Mickey Pearce - FACT Mix 359

[Func]

The first FACT mix of December comes from Mickey Pearce, formerly Shortstuff.

One third of the team behind the Blunted Robots label, Shortstuff – and his scuzzier alter-ego, the Only Fools and Horses-referencing Pearce – emerged as one of the UK underground’s most colourful producers in that period c. 2008 / 09 where dubstep had broken down and those who’d originally fallen for its charms were drawing more influence from the syncopated shapes of UK Funky. Singles on Planet Mu, Punch Drunk, Ramp, Pollen and Blunted Robots followed… and then Shortstuff kind of disappeared.

In truth, we suppose he’s still gone: Shortstuff remerged last year, but is now trading solely as Mickey Pearce, signed to Loefah’s Swamp81 label. Last month saw the release of Pearce’s second transmission for the label, and so December seemed the perfect time to call in a long overdue FACT mix. Given that Pearce has always favoured the weird side of house music, it’s no surprise that his mix goes fully off the tracks at times, with morbid, quantised 808 jams sharing space with wonky, off-kilter techno.

Oh, and you’re not getting a tracklist out of him either – that’s what the comments section is for.

18:15 - Randomer - Search It Out (big tune, hope it sees a release)

I recognise the one at 23:00 ish, isn't it Pearson Sound? Or maybe Kowton?

Apart from that, I found this mix a bit dull.. the new one from Kloseone however is rad as fuck in case anyone missed it - Soundcloud

twas, him playing oliver$ made it, but playing au seve ruined it. don't people know that song is overplayed and it doesn't need to be in every mix. every advert. every set.

On the Download, sounding good from what i've just heard so far.

agreed, though I'm glad it wasn't Bashmore's new 'Husk' tune, that bores the shit out of me even more than Au Seve now does.

someone less lazy than me could perhaps graph his increase in popularity vs the quality of his choonage output. its quite dire at the moment, super lazy and uninspired
