Our monthly instalment of Mauriceness is here! This time he is in a Boogietastic mood, with his personal style of mixing classic and new gems
from his bottomless vault of records.Check his blog below if you want a tracklist.Maurice cut his teeth as a hip-hop DJ, danced somewhere in the background of a scene in Hairspray, programmed drums and played keyboards on above ground house hits by Crystal Waters and Ultra Nate, and started a stockpile of production pseudonyms — including Boof, Eddie & the Eggs, Sticky People, and Syclops — that likely numbers north of 20. His best-known work will forever remain within Crystal Waters‘ “Gypsy Woman,” but the early 2000s saw him achieve a different kind of notoriety as the non-shrieking half of Mu, a collaborative affair with his wife, Mutsumi Kanamori. Mu‘s Afro Finger and Gel (2003) and Out of Breach (Manchester’s Revenge) (2005) are two gleaming (or glaring) examples of left-field house at its least predicable and most terroristic.Find more mixes like this from Maurice on here
