More from Danny Jarvis? - https://www.mixcloud.com/dannyjarvis/ For the first time since Progressive House Uk started I have decided to share one of my 'Lost In' mixes with you from my weekly show. Back in April this year I decided to create an online community and show that lifted our spirits each week on a Thursday. The live stream grew and grew and now there's a loyal community that join in each week to chat and converse with each other whilst I play, practically anything I like. So, why...

For this mix I wanted to test a very simple theory: If I simply played in one key (Gm) would all the tracks I had chosen over the past few months work? Even if I mixed them in Alphabetical order? I'll let you decide.

If there is one word I would use to describe the theme of this mix, it would be, 'Gratitude'. Having a platform such as Progressive House UK, has given me the opportunity to plug into an amazing community of kindred spirits; having an audience to share my musical interests; having friends with years to decades of artistic merit that I can learn from and look up to; having friends who want to share their music and mixes with me, seek my feedback, ask me for advice and take me to their gigs......

Tracks on the second mix waste no time either. Salina’s ‘Swirl’ is a beautiful synth-laden shower of melodic progressive house before heading into deeper territory from Heller & Farley courtesy of the Bedrock Mix treatment. Who can forget Sandra Collins and Voyager before a crescendo that is simply Bedrock legend: Heaven Scent. These CD’s are going on today. 21 years old and still sound as fresh as and relevant today.

A redefining moment for John Digweed and an absolute stalwart in Mix compilations. It was released in the UK on INCredible and in the US on Ultra Records in 1999. CD1 started in with a bassline groove and laid back house vocal that set the tone perfectly for the tripped out house that was to follow, whereas CD2 steered into that now classic Bedrock sound of tripped out progressive and trance with solid techno builders wedged in between. The stand out tracks are many from BPT’s Moody and...

This month's mix from Stevie goes right through the spectrum of electronic music. A gentle start weaves through 2 hours of upfront progressive with some hidden gems from the last 12 months subtly placed alongside some brand new tracks from big hitters like Stereo Underground, Quivver and a couple of show stoppers from the mighty Framewerk - another Irish name peaking the Progressive charts. Look out for deep house tracks alongside breaks and some good old-fashioned low-end Squelch theory. ...

This month's mix from the one and only CANDY - Strap in!

CD2 is packed with expansive dancefloor creations. In classic Guy J fashion, this is a musically dense and diverse trip that is as dynamic as it is organic, gradually progressing, turning up the pressure, keeping you hanging on until the very last drop has poured out of the speakers! From the deep, swinging, handclapping grooves of the opening sequence of Doves , Limbo and Easy Can Be , with their subtle, uplifting, intelligent beauty, this is a true journey by DJ, a master artist at work. As...

This week's throwback Thursday mix album has a special place in my heart and came at a tough emotional time in my life. I started running marathons and these two mixes were a must in my musical arsenal to attack the hilly miles near where I lived and trained. Now world-famous and respected by his peers, running his own Lost&Found label, Guy J was/ is one of Bedrock's biggest finds, having regularly appeared on the label since his debut in 2007. '1000 Words' is his second artist album,...

As the sound of thunder and deep atmospheric effects signal the start of CD2, Women Of Colour's ‘Elemental’ trickles through the speakers onto Deep C and Randall Jones’ percussion driven ‘The One’, with its smokey sax samples that ease the mood into a deep drop courtesy of Chris's studio partner Neil Kolo, whose solo project Nova marks a turning point in the cd, its deep and trippy percussion leading into a sublime break before driving straight into the hypnotic ‘Gasp’ by Dan Morris &...

CD1 starts with a nice sublime cut from Universal Agents that people may think pays homage to the Tigerhook Corp, but there is a reason for that as one of its members was actually involved in the production, working alongside the mighty G-Pal. The excellent Jay Tripwire continues this deep intro, before the massive smash hit that is BLH's Marscarter (John Debo and Steve Porter's remix) which oozes a raw yet perfect bass led house track from an era long since passed. Things head off in a...

We welcome PHUK friend and favourite Producer | Remixer & DJ Gav Easby to the International Guest Mix Series for a thrilling two hour instalment. Gav musical journey started back in the late 1980s, a classically trained Violinist for 6 years. Music was always played around Gav’s family home and a lot of early inspiration came from the likes of Queen, which his father used to play constantly. Saving up every penny, he bought his Technic 1210 Turntables a Vestax PMC 17A Mixer and a bunch...

CD 2 has as much energy as CD 1. Jimmy chose John Johnson's London as the set opener, making it sound as if it's really ready to fire masses of non-stop uplifting effects and swirling melodies. This carries and builds the set into a gorgeous melodic trance courtesy of Solid Sessions, one of this year's most talented artists. This great track finally drops into a million mile of killer breakdown that is sure to send shivers down your spine. This tune was mixed back to back with the mix from...

A week away from being 19 years old – boy did and do I love these CD’s. Released sometime after the first in the Compiled and Mixed by head honcho John Digweed, Jimmy Van M finally got chance to demonstrate his skills. Here it is the latest compilation from Bedrock that profiles one of the best DJs on the planet. Jimmy Van M has done a remarkably good job in compiling & mixing both cds. The tracks are professionally blended using his Jimmy's unique mixing skills. CD 1 starts off with...

Wait, stop, look out; it's QUiNTESSON. From the first beat, this is a fast and thrilling white knuckle ride. The very essence of what first pricked our ears at Progressive House UK is on full display here. Like a tightly coiled spring, the first 2 tracks come flying out. The energy created through the clever combination of both mixes of 'Inside' through Thimble and into the crescendo of Sensitive (IT)'s 'Flat Out' is pure electronic joy. Cherry (AU)'s Aiza then throws us into a mystical...

This month's mix from Stevie Reid

This is my last resident mix as I take a break to work on some other projects I'm getting off the ground. In doing so, I hand over to our new Resident & mix competition winner Bean Cuenca. There are some tougher sounds in this mix as I wanted to play a more peak time set - It's mins shy of 3 hours to keep you entertained with some modern-day remixed classics thrown in for good measure. Play this loud!

Candy’s mix this month is a delightful mix of light and dark techno. Opening the cinematic score is the first from Robots With No Soul ‘ENTER’ and briskly into Luigi Tozzi’s sparse yet expansive ‘Allergic’ echoing out and warming you up for the path ahead. By Track 3 and 4, I’m reminded of John Selway's ‘Lightwave’ Journeys By Dj’s CD, which washes in and out with warm synth-led atmospherics and calm quiet brooding groove before ramping up and up. Intelligent techno if you will. We have the...

From ‘The moment’ this mix starts you know you are in for something special. The PHUK Residents often comment between themselves that the bar is consistently being raised by one another and this mix notches it up yet again. When Xinobi finishes relaxing you into her vibe, ‘Spike’ sends you deeper into QUiNTESSON’s dark velvety trance. If you aren’t already hypnotised, then Issac’s ‘Clavel’ takes you down a narrow corridor of drums and synth lead intoxication that you can’t come back from....
