DJ Undercover - One Time Mix (mastermix series #9)
Westwood on the rewind, baby! By which I mean, here’s another choice snippet from the big dawg’s early days. Not an awful lot of info on this one, but as usual Rich Color fills in the gaps:
“Tim Westwood broadcast this on his LWR hip hop show in early 1985. It’s a live scratch mix taking [...]
DJ Hollywood & Brucie B - Tim Westwood Shout Mix (mastermix series #8)
It’s The BIG DAWG! Yeah yeah yeah, blowin’ up the spot tonight. It’s important to know that before Tim Westwood presented a TV show about tarting people’s cars up to look worse than they were to begin with, he actually had a hand in promoting quality hip hop back in the early pirate radio days.

Cattanach, Lee & McKeehan: Octomnipent Zeitgeist (mastermix series #5)
‘Octomnipent Zeitgeist’ - loosely meaning ‘THE spirit of 1985′, apparently - was the brainchild of mixing engineer Glenn Cattanach, along with Greg Lee and Jeff McKeehan, a pair of DJs from Lexington, Kentucky (that’s in the USA, fact fans). Everything was laid down using two turntables, a ¼-inch track 15 IPS reel to reel recorder, [...]
Strictly Kev: Kev’s Kraftwerk Kover Kollection mixes
If there is one set of files that can take the lion’s share of blame for crushing the bandwidth on the existing bosbos.net set up, it would be Strictly Kev’s Kraftwerk Kover Kollection mixes. Now we’re back in business, it’s time to resurrect them for an extremely hungry set of music lovers who missed [...]
Peanut Butter Wolf: Cover Me Badd mix
Michael Jackson. Queen. Prince. C+C Music Factory. Is nothing sacred these days? Cover versions, you either hate ‘em, or hate ‘em. Occasionally you might find a gem or two like the frankly weirder-than-Jacko-himself Japanese cover versions of Jackson 5 hits, but on the most part they are turgid beyond belief. What drives someone to do [...]
Solid Steel: Strictly Kev’s Dark Star mix
With DJ Food & DK’s latest Solid Steel mix CD Now Listen Again soon to be unleashed at large on the general public’s ears courtesy of Ninja Tune (date for your diary - 2nd April, folks), we’re going to take you back here at bosbos.net, way back.. to 1997. Ahh yes, a more innocent time [...]
Solid Steel: DK & Strictly Kev respect to James Brown mix
James Brown - what is there that’s left to say? His status of living legend to solely ‘legend’ was a sad but inevitable blow when, ever the showman, he passed away on Christmas day of 2006 at the age of 73. A number of tribute mixes appeared shortly after Brown’s passing, his impressive back catalogue [...]

The art of the Mastermix
Pressing pause to cut out ‘talking’ on the radio must seem like quite a daft idea to the kids of today. The military precision required to gain a clean dub from the radio in order to avoid going to the shops to spend all your pocket money in one go on a 7-inch record or [...]
