Episode 274: c2eMusic 4 SoulfulHouseDJs July 2024 1:28:46

5h ago1:28:46

1:28:46

This is a recording from a show I did recently for SoulfulHouseDJs in the UK. My friend Will Nice has a slot on Sundays and asked me to cover for a couple of weeks. Two became three and this mix is from the third show. The show was at 9pm Sunday night in Sydney where I am, but only 12pm Sunday lunchtime in the UK. As a result the mix stays very muc…

Back after six weeks off the airwaves. Internet problems, still ongoing but workable this week. It's actually a pretty chilled mix this month. The mix opens with lush deep vibes courtesy of Jimpster. We build gently with jazzy vibes along the way, the odd sing along here and there. The main part of the mix again has a UK feel, with those bumpy skip…

1:40:18

This months show is a mix of new and nearly new. It was recorded during last weeks show on Pressure Radio and was not a new release destined for a podcast rollout. However I tried to play all of the tracks from the last couple of months that I bought but have yet to play. The result is a decent mix different enough to stand on it's own. The mix ope…

2:08:46

This mix should have really been March 24 as it was recorded during the last show of the month. However I didn't get round to mastering it until April and it makes no sense to release a mix in April and call it March. I found it difficult to connect with Soulful House and House releases last month. As a result this mix is mainly deep mixed with UKG…

1:59:44

Here we go with the first mix of 2024. Half of the tunes have been sitting in my Traxsource basket since January, some since December! I'll be honest I wasn't feeling the urge to put a new mix out. The music wasn't inspiring enough. The radio shows were more nostalgic and I got back into rediscovering my older music and mixes. I did actually do thi…

Episode 269: c2eMusic November 2023 2:18:17

2:18:17

Longer than normal mix this month. Music shopping was slow after searching soulful house, garage and deep house and I was starting to worry. Then along came house and everything changed. I went from having not enough music for a show to way too much. It took longer to download and I ended up being 10 minutes late for the start of the radio show. I …

This is the recording from the RFOX VALT VR club event I did on the 27th October. It's essentially a virtual nightclub in the middle of a virtual world created by Sydney based RFOX. Anyone can come along, especially for anyone with an Oculus headset. I'm looking forward to doing future events and I'll keep you posted on my FB & Insta accounts (www.…

2:00:01

This mix was heading in the "for my ears only" box as I didn't get a warm fuzzy at the end of the show. I wasn't happy with the flow and there were a couple of key clashes that made my bum whistle that little bit higher. However my partner fell in love with it over the following weekend. She pleaded with me to release it, "it needs to be heard" she…

Episode 266: c2eMusic Boogie at Ivy Pool Club 30/09/23 1:18:07

1:18:07

This is a recording of a set I recently played at a really cool rooftop club in Sydney. It was the warm up set, which is perfect because you have the freedom to choose how to go from zero to everyone warming up on the dancefloor. The set is a mix of new tracks that you'll hear in the upcoming c2eMusic podcast for October and some of my favourite tu…

Episode 265: c2eMusic Munted Marsden 2:00:16

11M ago2:00:16

2:00:16

As you can imagine I never set out to create a "munted" mix, but it provides a way for me to release mixes that I feel don't meet my usual standards. There could be a couple of ropey transitions or as is the case with this mix, too many naked beats, usually the result of the transition not being tight enough. The reason this mix is munted is becaus…

The August mix in recent years (excluding Covid) has become the Suncebeat mix as it's the first mix after the festival. This year marked the last time Suncebeat will be held in Croatia, or the Tisno Gardens at least. It was the fourteenth event which is incredible and shows the quality of the week long soulful house spectacular. It was the quietest…

Episode 263: c2eMusic Best of 2023 so far... 2:00:52

1y ago2:00:52

2:00:52

Midway through 2023 so no better reason to do a best of (so far). This podcast pulls from the last six mixes Jan-Jun cherry picking the some of my favourites so far this year. It's been a pretty good year for music so far, it wasn't easy choosing which tracks to play, although it was all done on the fly so it was dependent on the vibe and feel of t…

Wow, where do we start with this little badger. It almost never happened due to some technical issues during the show. I had played around with the settings in Butt that week before and hadn't put them back. So for the first 50 minutes of the show everyone was listening to the mic on my Mac! Yes, they heard the music albeit grainy and muffled, but …

May is a birthday double header in the Haynes house. This year it's a special one as my eldest turns 16 allowing him to drive!! I'm so proud of the young man he's becoming. He really is a chip off the old block, so much so that he has just gotten into vinyl and is now showing interest in DJing and production. He even joined me in the music closet f…

2:02:40

Well I will open by saying this mix feels very different to most c2eMusic sessions. Yes there is a nice spread of sub genres and yes there is a nice flow through them all. However there is more straight up house in the second half. I'm really keen to hear what you think of it. I must admit it's growing on me, but then I did choose the tracks and mi…

Chucky (Mr Congas) a fine upstanding Englishman now calling Sydney home. Steve (DJDippedInDeep), fellow Pressure Radio DJ whose supported since my early days on Pressure.

