Celebrating 25 years online
After being partially down for the past few months I'm pleased to report that the site is now back up and running at full capacity again. The download store has been
re-opened but there have been some changes, more about these shortly.
Some visitors will have noticed that we have 'turned the lights off' as the site reverts back to its original black and green colour scheme from when it was first launched way back in the year 2000.
Other changes to the site include a more stripped down digital store with fewer tracks for sale. The plan is to remaster and compile the back catalogue tracks into a series of 'mix tapes' such as the one that has just been released for sale on this site. See article below.
The blog pages have been removed and replaced with a DJ mixes page featuring streaming audio of various old and new DJ mix sets plus a few old radio broadcast recordings from back in the day.

Many changes since 2000. . .
There have been a lot of changes in the time since this site was launched and it's hard to believe how quickly the time has gone.
This might not have been the most active or frequently updated website in the world but it has stood the test of time and predates many of the sites that are around today having been born in the web 1.0 world.
There were no such thing as social networks in the early 2000's, back then it was all about link swapping with other websites.
That was until 2005 and the advent of a site called MySpace, then a bit later on Facebook, who would go on to dethrone MySpace.
Then You Tube, Instagram and Tik Tok came along and then we have what we have today, a world where most people spend the majority of their time on social media platforms having everything they do and say monitored and censored and manipulated by algorithms. Welcome to 2025.

Critical Mass mixtape
Up in the digital store right now is a brand new 'mixtape' compilation consisting of specially mixed reworked and re-edited tracks from Casey Tucker /VFT spanning the past 3 decades.
Stream the entire project for free or purchase the audio in MP3 or WAV formats for a better listening experience.
The mixtapes will come as a package including high quality audio files in either 320 kps MP3 or WAV format, a video file containing information and trivia about the tracks in the mix, plus a couple of exclusive unreleased bonus tracks. The tracks are also available to buy separately.
