It's time I made a new mix for the leggorockers.com/downloads

Any special requests for a theme / genre / artist / era ?

Both good suggestions. I like the DJ clash idea, Dave, as I can cope with that. But I am not sure how much UK roots is in my collection apart from 'Handsworth Revolution' Of course..

Keep them coming!

You never know, I might even shock you with a digital reggae mix up!

agree with bonga. You need some 85-89 mixtape! Check the big labels such as Vena, Firehouse, Sunset, Parish etc...

If I do a digi mix, you'll have to make do with what I have on vinyl as I ONLY mix these up live with my own vinyl. Non stop recording with no computer editing at all.

so how are you going to create an mp3 without computer editing ?

I record - I don't edit.

Of course I encode to MP3, or they wouldn't be downloads.

BUT I do not use any waveform or other editing software.

I don't even use a computer to do this, at least not a PC.

Instead I use an I-Key USB recxorder and a flash drive.

I record the sets in one go, non stop, from start to finish, using my twin Technics sl1210s and a DJ mixer just as if I was at a club.

I am simply recording as if it was cassette.

And that, Bonga, is not computer editing.
