Hello there. How have you been? It's been a while hasn't it? I haven't dropped a new episode of Retro House Mixtape since before Christmas 2021. I've been on a bit of a break (and I kinda still am) but I had some time to throw a mix together this week so I figured "why not?". Get stuck in to some disco grooves, clubby shufflers and a few stone cold favourites of mine. Enjoy! Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Boom! Out of the blue it's another episode of Retro House Mixtape and this week it's another 'Speed Garage' set. It's probably the last Speed Garage mixtape as I've pretty much burned through all the stand out SG tracks in my collection. Don't forget to check my blog for the full track listing - retrohousemixtape.com Hosted on Acast.

Oi Oi! Sorry it's been a while since the last episode but I've now got a new mix all ready to go. It's a set of tidy bangers, kicking off with some funky, garagey vibes before sliding into something a bit more driving and heavy. Hope you like it!

It's been 25 years this week since Norman Cook put out the Fatboy Slim debut album 'Better Living Through Chemistry'. I thought it would be interesting to put together a mix based on the tracks from the album. Not just a normal mix though, I've been diving into the tracks themselves to pull out loops and samples which are sprinkled through this DJ set. It's a little chaotic but then again that seems on theme when you're talking about Fatboy Slim.   Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

I'm totally switching things up for this episode of Retro House Mixtape as we ditch the retro and dive into a mix of upfront house tunes. This is a mix of three parts as we journey from the bar, to the club and then end up with our hands in the air at the festival.  Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

I'm tapping into a funkier vein of House Music for this episode. Things kick off with a new release from Dave Lee and Horse Meat Disco. I'm very much breaking my own 'Retro House' rules here but this is a classy, timeless sounding tune and I couldn't resist. I also managed to finish with a classic from Frankie Knuckles which was apt seeing as it was recently Frankie Knuckles Day. Happy Frankie Knuckles Day everyone! Hosted on Acast.

Seeing as it's August it felt like a good time to throw together some summer-tinged house tunes. Fitting in with the summer theme, it's worth noting the background image used in the cover artwork. It's a photo I took of lovely Bournemouth beach, just a stone's throw away from where I live (technically a stone throw and a half but you get the idea). Hosted on Acast.

It's time to switch things up on Retro House Mixtape with a new episode based round late 90's/early 2000's Trance bangers. Check it out for some hugely euphoric screamers that will undoubtedly lift your spirits.  Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Hey there! Thanks for tuning in to another episode of Retro House Mixtape. I have another killer selection of house tunes for you both old and new (well, almost new). Hopefully you'll find a couple of decent jams in there that will pick your ears up. Don't forget to follow me on Twitter via @RetroHouseMix or on Instagram via @RetroHouseMixtape.  Hosted on Acast.

I initially didn't feel like putting a mix together this week but after sinking a few whiskey's and jumping on the decks the tunes soon started flowing. In the end I'm pretty happy with the results.  Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

I felt like throwing together an early 90’s set this week. The original plan was that it would be a set of early 90’s funky U.S. Garage but things kinda got away from me. Along the way things morphed into a bit of a rave vibe (playing Energy Flash right at the end was a particular joy). I’m thinking of doing an old skool rave set at some point so this was something of a warm up. Find the track listing on my blog - retrohousemixtape.com Hosted on Acast.

I almost bailed on recording an episode this week as I was a bit under the weather but at the last minute I stumbled across an old archive of mixes and dug this out from April 2010. There's some good stuff in here that I totally forgot about.  Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

For this episode of Retro House Mixtape we take a trip back to approximately ten years ago, roughly around the 2009/2010 mark. Around this time house music was going through a bit of an electronica phase and that's what this mixtape is packed full of.  Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

With the Easter weekend done and dusted it felt like a good time to throw together a few tunes with a summer kinda vibe to them. Warmer days are coming and soon we'll be able to go outside and actually see friends face to face. When you do, make sure to stick this mixtape on as you soak up the sunshine. Good times are on their way.  Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

It's one of the best best weekends of the year, the four day Easter weekend! And I have a great episode of Retro House Mixtape for you to enjoy. Funky house, twisted disco licks and big bassline bangers are all on the menu in this tasty selection. Check my blog - retrohousemixtape.com for the full track listing Hosted on Acast.

Aaaaaaaand we're back. After a few months off it's time for some new episodes of Retro House Mixtape. I'm kinda rebooting things a little bit. Previously I've avoided playing tracks more than once but after 100 episodes I think it's time to relax that rule a little bit and break out some tunes that deserve another dusting off. If you're new to the show don't forget to check out my previous mixes for more Retro House goodness. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Yikes! Here we are, 100 Episodes of Retro House Mixtape. For this episode it's an extra-long mix of some of my all time favourite house tunes.  Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

It's the final step in our trip through the 90's as we dive into the crazy year of 1999. A year when funky disco licks and euphoric trance ruled the house roost. Turn it on and turn it up! Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

As per the last few episodes we move another year further into the 90's and it's a mix of two halves which very much reflects my record buying habits of 1998. It was mostly either funky/disco house or more trancey based fare. There are some cracking retro house tunes in this set.  Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
