Yeah I missed putting out an episode last week. Sorry about that. Hopefully this banger of an episode makes up for it.

Listen on Mixcloud

I’ve gone for a lower tempo for this episode. starting at around the 120bpm range where things have little more of a disco feel to them. There’s a favourite tune of mine early in the mix, “Number 1” by Playgroup. I very much recommend checking out the excellent music video that goes with the song. Finishing off the mix is a big hands-in-air anthem “U Sure Do” from Strike. Almost verging into cheese really, but this remix is something I used to play out a lot at the time and I think it sits nicely at the end of this episode.

Tracklisting:

1. Melvo Baptiste – Bad Company (feat. Phebe Edwards) [Extended Mix]
2. Rob Base & DJ EZ Rock – It Takes Two (acapella)
3. Playgroup – Number 1
4. Bo Saris – Shes On Fire (Maya Jane Coles Remix)
5. Newbie Nerdz – Love We Had (Extended Mix)
6. Mylo – In Your Arms (Linus Loves Remix)
7. Tensnake / Low Steppa – Coma Cat (Low Steppa Raw House Edit)
8. Loveland – Let The Music Lift You Up (TP’s Uplifting Mix)
9. Kim English – Supernatural (Mousse T.’s Raw Vocal Mix)
10. Boris D’lugosch feat. Inaya Day – Keep Pushin’
11. Grant Nelson – Move Close (Brixton Rub)

The post Episode 78 appeared first on Retro House Mixtape.

It’s the penultimate episode of Retro House Mixtape for 2018 and I promise you that this is a 100% #Whamageddon safe zone. I got a bit carried away this week which is why the episode runs a little longer than usual. Maybe I’m just a little excited about next week’s bumper end-of-year episode. 

There are some big house movers in this week’s mix; Jocelyn Brown makes her Retro House Mixtape debut at the start of the mix and then re-appears later on with Da Mob for ‘Fun’. Alan Braxe pops up with his crazy disco hat on. David Morales drops by with his classic ‘Needin’ U’. There’s a surprise appearance by Erick Morillo’s 90’s pop project ‘Reel 2 Real’ via a remix by DJ Duke. Deep Dish also makes their second appearance in as many weeks with their sublime track ‘Say Hello’.

Hope you enjoy it this week. Don’t forget to favourite/repost and share online. Big thanks.
