Hello. So many things have happened over the past few months. Poptart is currently planning to start its residency in a new venue, and things are looking great! We will hopefully bring you some big news in the coming weeks.

Also, the reports that Amy Winehouse passed away was pretty big and sad news. No matter what people think about her lifestyle, the world has definitely lost one of the best voices of our time.

So here is a Poptart mixtape I put together with mostly new tracks that have been tickling my fancy. Play it loud and serve it with a pot of really spicy curry?

Hello! It’s about time Blake Baxter asked ‘ what happened?’. I’ve been asking myself the same thing lately, and at the same time, feeling good ole house getting back into my veins. If you didn’t know, Abstract Relations had a strong house/tech influence when I put out my first mixes in 2004 (I should reup those!)

So here’s a mix I’ve done with some recent finds. Hope you can feel it like i feel it.

Happy Holidays!

I have to admit, inspiration for new mixes have been dry of late. I’ve been finding it so difficult to get turned on by  new stuff. Here’s something i managed to compile for a mix, it’s spacey discoey and groovy…I think it’s good for a mild shakin’ boogie; and the final track by Sally Shapiro- that’s pure bliss and i had to put it in! Let’s hope for more outstanding releases soon, I need!
