Episode 292: c2eMusic Copyright vs Liquid People

This is a fun mix from May this year.  Just before the start of the show I thought of playing only Copyright and Liquid People music since they were both big UK producing duos of the 00's and I had a decent amount of both of their catalogue.
Very much unplanned so no idea how it would turn out.  Would there be enough variation in energy to allow the mix to flow?
Luckily there was bucket loads.  I wasn't initially going to release the mix as I wanted to have a go at programming a tighter set - the perfect mix.  However I haven't got round to it and this version has grown on me so I'm gonna share it with you all.
For those that don't know Copyright consists of Londoner Gavin Mills (aka DJ Face) a big cheese in both the house and garage scenes in the 90's, a former hairdresser, big Japanese toy collector and now photographer.  
The other half is Sam Holt who is a huge trainer nut with a BIG collection, former MD at Team Saatchi and hails from my part of the world growing up just down the M55 in Preston.  The two were introduced to each other by Matt Jam Lamont's girlfriend in the late 90's.  They ran Copyright Records, initial distributed by Soulfuric and later Defected.  They were one of the main acts on the house scene in the late 00's-early 10's travelling the world headlining for Defected.
Liquid People consist of Conan Manchester and Dan Smith.  Conan aka Conan Liquid hails from Colchester in Essex, a master behind the decks as well as in the studio.  Had an early release on Strictly Rhythm in 98 under the name O.S.O.T.A. with a track called "Sunny's Theme".  
Dan Smith aka Danism a Cambridge boy is the soulful side of Liquid People complimenting Conan's percussive flair.
The pair came together and formed Liquid People in 1999 working out of H.O.T.H. studios in Conan's home town.  The blend of Conan's beat expertise and Dan's soulful production defines their signature groove.

I tried hard to mix it up so it's not just a run on any one artist.  We played a game in the chatroom all show where you had to guess whether it was Copyright or Liquid People.  It was actually harder than you'd first imagine.
As you will hear it's a real upbeat mix from the glory days of 00's house.  Some BIG tunes from both duos.
The majority is on vinyl due to the age, so I was frantically flicking through my records trying to find all of their music!
The mixing isn't perfect which held me back from releasing.  But if I don't release no one else can ever hear it, and it could become your favourite mix of summer, so here it is.  There is easily enough left over to make a volume 2.

It was an honour to make this mix and salute two absolute legend duos of the UK house scene.  Thank you gentlemen for your contribution, your music lives on in record collections all over the world.
