And theres more! When you have two killer cuts and two amazing vocalists, myriad options present themselves. What twists and turns can we take with these beauties to help spread the word of their sonic luminescence further and wider? Thus, we proudly present part two of our The Call / Rollin On double header. Having previously unleashed two epic versions of The Call in Andrews original full vocal and instrumental versions, three more interpretations here complete a hard hitting five-star collection. Jim Rivers, veteran of Bedrock and Renaissance and more recently heard killing it on Poker Flat, takes the road more dubby, with snatches of Andres vocal teased in and around an altogether tougher re-rub that will undoubtedly find favour in the darker recesses of discerning dancefloors far and wide, as it builds towards its epic crescendo. The Ambient mix has already found favour with chill out dons Pete Gooding and Phat Phil Cooper – this beatless beauty will be soundtracking a White Isle sunset near you soon. Meanwhile the Radio Edit distils the wondrous essence of the lengthy main version into four magnificent minutes. Meanwhile Mr Sant continues to spoil us, delivering an acidic throbber of a dub excursion on Rollin On, a perfect complement to the full vocal version, with just enough of Paulines vocal exhortations to ensure recognition and exhilaration. Team Selador – On and on. x

It might be an impossibly beautiful chord progression…a haunting vocal…a simple bassline throb…some intricate percussion…or all of the above and more. What we love about house, techno and all the flavours inbetween is how, more than any other form of music, they can stop you in your tracks, induce goosebumps on the spot, and leave you saying to anyone who is within earshot – what is that track / have you heard THIS / where the hell can I get it? Thats why we do what we do, pure and simple. And Andrew Sant has delivered not one, but two tunes which do all of the above by the truckload. The Call first reared its head on our Showcase 20 collection, and instantly demanded a stand-alone release. Andre Espeuts oh so soulful vocal – part sung / part spoken – allied to Andrews exquisite piano motifs are house music at its most timeless and pure. This release includes its brand new mastering, and also features an instrumental version that is dynamite in its own right. And theres more! Rollin On sees Andrew team up with another brilliant vocalist, no less than Pauline Taylor, famous for her work with Rollos Cheeky stable in the 90s, and more recently with leading house imprints Classic, Nervous and F*CLR. A characteristically powerhouse vocal performance rides atop a stirring, peak time acid-tinged monster. Special stuff folks - and watch out for remixes / alternate takes coming on a second, follow up EP! Team Selador – Inducing Goosebumps Since 2013

We've been having great fun in Programming By Stealth learning how to use Jekyll to create a website using GitHub Pages. This week Bart goes through the challenge he left us with last time — to add a nav bar to our little static website using Bootstrap 5 along with Jekyll and Liquid templates. Bart had a lot of fun with his solution so it was fun to hear him dust off the cobwebs on Bootstrap. Then we turn to learning about Jekyll's `includes` feature, which is reusable snippets similar to how TextExpander snippets let you write something and change it in only one place. The worked examples simplify the code in a way, and we learn how to use `includes` to create advanced image markup. I also enjoyed learning about Liquid comments and how you can create white space between sections of your code for ease of writing and debugging that then never show up in the resultant HTML.

She unpacks the power of proximity, how to get into the right rooms, and the real art of visibility that leads to booked-out services and dream collaborations.Snippets from the episode: This one interview alone got me 500 new followers, a one-on-one roster booked out for six months… People stayed in my world for over four years because of one podcast interview.We're not here to just operate with people chasing views and vanity. When you're putting yourself in someone else's orbit, you're doing it because you're aligned—values, vision, and vibe.If you're not consuming someone's content on a pretty regular basis, the pitch is going to be harder for you. Do your homework.Proximity creates familiarity. Familiarity builds trust. Trust opens doors.This isn't just about networking—it's about creating actual relationships that open portals, not just doors.This episode is your permission slip to stop chasing random likes and start curating your own corner of the internet where visibility leads to actual opportunities (and maybe a few dream DMs).
