Pete Tong and the people at BBC have brought us yet another smashing mix during their weekly radio show BBC Radio 1’s Essential Mix. The featured artist this week is an English music producer and remix artist that is also a member of the band The xx. This cat has produced albums for both his band as well as his solo career as well as countless remixes including a fire remix with Adele, Rolling in the Heat. This 2 HOUR mix starts off slow with some chilled out disco and boogie tracks, but picks up later on with some filthy garage and house tracks to wake you up. I recommend playing this Monday morning to start off the week as I know how much it sucks to try and select individual songs that early in the week. But don’t worry that disco feel is apparent throughout, so go ahead and download and let yourself cruise through the day. Tracklist available after the jump.
Broadcast on BBC Radio 1, 27th August 2011.
