about

The mixes...
Time To Awesome - Brighton-based beat-masters bust out some bombs.
Dr. Bad Touch - Hard head-nod hip-hop heaters.
Matter Of Fact - My favourite mix from all of the 5x5 series! On repeat in the car stereo for many many months. I gotta say "Yes Luke!"
Powlo - Monster 140 genre mash, tweaked for the floor.
Infinite Soul - Bass-heavy wompers.

Given out when we first started seperating our events into subgenre events. This one we called "Critical Beatdown" and we had the awesome Kutmah guest DJ with us.

A new decade, a new mix series! 2010 saw us begin the 5x5 theme. The premise is super simple - 5 djs mix 5 tunes each. With only 4 resident djs, we had to ask our friends and fellow djs for contributions.

5x5 - a limited series of 50-copy CDRs given out at Thirsty Ear nights from 2010. This is the first time these mixes have been online. Terrible artwork recreated in authentic style from the posters of the time!
