Amazing Session, my friend - loved and repostet 🔥🔥🔥

we are currently listening in Osceola, Nebraska , in the Great Plains U.S.

Okay, this is a complicated one...
Back in 2006, Plushgrizzly from Aykaism.ch (now defunct) invited Jon H from Fort Knox Five to play a gig in Switzerland. He recorded the whole evening for a later broadcast on our common radiostation bigbeat.ch (now defunct). I'm not sure, we did ever play it, though... Not even sure if it was ever published in any way.
15 years later, I found this gem on my harddrive and played it during two episodes of my radioshow Eclectix, airing every Sunday, 6pm (cet), on evosonic.de.
First, I didn't want to upload it since I didn't know if it's okay with his friends and family over in DC, but after being asked by FK5 to upload it somewhere public, so they can share it with the world, I guess it is okay... ;)

For those not in the know: Jon H was 1/4 of Fort Knox Five, who died 6 years ago way to early in August 2015. He was an inspiration for way more people all around the world, than he could ever think of and I'm one of them. Thank you, Jon, for everything.

It's all about the Beats & Breakbeats. I have tried to gather some lesser known and even older tunes for this mix as well as some fresh new tunes with less of the gnarly type of bass sounds (we hear these days) but more of rolling funky bass lines and of course those lovely beats & breakbeats all hovering around the 112BPM mark.
