Exactly. Very funky and fresh mix, listened to it a couple of times now and I'm still amused by it.
Even a friend of mine, who isnt into EDM as much as I am, asked me while this was playing in the background; 'What cd is this? Nice music man ...'

Agent 86' other (radio-)mixes are worth trying too.

Quoting Lucien Foort House was ooit house. Een gevoel, een scene, een stroming die recalcitrant was. Waar je 's middags in Outland Records, Basic Beat, Hotsound of Kareltje netjes op je beurt wachtte om platen te scoren die je in de nacht ging horen. Waar als Roderick & Anne Fleur gingen hockeyen, Jack stoer verklaarde: “Laat er house zijn en housemuziek werd geboren”. Waar ongelovigen toch predikten “God made me funky, and I’m glad He blessed me this way”.

don't turn it off, i kinda like it...

good album. i've been listening to it a lot since i found out about it a few weeks ago.

People outside of Melbourne know who Agent 86 is?

Seen this guy play 25+ times and he is without doubt one of the best DJs I know. His roots are in hip-hop; he still plays on vinyl and does scratches and cuts, but he also has a strong techno/house grounding.

Whether it's a peak time, 135 BPM techno set or a 120 BPM funk set, I can only think of perhaps three other jocks with such a diverse range of quality music and the ability to read the mood and atmosphere of a club so adroitly. He's an incredibly friendly guy too, and loves it when you ask about what he's playing.

I don't know where you can get it digitally, because I only have a vinyl copy, but this track of his is well worth picking up:

The A Side is so fucking good.

Thanks for the heads up

And yeah, I never heard about this guy until this Balance comp came to my attention. I will definitely be checking out more of his stuff.

Beat me to it! Yeah Agent 86 is pretty damn wicked His warm up 30 minute mix for Kraftwerk was fantastic. Shame they didn't play.

I listened to this because I had to write a review about it. Though, it was quite a pleasant surprise Funky all over the place.
