Get ready for a special edition of Traxsource LIVE this week as Crackazat is in the house and about to lay down 60 minutes of seamlessly mixed jazz-infused House Music - laced with LIVE keys throughout.

Originally from Bristol England, Ben Jacobs aka Crackazat is a multi-Instrumentalist and electronic producer who has quickly become recognized by some of the finest forward-thinking labels (Freerange, Razor-n-Tape, Foliage, Local Talk, and more) for his unique ability to blend Jazz and House Music. His new album ‘Evergreen’ on Freerange marks a milestone in the young talent’s career as he delivers a scintillatingly soulful and jazz-enriched masterpiece available now at Traxsource.

Featured in the show today, Crackazat selects tracks from Javonntte, Intr0beatz, Kai Alce, Groove Assassin, and several cuts from the new album to build an exciting, cohesive, and well-rounded listening experience.

20+ countries, 80+ radio networks and 10 million+ weekly listeners can’t be wrong. Keep it Traxsource. Keep it underground.

It feels quite surreal to say this, but Episode 03 of the Balearic London mix series is brought by none other than Italo house legend Don Carlos. Starting his DJ career in the late 70s, he is best known for his production debut 'Alone'. Widely known as the epitome of what dream house is, the track combines emotive piano chords, crisp percussion, and ethereal pads in what is beautifully floaty yet perfectly punchy perfection. Since then he's released more underground hits under his own name as well as his Montego Bay and Aquanauts monikers. He isn't just a legend of the 90s though, his releases in the recent years on Freerange Records, Utopia, Irma Records, and remixes on Wolf Music and more show that his music sounds as fresh now as ever.

We are so excited to have him as our next guest of our mix series. Get stuck in, and join us at Distillery N17 on the 5th of September where he will be headlining his first gig in London since 2020. Get your tickets at https://ra.co/events/2185010

Glenn Underground 
Chicago, USA | Strictly Jazz Unit Muzic

Let's tak about Glenn Underground....
Glenn Underground’s early musical atmosphere was soaked in the very best jazz, soul, funk and disco. With many family members musicians and being a native Chicagoan Glenn existed as a kid in a toy shop when house music was born. In the early eighties he began expressing his love for rhythm and soul, fostering the house scene and priming his masterful music commentary. 
Later that decade he would begin producing and promoting his own pieces of music which set the tone for a truly astonishing and inspirational producer going to work on hundreds of magnificent records. Keeping the true sound of house music definitively alive.

Glenn Underground is the founding member of the Strictly Jaz Unit. He was raised on disco classics and freeform jazz in Chicago's Southside, the place where house music was born. Taking inspiration from Chicago's original pioneers, Larry Heard, Ron Hardy, Lil' Louis, and the like, Glenn has produced some of the most well respected deep house music of the past five years. His releases for Cajual, Prescription Guidance and Peacefrog have set the standard for sophisticated dance music. He is one of the few DJ's who can walk the line between deep jazz house, disco influenced house, and the kind of classics featured at the legendary parties of late 70's Chicago.

We're starting off the Coloring Lessons Mix Series a little differently in the wake of our current global situation. We urge ya’ll to donate if you can during this hard time. A lot of us rely solely on gigs / nightlife related revenue to support ourselves, and with everything cancelled, we want to make sure we stick together and look out for each other in such a difficult time. Thank ya’ll for your support- stay positive, stay safe, and tap in.

Normally, we'll have the artists venmo / paypal / cash app links below, but musclecars are choosing to have donations from this mix sent over to our two brooklyn home bases', nowadays & mood ring, who are currently closed and also taking a hit (staff included) during this time. Donations here will be distributed to their staff, and keeping these community institutions alive. Any little bit helps!
