I just smashed out what could only be described as my best live stream ever! Granted I’ve not done a lot of streams…. but anyway it was still awesome. The Sydney Rave History Crew invited me to do a set on their long weekend mix-a-thon and I had an absolute blast, the feedback from you all was incredible. And maybe one day we will get to do it in person in a live venue. I have made my set available for you to download, warts and all. Get the MP3 here, or the high-quality FLAC here. Or stream it from my MixCloud.

Classic
Well it’s been too long, far too long in fact. But I’m still alive, still writing and enjoying music. In fact at the start of this year I purchased a Korg Kronos 2 and have been really enjoying it, more on that in another blog. Right now however, I have a DJ mix for you. I did this for a friends 50th recently and as it turns out, it is a banging mix with some tunes that don’t think I have really put into a mix, that is because I have tried to stay away from tunes like this in my mixes, ie: tracks everyone plays! But at the party I was playing at it worked very well and the mix came out stella! Enjoy!
This mix is available for download as an MP3 HERE
Elysian, The Mix!
Well here it is, the one you have been waiting for folks. Here for download is my set from Elysian. This set contains tracks that are entirely my own work, and I think I can safely say that they go off! At least that seemed to be the case, judging by the reaction on the night. It was a massive night and I enjoyed it thoroughly and so did the crew I was with. A big thanks to the SRH Crew for putting it on and inviting me to play.
Lets get ready to party!!!!
Get set for a treat. To celebrate my upcoming set at Elysian I am releasing (almost) every CD and mixed tape I have ever made in super high quality FLAC format! and you will be able to download them right from here. This has been 20 years in the making and about two weeks worth of work getting all the files converted and uploaded ready for you to enjoy.
For those of you that are not aware yet, I will be playing a special set at Elysian this weekend on the 19th March. I am down for the 9pm set. Doors open at 8pm so make sure you are there early so as to not miss a single thing. Vision Four 5 are down to play a live set at 12am, and I can tell you I am looking forward to that.
My set will consist entirely of tracks that I have written over my 25 year music career, some you will know and some have just been freshly made, but all are high N-R-G, hands-in-the-air tracks that will defiantly be crowd pleasers.
So dive in and take a look at the track lists below, download and listen, I’m sure you will not be disappointed!
(P.S. You will need a decent media player like Media Monkey to play FLAC files, as iTunes cannot play them. Your player will also need to have seamless playback so that gaps are not left between each track)

It’s On Like Donkey Kong
So this weekend just gone I was invited to play a set at an Old Skool Rave event. Besides the odd friends party or BBQ, sets are rare these days… It felt good to take over the decks in front of a real crowd, and didn’t they love it! Now, this may sound like I am blowing my own horn a little bit, but I’m going to say it anyway… I keep getting people telling me what an absolutely awesome set it was, in person, on Facebook and over the text messages…. well I’m thrilled that you all liked it and that it went down really well. I had spent about six weeks working through the back catalogue of tracks that I had personally created, I exported them from the old Pro Bars & Pipes files on the Amiga (yes Amiga! that’s what I used to write all my tracks on) and pulled them all into Cubase on my studio PC, I then set about remixing and re-mastering them all, in total I ended up with eight tracks that I thought I could play. Interestingly I made no changes to the structure of these songs but I did mix them in a modern way so they are much louder and brighter…. and boy! the difference is like chalk and cheese, the tracks could be modern tracks released just yesterday….
But don’t take my word for it, take a listen yourself. I have prepared a spacial mix for you all, I have re-recorded the set I play at the party, ‘It’s On Like Donkey Kong’….. I did change the track list slightly to include two of my tracks that I didn’t get to play on the night, but don’t stress they are just as good as all the others….. enjoy….
And as per usual you can get a direct download of the mp3 HERE
It’s On Like Donkey Kong by Steve Reaver on Mixcloud
May 1995 Remastered
Here’s a trip down memory lane. I ripped this mix off an old mix tape some time ago and when I listened to it again the other day I decided it was awful, the mixing was terrible and the sound quality was lousy. So I re-recorded and remixed the entire thing. Enjoy…..
Less is More
Finally it’s a new mix for you! An experiment with minimal house. Not normally the kind of stuff that I would play, but I figured I would take a listen and before I knew it I had made a mix. I could even be convinced to make a minimal track at this rate because I liked what I heard!
Positiva, another Dj Mix for ya!
A new DJ mix for you today. This one is a celebration of the record label ‘Positiva‘, arguably one of the most influentual record labels of the 1990’s. From dance, house and trance this label had plenty of hits, and misses! Artists such as, Hyper Go-Go, Dj Quicksliver, Deepdish and Fragma are just a few of the sensational line up that has had hit tunes on Positiva. Mixed on 21st November 2012, and you can download the mp3 from HERE. Enjoy….
‘Party Of The Decade’, it’s a banging house mix!
Another new house mix for you to pump! This is more-or-less the set I played on the weekend at my mates birthday party, there are a few tracks at the end that I changed because I wanted to have more recent tracks. No gimiks, themes or fancy pants stuff with this mix, just the best tracks that are around at the moment… enjoy… and as always you can download the mp3 HERE
And Yet Another Mix!
This is actually a remake of a mix I did in 1995. I found it on an old tape, but when I tried to record and convert it I was not happy with the sound so I did the obvious thing and re-mixed it, after all I still have all the records. The original mix was a lot shorter than this since it was recorded on one side of a 90 minute tape. I have added a few extra tracks on the end and I was careful to make sure that the tracks where from the same era and similar sort of sound. Anyhow take a listen and enjoy, and you can download the mp3 from HERE
