Jura Soundsystem

I’m heading over to Melbourne on 2nd Sat to play at the Toff in Town as part of the Now or Never Melbourne festival. Tickets here.

I’m back at the awesome Club 77 in Sydney this Thursday night for Phil Smart’s Tempo Comodo night, a celebration of the slower side of club music. I spoke to the Club 77 blog with my current top 5 slo-mo chuggers.

I did an extended edit of Shiva’s ‘Never Gonna Give You Up’ featuring the sultry vocals of Jo Ann Harris, a one time backing singer for Bob Dylan in the 1980’s. I was sat in the studio one day and decided to play the original through my the Soundtoys Echoboy plugin and after that the edit came together pretty quickly, some vocals are truly made for delay. It’s out now in all good record stores, with the last of the 12″s on Bandcamp.

As part of some promo for the ‘Transmission Three’ compilation i did an in depth interview with my favourite blog Test Pressing. Bluey made the cut!

I’m in Sydney tonight 15th April with the Planet Trip boss Mike Who at Club 77.

I’ve started a new monthly playlist with 75 tracks that are on repeat in the office and when i’m on the move, it will be refreshed on the first Friday of every month. Spark up an incense and dive in here.

My ‘Lovers Version’ of Melody Beecher is out now. I extended the Dub, took snippets of vocal from the original and added a heavy dose of reverb and delay to create a more tripped out excursion.

I head to Perth on 11th March for a 3 hour set for Move, tickets are here.

I don’t do many mixes, one a year usually, which helps to keep them fresh when i do end up doing them. One of my go-to mix series is from Planet Trip, so to add one to their catalogue really got the creative juices flowing. You can check the mix here.

There’s an Isle of Jura feature and interview with me now on Bandcamp that delves into the history of the label and highlights some key releases. ❤️ to Bandcamp for the support!
