Rubber Stamped Mixes

Rubber’s sets are all about versatility, he is equally at home dropping an Afro Tech club set, Beach / Sunset House vibes, Disco, Funk, Soulful House, Progressive / Trance or some fat Breakbeats plus he loves Drum and Bass. No matter what genre he is playing you will not find anything minimal, it is all about the melody and soul, hence his Slammin, Melodic, Electronic Music tagline. Nobody is going to get short changed either on set length on his watch. Rubber is renowned for journey sets with an average set being 3-4 and upto a record 9 hours long.

Currently in Dubai, previously London Matt Rubin aka Rubber has always loved his tunes. In London he ran his own JamBasha parties and rooms in association with House Music Heavyweights Kinky Malinki. In Dubai Matt had a residency at Fratelli and played regularly with Radio 1s / Hollaphonic’s Greg Stainer. Now with 3 kids and various sporting engagements live sets are limited. My gift back to everyone that loves their tunes is a regular podcast that spans the genres of decent electronic music.

DJ's, Groups and Tours Supported: Nick Warren, Bobby & Steve, Sebastian Ingrosso, K-Klass, Hoxton Whores, George Morel, CJ Mackintosh, Greg Stainer, Ian Carey, Choci, Drumattic Twins, Blank and Jones, Mische Daniels, Gordon Edge, Shades of Rhythm, Abigail Bailey, Raymundo Rogriguez, Graham Sahara, James Jackson, Mark Robinson, Grant Richards, Andy Ward, Dale Hooks, DJ Blush, Mark Dynamix, The Persuaders, Jamie Lee Wilson, DJ Flex, Afroboogie, Tom Craft, Stoneface & Terminal, Tocadisco and more...

I only buy AIFFS and I have started keeping my WAV recordings (96,000hz 32-bit) of my mixes which i then rip to flac for playing in HD at home. These are 2-4GB a pop but if anyone wants to listen in HD then contact me on matt_rubin@yahoo.com.

Enjoy the music! Big Love Rubber

106 - Rubber Stamped Soulful House - Rainbow - August 2019

I am back with my 4th mix this month, it would have been week if my CDJ lens hadn't given up temporarily. 29 tunes, 140 minutes on a house music journey! This mix is mainly soul but has a sprinkling of disco as well as a deeper cameo with a 3 tune detour with a slight garage element courtesy of JamBasha's own Adam Nyquist. Adam is back producing quality music as always and with an aggressive production schedule I am excited to see where it leads, respect! This mix takes me back to the House FM, ...

105 - Rubber Stamped Melodic House - Revelations - August 2019

Following on from my Progressive Tech "Global Underground" 2 part compilation, this set provides 2 hours of Melodic House for your musical pleasure. It would actually work well as a warm up set for episodes 103 and 104. With a slightly more chilled, less tribal and more progressive melodic vibe, it would be great for some sun-downers, at the pool/beach or the start of a night. With a few classics and plenty of vocals, this takes you on an uplifting journey building a little towards the end. Trac...

This is a part 1 of a new compilation of 2 mixes I have made to celebrate the Progressive Tech House sound associated with the likes of Global Underground, Renaissance, The Soundgarden, Therapy Radio, Bedrock, Transistions, etc. With lots of percussion and tribal beats my prefered sweetspot here is on the deeper side of progressive with a techy edge that drifts into melodic techno and afro house at times. Tunes and remixes from Nick Warren, John Digweed, Dave Seaman, ARTBAT, Nicholas Rada, Nick ...

99 - Overture - Rubber Stamped Deep Progressive Uplifting Goodness - January 2018

I didnt get a chance to make any mixes in December after the Dubai rugby 7s and before i left for my Christmas holidays in South Africa. I only just managed to squeeze this one in before the craziness of 2018 kicks in. I spent 2 nights record shopping and refining my selection before recording it the following night. Episode 99 is 33 tunes and 3 hours of deep, progressive uplifting goodness. Starting at 120 bm and building to 135+ at the end this will take you on a deep progressive journey. You ...

98 - Red Skies - Rubber Stamped Progressive - August 2017

Episodes 97 and 98 are kind of a set. I bought 40 tunes and then decided to split them into 2 mixes. I was thinking one could be an early or middle set and the other a late set but they both go on a journey and by the end neither is really a warm up set so they remain seperated but together....... The other set more tech and this one progressive with tunes/remixes from Jermey Olander, Ben Coda, PROFF, Eric Prydz, Jody Wisternoff, Dirty South, Sebastian Leger, Chicane, Paul Thoimas, Pryda, etc. o...

96 - Brighter Days - Rubber Stamped Drum and Bass - July 2017

After finishing off the house mix with mainly jackin and soulful tunes yesterday I decided to make another mix before our trip to see Norman Jay at Electric Elephant festival in Croatia tomorrow. I couldn't not do a Drum and Bass mix and I spent the early hours of the morning filtering loads of tunes and while I didn't have as long as I would have liked to do my research I was really happy when it came to recording the mix with the output. This is just over 2 hours of my favourite Drum and Bass,...

