Friction kicks off brand new Ministry Of Sound mix series

Ministry of Sound Present Mixed... a brand new series from the pioneers of dance music aiming to untap the freshest DJ talent from around the world and deliver it in the ultimate album package for the electronic music connoisseur.

So here we go, Mixed is very proud to bring you none other than DJ Friction to the launch the series. The Brighton raised, multi award winning DJ Friction is a member of an exclusive club; he is one of a handful of drum & bass DJs to have smashed through the ranks and become a superstar in his genre primarily through an unbelievable talent behind the decks. This year has seen the Quartz-lock kid add more accolades to his ever increasing CV and is regarded by many as not only the most skilled but the most diverse DJ in drum & bass. So far, this year has been another non-stop roller-coaster ride for Friction with gigs from London to Sydney to Korea and even Hawaii. Although the schedule is fierce a Friction set never falters; whether he's on two or three decks (strictly vinyl and dubplates of course), playing for two hours or four, people are rapidly learning that, drum & bass fanatics or not, a night with Friction will be one to remember. So it´s with great pleasure that Mixed hands you over to the Shogun Audio master, DJ Friction.... www.myspace.com/frictiondeejay

CD1 - Strictly for the dance floor... Friction quite simply tears the roof off with a barrage of heavy hitting bass from Nu Tone, Die & Interface, Sigma, Netsky, Drumsound & Bassline Smith, Spor and if that wasn't enough Friction also thrown in some extra hot exclusives from Zinc Ft Ms Dynamite - Wile Out (DJ Marky Remix), Doctor P - Sweet Shop (Friction Remix) and Friction vs Camo & Krooked Ft Dynamite MC - Stand Up to give this first Mixed edition some extra vacuum-packed freshness. Good times indeed!

CD2 - The deeper side of D&B... ever the mister versatile, Friction then pulls things up a little with an epic selection of gnarly dubs aimed at the more discerning tastes. Hold tight as we’e taken on a deep and dark excursion into the murky world of Alix Perez, Spectrasoul & D Bridge, Noisia, Alex Reece, and Lenzman to name but a few. You have been warned, listen and learn as Friction takes no prisoners.
