One wednesday night in august 2012 I did a Ninja Tune retrospective at Faktorý Bar, RVK, playing some of my favorite tunes by my favorite label. 
Mixed on the fly with little thought going into what comes after the other, this is music to sip Indian Pale Ale to, and or porters. I also sprinkled a few tunes from friend-labels into the mix. 
Good scratches are made by the respective artists and credited dj's, shitty ones by me, and sorry about my newly-discovered delay button.

#57 Ajele - Löffelholz Mix

Solid Steel (16th May)This week the show has a distinct 80's feel about it starting with a mix from Cut Chemist featuring remixes and songs from 'Funk Off', a compilation of music by 1980's French post punk, industrial, minimal collective Vox Populi! and Pacific 231. Cut Chemist discovered their material in 2004 while on tour/record digging in Milan where he picked up a compilation featuring their track “Megamix”. Originally released in the 80s, the track was not rooted in disco, hip hop & DJ history but rather post punk and industrial influences. Music Concrete is what the collective would have perhaps described their approach at the time. “Wild Style on dust” was how Cut’s collaborator Tom Fitzgerald described it on hearing it 20 years later. Finding this record ultimately led to Cut Chemist tracking down the group, bonding over shared aesthetics and getting their blessing for this collection, which includes unreleased tracks, photographs and little-seen flyers and art from the group. The vinyl and CD are released in the UK on 9th June through A Stable Sound.
 
DK picks up the reigns in a similar vein, but starting with Illum Sphere's industrial edged Spectre Vex and then it's strictly 80's, including music from the UK that directly influenced Vox Populi, with tracks from Throbbing Gristle, Cabaret Voltaire and A Certain Ratio. Music from New York also features with Liquid Liquid and Death Comet Crew featuring Rammellzee and Italy's version of Delia Derbyshire, synth wizard Doris Norton, plus the Francois Kevorkian produced collaboration between Jah Wobble and Holger Czukay.

Clash DJ Mix - Nightmares On Wax

Welcome visitor to a brandnew edition of my Quiet Dawn mixtape series focusing on ...Folk Psych Funk.
As the 1960s melted into the ’70s in a colourful swirl of musical possibility, bands and singer-songwriters were experimenting with newfound freedoms. The psychedelic era had brought about many changes and much political upheaval in its wake. Discrete genres became fluid. Many acts fused different sounds together. Rock would meet jazz. Soul was mixed with psychedelia. In this fecund environment the nebulous yet highly prized form of folk funk emerged.

In what’s become a goldmine for crate-digging hip-hop and electronic music producers, keen to find an obscure and funky sample not yet rinsed out or carrying the threat of litigation, folk funk is a blend of acoustic guitars, looping repetitive grooves, jazz touches and full fat drum breaks.

You hear classics of the genre from Kenny Rankin or Terry Callier ,rare new discoveries by Quiet World or Kathi Smith and a killer new psychedelic take on the afro samba classic canto de lemanya. 
Turn on, tune in, drop out.
I wish you  a happy  festive season!  TW

VA QUIET DAWN III a killing me softly with..Folk Psych Funk mixtape by Tom Wienland

A new mushroom jazz trip is coming your way. 
This time presenting tracks from P.U.T.S., Slum Village, King Kooba, Jhelisa, Jazz Spastiks, Freddie Joachim, Damu The Fudgemunk, Fish Go Deep, Dave Allison, Get Down Edits, Greyboy, Young Disciples, Eddie Shinn, J-Boogie Dubtronic Science, Jazzual Suspects and many more...
As usual the whole playlist is available on request.

I like to make these long type of mixes to give an extensive idea of this kind of music. At the same time it 's almost like you 're listening a non stop mushroom jazz radio station.
If people in Belgium ask me what kind of music I am mostly into for the moment, the answer is mushroom jazz. Generally their response is, they never heard of it. But the name itself arouses curiosity...

The Big Mushroom Jazz Trip Volume 3

What better time of year to sit back, relax, and enjoy a good mix of tropical jazz with a fine bottle of rum? 

Picture this: low lights, the soft glow of a vintage lamp, and the soothing crackle of old vinyl. Three friends, a table scattered with records, and a bottle of aged rum, its warmth carrying us through the night. 

As the needle dropped, the room became a gateway to distant lands. From the sambas of Brazil to the breezy grooves of Guadeloupe, Haiti’s soulful rhythms, the hypnotic beats of India and Senegal, and the haunting beauty of Ethiopian jazz. Each record told its own story, tracing a map of warm, vibrant soundscapes. 

This mix is an invitation to join us on that journey. Pour yourself a glass, dim the lights, and let the music take you somewhere far away.

Old rhum and tropical jazz session

More jazz favourites from my personal vinyl collection. Mixed with love on a jazzy sunday for any jazzy day of the week.

Dexter - Sunday Jazz (Pt. 2/ Mixtape)

1001 Dreams  Eclips the  Night

A great and very original essential mix. This is a new rip from 2011, with an excellent sound quality.

Pete Tong's intro to the track: 
"""
Welcome to tonight's Essential Mix with me Pete Tong for another beautiful continuous musical journey into Sunday morning; when the sun just about decides to come up. This week making their debut straight out of under 21s team making their first full-team appearance, they are officially capped, it's the Psychonauts; out of Yeovil & Brighton collectively. Three guys, four turntables and a very clever performance indeed. Do enjoy it, turn it up, two hours from the Psychonauts.
