If you are a house music aficionado, then this is the quintessential mix you will want to add to your library arsenal. Celebrating a landmark anniversary for arguably the most influential house music label of all time, ‘Strictly DJ T.: 25 Years of Strictly Rhythm’ is a new mix album celebrating the rich musical history of the legendary imprint. Mixed by Get Physical founder and long-term Strictly fan DJ T., this compilation includes tracks from seminal Strictly artists including Logic, Aly-Us, DJ Pierre, Hardrive, DJ Sneak, Wink and many more, with a brand new edit of each track provided by DJ T. himself, whose love affair with Strictly Rhythm began in 1990.To make the mix flow seamlessly, DJ T. has edited each of the records included from the often tricky to work with originals. “These old tracks don’t really have a mix-friendly intro and outro; they often just fade out or stop abruptly” says T. “I wanted to make these classics easier to use in contemporary sets and to be able to improve a track, so that it becomes interesting and playable for DJs nowadays without changing its essence.” Take a listen below.
