Three years since my last homage to the Castle and the Convenanza Festival created by the late Andrew Weatherall. Funnily enough, it was this time three years ago I also published my last mix. Time to put both of those things right...
Dedicated to the late, great man himself and all my fellow cadets making their way to Carcassonne over the next week.
Fail we may, sail we must. See you all soon :)

I came across this set by chance... and wow! It's excellent! I am more and more a fan of this style, I was served, thank you! 👌😛
Hey! Thanks for your kind comments - so glad you enjoyed the mix. Such amazing music in this genre.
Wallop! Bloody lovely that Scott. Glad to hear that you had a blast in the castle. Good to hear that the Glasgow Chug Mafia is still in rude health. Bless up ✊🏻⚔
Cheers Matt. The Mafia are going strong (particularly now that we've recovered from the weekend's shenanigans). Really need to get yourself over next year - would be great to see you! Hope all is well in your world and catch up soon :)

Thanks for your ears and comments maestro - always appreciated. Happy to report I've landed back safely and shifted the head into "work mode" today. The Castle was amazing as always! Glad you enjoyed the tunes mate - when you only do a mix every 3 years, it's not difficult to find some crackers - it's the sifting through 3 years' worth of purchases that's the problem! We're all good thanks and hope you are too. Although, we're now just living on batter. It's now cheaper to book a two-week holiday in Croatia than purchase a mars bar here! The crackers will do wonders for your figure! Thanks again for tuning in mate - speak soon
And talking of Depeche Mode. You know there is a press conference at 12 tomorrow. Potential new album and tour :) https://www.facebook.com/events/782065073048507
Top mix my friend and really nice to hear from you at the weekend been a while, Another cracking set of tunes , gutted won’t be able to attend this year. Have a great time, catch up when you get back, safe trip x
Thanks for the great comments Neil. Sorry you were unable to make this year and I was also gutted I didn't manage to see David on my travels. What a magical weekend it was - home and in recovery. Next year sir!
Back with a bang!!! Another excellent set here pal. Really enjoyed it. Proper gritty chuggy groovy stuff. Would love to hear sets like this on a big rig someday. I reckon it's epic.
Nice to see that Weatherall quote too. Saw a great little piece about it's origins and never realised it was from another Corkman. They don't make DJs like Weatherall anymore sadly. But the legend lives on. 🤟🤟🤟
Hi Fitz. Long-time no speak! Hope you are well fella?
Thanks for lending your ear and for the lovely comments - very much appreciated. The set is very much along the line of a peak-time A Love From Outer Space (ALFOS) set. While the Guv is no longer with us, Sean continues to run the nights and he can be regularly found playing throughout Europe. They are amazing nights and a great way to hear music like this on a big rig (with much better programming and technical prowess). I'd very much recommend it if you ever get the chance.
Yeah, really interesting story behind the "Fail we may, sail we must" quote. Really brings it to life. More details can be found here https://b.djmag.com/news/andrew-weatherall-s-fail-we-may-sail-we-must-origin-story-uncovered-irish-radio-dj
Thanks again for listening. Hopefully, it won't be as long until my next set!
Superb! Got the juices flowing for next weekend, loved it 👏👏👏
Thanks for listening mate and glad it went down well. Great to hear you'll be there - would be good to finally meet. Is Neil going too? Stubbie is coming along too.
Unfortunately not but maybe there’s still time to persuade him, nice one it’s going to be one to remember, see you in there 👌😎
Look forward to seeing you mate. Safe travels
Absolutely outstanding set.!! Best set ever.! Words cant do this mix justice....
Everyone, do yourself a favour and treat yourself to this mix....
Take a feckin bow, sir.!!
What a tribute to a great man... xx
Thanks mate. Really appreciate your generous comments. Chuffed you liked it - it's been a while! :)
