I’ve been sitting on this way too long. In 2024, I attended Sunsets and Shadows @sunsets-shadows and met so many people who are now my Reno family. Fast forward to 2025 summer and I was asked to play the first sunrise. The assignment: “deep dark and groovy” is the sound of the event. But 6am. So I took that as a challenge to create a journey of something that has two layers of deep dark and groovy, and light and optimism. This is one of my favorite sets I’ve done and I hope you enjoy it too!

Dr.Best - 25 YEARS JALAPENO RECORDS (Tribute-Mix)

Jalapeno Records are celebrating their 25th anniversary in the business. From a humble start in a basement recording studio on Holloway Road to a quarter century anniversary celebrated from their Brighton offices - Jalapeno Records has been an indie label with a mission - to bring the funk to the masses. Along the way that has taken in so many genres from chill to house, gospel to soul, breaks to drum & bass but it has all had a common thread running through it - the funk.

The label are marking the occasion with the release of a 3LP compilation featuring some of label boss Trevor Mac's favourite dancefloor gems from across the years.

For me, Jalapeno Records has been one of my absolute favourite imprints from the very beginning - hardly any other label has been and still is as present in my DJ sets and radio shows on Radio Z 95.8 Nuremberg.

25 YEARS JALAPENO RECORDS - a welcome occasion to pay tribute with this mix, for which I have selected 12 tracks from the anniversary compilation + one track from the The Allergies latest "Season EP".

- Hope you enjoy this little selection -

PS: you can find the complete compilation here:

Dr.Best - 25 YEARS JALAPENO RECORDS (Tribute-Mix)

I was delighted to see one of my favourite groups and hip-hop icons, OutKast, get inducted into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame recently.   I have been a huge fan of this visionary duo, since their debut album and loved everything that they have released.  OutKast kicked open the door for Southern hip-hop, when the focus was primarily on the East and West coasts.  Through their unique storytelling and their ability to blend genres and push boundaries, they let the world know that "The South got somethin' to say".
