This downtempo mix from Altern 8’s Mark Archer is perfect Sunday listening…

Better known for donning a hazmat suit and monogrammed face mask – long before the coronavirus made it fashionable – Altern 8’s Mark Archer is also an accomplished selector, as this mix, posted to his Mixcloud a few days ago demonstrates.

The Downtempo Rave & Street Soul Mix features a selection of mellow tracks released during the years 1988 to 1990 – from artists including Soul II Soul, Cry Sisco!, Electra, JT & The Big Family, Fidelfatti, Kicking Back and many more – and is essential listening for a hungover Sunday (or any other day for that matter).

As the man himself put it on Twitter, it’s “what dancing in a field was made for. Big jeans, jog bottoms, long sleeved t shirts, dungarees, kickers and wallabees are optional”. 🙂

Keep up the good work, Mark!
