Bringing in mix number 162 of our series is Chach from Hidden Rooms! In his own words: "This is a power hour of Techstep-leaning records that I found in dusty bargain bins, charity shops and flee markets over the past few years. A couple of mentions - firstly DJ Vetoe (or Vetoe), I've listened to so many of his shows and mixes but he seems to have taken many of them down sadly. You can thankfully...

Bringing in mix number 161 to our series we have Tbilisi based https://soundcloud.com/umburter! He brings with it a wonderful selection of tracks from his library, and in his own words, shows his emotions through his music. Enjoy :)

Bringing in mix number 159 in our series we have The Occasional Feel-Good host Leisureware! In his own words: "This is the soundtrack to our reunion at my fantasy beachside cocktail club. Ravishing jams from Pantene, The Gist, Eros, Free Youth, AR Kane and many more. Shades at sunset, mystery tapas and dry ice inhalation. Wear some jazzy clobber and meet me on the dance floor…" Tracklist – One Dov...

I didn't hesitate to play this energetic set before my party held the next day. It inc...

Hi everyone, as is the case with us when we are celebrating our time as Mantissa we have created a Side B to our anniversary mix. With Side A being much more club focussed, we like side B to display music that is predominantly not for the club - in this case our side B is a hip-hop mix, perfect for Sunday listening. Cheers! James & Tom

Bringing in mix number 155 for us we have the incredibly talented https://soundcloud.com/rhythm_sister member https://soundcloud.com/whoishemlin! Having caught her play a number of times in London we know exactly what she can bring to the table, and this mix shows off her effervescent style brilliantly; weaving through a plethora of lovely unique tracks to really bring something special.

"So with everything that's been going on with us all having to be separate, there's been a lot of talk about what's going to happen to the scene after lockdown measures are lifted and people start going out again. Some people have been suggesting that the new normal will involve a lot less travelling and more focus on smaller, local scenes and communities, so for this mix I chose to focus on my lo...

https://soundcloud.com/karimakarima on her contribution to our mix series - "Cop-out-reply, but I never have any ideas or plans before I embark on a mix. My only rule of thumb is to play a lot of relatively new music (and give the golden oldies a pat on the back)." And check out our interview with Karima F here: https://mantissamix.com/an-interview-karima-f/ @karimakarima https://soundcloud.com/os...

"I rarely get asked to do a mix so specific, but given the subject matter of this one I immediately got working on it and dug for some of the headiest afterhours vibes I could think of. I probably could have made this thing seven hours long..." @cloutier

Our 148th mix comes from Ben Boe, the founder of one of our favourite labels, For Those That Knoe. Ben set up For Those That Knoe in 2013 with an intention to turn the reissue market on its head. Rather than plainly reissuing individual expensive records on Discogs, Ben has re-positioned several artists previously unknown to most and given them a platform to shine; most notably Casey Tucker and De...

Our latest mix comes from Quiver and features plenty of acid, chug and rollers. It's a big'un, make sure to check it out! @therealquiver

"Given that the interview had quite a few questions reflecting on different moments in my musical trajectory, I wanted to share something that matched with that. This is a mix I made some time ago, but never did anything with. It is a very understated and simple mix that is really focused on the tracks themselves. Most of the music I selected has been with me for a long time and has meaning for me...
