We’ve already had our souls completely nourished by the music from Simon Shackleton‘s new album ‘Pieces Of Me’, and he’s here to keep that nourishing trend going. The reason for this is that he’s taken up a monthly residency on Proton Radio, where he handpicks his own favourite ‘pieces’ of breathtaking and sublime Tech House and Techno to put in a one hour mix that airs every first Thursday of the month 7-8pm (UK), 2-3pm (EST), 11am-12pm (WST). We’re bringing you the third mix in the series which means after a listen to it and his new album (posted below) if you haven’t already, you can let your mind sail away with the other two mixes that can be found either on his Soundcloud page or his website. Stunning sounds await, as standard.

Download ‘Pieces 003′ here from Simon’s website.

Buy ‘Pieces Of Me’ here from Bandcamp.

The launch pad for many a career in DJing and a long running home of the International Breakbeat Awards, Breakspoll. Atomic Hooligan winners on the night of 2008 have dropped this Retro mix that was recorded by BBC Radio 1 on the night and aired on the Annie Nightingale show.
