    • The View from the Booth Podcast Episode 9: The Mixnots
      Mar 8 2024

      The episode this podcast was created for.


      This 6-headed beast does it like nobody else. Can't Mix Won't Mix Shouldn't Mix Don't Mix (aka Cake Mix) grew organically from the underground parties and clubnights of Liverpool, and ended up on some of the biggest stages this country has to offer, leaving a trail of laughter everywhere they went.


      Matt Seamless

      JJ Da Funk

      Bobby Mowack

      Jazzbo

      Chris Carney

      & Kenny


      Their names sound like they were made up for an episode of Spaced, but it shows that this is a gang that don't take themselves too seriously. And yet, for a while they conquered the DJ world. Back in a room together (with the help of Zoom) for the first time in a long time, it doesn't take long for that trail of laughter to begin again. In fact, I warn you in advance that you may have to adjust your audio because there's a LOT of laughing.

      Normally I would offer a snapshot of some of the funnier stories, or subject matter.... but honestly, it's better if you're unprepared.


      Strap yourselves in.

    • The View from the Booth Podcast Episode 8: Chris Mac
      Nov 9 2023
      Chris Mac would probably make a face if I called his music career enigmatic, but I'm doing it anyway. As a musician from 28 Costumes to Silent Sleep and now Haarm, and as a DJ from Liquidation to Lark Lane to Bongo's Bingo, he's been all over the musical dial - from the impossibly cool to Cotton Eye Joe. He tells me exactly how he's managed to fit in all of these worlds, and the madness they contain, ahead of Liquidation's 30th Birthday show at The Florrie this Saturday, November 11th

    • The View from the Booth Podcast Episode 7: Joe McHugh
      Sep 28 2023

      In my 5 years at La'Go, there was always a great gang of bar staff. Not just the usual happy-go-lucky wreckheads, but plenty of music nerds that I could feed off of when the crowd wasn't giving me anything. They all loved to ask questions, but there was one who asked what I call DJ questions. I knew he'd caught the bug. 8 years later and Joe is 5 years into his DJ career, taking over from me at La'Go, and forging his own trail across the city.


      As we begin a new era as peers and partners every Friday night in Teddy's, I brought him in to talk about his journey, and how I knew he was bound for the booth before he did. We also touch on Moshpits, the importance of a good table, and when it's okay not to dance.
