Its been a while since I posted a set of any description, and thats probably because there hasn’t been too much blowing my mind recently, apart from perhaps the outstanding Maya Jane Coles Esssential Mix, but anyway… The reason why I’ll encourage the following is not just because its a little bit closer to home, but mainly because I just prefer it because its so damn good.
Stevie Russell is known by most as an outstanding new filmmaking talent in both the commercial and creative realm, but on the side, he’s recently begun to show off a little bit of DJ tekkers, producing the odd intriguing and eclectic set, to showing up the likes of Benoit and Sergio in Dublin’s Pygmalion. This latest ‘Indian Summer’ set is the best thing I’ve heard him put together so far, and it is custom built for repeat listening. Its brilliantly constructed and flows seamlessly. After an initial build, It has a fantastically consistent rhythm, drive and bounce throughout, whilst maintaining a total freshness (I think I only recognised one of the tracks from before) So clearly, while there’s an ear for the great individual tracks, the nous and knack for what it takes to build a meticulously crafted and flowing set is there in abundance. I’m going to listen to it yet again, you should too… ‘Serious Bop’
Only problem is if this progress keeps up he might have to reconsider which one is the day job…