Getting back into the groove and loving it. Reconnected my Podcast with iTunes this week. Numbers have soared since, made me realise how important a platform like iTunes can be. Now I am discoverable again to new people and even appear on the first page of search results for soulful, deep or even house music! That's only possible with the support o…

2:08:35

I was prompted to do a vinyl show by the Klubhouse guys here in Sydney who had their first Vinyl night this last weekend. So in classic c2eMusic (and Richie Haynes in general) style grabbed a handful of tunes just before the show and jumped right in. Vinyl mixing requires a lot more attention and skill than digital and whilst it's like riding a bik…

This is a fun impromptu set recorded live on Pressure Radio on a Sydney Sunday afternoon in January. I was joined by my mate Chucky (Howard Charles) a fellow Brit living in Sydney, who had come over to mine to have a jam with his congas. While we were jamming I checked to see if anyone was playing live on Pressure and saw it was just auto DJ, so we…

Happy New Year everyone. This is the first mix of 2023, a year in which I hope to be a lot more active than recent times. Signs are positive, I actually enjoyed the search process for new music for the first time in a fair while. There are more and more releases but the amount of good stuff is about the same. That means an ever decreasing hit rate …

This is a special mix based around a set I played this month for Klubhouse at Tatler here in Sydney. The vibe on the night was great, so much energy in the room. I played after Klubhouse founder Dante Rivera who gave e the perfect base to start from. Lauren Neko followed me singing live over the tracks she was mixing! Local legend Illya Cooper was …

Hope everyone is well out there and you are finding the time to do the things that make you feel happy and fulfilled. I'm happy to say that I recently did so by flying over to Europe to attend this year's Suncebeat '22 festival in the beautiful Tisno, Croatia, followed by a trip back to the UK to visit family and friends. This month's mix is a cele…

1:57:23

Continuing the nostalgic theme in 2022, my tenth anniversary on Pressure Radio. This weeks show was dedicated to 2011. No particular reason, although I was intrigued to hear what c2eMusic sounded like just before I went onto Pressure Radio. I always feel conscious of my sound on Pressure with the soulful house focus on the station. I personally fee…

Episode 251: c2eMusic 2010 Again 2:06:06

2:06:06

This mix was recorded on my c2eMusic radio show on Pressure Radio on 23rd June. As the name suggests you may find the odd track or 23 that first appeared in a c2eMusic mix in 2010. Five specific mixes in fact - February 2010, May 2010, June 2010, July 2010 and August 2010 almost in that order!! Now let me clarify that again in case any nerds point …

Finally getting round to releasing recorded radio sessions from the past couple of months. This is from the end of April but we'll call it May because it sounds cooler. It's a mix of new tracks on the deeper side of the tracks. Again it was another on the fly job with tracks purchased an hour before the show and listened to for the first time with …

This mix is the first in a series celebrating my ten years on Pressure Radio. I must admit I never imagined still being here ten years on, but as the old saying goes - "time flies.......". I still remember my audition with John Matteo. It was a Sunday afternoon here in Sydney which meant Saturday night in NY where JM was playing live on Pressure. H…

It's taken over seven years but Vol 3 of the Dirty Phunk series is now out. I can't say it was planned as I don't do that with music very often. This was recorded on the fly for the live Pressure Radio show on 23rd December. My original thought was a new Dave Lee mix and that's how thing started, however track three changed all that! From then on i…

2:00:27

Welcome to another crate digging session, recorded on the c2eMusic Radio Show on Pressure Radio on 9th December. It's a bit of a tale of two halves. The first being pretty chilled and soulful giving way to a bit more oomph in the second hour. The first hour has a very British feel from the Soulful House scene featuring producers like Rhemi, Sean Mc…

Great being able to get an early release out for the December podcast. It's just down to when the radio show falls and it doesn't make sense to wait till the next show which takes us into mid December so here we are. This mix is quite different to your traditional c2eMusic mix. It doesn't have the usual flow, the changes in energy levels and styles…

I'm starting to establish a pattern with my Pressure Radio shows now There are typically two a month, one featuring new releases and the latest sounds. The other is a crate digging session on the deep/soulful side. This mix is an example of the latter. It's been a while since I did a mix just filled with big tune after big tune so I was excited to …

Recorded right at the end of October this mix was almost Oct Vol2. However just hours away from todays show and with no new music it makes more sense for to be the November mix. Anyone following my Global Lounge Room Music on Mixcloud will recognise this mix. Essentially the GLRM mix was done on the fly and as a result it's not as tight as I would …

1:58:24

This months mix should be called "Spotify 20/21" as it's made up of a bunch of tracks I've listened to over and over on the platform during the various lockdowns. As a result the mix has a slightly different sound as I listened to a wider range of music while stuck at home. Heads Up - I have another project that I release on Mixcloud called "Global…

With the lockdown everyone is now a streaming/internet DJ. Will be interesting to see what comes out of this lockdown period musically.

I'm not sure why but somehow I lande…

This months mix is a guest mix on someone else's show! I hosted the Underground Jack show last Saturday on D3EP Radio Network. I wasn't able to play on Pressure the previous week, so this kinda made up for it. With 30 minutes to go before the show I decided to go with "Re-Tide" as a theme. I grabbed all of their tracks and went for it. The result i…

These are the most fun mixes to makes and hopefully you enjoy them too. No plan, just casting my net across the whole digital collection and seeing where we go.

Firstly Happy New Year everyone. Hope this is a great year for you all and you managed to spend some quality time away from work with loved ones over the holidays. 2019 was a pretty barren year for mixes for me so I am very happy to be able to put out a mix to kick off the new decade and without it being a last minute rush.

It's been a long time since I released a mix of new music so I was pleased with the outcome of last Thursdays show. As always, no idea what I would play or in what order. That's often what stops me releasing a mix as it doesn't always flow right, or some of the mixes don't work. Thankfully this time things worked out well. It's a mix with three dis…

Been away far too long. Lot's of travel kept me away from the decks for a number of months now which isn't ideal, but I am back now. This release is from the live Pressure Radio show on the 17th October. It was my first show in a few week too and I fancied a challenge so I went all in on a vinyl show - on the fly of course :) It starts off squarely…

Last Pressure show before I head off to Europe for Suncebeat in Croatia. There was no new music this week, I just didn't have time to find enough. The mix itself is very deep for me. I think I consciously wanted to have it this deep without knowing which tracks would be right. The second half of the mix ended up being a homage to Germany's Lovebird…
