TS7 "Heartlight" (DJ Cable 'Back To 93' Remix)




Just a quick post to let you all know that my remix of TS7's Heartlight is now available to purchase from all good digital outlets!

I made this back in February after cheekily asking TS7 if I could remix his tune. Rather than go down the usual Trap and Grime route as I have done in my previous remixes, I decided to keep with the 90's vibe of the original version, and give it a warehouse/rave feel, complete with Amens, breaks, and few whistles.

I hope you like the remix; please feel free to leave your comments in the Soundcloud player below!

The League Presents: Essential Warm Up Vol. 1 (Mixed By DJ Cable)




We're back with the second installment of the Essential Warm Up series! Massive thanks to everyone who downloaded the first volume; I'm hearing that a lot of DJs found it beneficial, which is great to hear.

Keeping with the same musical format, I've crafted the finest selection of 2000's Hip Hop and R&B to make your working lives that little bit easier for that 11pm-12am warm up slot.


As usual, the mix has minimal tags, so it's club-friendly. We'll be moving into other genres soon, with other League members contributing to the series.

Whether you want something to help kickstart your night, or simply listen to whilst you're getting ready to go out, we've got you covered!








Bonus! Here's the video version of Volume Two!

Dizzee Rascal - Goin' Crazy (DJ Cable Remix)




So I recently cooked up a Trap remix for Dizzee Rascal's forthcoming single, which features Robbie Williams. Definitely had fun putting this one together...

Props to Mistajam for playing it all this week on his BBC Radio 1 & 1Xtra shows too!

DJ Cable - Backseat Anthem



To celebrate hitting 100,000 Soundcloud plays, I've uploaded a bootleg of Kendrick Lamar's Backseat Freestyle. I loved the original version, but thought it'd be dope to flip the vocal sample, add a few more 808 drums, and beef it up a notch for the club.

Originally this was only going to be one of those DJ tools that you would only hear me play in rave, but I thought I'd be generous and share it with you all. Download it now!


Thanks for the support as always, big up.

P.S. Shouts to Glen Stone for the artwork too!

Speakerbox & Do Androids Dance Present: Jungle Trap


Here's a new remix EP that I've put together with my good friends DECiBEL and Spooky, in association with Mistajam's Speakerbox and Do Androids Dance.

The project originally came about when DECiBEL and I were joking about sub genres...somehow we got on to the subject of Jungle, and decided it'd be fun to update some of our favourite tunes with a Trap flavour. We made a few edits, then Spooky then appeared with his awesome Body Snatch remix. We all joined forces and the rest is history!

Here's the blurb:

"If you don’t know by now, Do Androids Dance is particularly fond of remixes. The art of the remix, where you’re putting your own spin on established material, when done correctly, is a magnificent thing. Damn-near life changing. One of the best types of remixes, obviously, is when you flip one particular style of music into another, especially when it’s a sound that lends itself to awesome interpretation.

DAD is also fond of the days of jungle… you know, the sound of drum & bass before it was drum & bass. So when we heard that DECiBEL, DJ Cable, and Spooky had been working on transporting jungle tracks into a trap state of mind? We’re all into it. Brillz already showed ushow well an amen can work in a trap track, but this is going much, much deeper. You’ve got certified classics from DJ SS, Shy FX, and Jo (among others) being thrown into the 808-heavy sound of now, effortlessly. If you’re of the crowd that remembers when these jungle cuts were the talk of the town and needed some familiar turn-up without all of the 'Damn son where'd you find this', then Jungle Trap is all yours, free of charge."

The League Presents: Essential Warm Up Vol. 1 (Mixed by DJ Cable)




Here's a new mixtape series that I've started with my crew, The League Of Extraordinary Gentlemen, which should make DJs lives' a lot easier!

DJ-ing can be a tough job sometimes, especially when you're doing those marathon 4 hour sets, which is why we at The League have launched this dope series of warm up mixes so you can relax for the first hour of your club night!

All mixes have minimal tags, and are guaranteed to get your party started correctly... Subsequent volumes will move into other genres, so all you Open Format DJs will benefit from this. To kick things off, I've gone in with a selection of early 2000's Hip Hop & R&B.

Whether you want something to help kickstart your night, or simply listen to whilst you're getting ready to go out, we've got you covered!

BONUS! Here's the video version for you to watch (and download).

Slighty different tracklist. Same great taste.

Young Mind "Femme Don" - OUT NOW!




Easy people, just a quick one to let you know that there is a new release is now out on my label, Triangulum.

Moving into Trap territory, I've released two tracks from Young Mind, aka Kavsrave.

Having already seen support from a "who's who" list of DJs within the Bass scene -- Girl Unit, Gemmy, Mary Anne Hobbs, Starkey, Nero, Skream, Bok Bok, and most recently Hudson Mohawke and Rustie (the latter even featured one of his tracks in his Radio 1 Essential Mix) -- The artist formerly known as Kavsrave is quickly becoming one of the UK scene's brightest talents, especially with his recent journey into Trap/Electronic R&B.






Not content with just doing a guest mix for Mary Anne Hobbs' radio show, DJ-ing at one of Channel 4's infamous "Skins" parties, and constantly receive rave reviews from publications such as Fact Mag & Mixmag, he was even commissioned to write a song for the Hollywood blockbuster "Black Swan", titled "Illicit Dreaming". That's a certified boss move right there, which is why I had to snap him up for a release.

Blurring the boundaries between Trap & R&B, he's come with two rugged, yet melodic tunes; both of which can easily pass a Ciara instrumental, and wouldn't sound out of place in either an R&B rave of a warehouse rave.

Remix duties come courtesy of Mr. Mitch & DECiBEL, who take the energy level and multiply it by 1,000 trillion.

If you're a fan of TNGHT, Rustie, S-Type, Flosstradamus and Baauer, then get up on this.

It's now available to purchase from Junodownload, Trackitdown, Boomkat, Beatport, iTunes and all other good digital spots!
