Hip Hop Dj and producer, Roast Beatz, kindly hooked us up with this mix, which was originally to promote Bed Stuy, a Bournemouth based night he's part of, in order to accompany the interview we did with him.

Here's what he had to say about it:
"This mix is a good example of my progression as a dj.  It’s Hip Hop, funk and Nu funk.  I did it as a promo, and then it ended up being a Bed Stuy mix to promote the night.  Any one who says I’m not hip-hop can suck my left gonad.  I’ve learnt that playing 85bpm tracks too a sea of stoned hoodies is not the direction I want my DJ career to go so stepped it up a little.
All the tracks are fresh in there own right.  Orelha Negra Blessed for the bass line;  they’re a Portuguese hip-hop band make sure you check their album.  Treat em right Chubb Rock, simply as I’ve rocked so many parties with it.  Second to none Stay true to yourself as it takes me back to Eric Kostons H street section when I was 9!  And of course CB4 sweat from my balls.  It’s in the title! Enjoy!"

DJ Roast Broken Culture Guest Mix

Croydon's D&B badman came through with an exclusive guest mix for Broken Culture.

"It’s basically given me time to showcase all of my new tunes, most of them are collabs with Mr Joseph. It starts off chilled but doesn’t stay that way for long. I like the tunes to blend nice, it’s not about playing the newest tunes all the time."
