There’s a dude living in the UK called James Starkie, he’s the Top Cat at Planet Acetate Records and well as we’ve just recently discovered they’ve got some a some pretty cool shit going on there.
Planet Acetate is a leading record label in a sleepy country village in Hampshire, and it’s probably the last place you would think a leading record label would breed.. However Planet Acetate have created a galaxy of their own, and they’re setting new standards in the House, Nu Disco, Indie and Deep scenes.
Starkie was kind enough to make us a pumping, deep, shut up and dance style mix-tape. We’re telling you now if this doesn’t make you dance you better check your pulse! ;-)

These two wonderful German creatures make and play the most beautiful music. Their sound is kinda perfect. Dreamy, relaxing and very driving, all at once. It’s techno baby! ;) We first discovered the duo through Miras soundcloud and her non stop killer mixes. So it’s time now, time to share the love (and the killing!). They have given us a more than good mix tape, that you can download the good old fashion way…We will leave it at this and let time and music speak for it self.

MINI INTERVIEW
What are you doing right now?
It Monday evening, so not too much :-) Well I’m doing this interview and I’m enjoying the fact that my EP on Sleazy Beats Black Ops is released today!
How did this whole music thing start for you?
I always loved music! From old tapes and records that my parents played to Kwassa Kwassa, Gabber, Steve Reich, Philip Glass, Ethiopian Funk, MFSB, Wild Beasts, Erik Satie, Vakula, Session Victim and so on! The music making thing started quite some years ago with a keyboard and a shitty computer… My studio looks a bit better now though.
What sound or noise do you love?
My alarm clock, it’s the best
What’s been on repeat lately?
The Glue – No Turning Back and also this EP by Lord Of The Isles.
Out of your body of work what is your favorite track and why?
That would be “Bohicon Funk”. It’s a different sounding track that switches from African influenced music to deeper house music… I lived in Bohicon (a small village in Benin, Western Africa) for a couple of years, so it’s nice to combine my passion (which is obviously music) with a place in the world that influenced me.
What are you currently working on?
I’m working on another EP for Sleazy Beats Black Ops and a couple of edits that should see daylight later this year. Besides that I have a little side project that should be released in September. And I’m always trying to make new stuff and sounds. Oh and I’m looking for someone to repair my Pearl Syncussion, as it died a couple of days ago… :(
Any dream (remixing) collaborations you’d like to take on?
Too many to name actually, but the Wild Beasts would be really cool!
What’s the one thing you can’t live without?
My Pearl Syncussion!
What is your vital daily ritual?
That’s a hard one, I just love my cigarettes.
Favorite website?
Very stupid but that would be nos.nl a Dutch news and sports site, thenumber20.com and soundcloud.com are cool too!
It’s grey AGAIN in Paris ughhhh… But tonight Shari is off to Barcelona aaaand she’s feeling quite summery! Thanks Mr Glenn for this good vibe mixtape, it’ll be playing in my headphones… ;-)
