MASH TUN Vol 4

The times are changing and despite having great success as a full time musician for the last 6 years…. the financial pressures of today are making it VERY hard for me to continue being an artist at all!  Even just affording my bills and rent is a struggle now, let alone the mastering, artwork and promotional costs it take to release my to release my music.

So its time for me to double down and call upon my following.  I'm offering exclusive mixes, tracks, DJ Tools, production tips and much more in exchange for the price of a drink every single month!   

So... If YOU want me to continue doing this AND release more music than EVER!  Then please go to my Patreon page below and sign up for great music content every month!

February's Offerings...

1. Take Me Back - To Piaui - Hiphoppapotmus & Extra Medium 

The Piaui remix I did with Extra Medium has been such a key part of my set for the last few years and one of my most requested songs to be released... so here it goes to you guys first! ... With a tip top job on mastering by Duncan at DC Mastering!

2. Dancehall Lover - Hiphoppapotamus Ft. Dandelion

The 'Dancehall Lover' track has been on the back-burner for almost 7 years now!  I love the cute little cheeky vibe on this.   I commissioned the vocal from Dandelion (of the amazing reggae groups The Hempolics and The Drop).   Massive points if someone can guess the obscure source of the track i sampled!   😆

3. Marky & XRS - LK (Hiphoppapotamus' Sax Edit)

This sassy edit is a free bonus track this month to every one who sign sup to my Patreon!  It features the incredible Dave Sanders on the saxophone who is honestly one of the most amazing musicians I know!  We were so blessed to have him as our very first sax player in Hippo Sound System.   He's now mostly occupied with his modern jazz fusion band... Snazzback ...I strongly recommend you check them out if you haven't already!

Extra Medium brings the swing to new places, with his brand-new remix of Electric Swing Circus's into track 'Her' from their album 'Pleasure Seekers.' 

The Electric Swing Circus are back to bring the 1920s to the 2020s with their innovative brand of synth pop and electro swing.  Their soaring pop vocals, jazz instrumentation and pulsing electronics feel both 100 years in the making and completely fresh.  

Having travelled around the world  showcasing their sound, The Electric Swing Circus are known for their captivating live performance combining gypsy jazz guitar, vintage samples, double bass, drums, synths, all fronted by two enchanting female vocalists.  Anyone who has been to one of their shows knows it is nothing short of exhilarating, and this is reflected in their recorded music. 

Their latest album 'Pleasure Seekers' has been ripe for remixes with the latest instalment coming from long time Electro Swing veteran and the head honcho of Thick Boy Records, Extra Medium.

Extra Medium's remix of the track 'Her' is a vibrant celebration of jazz, swing, UKG, future garage and 2-step.  The track takes us through a feel good jazzy and soulful intro laced with lush keys, brass licks and glitchy vocals, which builds in a deep pulsing UKG banger filled with more wubs than you can shake a stick at.
