Heavy but Mellow v1

This volume of Heavy but Mellow showcases a'lot'a the dope'azz hip-hop flips l've found recently. It's ~85%+ of what I played for my solo slot at Deep Roots this year, with a bit from my b2b with my lil' bro Tyles.

Curated for all my homies with a hip hop & bass fixation so they can rinse this out on repeat while they pack & travel this festival season

Thinkin' about droppin' the first Mellow yet Heavy mix when I hit 1k followers, so if you wanna hear it share tf outta this mix this weekend and lmk in the comments if you can't wait til then 😉

Heavy but Mellow v2

Yoyo thank y'all so much for 1k! I admit this one may not be as hip-hop as the intro may imply but after I made that intro I couldn't not use it 😉 Tracklist at the bottom after I ramble & self promo my music fest for a bit.

This mix is most of my current favourites, the transitions are a lot quicker than I usually make but I had a lot I wanted to showcase and didn't want anything getting stale, the swift transitions aren't what you'd get from me in a live set; this mix is meant to hype you up at the start your day, jam it at the gym or bump it loud AF stuck in traffic or smashin' out those dishes your roommates left on the kitchen counter for TOO DAMN LONG. 

This is the first mix I've put together fully in the studio, I used it as a reason to start learning Bitwig, but it's very similar to the set I played at Wicked Woods this year, just with a lil extra spice.

I know the BPMs kinda all over the map, lemme know if you're vibin' with the diversity and quick switch ups. I originally intended to release the first volume of Mellow yet Heavy when I hit 1000 followers, but I realized I want that one to be entirely originals, flips & edits, and it's gonna take me a bit longer than the 1k release window since it crept up so fast recently, much love for that ♥️

Quick shameless plug: Come check out Deep Roots Music Festival May 30th - June 2nd 2025, if you're from the states and you're reading this and wanna check it out, hmu and I'll get you a ticket code that makes the price fifty bucks. Spreadin' the good word is the best thing I can do for our success, and there's far more peeps into what we're doin' on your side of the border. (shoutout Denver being my top listeners' city, someone book me! Just cover travel & I'll open for whoever ;)
