Dig Deep on Cowbell Radio #32 with Sam Pemberton (Dead Horse Gang)
To celebrate 3 years of Dig Deep on Cowbell Radio we have a 2 mixes back to back this Saturday night, plus a sprinkling of new tunes throughout the show.
Kicking off at 7pm, first up we will be taking you back to last year's Beat-Herder Festival with the debut airing of the recording of Paul Thornton and Chris Holt live in Trash Manor.
Then at 9pm we hand over to Sam Pemberton (Dead Horse Gang) for an exclusive hour long set that showcases Sam's exceptional talents on the decks. A true natural, Sam will take you on a journey of choice selections that will run through till 10pm. Sam's mix gets the Dig Deep vibe spot on and features Afro flavours, Latin/tropical grooves, percussive workouts and some newer disco/house edit stuff to boot.
I first heard Sam DJing at Solfest last year and really liked what he played. Then I got the chance to play alongside him at The Open Mind Bar in Carlisle (a Dead Horse Gang event) and was blown away by both his taste in music and his effortless DJ skills - he mixed for ages like a techno DJ whilst cutting up tracks like a pro hip hop turntablist. I asked Sam to do a mix for the show there and then...

Dig Deep on Cowbell Radio #31 with Al 'Hot Mix' Holmes (Chicago)
Al has been playing records in the city since 1982. Graduating from Medal High (the school that produced many people that had a big impact on the Chicago house scene including Robert Owens, E-Smoove & Braxton Holmes) Al's influences include Farley 'Jack Master' Funk, Steve 'Silk' Hurley and Frankie Knuckles.
With 30+ years in the game, Al has been remixing and producing music for more than a decade. During that time Al has released a string of Chicago house, gospel and gospel house EPs and singles on the Power Mix Group 1 record label.
No stranger to the airwaves, Chicagoan's will have heard Al on the 2nd largest Gospel station in the US, inspiration1390.com. Al is also known to provide regular fixes of house on gottahavehouseradio.com and housestationradio.com.
This is Al 'Hot Mix' Holmes 2nd guest mix for the show - this time he is on a jacking 4/4 tip that captures the true House sound of Chicago.
As usual PT will be starting us off with a raft of new and tasty selections covering everything from chill out, deep house, [nu] disco, boogie, electronica, dub, and techno.

Dig Deep on Cowbell Radio #30 with Mark Grusane (BBE / Sounds Familiar / Spacedust)
Fresh from dropping a very popular set for the Dig Deep Mix Series last month, we welcome Chicago based DJ and producer Mark Grusane to Dig Deep on Cowbell Radio.
The more I learn about Mark Grusane's history the more I realise how much I don't know. It turns out, what I did know is only the tip of the iceberg.
A pioneer of underground disco and boogie, in his time running the legendary Mr. Peabody's record shop in Chicago, Mark probably handled and heard every disco record that was ever produced in the USA. Knowledge he put to good use when compiling the Night Drive Vol.1 A Journey Into EP and the Real Sound Of Chicago LPs for BBE Records.