94 - Tuesday Maybe - Rubber Stamped Chilled House - July 2016

Waiting for my mixes is turning out to be like waiting for bus.......... My 3rd mix in a fortnight is what I am calling Chilled House. The 40 tunes I have handpicked take you on a 3.5hr journey through a few genres of down and then more medium tempo house music. Genres include progressive deep house, commercial house and what I call deep house which is not this stuff from last few years thats been branded deep house when its actually commercial but genuinely deeper house. There are some old skoo...

93 - I'm Here Again - Rubber Stamped Disco - July 2016

I started with a blank canvass 3 days ago and after trawling some records shops and finding lot of differnet tunes of many genres, I decided to go on a disco vibe. I narrowed down my crate to the following 25 tunes and spent some time on Friday morning moulding them together into a cheeky mix that is ideal for summertime. The mix is 130 minutes long starting at 114bpm and finishing at 124 bpm. There are some classic disco originals remixed by Joey Negro. Original artists include Cheryl Lynn, Gra...

92 - No Return - Rubber Stamped Drum and Bass - June 2016

It has been 2 years since my last Drum and Bass mix, can't believe that! I needed some big basslines and rolling beats so over the last 3 weeks I managed to narrow down 100 tunes that I liked and then finally bought 70. These got further whittled down to 60 after iistening to the whole tune in AIFF version once purchased. Then I had to programme the mix which was really hard because getting any sort of flow with that many tunes is difficult. I spent hours playing around with the flow until I was...

91 - Deeper Love - Rubber Stamped Upfront Beach House - November 2015

WARNING! This mix is a different from usual and probably not one for the purists. I was very much in 2 minds about making it but I have had a few requests for some main stream house dating back a while and the other weekend some mates were asking what sort of set I would play as a main set at a big outdoor beach party with a more commercial crowd. Figured it was a good test of versatility and this is the end result...... There's a couple of link tunes to pickup from a pretend warm up act and the...

90 - Never Worried - Rubber Stamped 5hr House Progression - September 2015

This is 5hr long player combines my last 2 mixes starting with a mixture of melodic deep house and nu disco. The set gradually builds moving to some quality progressive house, then again at the end the tempo picks up as I move it into some pure uplifting goodness! Ideal for a house party where you want a soundtrack that progresses. Wherever and whenever you listen, make sure you turn it up!

89 - Hope Rises - Rubber Stamped Nu Disco and Deep House - August 2015

After the success of my last podcast a few days ago i was inspired to push on and make another one. I started record shopping with an open mind and found myself drawn to some nu disco but also some deep house that was more on the melodic / funky side than what i would originaly have called deep house (more minimal) 5-10 years ago. I bought 25 tunes and this mix starting at 114bpm and finishing at 124bpm (fairly downtempo) aims to fuse the 2 genres smoothly together all the way through the mix ra...

88 - Two Sides - Rubber Stamped Uplifting Goodness - July 2015

With my beloved Sands and Sam away in SA as its fairly hot here in Dubai, I am in that quieter time of year again and finally I was able to spend a few days record shopping. After a couple of house mixes and a big beat bouncer earlier this year, I fancied making something more progressive and uplifting and the end product is 3 hrs long, using 33 mostly new tunes. I did however manage to sprinkle in 3 or 4 oldies for good measure including the last tune "I am" by Chakra albeit a new A&B remix...

87 - One Way Back - Rubber Stamped Breaks - April 2015

As we roll into April, it just felt like time for fat, rolling, funky breakbeat goodness.......... I have always been into my breaks from the minute as a teenager that I first heard those big juicy beats, kick drums and rolling basslines, I was hooked. My first taste came during my early trips to Brighton when me and the Bucks Boys used to party at the beach club where a certain Fat Boy Slim ran his "Big Beat Boutique" promotion. That early big beat was just perfection to me and I followed the g...

It's been a few months but inspired by my good mate Chantz, Rubber is back with a bang. I've put together 2 hours of quality house music for your listening pleasure. I found and purchased 30 tunes which i then narrowed down to 22 after a full HD listening to make a punchy 2 hour mix. It starts off very global undergroundish and a bit tribal then moves into various genres of house mainly 120-125 farily deep and progressive with a sprinkling of techno rising to a peak with a real funky jacking tun...

November leading into December for me is one of the best times of year, the football season is in full swing and so is the rugby 7s series in the UAE. I can't believe it has come round so quickly again. I am hitting Thailand for a chilled few days before SA for Christmas so I needed a holiday mix. I just put together a 3 hour warm up style set of 35 new tunes that I picked up last week on Cyber Monday thanks beatport for the 45% discount code! This is a house music mix that builds nicely up over...

I managed to spend a couple of nights last week trawling through beatport and some online record shops for some new tunes and today I had a rare few hours spare to finally gave me time to record a new mix. I used 28 tunes to make a peak time set of progressive house tunes mainly at 126-129 bpm so its quite pumping. The mix is 2.5hrs long, sit back relax and turn it u...

Mikey Mattacola kicks off the set on his own wedding day with an eclectic mix of funk and soul before changing it up a bit and going more housey and tribal. Mikey has a break at 2hrs 19mins as it is left to Rubber to step up with some house classics supported on the dex by a fairly smashed Mikey who was having great fun creating some effex with a few extra effex sprinkled on top for good luck .
