In a word, KABOOM! This is your f***in ELEMENT, JAKe. Beautifully produced, too. I listen to The Upgrade and swell with pride. (Super)HERO!

This Dj mix first aired on Super Sevens Resistance Radio and Burning Man's Shouting Fire Network in March 2021 as part of Super Sevens 6th Birthday celebration. All formats were allowed instead of the usual 7" format so I pulled some of my favourite 12"  'battle weapons'  from my DJ box for a high octane mix which includes "Superheroes Anonymous" from Chali 2na and Krafty Kuts, a track  which I co wrote and performed on.

Yoville! We’re back up in here with a gangbusters episode of The Allergies podcast. And, on the show this month, we’re all about our brand new album, TEAR THE PLACE UP (out now on Jalapeno Records!). So, expect jams off that, alongside the usual fresh and funky fair we like to pedal. We got funky big band beats, dope raps, and new party breaks to drop. As well as a bonkers upfront TUNE OF THE MONTH from the new disco/rap imprint, Studio 45. Plus, we have TEAR THE PLACE UP cover artist JAKe Detonator stopping by to talk about his collabo with us and his illustrious career. All before pressing play on a dope mix of his own sweet beats and some furious 45s in honour our our latest LP. Enjoy!

Episode #72 (with guest Jake Detonator)

Yo-ville! Get ready for episode #78 of The Allergies Podcast. We got West Coast/South Wales rap from Uber Magnetic. Punk rock b-boy ish from Buck 65. And a lively remix of a Little Simz track you might not have heard. 
Plus, a dope Tune of The Month from Voodoocuts. And special guests, Kraak & Smaak. The dashing Dutchmen stop by for a chat, before dropping off a sweet guest mix, featuring The Allergies remix of their classic track, ‘Money In the Bag’ (cop it when it drops!) 
Let’s go!

I've Been ReWorkin' - Lup Ino

In celebration of Hip Hop's 50th year, we've teamed up with London based ‘Classic Material’ to present a chronologically themed series of mixtapes celebrating the history of recorded Rap music, mixed by Chris Read. This sixth bonus mix focuses on another sub-genre popularised in the 90s which is not entirely easy to define. Loops of popular Hip Hop records arranged into club-friendly instrumentals, in their day these tracks were mostly referred to simply as ‘Breakbeats'. They were Club records first and foremost so ‘Hip Hop Club Breaks’ is maybe a more accurate description. Armand Van Helden’s ‘AV8’ is the label most commonly associated with the sound, although Nervous Records & its ‘Strapped’ sub label were perhaps equally active. A few other smaller labels like Slammin’ and Kingsize also played their part. A lot of DJs principally associated with House music or who produced both House and Hip Hop were responsible for many of these records, often under aliases – Armand Van Helden of course, but also Todd Terry, Kenny Dope, DJ Spinna and others. Many other names in the scene were known for making this style of Hip Hop almost exclusively – Crooklyn Clan, Davey Dex, Bobby J to name a few. Artwork here pays tribute to Armand Van Helden's AV8 Records.

The LOVE Mix

Classic & sought after Strata East jazz record. Made this edit a few years back, first just the original over the Q-Tip 'One Love' drums aka Parliament drums (Tip produced the Nas joint for those who didn't know :)... then decided to throw Nas acapella over the whole Heath Brothers tune. One for the dinner sets, mixes & radio shows. Wav files of both versions available on my bandcamp. Link below, enjoy!
