Mix for @orokoradio radio titled “Summer Steep”. My first presentation on #OrokoRadio based in Accra, Ghana 🥰🫶🏾🇬🇭

In this mix I brought in a lot of my favorite R&B remixes by some of my favorite house music producers. ❤️ Not only do I love this combination soooo much but I feel it’s a beautiful way to introduce people who may not be as familiar with soulful house or its producers to get used to and ‘fall in love’ with the sound, as I have. 

So if you hear a song that touches you and you have never heard of the producer I strongly encourage you to look them up and the rest of their music. You will not be disappointed. ❤️ 

✨ Thank you deeply @bruthavinson for giving me the space and trust to take over your show for an evening 🙏🏾

DONIS - A New State of Mind
Hakeem Sybram, Goapele - Time Heals

Uptown Vinyl Supreme with k.tea @ The Lot Radio 08-31-2024

Uncle Iroh from ‘Avatar The Last Airbender’ taught me to enjoy tea slowly as we should do the same with breathing and life. Savoring each note and the intention behind why we drink tea. I mix in the same way, slowly, allowing musical notes to be enjoyed in its fullness, enjoy these songs in its entirety and enjoy your music and life a little slower. ❤️  Imperfect but delicious and warming ☕️

Sip Slowly, savory house mix w/ k.tea
