Mark E Live at the Mister


Back on December 10, we had Mark E as our guest at 12-turn-13. He cranked out a chugging set of house, and we caught it all on tape. We’re very happy to present it to you now on our new, improved SoundCloud page. Stream below, or download it and take it with you.

Justin On Table Tennis


Two Thursdays ago Justin played records on WNYU’s Table Tennis radio program with Jordan Rothlein. He played the blues, King Crimson and some dance music, and then Jordan asked him a few questions. Here’s the whole episode. Enjoy it.

‘Harkin & Raney’ To Date

The guys from Dog & Pony recently requested a mix from Harkin & Raney to form part of a recent edition of their ongoing podcast series. This seemed like a good opportunity to pull together all the production work, encompassing original tracks and remixes for Wurst Music Co, On The Prowl and of course Throne of Blood, to date by Steve Raney and myself. Here in isolation is that collection of tracks in mix format to download. It contains some unreleased and soon-to-be-released material.
