Cub is a commercial house mix featuring a selection of uplifting club tracks and dancefloor favourites.
Recorded around the time I was playing regularly on the Manchester scene, this mix leans towards the more commercial side of house, bringing together energetic beats, big vocals and feel good club sounds.
If you enjoy the mix, please feel free to share it.

Three years after Trance Sessions Vol. 1, I returned to one of my favourite genres with Trance Sessions Vol. 2.
Although I'm best known for uplifting house, funky house and vocal house, trance has always been a style of music I've enjoyed listening to and mixing. This set continues that journey, bringing together uplifting melodies, powerful breakdowns and driving beats inspired by the sound that was filling clubs and festivals in 2011.
Like the first volume, this wasn't recorded for a club night or live event. It was simply an opportunity to step away from my usual house sets and enjoy mixing another genre that has always been close to my heart.
If you enjoyed Trance Sessions Vol. 1, I hope you'll enjoy this second instalment just as much.
If you enjoy the mix, please feel free to share it.
Thanks for listening and for your support.

This mix was recorded around the time I played at Northern Pride in Newcastle for the Come to Daddy (C2D) event on Saturday 16 July 2011.
Northern Pride is one of the largest LGBT festivals in the North East of England, bringing together thousands of people each year for a weekend of celebrations, music and community events across the city.
This mix was put together to capture the kind of music that worked perfectly for a Pride crowd, uplifting house tracks, big vocals and plenty of dancefloor energy.
If you enjoy the mix, please feel free to share it.
Thanks for listening and for your support.

This mix was recorded to help support a 26 mile charity walk I completed in June 2011 to raise money for Help for Heroes.
Help for Heroes is a UK charity that supports wounded veterans and serving members of the British Armed Forces. The cause was particularly meaningful to me, as I grew up on RAF bases and my Dad, Mum and Brother all served in the Royal Air Force.
The mix was originally shared to help raise awareness and support for the walk, bringing together a selection of uplifting house tracks to keep the energy high.
If you enjoy the mix, please feel free to share it.
Thanks for listening and for your support.

The second instalment of the V2 mix series, inspired by the sets I used to play downstairs at Via Fossa on Canal Street in Manchester.
Named after the V2 bar area within the venue, this mix continues the same sound that worked so well in that room, chunky house with dirty and progressive elements designed for a lively Village dancefloor.
If you enjoy the mix, please feel free to share it.
Thanks for listening and for your support.
