Solid Steel (2nd August) It's another special show as our own DJ Moneyshot presents another classic album deconstructed for the Solid Steel 25th Anniversary. Public Enemy's 'It Takes A Nation of Millions to Hold Us Back' is also 25 years old and to honour both occasions DJ Moneyshot shows us once again why he's the mixtape king with the career-best offering, Solid Steel and the Hour of Chaos. Over 60 blistering minutes he takes in all the beats, breaks, samples and spoken word nuggets that made this seminal Bomb Squad production such an explosive release. Amongst the vast stack of tracks in the mix, expect words of wisdom from Louis Farrakhan, exclusive interviews with Hank Shocklee, and all the soul, rock 'n' roll and early rap tracks that went into making up P.E's (if not hip-hop's) finest album. If you enjoy the mix, why not read Moneyshot's exhaustive feature on the album in the pages of this month's Future Music magazine?

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.

Tucker & Bloom Presents: Welcome to New Orleans mixed by Personify

Welcome to New Orleans: A tribute to New Orleans Funk and Soul is the work of New Orleans native, DJ Personify. Raised in the Crescent City, the die-hard Hip-Hop fan learned early on that many of the samples he discovered originated in New Orleans. He soon became infatuated with the Funk and Soul music recorded there and has spent the better part of the last twenty years immersed in the culture of those records. Personify’s passion for New Orleans' music and culture extends to the present day and is manifested in this DJ mix masterpiece. Lovingly compiled, all of the artists featured on the mix are native to New Orleans with the exception of Hugo Montenegro who plays alongside Al Hirt (a New Orleans native) and The Headhunters, who are included here because of their work with Bill Summers (a life-long New Orleanian). All songs and samples used on this mix were recorded from vinyl sources. You can find a track list and record release notes on the blog at http://littlebigthingscrew.com/audio/tucker-bloom-presents-welcome-to-new-orleans-mixed-by-personify/. Limited edition CDs with killer artwork and packaging designed by Case Bloom of Tucker & Bloom are also available for pre-order at http://personify.bandcamp.com/. The CDs are highly limited, so be sure to cop one before they are all gone!

We hope you enjoy and are inspired to go learn more about New Orleans music and culture!

-----------

Welcome to New Orleans is the first in a new series of DJ mixes curated by Tucker & Bloom. Focused on regional music, each mix will feature a DJ and record collector who specializes in the musical history of their town. Be sure to stay follow Tucker & Bloom on Twitter @tuckerbloom for updates on other forthcoming mixes in their new city mixtape series.

DJ Prime Cuts // Soul, Funk & Hip Hop Vinyl DJ Set

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
