In brewing and distilling, mashing is the process of combining a mix of genres – typically malted funk with supplementary grains such as hip-hop, jazz, scratches are combined with breaks, bass, and Drum and bass.

Tropical Tea Party Ft. Ru Robinson & DJ Hiphoppapotamus 2020

Our (not)Goulash Disko mixtape is online NOW!!!  Inevitably there was no Goulash Disko festival this year, but as we were still allowed to travel to that gorgeous island a small group of us gathered on Kamenice Beach (in a safe manor), and felt extremely lucky and grateful to be able to play music and share in a very special vibe!

Upon return my animal friends Feline and Munki helped me try to recreate that vibe for all to hear.  Big shouts to the Stonefish massive, and big love to all the Goulash family both missed and present!  <3

Big hippo love, x
