Ultra Dirt 7 carries on the series with another dose of darker beats, filthy basslines and driving house rhythms.
The Ultra Dirt mixes had really taken on a life of their own by now, bringing in a different crowd and showing another side to my DJ style. This mix keeps that late-night, tougher club atmosphere running throughout.
Thanks for listening and for the continued support.

Ultra Dirt 6 takes the Ultra Dirt sound deeper into the darker side of house, with a mix full of heavier rhythms and twisted club tracks.
By this point, the series had built a strong following and was attracting listeners who wanted something tougher than the vocal and funky house sets I was also putting out. This one keeps that dirty house identity firmly in place.
Thanks for listening and for the continued support.

Ultra Dirt 5 continues the series with more of the chunky, bass-heavy dirty house sound that had really started to define Ultra Dirt.
What began as something a bit different for me had now become a full mix series in its own right. This edition keeps that darker club feel going, while still bringing plenty of energy and attitude.
Thanks for listening and for the continued support.

Ultra Dirt 4 keeps the Ultra Dirt series moving with another session of darker house sounds and driving club energy.
This mix follows the same tougher direction that made the earlier editions so popular. It is packed with dirty house grooves, big beats and the kind of tracks that worked well when you wanted something a bit harder and more twisted.
Thanks for listening and for the continued support.

Ultra Dirt 3 builds on the sound of the first two mixes, keeping that twisted and energetic dirty house style running strong.
By this stage, the Ultra Dirt mixes had become a regular change of direction from the funkier house sets I was also known for. This one keeps the pressure on with tougher tracks and a more late-night club feel.
Thanks for listening and for the continued support.

Ultra Dirt 2 continued the darker and tougher house sound that started with the first mix in the series.
After the response to Ultra Dirt 1, I wanted to push further into that dirty house vibe with more driving beats, heavier grooves and a slightly more underground edge. It was clear by this point that the series had found its audience.
Thanks for listening and for the continued support.
