Carl Cox Stems Mixtape
Mixtape

Dance veteran Carl Cox is about as seasoned as they come: anointed King of Ibiza; a pioneer of acid house in the UK and a man with over 150,000 records to his name –– he's an institution unto himself.

As part of our partnership with Native Instruments, Carl turned in a brand new mix recorded using the new open multi-track audio format Stems. As a man who pioneered the three-deck DJ set as well as clocking over 10m views on our own channels alone, there was no-one better to showcase the enhanced creative possibility this new format offers for DJs. Dive in to thirty minutes of the master sliding together great tech-tonic plates with all the panache you've come to expect from one of clubland's oldest guards.

From the reel-to-reel through to his latest run-ins with STEMS, he's maintained a reputation as an early adopter.

So who better to define how the edit has developed since the early experimentation of the mid-60s? Read on as Greg dives deep in this extensive and personal exploration.
