Gym Mix 14 December 2009

This is a mix I made to listen to while visiting the gym. Now you too can enjoy my musical gateway to weight-loss, fitness and the toned abs, thighs and buns of your wildest dreams.

The mix begins with an Ivor Cutler song, during which you should do your stretches, paying special attention to those areas that will be under stress during your exercises. Now would also be a good time to take on fluids to avoid overheating. As the dOP remix of Teddy’s Back fades ease gently into your fitness regime. By the time the singer sings his falsetto ‘lost in the Berghaim’ you should be at 100% effort. I have sequenced and mixed the music to progressively get more boshing to motivate the gym-goer as fatigue sets in. When you hear Ivor Cutler singing a second song it is time to stop exercising and get a drink of water, as the main part of the session is over. If there is a sauna in your gym, you would be wise to use it while you listen to Jon Hopkins’ remix of James Yorkston to clean the pores and settle the mind. When the mix is over you may go home.

Friendly Fires exempts itself from any liability for injury or death while listening to the mix. Not for those who are pregnant or suffer heart disorders. Users experiencing chest pains should stop exercise IMMEDIATELY and consult a physician.

Yours in wellness

Annie Mac Minimix 14 December 2009

Here’s a minimix I (Jack) did for Annie Mac’s Mash-Up show on Radio 1. Its not as good as the amazing ones that have a proper theme, and use about 20 billion songs, but it seems to work musically, just about. If there must be a theme, it is ‘Some Songs That I Like With A Disproportionately Heavy Weighting Towards The Warp Classics Compilation (Which Is Without Any Shadow Of A Doubt my Favourite Compilation Ever, And Bears Much Of The Responsibility For My Being Into House Music)’

The Dummy Mix 14 December 2009

By Jack and Ed Mac.


Essential Mix for Radio 1 by Ed Mac and Jack 16 October 2009

Pete Tong asked us to do an Essential Mix, which was something of a thrill. Many a time have I tuned into here his slick radio voice intoning “from the famous Radio 1 studios, on the worlds biggest turntables”. I can, however, vouch that the turntables were more or less average size. Here’s the mix free from those sensual, whispered idents that they chuck around far too liberally, in my humble opinion.

Alexandro Jodorowsky ‘F Machine’ (Soundtrack)
Tony Lionni ‘Found a Place’
Luke Solomon ‘People, Places, Thoughts and Faces (Ajello ReMix)’
David Labeij ‘Shakedown’
Just Two Ordinary People ‘Lucky Times (Paul Frick ReMix)’

Pezzner ‘Shasta’
Mark Broom and Brothers Vibe ‘Mind/Feeling (youANDme Hirsch Edit)’
Makam ‘New York Hustler’
Arto Mwambe ‘Ombala Mbembo’ (Brontosaurus Records)
Michel Cleis ‘La Mezcla’ (Cadenza)
Visti & Meyland ‘Yes Ma’am (Kasper Bjorke Mix)’-
dOP ‘The Genius of the Crowd’
STL ‘Something Is Raw’
Alec Wizz ‘Drummin (H2O Mix)’
Liquid Liquid ‘Optimo (Optimo ReMix)’
Silver City ‘Pendulo (Pete Herbert Edit)’
Anton Pieete ‘Players’
Harry Axt ‘Crazy’ (Rompecabeza)
Daniele Papini ‘Church of Nonsense’
Cajmere ‘Say U Will’
Friendly Fires ‘Jump In The Pool (Wild Geese Mix)’
Photonz ‘No Fear’ (Dissident)
