All week it looked like this was going to be a wet one, but the rain held off, just about, and it was a welcome warm day. The vibe on this boat gets better and better each trip, of which there are several each year and this was another sell out. I was thrilled throwing this mix together; had no idea what I was gonna play although I'd bought some new tunes the night before that would obviously get a look in. There's productions from my usual favourites like Lee Mortimer, HiJack, and there's also works from Stupid Fresh, Deadmau5, Jon Gurd, oh and a belter known only as Mr Whobble ;)

Geeky note: as you may be able to tell, I've discovered the bit-crunch effect.

Recorded live on 4th May 2008 on a boat on The Thames in Oxford for Simple & Slide.

PS, I've recently set up a Facebook Page and I need a fan base!
Become a fan of James Weston if you like what you hear :D If you all join at once, then no-one need be on their own ;)

Catch me this Saturday at Simple with Crookers and this week's Essential Mix selected resident Tom Maddicott from Moles Club in Bath.

The next Bank Holiday boat party is on Sunday 25th May although the line up has yet to be confirmed.

My mix and my website is hosted with environmentally friendly carbon neutral (and all that jazz) hosting from 1&1.

This mix is siQ, absolutely brilliant, nice to download a new set after the long absence!

Cheers, Travis! Had a lot of fun making it! :) Will be posting a back log soon, but I thought I ought to get my latest one up.

Game on !
