A tribute to MF DOOM:

There was no option in my mind other than 2 hours of back to back DOOM music for this first show of 2021. This is not the way we wanted to start the year. Paying tribute to a master of his craft... His work should be taught in English classes at School.

I went deep into the crates for this one - 100% #DOOM selections, plus a chance to hear the interview with the supervillain himself from 2012 in full and unedited.

I remember the 1st time I heard of Lonnie Liston Smith; it was through the album credits of Jay-Z’s “Reasonable Doubt”. I’ve always been more intrigued with production rather than lyrics but still, I didn’t really catch on to his work until later on when I saw a video of Ski Beatz where he was explaining how he made “Dead Presidents“. That’s when I realized I had to dig deeper into LLS’ catalogue, especially as a young beat producer at the time.

Even since then, Lonnie Liston Smith has captured & mystified my ears with his music. Whether on the solo tip or with his Cosmic Echoes, LLS’ compositions are filled with funky rhythms, peaceful messages, celestial rhodes solos and timeless rhythms. He was, and still is a true visionary, and I’ll always feel like he was way ahead of his time.

For this mix, I selected some of my ultimate cuts, tracks that helped me escape from reality, travel to outer realms & meditate on my past/current/future endeavours.

This month Carhartt WIP Radio welcomes Dego and his genre-defying label @2000black. The British music producer and DJ is best known as one-half of influential duo 4hero in unity with producer Mark "Marc Mac" Clair. He was also part of the seminal jungle and hardcore label Reinforced – a platform where Dego released solo works as Tek 9 or again together with Marc Mac as the prolific breakbeat and hardcore pro-ject Tom And Jerry.

Today Dego is fully dedicated to his 1998 launched label 2000BLACK, that had a major influence on the London based Broken beat scene. Until today he runs 2000BLACK ceaseless under the guidance of the Roy Ayers words „Think about the future, think about change’, releasing peerless music rooted in funk, soul, jazz, hip hop, house and beyond.

For Carhartt WIP Radio, Dego dipped deep into the 2000BLACK label catalogue, to expand our listeners palette. So get ready for some broken grooves, deeper shades of soul and lots of funk out of the 2000Black universe!

As always, we also sat down with this month’s host in order to gain a deeper understanding of his ramified creative cosmos. Check the full feature at www.carhartt-wip.com/journal/music.
