About The Last Days of Oakland:

It means something to be from Oakland. The tiny city that birthed the Hells Angels, the first sports team in black, and America's oldest street dance has always been ground zero for counter culture. It is a place where violent crime, art, and swagger converge. It has always been diverse. It has always understood that danger and edge are critical ingredients for art and culture.

But Oakland is changing. As its neighbors, San Francisco and Silicon Valley, spill over with money, the economy in Oakland is soaring. Young entrepreneurs and aspiring artists are attracted by the city's perceived "renaissance." Oakland is becoming whiter and safer. Now Oakland is ground zero for the national discussion on gentrification.

Fantastic Negrito is an artist who bridges Oakland's future with its legendary past. He is a wounded veteran of the city once claimed by Black Panthers and hustlers. He is a vital voice in what the New York Times called "the hottest city in America." His album, The Last Days of Oakland, is about the fallout and rebirth that comes in the wake of a seismic shift. It is intensely relevant -- the way his city has always been.

Big track for me over the last year or so obviously championed by Craig Charles amongst others, so thought it was high time I got it up for the  FREE WAV Download - https://hypeddit.com/link/z4nuum

Featured this on my new Summer Vibes Mix over on our Mixtape channel - https://soundcloud.com/fvuk/dj-xs-london-summer-vibes-mix-2018-part-1-head-noddin

Was looking to get some 90s vibes in on the mix as that era encapsulates the summer feeling more than most in my mind and as always wanted to add a few exclusives so ended up putting together this badboy full of 90s throwback warmth.

Obviously working over Andrew Weatherall's 90s anthem 'Loaded' as well as some vocals from the Jungle Brothers with a nod to the Urban Takeover version released back in '98.

Up for the Free DL for my Soundcloud peeps for a short time only so grab it whilst you can!

90s clip of the next episode in Dinked Records ‘Fridays Funky 45’ series which features another pair of Daytoner ‘Shedits’ for vinyl DJs...

A. David's Doctor
B. Ooh Lalo

As the title of the A-side hints, 2 classic samples from David Axelrod (famously flipped by Doctor Dre) and Clyde Stubblefield have been combined to create a new twist on a hip-hop staple. If you’ve seen the Daytoner live show, you’ll have seen them open with some of these samples, embellished with live vocals, brass and FX.

On the flip, ‘Ooh Lalo’ is another instrumental twist for DJ’s and this time, the samples wisely used in a big-beat classic have been re-edited to include more of Lalo Schifrin‘s amazing brass and piano instrumentation, underpinned once again with Apache drums to create a rousing big band beat for breakers.

The first copies of the limited edition 7” vinyl sold out on the Bandcamp page inside 2 days but Dinked have also now made this available  in selected vinyl shops including Juno Records from Friday Jan 3rd 2020.

Grappa is an alcoholic, grape-based after-dinner drink. I hate the taste of it. I made this track around 2012 and recently ran it through tape. It's still one of my fav tracks. You can get it for free or name your own price on Bandcamp.

My contribute for yearly Hot Digits Compilation (YEAR SIX), glad to be included  on this huge groove box! 
Already supported by the master Craig Charles on his radio show on BBC6 radio!

Review by @discoholicsanonymous:
Last years Hot Digits Year Five was such an inspired release with 30 tracks by an army of Disco marauders. We’re mid 2020 already, and Hot Digits Music is releasing this years compilation today.

30 (!!) tracks by artists like Paul Older, Andy Buchan, Dexter Jones, Monsieur Van Pratt, Chewy Rubs, Fingerman, Ian Upfold and Boogietraxx, and the list goes on!

We’re talking a 30 track compilation, compiled and selected by Fingerman from original material which hasn’t been released before. You’re going to have a hard time finding a better deal than this anywhere!

You have the slow burners from Vigi and P-Sol and the mid-tempo floorfillers from Paul Older and Chewy Rubs, to the energetic bangers from Boogietraxx, Ian Upfold and Fingerman himself.

If you’re buying only one album this year, this will keep you happy for a long time!

Above you can listen to the mixed edition by Fingerman. It gives you an excellent sense what you can expect of this flabbergastingly phenomenal mastodon release.

With a history in digging and an unquestionable love for music, Markus Lindner, a.k.a. Delfonic, is one of the most versatile and informed DJ as they come.

He used to be the key character concerning music knowledge in Berlin.

An open-minded talent, with an uncompromising approach to DJing, he employs a style schooled from an upbringing in hip-hop. Delfonic is the model DJ - he’ll warm the crowd up, get them dancing and then provide the scope and context that will keep the heads on board.
