Mr. Scruff - DJ-Kicks

DJ-Kicks is a remix album by British electronic musician and DJ Mr. Scruff, released in March 2020 via iK7 Records.

Andrew "Andy" Carthy, better known by his stage name Mr. Scruff, is a British electronic music producer and DJ.

His stage name was inspired by his scruffy facial hair as well as his trademark loose-lined drawing style. He has been DJing since 1994, at first in and around Manchester then nationwide. He is known for DJing in marathon sets (often exceeding six hours), his eclectic musical taste, his love of a "nice cup of tea", and the quirky home-produced visuals and animations associated with his music. In an interview he said: "It’s about putting a lot of effort in and paying attention to detail. I get annoyed if I don’t take risks. I’m very hard on myself."

DJ-Kicks is a series of DJ mix albums, mixed by various artists for the independent record label !K7 Records

DJ-Kicks starts off its 25th year with a selector who’s been doing just that for even longer. Spanning the decades like a funky timelord for their special mix, Mr. Scruff brings some of the world’s best analogue and digital musicians together in a head-spinning melange of sinuous groove.

This double album 2LP record set is on black vinyl housed in a gatefold sleeve, pressed in Europe via iK7 Records.
