Great back to back to back DJ session on the @dubsmugglers soundsystem at this year's @dimensionsfestival in Croatia, alongside @floatingpoints, Tom Smith from the ace Cosmic Slop night in Leeds, ( https://www.facebook.com/groups/211633616863/ ) all held together by the mighty MC Kwasi. We all played vinyl, one or two tunes each for most of the session, with a slightly longer set each towards the end.

Massive thanks to everyone involved!

For 30 years, the six-member DJ and production collective, Jazzanova, has been highly influential, artfully bridging the worlds of jazz, soul, and world into a fusion of modern sounds that have delighted ears and feet through the years. 

My first introduction was listening to “Coffee Talk,” a downtempo tune whose debut on Los Angeles radio station KCRW was the start of a music trajectory that would see the group through many top-notch remixes, several studio albums, a number of special music projects, and, now, coming full circle with a live version of its 2001 debut, “In Between.” “In Between Revisited” finds Jazzanova in a live session, with an intimate audience, surfacing ack to the tunes from its 2001 album, but giving it an updated flair. 

To celebrate “IN Between Revisited,” I did an early July all-vinyl set at Jan’s Vinyl Bar in San Luis Obispo, where the owners are fans too and where I spin about 1-2 times monthly. It was an honor to do so, and so great to pull out vinyl from my radio show days, when the music was fresh. It stands up very well today.

With that, I hope you enjoy the mix that I have for you: two hours of Jazzanova, along with friends, from vocalists to producers remixing Jazzanova. There was only so much that two hours could fit in, but here it is. 

I hope you enjoy it; do share it with your friends and others.

Celebrating the 75th birthday of Mr Roy Ayers with this mix, showcasing some of my favourite tracks from his slightly lesser known material… Well, I mean compared to tracks like Everybody 
Loves The Sunshine, Searching, We Live In Brooklyn, Running Away, Love Will Bring Us Back Together…

I also hear new stuff that I hadn’t noticed before when I listen to his music - the track with Jack Wilson that opens the mix up is so heavy and cosmic for its time, and I’d forgotten about the track with Wayne Henderson! There are so many great albums out there including the 2 Virgin Ubiquities BBE put out... We could devote a whole week of radio programmes to Roy, his archive is so large… 

He is the key to all things between jazz, soul, disco and hip hop…. Thank you roy for all the music...

Datant de 2001, Amélie Poulain montre Paris sous son meilleur jour. Audrey Toutou incarne à la perfection cette jeune fille solitaire à l'imagination débordante.
Amélie Poulain aime faire des ricochets sur le canal Saint-Martin. Malheureusement, Audrey Tautou, elle, en est incapable. Les images des cailloux du film sont donc des images de synthèse.
Le café dans lequel travaille Amélie Poulain existe bel et bien. Jean-Pierre Jeunet le fréquentait avant de le sélectionner comme lieu de tournage. Depuis, le Café des 2 Moulins est devenu un lieu mythique et incontournable, pour tous les fans du film qui visitent Paris.

Si la mixtape vous a plu, n'hésitez pas à la liker ♥ et à la repost ↻

3 days of DJ sets in a row at the legendary Casper Bar in Budva's old town (Montenegro) in August 2020, the place for good taste, music and vibes in southern Europe, under the open sky and under a pine tree. Here is the shot of day 2, the Saturday night, relaxed soulful and slow disco vibes, definitely something to lift the mood :) Enjoy.
