This is the first Shambhala mix I have ever done after all the years I have played this amazing Festival. Every time I have performed I've come away with countless memories & great moments. This year was exceptional, with DJ Premier, Jazzy Jeff, Skratch Bastid, The Gaff, Chali 2na & Cut Chemist, A.Skillz, Slynk, Fort Knox 5, Q Dup on a Saturday night. I have created the mix exactly how it was performed as  it was not recorded live. Big thanks to Rich E Rich for having me once again, I truly had the most incredible weekend. I hope you guys enjoy this mix as much as I had performing it !

Leo NXT - Promo Mix 2025

I wanted to share a set from an intimate club environment to switch things up so here's a recording from the Waverley in Cumberland BC October 2024. I had a blast playing everything from funk and breaks classics including lots of my own edits and remixes all the way through to DNB bangers. I hope you enjoy the journey!

A.Skillz - Live from the Waverley

WeFunkRadio is an absolute staple for Funk, Soul, Rare Groove, Hip Hop & Breaks. It was a pleasure to be asked to put a DJ Mix together for them.

Make sure you check them out here: https://www.wefunkradio.com/

"Jimi Needles goes for a late night joyride with UK flavor by Meduulla and Nightmares on Wax, handy reworks by Krafty Kuts and Duncan Gerow, and hazy gems from Thundercat and Astrological. Plus a raw rap cipher helmed by Ciphurphace, Jan Hammer's hallucinogenic "Don't You Know" and a call from the motherland on Afrocali's "The Beautiful Ones".
