GUEST MIX #15
JOE CARTER
5TH DECEMBER 2020
LONDON, UK
JOE GOT HIS FIRST PAIR OF TURNTABLES AT THE TENDER AGE OF 15, JUST AS UK GARAGE WAS TAKING A FIRM HOLD ON THE LONDON MUSIC SCENE.
IN HIS FIRST WEEK AT UNIVERSITY, JOE WON A MINISTRY OF SOUND DJ COMPETITION AND WENT ON TO HOST NUMEROUS CLUB RESIDENCIES PLAYING AN ARRAY OF HOUSE, GARAGE, R&B, SOUL, DISCO AND MORE.
JOE HAS PLAYED AT MULTIPLE UK FESTIVALS INCLUDING GLASTONBURY, BESTIVAL, ELECTRIC PICNIC & STANDON CALLING TO NAME A FEW.
THESE DAYS YOU CAN CATCH HIM HOSTING HIS OWN PARTY, BEHIND THE GROOVE, AMONGST OTHERS PLAYING HIS UNIQUE, ECLECTIC BLEND OF NU-DISCO, SOULFUL HOUSE, CLASSIC DISCO AND SOUL MUSIC.
“I AM SO HAPPY TO BE A PART OF THE DISCOGRAPHY LESSONS. BEING ABLE TO PROVIDE A SLICE OF POSITIVITY TO THIS EVER GROWING CATALOGUE OF MIXES IS AWESOME AND I HOPE IT CONTINUES TO GROW AND EVOLVE.
WHEN IT CAME TO PUTTING THIS MIX TOGETHER, I REALLY CAREFULLY SELECTED THE TUNES WHICH I HAVE A PERSONAL CONNECTION WITH, THOSE TUNES THAT HELP TO GIVE ME A LIFT AND RAISE MY SPIRITS. I HOPE THEY CAN DO THE SAME FOR YOU!
I THOUGHT ABOUT THOSE DISCO AND HOUSE CLASSICS WHICH WE ALL KNOW & LOVE AND PLAYED SOME OF MY FAVOURITE REMIXES OF THEM FROM THE GREATEST PRODUCERS AROUND THE WORLD, WITH A COUPLE OF SURPRISES THROWN IN OF COURSE!
I CHOSE TO USE SOME ALAN WATTS QUOTES IN THE INTRO. I AM A GREAT FAN OF HIS AND REGULARLY LISTEN TO HIS TALKS RECORDED FROM YEARS AGO, HE IS ALL ABOUT POSITIVITY AND PERSPECTIVE AND HIS WORDS ARE MORE RELEVANT TODAY THAN THEY EVER WERE.
I HOPE YOU ENJOY THE MIX, IF YOU’D LIKE TO GIVE ME ANY FEEDBACK OR JUST KEEP UP TO DATE WITH ME THEN GIVE ME A SHOUT ON INSTAGRAM @JOECARTERMUSIC.
PEACE & LOVE.”
