New Mix: Guest Mix for Solid Steel

I'm very happy to announce that a guest mix I have recorded has been featured on this week's Solid Steel podcast! You can check it out below. My part starts at 31:20!

Solid Steel (21st March) It's two guests in Hour 1 starting with the return of Neuropol ahead of the release of his new EP on Monday. It's a mix that took in a snapshot of the vast array of music that has inspired him in his own productions and it also includes a couple of cuts from his forthcoming Warning Ep on SGN:LTD. As with his productions he focused on the contrast between emotion/depth and tough beats and bass, with tracks from Moresounds, Fracture, Sam Binga and DBridge.
