House Music Mix 2009
- Andy Caldwell
Over the past three years, Andy has focused on touring as a DJ, affording him an opportunity to share his love of music with fans around the world, playing records in every major city on every continent. In 2004, he and longtime colleague Bob Haynes (of Inspirit Music) launched their own Uno Recordings imprint, a joint label dedicated to edgy, experimental music laced with soulful songwriting, strong vocal performances and musicality. With a growing roster that includes Caldwell, Mei-Lwun, Behrouz, Yoshimoto and Soulstice, the fledgling imprint has already made its mark on the electronic and dance music industry. On Late Night with Andy Caldwell, he digs deep into his crates to construct a luxuriant midnight oasis rich with mood-enhancing grooves and radiant textures. This dynamic tour-de-force is an eclectic yet sensuous late night mix of deep house and organic jazz-inflected grooves with a gritty electro edge. With an arsenal of essential tunes that embody San Francisco's warm, soul-stirring tones, Chicago's pulsating jazzy-house bounce, Detroit's gritty and futuristic techno-funk, West London's rudeboy swagger, and Germany's minimal tech-house washes, this collection is a sparkling reminder of just how brilliant house music can be.
