local scene in his hometown of Dundee, Scotland where he was a resident of the infamous ‘Small Town Club' aka Reading Rooms for over a decade. At nights like Autodisco, Disco Deviance, A Night With and Non Stop, he learned his trade playing alongside many of his heroes and legendary DJs from around the world such as Andrew Weatherall, Optimo, Rahaan, Jazzie B, Horse Meat Disco, Farley Jackmaster and many more. Dicky also ran and curated the well-respected House music label Home Taping Is Killing Music for many years putting out a run of amazing releases. Home Taping broke a number of great House artists who have gone on to become household names in the scene including The Blessed Madonna, The Revenge, Nicholas, Borrowed Identity, Eddie C & Medlar amongst others. Dicky continues to discover, produce and remix music for a number of quality imprints including Razor-N-Tape, File Under Disco, Home Taping, Barefoot Beats, Nervous Records and many more. He has also remixed major artists such as Bryan Ferry, Belle & Sebastian, L'Impératrice, Edwyn Collins (Orange Juice), Danielle Baldelli, Faze Action, The Orielles, Golden Dawn Arkestra and Tensnake down in his basement studio. Most recently Dicky has been creating original music alongside NYC music machine JKriv under the name Sentimental Animals for the Razor-N-Tape imprint. Their Love Vibration EP was very well received by disc jockeys around the world and has been played by the likes of Craig Charles who made it one of his Tracks of 2021 on his BBC Radio 6 Funk & Soul show. Dicky became a resident DJ at Pikes in Ibiza in the summer of 2023 playing in every area - poolside, terrace, Freddies, bathtub - in this legendary club. He also kick started a monthly radio show out of Ibiza called International Sounds on OpenLab Radio where he showcases the music he discovers, makes and plays while travelling around the globe. As a disc jockey, DT packs a little bit of everything into his sets of International Sounds and is committed to the idea that music and club nights should be all about escapism, joy and togetherness. As Dicky says love and dancing is what we need. Amen to that.

Today marks what would have been the Guv'nor's 60th birthday. As a little nod to the late great Andrew Weatherall we've re-sharing an old mix of his alongside Sean Johnston, recorded in the lead up to Electric Elephant 11 years ago, which was only previously available on Mixcloud. This came just a year into the duo's journey as ALFOS and their now infamous project which Andrew described as “an oasis of slowness in a world of increasing velocity”. A solid slice of oompty boompty music to see you into the weekend. Stick it on and raise a glass to the chairman!

The Northern powerhouse is assured as east squares off against west in the latest DjH podcast. With Bill Brewster in the Grimsby fishwives corner interviewing special guest Luke Una via the M62 from Manchester.

For episode 67, we bring to you this sublime mix from Rotterdam based Imster. We first met Imster at the excellent Electric Elephant festival at The Garden Tisno, in Croatia. In 2017, BTTB's Curtis Randles joined Imster on the bill of The Lost Disco festival on the same site. Some late night conversations about music and life, hearing Imster's selections, and plenty of dancing led to us asking him if he would be interested in providing a mix for you lovely people. Whether it be disco, funk, house or soul, obscure finds or absolute classics, as long as it provides a good feeling, Imster is happy to play it. This will be come self evident when you sit back and listen to Imster's mix. Inspired by lazy afternoons in Tisno, hopefully his mix will bring some of that Adriatic sunshine to where you are... xhttps://www.facebook.com/discobus

Bonding over a love of quality music, it was only a matter of time before we asked him to provide a selection for BTTB.Sit back and enjoy the sunshine sounds..

Andy und ich waren im Schumann's frühstücken. Außerdem unterhalten wir uns über die besten Gäste der Welt und das Electric Elephant.

After finishing off the house mix with mainly jackin and soulful tunes yesterday I decided to make another mix before our trip to see Norman Jay at Electric Elephant festival in Croatia tomorrow. I couldn't not do a Drum and Bass mix and I spent the early hours of the morning filtering loads of tunes and while I didn't have as long as I would have liked to do my research I was really happy when it came to recording the mix with the output. This is just over 2 hours of my favourite Drum and Bass, jazzy, rolling, funky, uplifting, progressive beats with fat baselines and vocals. Record labels include Hospital, RAM, 3beat, UKF, Hybrid and Sun and Bass recordings to name a few. Tunes from London Electricity, Hybrid Minds, Sigma, Calibre, Hugh Hardie, Nu:Logic, etc. I will be back later this month with more music. In the meantime get your system on, connect the biggest sub woofer you can find and turn this badboy up!

To call Chris Massey a jack of trades when it comes to music production, DJing and label work is definitely not an exaggeration. His engagement in legendary clubs like the Warehouse Project or the Electric Elephant festival in Croatia and his productions for Southern Fried and Paper Recordings are among the milestones that recently catapulted Chris Massey to fame. His affinity for "genre hopping" is a big part of the ideology behind his new label Sprechen and his eclectic mixes, of which we acquired one for our LUVCAST series - Drink it in! Tracklist: 01. Jp Soul & Anthony Mansfield - Everything Is real 02. Eskimo Twins feat. Justine - Je M’Ennuie 03. The Access - Bartapas 04. Mason - Let It Go 05. Roommates - Bangala 06. Faze Action - Mangwana 07.
