HIGH CONTRAST - RAVE FOREVER 00s MIX (320kbs-m4a/63mb/27mins)
BBC Radio 6 Music broadcast: 9th August 2024
Welsh DJ and producer High Contrast takes us back to the 00s with this half hour mix.
High Contrast, aka Lincoln Barrett, made his name in the electronic music scene in Cardiff before releasing his debut album True Colours in 2002. He built his following across the decade, with several acclaimed Essential Mixes for Radio 1 as well as remixing singles by Adele and Eric Prydz. At the end of the decade he released his fourth studio album, the acclaimed Confidential, which was certified gold by BPI.
Fast forward to the present day and High Contrast has released two brand new singles this year, Be No Rain and Loved You So. He will also be playing live later in August at Hospitality In The Woods.
