Steve Gilmore and In No Sense

Growing Room Growing Room
I had the classical sections of this track hanging around forever while waiting for something to come along it would add itself too. It was only this year that I finally managed to construct the right kind of track to go around it. Why classical?
Reach My Soul (It's So Easy) 2006 Remix Reach My Soul (It's So Easy) 2006 Remix
A remixed and remastered track originally issued back in 2002 as part of the 'The Real Dance Music' CD, which first reached a much wider audience than I have ever had before. This track seemed to turn up everywhere over the next couple of years an
Ellwood and Other Legends Ellwood and Other Legends
Back in the dawn of the internet, music junkies like me feasted on crazy contraptions called Bulletin Boards (or BBS) and in them days of minimum baudiness, small was very, very cool. It didn't mean that the music was in any way small, it inspired
Learning To Fly Learning To Fly
Definitely the longest running track in terms of time I have spent on it. This track has been hanging around my hard drive for around four years and I'm sure a few of my mates will have sly chuckle when they realise where I got my inspiration. Thi
Dipole States Dipole States
Music from two sides of the world: Africa and China and God knows where the inspiration for this came from. I know it shouldn't work, but hey, it does doesn't it?
Night Calls Night Calls
A bit more electronica than is normal for me but once I discovered this groove it seemed so suitable. The vocals in the middle are authentic American Indian chants and dances.
Giving Thanks Giving Thanks
Like most people I know, I live, eat, sleep and even dream music. Ever since I was a little kid I've had my own soundtrack going on inside me, and it has saved my life more times than I can count. This is a heartfelt thank you note.
Mixed Messages Mixed Messages
A bit of a mixed bag all around this track, really. It tells you to do one thing, then another. It starts in one spot, sashays all over the place without rhyme or reason and is as funky as all get out.
Escalantanda Escalantanda
This track is a kinda/sorta expedition in Spanish classical because I love all the sounds that go into making this most wonderful of music. I sincerely hope I have done it some justice because I sure tried hard enough.
The Sands Of Merzouga The Sands Of Merzouga
Merzouga is a place in Morocco, right on the edge of the great Sahara desert, that has the distinction of the highest sand dunes in the world. An awesome spot and one I thought of a lot while making this track. I think it shows.
The Big Chili The Big Chili
A jazzy Indian, if ya please and be quick about it :D Give this track a bit of time, it isn't as strange as it first appears. My usual blend of everything I can lay my hands on; if it moves, mix it.
Bigger Picture Bigger Picture
My own favourite track from this CD, I just love this bassline - it's relentless. It's one of those tracks that just keeps building and building until you think your head is going to burst. Don't say you haven't been warned.
Carried On The Wind Carried On The Wind
I've always liked the intensity, verve and rhythmic complexity of traditional Celtic music, particularly of the Scots or Irish strains, so this is my nod in that direction.
I'll Praise Your Name I'll Praise Your Name
A blend of South African township music and American Baptist choirs... Although it obviously carries a Christian message, please don't take that to mean I'm yet another born again. Unless it's a born again cynic, that is...
Gimmie A Dance Now (Grind Mix) Gimmie A Dance Now (Grind Mix)
Basically a cross between Jamaican dancehall and smoochie soul that has to be heard to be believed. As hard as a rock and soft as butter. It may take a while to infect you, but I wouldn't be willing to bet on it.
Taifunami Taifunami
A cross between a typhoon and a tsunami? Lot's of eastern influence in this as well as dead white dude outros. If you liked Kasha, this should sit right alongside of it. At almost seven minutes this is a bit of an epic...
Turning The Other Cheek Turning The Other Cheek
I downloaded the samples for this remix and then promptly forgot where the damn site for it was. I missed the compo date by a mile so I stripped out all the original samples but a bassline and a couple of effects and rebuilt it into this track.
Those Eyes (Mascara Mix) Those Eyes (Mascara Mix)
When I do remixes my favourites are always the ones that feature good female vocals and Those Eyes has a great sampleset. A bit more on the rocky side too, which I also happen to be well partial too. This is my entry into Acidplanet's remix compo.
Jamaican Tango Remastered Jamaican Tango Remastered
By far one of my most successful tracks, Jamaican Tango has undergone a shiny new revamp. King Dubby got me back into this and King Dubby version may also be in the works...
Not The Way To Do It Remastered Not The Way To Do It Remastered
A track originally released on 2003's Musical Clowns CD, in my current dub mood I thought I might give it a new going over. I always liked the quirkiness and flow of this track and that is what I've tried to bring out with this new mix.
