Balance 009

Australia’s EQ Recordings turns up the heat once again with the exciting ninth instalment of the Balance DJ mix series, handcrafted to perfection by one of the hottest young stars of the global house scene, Paolo Mojo.

Featuring DJs such as James Holden, Desyn Masiello and Chris Fortier, Balance has become recognised as the standard for emerging world class DJs. The previous instalment (Desyn Masiello 008) won compilation of the year in both IDJ and M8 Magazines in 2005. Also featured in Inthemix's top 10 releases for the year 2005.

Paolo Mojo is delivers a genre-defying, funk-infected double CD mix of booty-shaking house, jittery techno, and every wicked groove in between with some classics thrown in for good measure. Paolo Mojo's sound might be difficult to pin down, but this broad, innovative approach to his craft is making him a name on everyone's lips in 2006.

Features tracks and remixes from Michael Mayer, Sebastian Tellier, Underground Resistance, Robert Owens, Funk D’Void, Der Dritte Raum, Nic Fanciulli, Nathan Fake, Petter & more…

Already well established for his tweaked out sets with the likes of Tyrant and Sasha at Fabric, and a well thumbed global passport, he's really come to the fore this year thanks to a succession of well received productions on labels such as Alternative Route, Big Love and Sabotage. Forthcoming remixes and projects with the likes of Brancaccio and Aisher, Alex Neri, Nic Fanciulli and Paul Woolford are set to raise his bar even higher.

His debut Radio 1 Essential Mix was among Pete Tong’s favourites.

Tipped by DJ Magazine, Mixmag, and IDJ as one of the stars of 2005, have all been quick to cite him as one to watch this year
