Name: Monthly Mixtapes - A Short Tribute to Ahmad (2010) by DJ Ian Head
Duration: 35 min 30 s
Description: April 16, 2023 - Still processing the transition of the legendary pianist Ahmad Jamal, who is responsible in many ways for my love of jazz music and given me so much inspiration over the last 25 years through his records. I made this tape back in 2010 as a short tribute to him, part of my previous "monthly mixtape" series.

This mix was recorded by Matt Nelkin in the summer of 2018.  Thought we should finally upload it.  Hope you dig it!

Monthly Mixtapes - A Short Tribute to Ahmad (2010)

In the recent times a good friend has gone through some rough times.
I'm far from home so I can't help as much as I'd want to so I did what I can:
Soulful music makes everything better so I recorded a soulful uplifting mix...

Hopefully it makes him and everyone who needs it to feel better...

'Stringfellas' - A Cinematic Funk & Soul Experience.

Download available here -> -> -> bit.ly/1Rjhzpy 

Decided to release this mix I've had in my archives for a while. Was never fully happy with it, but alas it's a new year so I'm letting it go.

As the title suggests this mix is a collection of funky, soulful and cinematic songs making good use of string arrangements.

Rev. Shines – Today’s Good News Vol. 4

Tracklist available here: https://blog.discogs.com/en/crate-diggers-mix-009-rev-shines/

Fulfill your soul and free with your mind with the latest installment of Today’s Good News, crafted specifically for Crate Diggers, in support of Crate Diggers Portland 2017. Inspired by records bought and people met from a recent trip around the world, Rev. Shines takes you on a journey of samples and discovery. This is an all-vinyl mixtape, using records found while on the road this past year.

Rev. Shines is a crate digger in its truest sense; Questlove once announced at a show in Portland, “Rev. Shines built my record collection.” Shines has performed in over 15 countries, is 1/3 of the Hip Hop group Lifesavas whom Rolling Stone Magazine touted as a “Top Band to Watch” in 2007, and DJs the most popular Hip Hop dance party in Portland, “Live and Direct”. His mixtape series, Today’s Good News has a cult following and sells out immediately online and at record stores like Turntable Lab.

While working at the Portland landmark record store, Jump Jump, Shines met and sold records to music legends like the aforementioned Questlove, J.Dilla, and Easy Mo Bee. Most importantly, he met the proverbial king of House music production, Kenny Dope, whom invited him on a world tour, DJing and digging in countries like Japan and Australia.

What does Rev. Shines sound like? A decade crossing beat visionary, inspired by golden era Hip Hop, Southern Gospel singers, and funky Brasilians from the 1970’s. His dynamic live sets simultaneously put smiles on faces, get heads nodding, and suggest feelings of an ever-present coolness.

BCR Radio Episode 009 - DJ Boogie Blind - Something Light!

Idris Muhammad's birthday was November 13, and so I thought I'd do a tribute episode to the legendary drummer (RIP) whose sound shaped so much of jazz, soul, funk, rock and later hip-hop. I was very lucky to witness his greatness once, several years ago at the Blue Note when he was playing with Ahmad Jamal's group. So here's a few tunes - only one from his own releases, while the rest are records he played on and shaped in his own way. I tried to stay away from the well-known classics but don't worry, it's all super funky. 

Tracklist: Idris Muhammad, Horace Silver, Charles Kynard, Grant Green, Shirley Scott, Leon Spencer, Eugene McDaniels, Ernest Ranglin
