Old Fool Vibez
“Foolish” may be something of a misleading moniker for our man Felix, as he’s managed to forge a prolific career for himself as a producer and DJ extraordinaire, that’s seen him trot around the globe at one or two sweet as parties here or there . A charmed life. Not the existence of a fool by any means. It’d be more appropriate to call him “Spawny” Felix Dickinson. I’d be “Massively Well Jel” Duncan Diablo and Neil, well he’d be “Lazy” Neil Diablo.
Anyway, Felix is by no means foolish enough to rest on his laurels smoking doobies all day, he’s a very busy man, doobies or not (seriously, never met him, i don’t know if he does). The owner of Cynic Records, part of Mythical Beasts (International Feel) with Diablo favourite Toby Tobias, compiler of Originals Vol.5 on Claremont 56 and resident down at Bad Passion. And that’s just tickling the tip of the iceberg, delve back into any period during the last 20 years and you’ll realise exactly how prolific a producer and eager a collaborator he is, making beautiful music and parties with the best of the best.
Felix has been decent enough to allow us to host his recent “Foolishness” mix and it’s a mother fucking killer.

The Bad Passion Project, as you should know, is a posse of Dee Jays and promotors who specialise in bringing the disco pain to the London underground. With a similar taste in bookings to our good selves and a rep to protect for providing a fierce party in a sexy shithole (their venue not anus), the lads have been nice and safe in their attitude enough to furnish us with this bellisimo blend. Andy, Chris, Daniel, we salute you. (in a way).
