This months podcast mix is from someone I can only describe as a true gent, in my eyes he’s also one of the quickest up and coming DJs on the cicruit, with gigs coming out of his ears at Space and Fabric to name a few, it is of course none other than the man like Sick Rick.
This mix is a true gem, and reminds me somewhat of a young Zabiela’s mixtapes before he discovered Pioneer FX units & CDJs. Definitely worth checking out, and keep an eye on this man.
Also keep an eye on my envy of his ever flowing talent and seemingly immaculate track selection.
I asked him to write me a bit about the mix and that for the site, but he came up with this warble instead, which describes him and his Mum far better than I ever could…
A podcast mix. By me. A memoir.
Hello, my name’s Rick. For a multitude of dull and long-winded reasons I DJ as Sick Rick. You may also know me from my records with the rather hot Alex Metric on Stanton Warriors’ Beats label. Or you may not.
Below is a podcast that was, in fact, never intended to be a podcast. Itâ’s actually a mix I did for my mum a couple of months ago. Her favourite tunes on it are Bushwacka!’s mix of Frankie Valentine and the Zabiela mix of Drink Deep (no shit, she likes em better than the two remixes of mine that are on there).
I tried to smush together as many different styles as I could while keeping a bit of a focus on melody (it is for a bird, after all). There’s a load of old (but still good) stuff on there, and some new bits too, including an exclusive What What What remix of Stanton Warriors’ Seeker track.
I hope you like all of it, really I do.
