Released initially somewhere in early 2015 under different artwork and the mix title, “All The Gold”. This was a set I put together for an ambitious art project’s fundraiser. I’m always down for a good art project, and this one was extra cool, so I wanted to do my part even though I wasn’t able to make it out to Flipside that year. A few years later I revisited this mix and changed both the name and the artwork for it. I was working on developing a “grime art” style and this seemed like a fun project to work on. I don’t think I even promoted the original very much but this is one of my favorite mixes I’ve ever done.
theWaxhole.com - Weekly Wax Vol 17 Mixed by Joseph Noctum
So what do you do when you are working with a kickass music blog and the DJ who is supposed to be dropping a guest mix for the blog drops an email the night before saying it won’t be done? You step up to the plate. That’s what this is a pinch-hit. With nothing really in the pipeline because my sets hadn’t really been in line with the Future Bass sound The Waxhole and crew had been pushing I decided to grab tracks the blog had recently posted and do a quick 30 min studio mix for the team. It worked and brought me into a new mindset to work more Future Bass into my sets. This was also a catalyst for a weekly feature I started with Waxhole called “Fourplay Fridays” which featured four new sexy and chilled-out Future Bass songs every week. I even eventually returned in Volume 27 of the Weekly Wax and did a whole hour set tunes featured on Fourplay Fridays.
