Polar Pair DJ Set on Solid Steel

Ninja Tune’s Solid Steel radio show is a legendary corner stone in electronic music culture. First aired in 1988 on London’s Kiss FM, and now syndicated all over the world, Solid Steel is still (ha!) pushing boundaries, and showcasing the latest sounds and trends.

Botanika releases were featured intensively on the show, with tracks by Cohen, Kalbata, Polar Pair, NDV, Markey Funk & Bunny on Acid. On this week’s show we took it up a notch, with a 30 minutes mix by Polar Pair, including some original tracks and other favourites.

Also, following Ninja Tune’s DJ Food visit in Tel Aviv last month, he featured many tracks by Markey Funk’s latest project – Mordy Laye and Group Modular. The word is that Markey is also preparing a special set for Solid Steel. Good times!

Here’s the playlist:

Universal Robot Band _ Space Disco _ Panther
Polar Pair _ Star _ Botanika
Elizabeth Rose _ Ready (Sinden Remix) _ Grizzly
Polar Pair _ Six in the Morning _ Unreleased
L-Vis 1990 _ Tonight (KiNK Like It’s 1990 Dub) _ Island
Zombie Zombie _ Rocket Number 9 (A Cappella) _ Versatile
How to Dress Well _ & It Wa U (Polar Pair Dress Up remix) _ Promo
Deft _ The Traveller _ Skullcandy
Django Django _ Skies Over Cairo (Bullion Version) _ Because
Tim Maia _ You Don’t Know What I Know _ Luaka Bop

There’s also a tiny bit of Pixies in there, if you can spot it.

 

8 years in 8 hours Pt. 1 (2004-2007)

 

As we mentioned last last week, we said goodbye to Kol Hacampus 106FM, ending an 8 years run in an 8 hours radio take over.

We prepared 4 hours of music covering some of the club and radio highlights for us – here’s the first part, concentrating on the years 2004-2007.

Enjoy!
