future times...

I neeeeed to make some noise about Future Times and the insanely beautiful Beautiful Swimmers release they put out fairly recently. It's the boogie track of the last few months (along with the First Touch freebie mentioned below somewhere which is jammed with more new hi-end boogie booty), it's in some stores now and comes highly highly recommended. Future Times have a great website which keeps you up to date on their releases, you get some edit action, even some of their own original material (as wav's) and a bunch of excellent mixes. Them guys behind Beautiful Swimmers have offered up their 'Lifeguardians' mix (also available at their home address) to a.n.o.e. readers to give you a taster of what they're about, I'm re-hosting it because it's brilliant, a real Boogie flava Disco treat. I found myself thinking early 80's thoughts for the first time since the late 90's, you know about light sabers, baggy Liberto pants and the sweet shop at the corner of the street. Get it on the sidebar or here... just get it...

Beautiful Swimmers - Lifeguardians

(check the tracklisting in the comments)

PS I have loads of really good mixes coming up, including a new one from me - I just have to say that the downloads on the mixes are definitely down in numbers. I realize mixes are a dime a dozen on the net these days and there are quiet a few really good ones too, just be sure that I'm really picky about what goes up here and the Press Play series contains mixes from some highly specialized and knowledgeable dj's. Trust and download!

Wow, what a cool site. Offbeat mixes that I wouldn't find on my own. Been diggin' for a while. I know a guy who knows a guy(shameless name dropping plug) who threw a party in DC in 4/09 with Beautuful Swimmers. I knew nothing about these cats and didn't venture out. Kicking myself now. Thanks for the mix
