A rework of the Donny Hathaway track 'I believe to my soul', to try and take the best loops and vocals from the track without doing it to much disservice. Thanks to Beasty Collins for some inspiration for trying to do something with this track too!

Believing in Donny

To give people a flavour of what you can hear on a usual night at one of my Oxford monthly residencies, I put together this mix to celebrate the sounds! Usually stray away from the harder beats and breaks, sticking to some old school hip hop, funk, reggae and a few tasty beats! Enjoy and check out the tracklist below!

Puerto Rican Pete

A little something to help us in this time of lockdown... A second Fajita mix in 3 weeks, among the million others also doing the same at the moment!
This is strictly laid back hip hop and vibes, under 100bpm, just in time for the sunshine round the corner, and BBQs (in your garden of course)...
Expect a more uptempo mix in the coming weeks to accompany this, and give you a weekend soundtrack...
Please like, comment, share, repost etc etc!

Little mash-up I have been working on that samples both Mystikal and Tall T and the Touchers...although the drums are all self-programmed.

BBC Introducing Artist 2012
Reloop DJ Mixtape of the Month February 2021

Fajita Funk are a group of  South West DJs, bringing uptempo party cuts breaks, beats, reggae, hip hop, latin and all inbetween to many clubs and bars across the South of England, and beyond (Oxford, Exeter, Woolacombe, Bristol, Bath, London). They currently hold residencies in Oxford, (The Library), and in Reading (Milk).

Their mixes have been pleasuring the ears of the internet community for years, with the boys appearing as guests across various internet radio shows.

Their production work is still in its relative infancy, but already they have had one release on Tru-Funk Records, 'Edwin's Phat Man!' The work has also been getting support from DJs such as Hong Kong Ping Pong, Cut La Vis, Ewan Hoozami, Dropsteady Freddy etc etc. Other tracks have been recognised through the renowned Spinforth Scour. As DJ support for the likes of Boca 45, Dan Greenpeace, Breakin Bread, Itchy & Scratchy, and Smoove amongst others, they are a sure fire winner!

Please keep peeled for more mixes and tracks on this page.
