Fucking thank you so much for this mix. JUST what I need today!

Just wonderful! Thanks for the Direct download. Great selections, nicely put together. Classic now.

In Hour 2 we welcome back DJ Format alongside Phill Most Chill to celebrate the release of their album 'The Foremost'. DJ Format gives a run down of thier mix;

"Instead of doing yet another promo mix that incorporates a song or two from our new album, I thought it would be fun for me & Phill to each do a 30 minute mix of Hip Hop from our respective areas. I'm from Southampton, and since that's not a very big place I thought it would be more fitting to play some of my favourite old UK Hip Hop records. Philadelphia always had a healthy Hip Hop scene that boasted famous artists such as DJ Jazzy Jeff & Fresh Prince, Cash Money & Marvelous and Steady B just to name a few. Phill wanted to showcase some of the more obscure/random Rap records from Philly that he loves."

The Foremost is available to buy here;

Richard Hawley & his band played a Rock & Roll set after i'd finished!

Here's what i played -

1/ East Flatbush Project "Tried By 12"
2/ KAEB "Theres No One"
3/ Wu Tang Clan "Cream"
5/ The Fabreeze Brothers "The Breakdown"
6/ Edan "Beauty" Inst

It's 100 % Vinyl

BOCA 45 DISMALAND LIVE MIX

Here's my brand new 1h mix!

This is a return to my How To Cut & Paste style - there's a heavy emphasis on funk, jazz, soul, reggae, latin and hip-hop, plus a shitload of samples from my favourite movies and songs all relating to LUNCH (this is my first full project since BREAKFAST OF CHAMPIONS). 
I included exclusives of remixes I've done recently for The Charlatans and DJ Mighty Mi w/ Grand Puba. 
And there's some rare 90s rap freestyles, including one by RZA that I feel pretty certain doesn't exist anywhere on the internet!
Also, it's no coincidence that this mix is the length of your lunch break.

DJ Yoda - Lunch Breaks

This is my set (Slim Goodgroove) from the tribute evening for DJ Derek at The Bell, Walcot St Bath. I played as many of Derek's fav tracks as i could.

A great send off to a great DJ, Will be greatly missed.

RIP DJ DEREK

Slim Goodgroove - DJ DEREK TRIBUTE

After a hiatus of seven(!) years, I finally made time to drop a new mix. As the name suggests, this one is a pretty raw 60-minute mix of 23 of my favourite records from my DJ crate. Starting on a laid-back soul/funk tip, then progressing through some classic hip hop cuts before locking into a steady groove around the halfway mark. Featuring tracks by Gang Starr, James Spencer, Jeru the Damaja, DJ Format, Neko Neko, Margo Thunder, Lord Finesse, Marley Marl, Black Moon, The O'Jays, Bar-Kays, EPMD and others.

Nothing overly technical going on here, just an hour of booming funk, neck-snapping beats and conscious raps.

This is a recording of both of my half hour vinyl sets for our monthly hip-hop night Buggin' Out, held at The Angel Bar in Exeter. On 31st March(2018)I rocked up with a record crate full of Underground Hip-Hop 12's, LP's and 45's from the late 80s, 90s and early 00's. Golden Era heavyweights like Jeru The Damaja, Big L, Common, Dr Octogon, Beat Nuts, Public Enemy, Nas, Method Man and Souls of Mischief were all up in the mix together with a few really nice little Funk 45's. Big ups to Waxnerds for generously donating us some promo 7"s at our first Buggin' Out night in January 2018. The first record I dropped on March 31st was a Waxnerds release with some lovely Cali vibes from People Under The Stairs - still sounding fresh as always.

Buggin' Out (live vinyl mix)

Heavy Stylus: An explosive amalgamation of Jamaican roots, hip hop beats, heavy soul breaks and blaxploitation ghetto-funk.

I’ve been rocking funk/soul/beats/hiphop/roots for around 20 years in various bars and clubs across the South West, and have supported a wide range of acts and artists such including Jelly Jazz, Boca 45, Andy Smith, Quantic, Craig Charles, DJ Food, Bonobo, Gilles Peterson, Ugly Duckling and DJ Format.

Although I started as a vinyl-only DJ in Bristol, these days I use a pair of battle-scarred Pioneer CDJs as my weapons of choice. I’m currently a resident (of 11 years) at the Angel Bar on Queen Street, and in the past have held Exeter-based residencies at The Monkey Suit, Timepiece, Dr. Inks and Verve (now Urban Underground), as well as DJing regularly for Hold it Down.

(Oh, and in addition to rocking the ones-and-twos, James Monkman is also one half of Exeter-based independent videogame development studio RGCD.DEV, hence the goofy twitter tag).
