We’re right in the middle of summer party season (if you’re in the northern hemisphere that is… sorry Ian!) so I came out with the big guns this week! I had a great time with this one too, and from the look of the chat box and all of the instant messages, you guys were [...]

Summer is always a big time for new releases with labels holding onto their monster tunes until the big festival / Ibiza season, but this year it’s just a little bit crazy! There are so many beautifully bouncy, sun-kissed tracks doing the rounds… and not the thrown together, cheesy, hands in the air tracks either. [...]

A show of new, new and a bit more new this week! New toys in the form of a Traktor update from the old Scratch platform to the pro software, which is simply superb. I’ve been rocking the old format for a few years, and never really saw the need to upgrade, but holy smoke [...]

We decided to delve deep on the crates for this show including tracks from 1980’s diva Joyce Sims, Ray Barretto’s absolute classic Acid and the ultra rare Life On Mars from Dexter Wansel. Also we played for the first time a track that we put together Into My World which features Trevy Felix from Boom [...]

This week we continue our usual eclectic mix with the inclusion of the classic Expansions by Lonnie Liston Smith. This I feel is a must for anyone’s jazz funk collection. It was one of the first funk records I bought, which included at that time Bob James 1 and Kool & The Gang’s Spirit Of [...]

Ah, the World Cup and house music… there’s few better combinations in life! Super excited this week for the start of the competition, and there was plenty of chatter over on My House Your House during the show all about England (and America’s) chances this time around. It’s party-time in the CheckPoint household this weekend too - watching [...]

Thanks so much to everyone for tuning in to our debut show! We had a couple technical hitches… well, pilot error really, but all in all, everything went well! Thanks so much to CheckPoint for all his help in getting us up and running and My House Your House for giving us the opportunity [...]

Streetnoise! has arrived! We are very proud to welcome the superb new My House Your House show Streetnoise! to the My Cuppa T family. Hosted by the incredibly talented and infinitely informed Mr Stephen Zelenka - another Brit living it up in LA, the show features a beautifully eclectic mix of funk, soul, rare groove, house, hip [...]

Summer’s definitely here in sunny Southern California, and the tunes have been seriously heating up over the last few weeks too. A huge thanks to the usual contributors: Kahua, 8D Promo, Berwick Street and the man from down under! A special mention has to go to Ian over at Kahua for the superb Kahua Music May 2010 Sampler. You [...]

I’m back, and i’ve really missed you guys! We’ve been over in England for the last few weeks, visiting family and friends before the arrival of the little one, and what I time we had! Thanks to everyone who came out to play in London and Yorkshire - it was so great to see you [...]
