Galaxy Rock for Disconauts - Recess mixtape from 2006

I hopped into Menami's car the other day and she was rocking an old mixtape of mine. Well not super old, but it's at least 4 years by this point. I had forgotten all about it! Although I played out a lot of different genres at the time (still true today!), I particularly adored disco with enough rock elements that made it accessible to those kids that "don't like electronic music".

I had so much fun listening to it again that I thought I'd bring it back for your downloading pleasure. The link below will also provide a full track listing. All vinyl baby!

SATURDAYS - Mixed Live by RECESS

Here's a mixtape I recorded last night. A couple of turntables and 30 tracks
of summer fun. Thought I should put something together for rocking out at
the Capitol Hill Block Party this weekend. Summer's here and in Seattle that
means everyone's out of their caves and ready to party. I'm known for
playing a variety of different styles of dance music depending upon the
party and certainly have no shame (had to say it!!) in putting together a
more populist mix. Starts off with a hip house vibe and includes a bunch of
party jams.
