His 26-track mix : :' features new material from the man himself, as well as ': ,: exclusives by Hessle Audio and Timedance affiliate, Ploy, rising :, : newcomer Peach, and Pavilion. : :' ': ,: What's more it features a number of gems that will be available :, : digitally for the first time ever from the likes of Bourbonese : :' Qualk, The Bygraves, Degrees Of Freedom, Ellen Fullman, Crinan, ': ,: Primitive and Haroumi Hosono`s 'Rose & Beast'. :, : : :' In a short space of time, Leon Vynehall has established himself ': ,: as a DJ and producer with real craft. He brings a much wider :, : than usual array of skills and influences to electronic music. : :' His comprehensive approach was confirmed by his spellbinding ': ,: debut album Nothing Is Still on Ninja Tune in June 2018 which :, : received widespread critical acclaim with Resident Advisor : :' saying "On Nothing Is Still [Leon Vynehall] takes a huge step ': ,: forwards" and was just awarded Mojo's 'Electronic Album of the :, : Year' as well as featuring in the Top 15 Albums of the Year from : :' Rough Trade. Told through multiple mediums, Nothing is Still ': ,: was made up of the story of his grandparents`; emigration from :, : the UK to New York throughout the 1960s, it told a distinctive : :' story that unfolded into a resonant narrative; a richly layered ': ,: affair filled with curveballs and a wealth of adventurous ideas :, : that Vynehall pulled off with confidence and style. The album : :' has since evolved into a live entity of its own with ': ,: rapturously received full band and orchestra shows across the :, : world. : :' ': ,: It's the same open minded approach with his DJs sets, and :, : particularly this DJ-Kicks mix, which goes from 79-169bpm in : :' fluid fashion - always distinctly diverse both in genre and ': ,: tempo, the mix works in a range of settings, as was the artist's :, : aim. "I wanted to approach this more like a compilation than a : :' stand-alone 'mix,'" Vynehall says. "To me, compiling a DJ-Kicks ': ,: is a significant statement of intent and representation, so with :, : that in mind, I thought more about the selection than the mix. : :' Being given the responsibility to select work from artists I ': ,: admire, some of which have only ever been released on their :, : first vinyl presses many years ago, was a task I didn't take : :' lightly." ': ,: :, : Even with curation taking pride of place here, the mixing is : :' still seamless with some fearless transitions. Tracks are given ': ,: the respect and time they need to resonate, adding up to :, : something with a coherent beginning, middle, and end. : :' ': ,: For the mix, Vynehall begins with his own piece of shimmering :, : abstract : :' ambience, and builds through modern dancehall, chugging EBM, to ': ,: cult :, : underground Mancunian street soul. From there the mix takes a : :' more punk edge and tougher approach, before switching up with ': ,: some irresistible two step swagger and dreamy melodic breakbeats :, : that will loosen the limbs, finally ramping up through new and : :' old school jungle, and rhythmically inventive drum acrobatics. ': ,: The final word comes in the form of a beautifully :, : : :' pensive piano piece from Robert Haigh that makes a real mark. ': ,: Once again here, Vynehall goes above and beyond to deliver :, : something that doesn't seem possible on paper, yet executes it : :' with such skill as to make it utterly essential.
