MemeMix010: Change The Channel Pt.2
Continuing our laid-back approach from MemeMix009, we've kept number 10 real simple by taking our favourite songs that we've recently bought on vinyl and compiling them together on one soulful summer mix for you. Included in the track-listing we've got two (count 'em) songs from the veritable Mr Day (one a DJ Vadim remix), and the brilliant 'Baby' from the soon-to-be-massive Phenomenal Handclap Band.
We know you like it laid back, so we've put together a very cool mix of some of our favourite soul jazz tracks into one half hour mix. After the excitement of our inaugural party and the sheer noise of MemeMix008, we know you'll love to lie back and think of Meme...
Following on from our successful MemeMix004, we bring you another half hour selection of nu-rave, electro-punk music. With a couple of mighty Justice remixes, Hot Chip, Santogold, TEPR and the curious yet beguiling 'I Wish I Was A Polar Bear' from Ted & Francis, this is a mix that will keep you warm over the winter months. Cook for 33 minutes at Gas Mark 8.

MemeMix007: Jacksonism
We gave this mix a bit of a theme by collecting together our favourite Jackson 5 and Michael Jackson remixes and re-edits into one groovy half-hour package. It was originally put together prior to Michael Jackson's death, but subsequently revisited it to tidy it up a bit. There are plenty of surprises and some excellent tunes, even if you're not the world's biggest Michael Jackson fan.
