All right my valued blog readers, here’s another decent mix for you to bump over the weekend

Falko Brocksieper steps up and gets it done for Resident Advisor’s 101st podcast. …incidentally, the RA team really has a good thing going with these podcasts…consistently clean recordings, quality artists, good stuff all the way around

I actually hadn’t heard of Falko before checking out this podcast on a whim. It’s kinda funny because the 100th RA podcast was by none other than Richie Hawtin…so it seems they do a good job of tapping into the well-knowns and drilling into the underground.

Anyway, I think this mix does a good job of maintaining a cool, techy vibe from start to finish…it fits in the same bucket as the Patrice Baumel mix I posted a while back…good stuff, that keeps the head noddin’

To check this one out, just click the play icon as usual.

Also, if you’re interested in reading about Falko, here’s a little blurb I found on the RA website…

"Falko Brocksieper might have moved away from Cologne in 2004, but you can still hear the lush techno sound of his home city in his productions. A producer since 1999, Brocksieper has released on a variety of labels including Sub Static, Resopal, Treibstoff and Dumb Unit and Tuning Spork. This month, though, sees the release of his first full-length in five years on Sub Static, Heavy Day, which promises to showcase both where Brocksieper’s been and where he’s going. Mixed in with his usual analog-based minimal funk is a number of vocal tracks, featuring the talents of Richard Davis, Big Bully and M.I.A.

As a DJ, his style has been described as "intelligent and optimistic", and he places special emphasis on mixing up older tracks with more recent records. In keeping with the theme, his RA podcast is sprinkled with new productions by the likes of Cassy, Johnny D and Agnès, and closes out with a classic track by Baby Ford. You can also hear a few of the tracks from Heavy Day on the podcast (although none of the vocal cuts). Enjoy."
