Next up we have Tight Pants up on the mixtape series. His “Scream time action EP” from last year was one of our favourites. Crunchy house mixed up with melancholic marimbas, whats not to like. We used the A side as first track in our White Light ambient mix. As ever we caught up with Tight Pants to have a chat about whats next on the horizon and what he’s been up to:

“I come home to my house from a beach looks forward to coming again for your love. 

It’s a lot of fun at my house me my condesa and a room full of hitting things.

Part is a 3 telling a story of the night, start with no one in the club the first cheers of the bar staff for a good night, the main act comes with the force, and acid brings the sunrise to my bed.

Going to get some food with my friend Elena all this work makes me hungry.”

Next up on the mixtape we have Andrew Thompson from the wonderful Huntleys + Palmers record label. Funny enough Andrew was the first guest to play a Feelmybicep party London back in 2008 alongside Serge Santiago at the now close C.A.M.P. This now feels like a lifetime ago, with us celebrating our 7th Birthday and H+P their 8th this year its safe to say we are both going strong still. His and Auntie Flo’s mixes on BIS this year were probably some of my favourite, I recommend checking them out once you have gave this a spin ;) We caught up with Andrew to ask him what he is up to and whats up next for him and the label.

“The last month has seen the release of two very different projects I’ve been involved with over the past two years. Auntie Flo’s new album ‘Theory of Flo’ and Peter Scion – ‘Through My Ghost’. As both have been on the go for ages, it’s been really satisfying to see them finally take a life of their own.

The mix was recorded much later than planned – the afternoon before it was due in the basement of Nice N Sleazy, Glasgow.

I’ve been pretty productive with mixes this year and wanted to put something together that stands out from the others. The second track is coming out on the label in January, so I thought it was a good opportunity to play a bunch of fun party stuff – and who better to host than Bicep?”

Up next..

“December is a busy month on the party front – celebrating H+P’s 8th birthday on the 18th December in Glasgow with Damian Lazarus, Lena Willikens, Auntie Flo and myself at the Art School. Then down to London for a party at Corsica Studios on the 19th with the Cómeme crew, then finally bringing the year to a close at Optimo’s legendary Hogmanay party with my Highlife brothers, Auntie Flo and Esa – Join us!

More of the same for next year – records, parties, let’s see..”
