Intro from the Doc:
On putting together this influences and rarities mix, first thing to conclude is this: I don't have that many super-rare records. So I have tried to focus on assembling an interesting selection of the records that have influenced and formed the framework of my sound. I hope you enjoy.
1. JAYDEE Ritma Suave Bossa Nova [BBE]
The producer demi-god on a Latin flex. He's such an important part of new music that he had to weigh in first.
2. TOMMY STEWART Bump and Hustle Music [Luv N'Haight]
What can I say? 'Out of sight!' Representative of an amazing era in music I have really gained so much from appreciating the 'freeness' of this music.
3. FLOATING POINTS Love Me Like This [R2]
The only track to feature from this year. Super slick thumps from the hot topic, Floating Points. You gotta have the vocal version in my opinion.
4. TOUCHE Just Like a Doorknob [Gipsy Music]
One of my absolute favourite disco tracks. Thudding, squelchy bassline with obligatory hands-in-the-air moment. Super cool.
5. KERRIER DISTRICT Let's Dance and Freak [Rephlex Catalog]
I spent 2003/2004 obsessing over the Warp/Rephlex back catalogue; this came at the end of that obsession. I think it represents the sounds I kept hearing at Warp nights, those times when I'd wonder: 'Where did this cool 'house' music exist?'
6. MAW MAW Expensive (a Tribute to Fella) [Cut]
I remember the night I first heard this get dropped. It was hot, packed and everyone was getting down I'd never heard music like it before! It was feel-good house music with good rhythms; at that point I thought all house music was static and boring. That was the night I stopped being into moody male-rage music.
7. KYOTO JAZZ MASSIVE The Brightness of These Days (Quantic Remix) [Compost]
I had to pick one from Quantic such mad inspiration. I really dug all his rougher edged, early stuff. It was like a window to what could be achieved with this music. He still reigns supreme but I miss some of his edgier bass music.
8. AMY WINEHOUSE In My Bed (Bugz in the Attic Remix) [Island]
Again, the first time I heard this tune I just couldn't believe how sick the combination was. These haunted soul vocals over pure rhythmic fire.
9. MJ COLE Sincere (Jazzanova's Sincererly Yours mix) [JCR]
This is probably a little bit classic for this mix but I just had to add it. This represents an era after I first picked up the Jazzanova 'Remixes' album a five-vinyl pack at the back of a dusty shop. Tune after tune. Possibly one of the most influential packs of music I've ever owned. Again, I just couldn't believe the rhythms and finesse that their productions possessed at the time. (p.s. sorry for the skip)
10. ZERO DB Samba Do Umbigo [Ninja Tune]
Pure vibe b-side to their seminal 'Bongos, Bleeps & Basslines' album.
11. JIMMY EDGAR Inner Citee Color Reprise [Warp]
Incredible, next-level electronic music. I'm not sure if anyone has really touched Jimmy since. Such perfection and sheen laced with unadulterated sleaze.
12. DIGITAL MYSTIKZ Ugly [Big Apple]
I remember reading about Digital Mystikz before I'd actually heard them. And they were as good as I had imagined!
13. MARTYN Natural Selection [3024]
This track, itself, doesn't stand out as a huge inspiration. However, I feel it represents a collective consciousness in new music. Those groups of artists from around the world that seem to congregate at Brainfeeder nights have been given a home to make great music by labels like this. Their attitude is right and the music that emerges from these groups as a whole is the biggest inspiration. It's also a sick tune.

Doc has been getting serious heat over the last six months; purveyor of dark, percussive UK-funky laced monsters. For us, it was the dubplate bounce of 'Deadly Rhythm' that really blew the midnight speaker.
He's about one thing only: club music. Check the SlamOnTheBreaks (slamonthebreaks.co.uk) music policy for a monosyllabic breakdown.
Everyone's asking him to bang out ghetto house mixes but Chaser wanted to really test or expose the man. So here's the swine flu-riddled Doc Daneeka influences mix. Rough and spontaneously ready.
Doc Daneeka EP is out on limited edition vinyl in December 2009 and 'Drums in the Deep' is released on Fabric in early 2010. Check him at YoYo on 29 October.

MAX COLE'S 'RED BULL TO AMSTERDAM' 10 |
|
|
1. LUKID ONIX
Deep and slow electronic grooves from the kid.
2. DIZZ1 & OM'MAS WE GO RIDIN'
Proper ballin' hip hop from Oz's master beatmaker and the Sa-Ra creative partner.
3. ROBIN HANNIBAL AND COCO SOLID TURTLE PIZZA CADILLACS
Space disco and old-school rap meet in Mos Eisley Cantina.
4. PURSUIT GROOVES & DENNIS COFFEY RENEW
Motown legend meets new-school spiritual drums as Dennis Coffey and Pursuit Grooves link in the studio.
5. JUBA DANCE WE WILL WAIT FOR YOU
Cosmic jazz at its loosest, this ensemble tune nods to Hermeto and Ra in equal measure.
6. MUHSINAH AND JAKE ONE YOU
Soulful hip hop balladry at its finest... An instant classic.
7. FLYING LOTUS (FT ANDREYA TRIANA) TEA LEAF DANCERS
Now a cult anthem, this tune helped spread the beats movement to a new audience and is a spine-tingling tune in its own right.
8. ANDREYA TRIANA, SOME FREAK AND RICHARD EIGNER THE LIGHT
Just released as a single, this dreamy percussive beat is perfect for sunrise.
9. BRUNO MORAIS, XXXCHANGE AND TONI MACCARONI PLANOS
A bit of Spank Rock, some samba sway and Fat Freddy's brass, and we get this ode to designers and architects everywhere.
10. MR HUDSON BALLAD OF JAY DYLAN
Today he's rollin' with Kanye West but take it back a few years and Mr Hudson was flippin' Jay Dee beats and Jake One, and just chillin' like Bob Dylan.
All of the above are fruits of the magical talent convention that is Red Bull Music Academy. Check www.redbullmusicacademy.com/academy-info for more information.
