Cheeba returns with a mix more typical of his live DJ sets. Setting out on some re-edited trip hop from the likes of Depth Charge and Waxfactor leading through to more upbeat dance floor devastation from Diplo, Afrika Bambaataa and Peter Parker. From the Ninja catalogue, The Slew and Scruff jostle for space with King Cannibal and two edits from DJ Food's recent EPs. Typically layered and cut up this is Cheeba back on a short break from his video adventures.

Recently I had the pleasure of performing at Crystal Palace Bowl in London as part of the South Facing Festival, alongside a bunch of heroes & influences of mine, namely DJ Shadow, UNKLE (James Lavelle & Ronin), Morcheeba, Zero 7, Chali 2na (Jurassic 5) & A Skillz, as well as my good friend DJ Cheeba.

Here is a 33-track 90-minute mix including some of the music I played during my sets at the event, and tracks from the artists that performed. One-take business.

Incidentally, last time I was at Crystal Palace Bowl was back in 1996, when I was an extra in the video to Chemical Brothers & Noel Gallagher's No.1 single 'Setting Sun' (!), so it was quite the trip to be back nearly 30 years later for this event! So as a bonus, for pure self-indulgence, I included that track too.

The mix also kicks off with a nod to Busta Rhymes, who headlined the festival the following day.

It was nice to be able to play some of the music on big speakers that I was playing in my bedroom way back when, along with being on stage with some of the artists that dominated my record collection around about that period too.

Shout to Rob Soundcrash & team, New Analog Design, Ishani Chakra, Big Martyn, Lauren & Ben, all the artists, and to all those folks that showed love. This one's for y'all! x

Bobby & The Xennial's Movie Matinee Mixtape 1985

These some contemporary rhymes,
Based off how I live in real life,
Head down, robed gown, waiting for my crown,
Can’t believe this moment, so many faces in the crowd.
I’m bleeding out my ears but don’t tell me to to listen,
Don’t tell me what to do, I’m informed with my decisions.
Went from old to new, soon as you hit listen -
In the trap playing Minecraft, push a brick like a piston.
If you ain’t talking money, I don’t wanna listen,
Unless you a bad bitch, I don’t care about those feelings-
He got clout on his mind, enjoy that temporary shine,
I really catch ears with my exemplary lines-
These some contemporary rhymes,
Based off how I live in real life;
Can’t believe this moment, so many faces in the crowd,
Head down, robed gown, waiting for my crown,
I’m bleeding out my ears don’t tell me to to listen ,
Don’t tell me what to do, I’m informed with my decisions,
Went from old to new, soon as you hit listen.
In the trap playing Minecraft, push a brick like a piston,
If you ain’t talking money, I don’t wanna listen ,
Unless you a bad bitch, I don’t care about those feelings-
(PROD.CYRUSXO)
