Over the years I’ve been DJing the genre that I’ve probably played the most is House, even though I’ve made my name as D-Funk on the international level for funk & breaks. For a while I was making some tunes that didn’t really fit the D-Funk mood & wasn’t sure what to do with them or if they’d even see the light of day. I played them to a good friend Tim, over at Bloxbox Records, the label he co-run with the legend that is Brandon Block & they were excited about the tracks & asked me if I’d release them on their label. So the ‘Twist It EP’ was born! This is the first music I’ve ever ofically released as Doug Masters, which is my cunning entitled alias I’m using for my more housey material. I’m already working on the follow up EP…

The ‘Twist IT EP’ is available exclusively at Beatport – https://pro.beatport.com/release/twist-it-ep/1543287

I also teamed up with the amazing Free Breaks Blog with a tune as part of their ‘International Bass EP’ which sees 3 artists from all corners of the globe supply you with a free 3 track EP!

I put together a cheeky little remix of the old skool rave classic ‘Don’t Go’ by Awesome 3 & had been playing it in my DJ sets to great reaction for a while, so when the guys at Free Breaks Blog mentioned the International Bass EP I was super keen to be a part of it & had just the tune for them.

The whole EP that features tunes from Blanilla & Joe C, as well as myself, is on the Free Breaks Blog site here – http://freebreaksblog.com/the-international-bass-ep/

Recently I was part of the That’s Not An Edit Vol 2 compilation. Which is a great series of releases hailing from Australian producers focusing on the funkier end of things. My tune ‘What Can You Bring’ is a solid nu disco gem that’s both funky & deep all at the same time. It’s been clocking up the plays over on the That’s Not An Edit Soundcloud & is a FREE DOWNLOAD, so go grab a copy now… ENJOY!

Another one in my ‘Tracks from the smelly cellar’ series. This is a tried & tested edit/re-make I made. ENJOY!

I teamed up with the awesome Armory Podcast that’s put together by the Space Cowboys crew out of San Francisco for this hour mix of breaks, mid tempo, bass, 2 step, garage & the like. The sounds on here is really where my head is at right now & I think this garage influenced side of break beat is really interesting & I for one am loving it! The track listing for the mix is in the info section on the Soundcloud player & on the mix you’ll find tunes from Beatslappaz, Father Funk, Janette Slack & Adsorb, Se7en Deadly Breaks, Luke Haze, Rektchords & Ben Remember, Bombo Rosa, Mafia Kiss, My Nu Lung, Dngrfld, Bug In The Attic & of course loads on new & unreleased tunes by me! Hope ya enjoy…

Here’s a little mix that I put together under my very clever alias Doug Masters. Over an hour of quality low slung grooves…

A few years ago I used to play loads of house but have been focusing on the more funk/breaks stuff recently. As I’ve got back in the studio, things progressed & I made a house EP. I signed it to UK based label Bloxbox Records for release soon. With this in mind & the fact I’ve started doing a few gigs back as Doug Masters, I thought I’d put together a mix of great tunes on the deeper & more 4/4 side of things. Think deep, spaced out disco grooves all the way through to my take on house. It’s a free download from the Soundcloud player & the full track listing can be found in the SC info section. It’s even got a few of my tunes in there near the end, including ‘Twist It’ which is the lead tune from my Bloxbox EP. Hope ya enjoy…

This cheeky booty has been in my more upbeat sets for a while & has been one of the highlights when I’ve played it out. The original is a classic, dare I say it, trance tune from back in the day but I’ve given it the once over & turned it into a slamming breaks number that’s heavy on the bass bins. Now it’s yours for free! Grab the download direct from the Souncloud player & enjoy!
