Guest DJ Mix: DJ Jolie

~DJ Jolie~
A decade of Djing has been Jolie's passport around the world. DJing in some of London and the UK's top clubs since 1995. Jolie Won the prestigious award for ‘Best DJ' at the UMA's in December 2003 and in March 2006 was voted one of the top 10 UK Female DJ's in the Top 100 Female DJ's poll and placing her at a very respectable 36th worldwide.


November 1999 was Jolie's first international gig in Vienna, Austria. This set the ball rolling for a musical journey to France, Spain, Amsterdam, Norway, Italy, USA and India.

Jolie has been a popular choice of DJ in Germany, playing regularly at some of the most exclusive parties in Mannheim, Munich and Hamburg. She has recently returned from an almighty set at a private party on a farm in the Desert of Wafra in Kuwait. Jolie is the first female DJ to ever play in Kuwait, and future bookings back in the city are not far off.
Her tough funky beats and sassy style is enough to get any dancefloor rockin' , anywhere in the world.

Check out Jolies web site www.djjolie.co.uk for more details.



Many thanks to Jolie for letting me host her mix.

This mix was recorded live on Matt 'Jam' Lamonts Kiss 100 show a few years back & this is one of my favourity's. If you like the bumpin garage sound of London, this one is for you!

Out Now! Erik Dillard " U R The 1"
The Andy Holder Remixes.
July 2006





Erik Dillard provides the vocals for this exquisite, emotional gem. Andy Holder takes charge of remix duties. Combining groovy basslines, crisp beats and seriously hot keys. The Dub Mix throws in some tasty sax lines, whilst keeping all the slickness of the club mix. This is gaining heavyweight support from the dj community and expect to be grooving to this all summer.

Nice-one Andy, another blinder for Soulfunk-Digital, well done to all involved!

Graham Sahara (the resident at Pacha in Ibiza) – June 06
like the dub mix of this track although i think its a very commercial vocal. The vocal mix is ok but i´m not so keen on the vocal, the dub is much better and i have been playing this on the radio and out a fair few times.
cheers for the tune, best wishes,
Graham

Soulfuric comes correct with more unreleased pressure from the vaults! Finally the extremly hard to come by Groove Junkies Edit of Galaxy People is here! On this one the Groove Junkies take the He Is The Joy vocals by Donna Allen and mix them with Lenny Fontana's Galaxy People. Anyone who has ever had the chance to hear and see this one smash up a dancefloor knows what I'm talking about!


Also On this EP Is Andy Holders Remix of Orange Muse's Keep the Funk Alive. A rare edit with big builds and vocal hooks that will leave you asking for more! This one has also not been availible until NOW!

And Finally rounding out the bunch is the also previously unreleased MoD Remix of the Bongoloverz - Power of Music, a deep journey into the power of music!

My First Solo Release!

Andy Holder presents Rhythm & Soul
"Nothing Like Jazz" (deVICE.US) December 2004

Text quoted from Traxsource/Soulfuric

Andy Holder brings something special for the Deep House heads. Bubbling over with layers of deep sounds and a Sublime vocal, the Underground is going to be all over this one. The Original Mix represents the fusion of Jazz and Deep House to the fullest, while Andy Holder's Rhythmic Soul Mix presents more of a groove. As an added bonus, the Jazzapella Mix will see its fair share of duties as a DJ tool. Tracks like this don't come around often.
