The Mixbuster on Fire 107.6

I've updated the tracklisting from my show from Saturday 27th August on Fire 107.6.


You can listen online to THE MIXBUSTER on Fire 107.6, every Saturday night, 8pm - 10pm.

'A Little Love Can't Turnaround'

I've been a busy boy this month! The latest 'Mixbuster' radio shows seem to be going very well, with some great feedback rolling in. Thanks to everyone involved. Lots of new material will be zinging its way from my studio for your enjoyment, either across the Fire 107.6 airwaves, or via the downloads section.

I'm quite excited by a remix of Lil Love 'Little Love' that I completed this weekend. I wanted to make a reference to the classic Chicago house sound that this current summer anthem aspires to, so I have used samples from Steve 'Silk' Hurley's 'Jack Your Body', Darryl Pandy's vocals from 'Love Can't Turn Around', and a wicked saxophone sample from a Ceybil Jeffries 12". Phat beats and a bassline that kicks you in the proverbials hopefully completes this mix. I will definitely play the remix in full on the radio soon and I will include the Ceybil Jeffries 12" that I nicked the sax from.

Great feedback!

Thanks for all your emails and positive feedback. It seems that the Jupiter Ace vs Whitney Houston mash-up has been very popular. I'll definitely give it another airing on a future show, so stay tuned.

Stuff to listen out for:

I've delved through my back catalogue and will use my mash-up of George Michael vs. Adamski/Seal, 'Amazing Killer', on next Saturday's show. This remix is a favourite one of Mixbuster fan Beanie, who requested I play this one quite a while ago. Sorry for the wait Beanie, but it will go out on Saturday night at about 8:30.

Coming soon...

Coming soon will be a montage of Bon Garcon, Shannon, Class Action, Fat Boy Slim and the Audio Bullys. Listen out at the beginning for the subtle use of Norman Cook's string sample and then my re-working of Shannon's 'Let The Music Play'. This is an all time classic, that is ripe for a remix.

You will also hear a snippet of my Mylo vs. U2 mash-up 'Vertigo Pressure'. Don't worry if you miss it, because this will crop up again soon.

I will wrap up the show with Cassius 'My Feelings For You', mixed with Inaya Day, Kelis, Timo Maas and the Cleptomaniacs. You'll also be able to hear my Craig David & Artful Dodger Megamix as well. Gosh, aren't you lot spoiled for choice!

On air from 8pm. Don't forget you can listen online: www.fire1076.com

Have a great weekend.

What's on this week...

I'm starting this week's show off with a mash-up I created last year. My Michael Jackson vs. CJ Bolland 'Billie Jean's My Sugar Daddy' mix starts the show off and will appear in the downloads section for a bit as well.

My pounding of Touche's 'The Paddle' isn't working. Shame! Been chucking this hard hitting track into every session, so I'll have to go cold turkey on it. If you here me play it you must immediately call the DJ police!

Biggest track from last weekend was the classic Soulsearcher 'Can't Get Enough'. It never fails to entertain and always raises the pace on the dance floor. Love it!

Stuff to look forward to:
U2 vs. Mylo (will feature soon)
Inaya Day vs. Michael Jackson vs Q Tip

Cheers, Si.

Non-stop 90's and now. The new Fire 107.6. Saturday nights, 8pm - 10pm.

23rd July 2005

The same show as broadcast on the 16th July, so another chance to hear the Shakira mash-up, the monsterous "Paddle' by Touche, and an hour of current dance tunes!

New show airs next week. Hear a sneaky preview on Monday 25th at midnight.

Cheers,

Si

16th July 2005

I started this show off with Justin Timberlake and Neneh Cherry, purely as a way of getting to the awesome 70's funk of Miami's "Chicken Yellow'. This is where Neneh Cherry's sax sample came from. I decided to play with the main hook of Miami's track, layering Shakira's vocals over the top and then adding the sweet, sweet sound of Alyson Williams 'Sleep Talk'. Whatever happened to her?

Other featured tracks in this show were Touche "the Paddle'. Love this track, but glad it wasn't a commercial success, as it works better off as an underground monster for the dancefloor addicts in the know!

New Show on Fire 107.6

My new show aired on Fire 107.6 on Saturday 9th July. The Mixbuster is broadcast from 8pm until 10pm on Saturday evenings and then repeated on Monday nights between 12am-2am. Each week I'll have put together 6 exclusive mixes of new material. Fire are now playlisting 'non-stop 90's and now!', so you can expect some true classics from the last decade, as well as current tracks in slightly different guises. Click here for the tracklisting of each show.

You can download some of the first show here. Some of the original full quality mixes will make their way into the download section, but for now I intend to put recordings of the shows up for grabs first.

The story so far...

Here we go again then! I'll soon be back on the UK's airwaves!

Having had an incredible amount of positive feedback from the Thursday night mixes on Chris Bailey's radio show on Fire 107.6, I have been offered a regular specialist show. Fire have decided to give me the Saturday night slot from 8p - 10pm to create a non-stop mix show to get people in the mood for going out, or staying in. I'm to replace a bloke called Roger Sanchez (who?), so as you can understand I'm quite excited.

The incredible feedback from Chris Bailey and his listeners (thank you to you all) have secured what I believe to be a fantastic opportunity for me to show my skills, but also to push the boundaries a little.

Fire is a vibrant and dynamic dance music based radio station, located in Bournemouth, on the South Coast of the UK. Bournemouth has always had a great dance music and club scene, and I am delighted to be a part of it once again.

Tune in on 107.6 if you can, alternatively you can listen online.

Topsoil

My alter-ego has recently enjoyed success with this dodgy crowd, and I am delighted to say that the wonderful Mr Cooper from Whole Hog has received an award for his latest production, Topsoil - a brief but extremely entertaining double-cross movie. It really is a brilliant film and I pray that this is a starting point for the 'hog' and not a mere pig -in-a-poke! I am honoured to have been asked to create the soundtrack and over the moon that Coops is reaping the rewards. Brock 85 rules!

Who is The Mixbuster?

DJ/Producer Simon Sinfield, has been mucking about with music since he was 10. Having taught himself to mix records on an old Citronic Tamar disco deck, he soon progressed to become a regular face at the wheels of steel in clubs along the South Coast of England.

Simon has also composed music and produced material for other artists. Most recently, Simon was commissioned to compose a soundtrack for an independent movie. This was the second time his music has been used for a film and the latest project, Topsoil, has just won an award at the Santa Cruz Film Festival in the USA.

Simon's passion for music and technical ability when mixing tunes has seen his creative DJ sets, and exclusive mixes develop a strong and loyal fan base.
