Well I have a blocked ear should probably take it easy, but enjoying this...

Is anyone familiar with the 6 Million Steps website?
It's a great archive of disco, boogie, funk, reggae etc with some excellently curated themed mixes. They really know their music history.
The Timelines mixes are brilliant - remember the BBC's The Rock n Roll Years, which interspersed pop and rock hits of the day with news footage? - it's like that in mix format. Thoroughly recommended:
Time Lines - 1 | Six Million Steps

If you use Chrome, you can get a Mixcloud downloader and download the new ones there's also a few of his club mixes up there.

Which Mixcloud downloader would you recommend? Have tried offliberty but the MP3 quality is awful.

the Chrome add-on I have is called merely 'Mixcloud Downloader'

 

[The_Reverend_M]

Cheers! I'll give that a google

Can someone tell me how to create a mixcloud mix...I take it I can't just compile tracks from Spotify and add to mixcloud...do I need some other software?

you need to record the mix as an mp3 and upload it.
if you're not going to do any actual mixing, you could alway just make a Spotify playlist and make it public

Right. But Spotify 'mixes' or playlists will only feature on Spotify won't they?

yeah, but you could record the playlist using something like Audacity (I've used this programmes to upload old mixtapes)

This has been knocking around for years but it's one of the best mixes I've ever head:
Spencer Kincy Mix: Live at Deep In The Flowers

Enjoying this, was searching the thread for something a bit different to my usual listening.

On Mixcloud now to avoid membership there

Want a classic deep house mix next, any recommendations of long standing favourite mixes?

I find a lot of deep house dull, but this is excellent and builds brilliantly

Ta, a quick shufty through suggests its just what I was looking for. Not being a house afficionado by any means I struggle to find what I like sometimes. That one I replied to above is good but occasionally too techno, no melody for me.

I have a mate who's a great deep house DJ, just this kind of thing, so good for when I'm in the mood, nice one.

Just downloaded a couple of these from Mixcloud/Youtube as I'm in the mood. By coincedence mates were chatting about the Coldcut and the Sasha/Digwed mixes recently:
