From DJ Psycut:

"I first met the founder of our favorite website back in 2013 when I booked him in Paris for his very first “Club Jazz” gig for an incredible edition of the Jazz Attitudes night. From that meeting was born our collaboration on MIMS as well as gigs where we share the same love and curiosity for music.

True to his trademark, Lexis put together a mix sharing many different tastes and influences, this time diving into 90’s jazz-nujazz-triphop treasures like The Sonic Family, Peshay and Up, Bustle & Out. The middle sees a couple jazzy older gems like South Africa’s Teaspoon Ndelu and the calypso Jazz of Rupert Clemendore. He closes out his mix with a few of his favorite Broken Beat x Jazz revisions like Art Blakey revisited by EVM 128 and Carlos Garett revised by Kyoto Jazz Massive and Moonstarr. That and a few more joints!"

The sixth installment of trumpeter/arranger/producer/bandleader Todd Simon’s #JazzOn45 series focuses on some classics found within the genre. For the return of Wax Poetics, Todd has put together some of the more well-known gems found on 7-inch vinyl. Thanks to artists such as Kamasi Washington and Sons of Kemet, we have seen a newly found resurgence of this incredibly expressive and beautiful art form worldwide. Whether you are fairly new to digging into Jazz, or well-versed in it, you will enjoy listening to these selections at 45 rpm. Note that certain selections from this include both sides edited together.

Summer Song

My favorite pianist Ahmad Jamal passed away at the age of 92 yesterday (16-4-23). Ahmad is considered as one one of the most influential jazz musicians of all-time. His first album came out in 1955 and in 2017 he released the magnificent album Marseille. In this mix I have put my favorite tracks by him including  Poinciana, The Awakening, Patterns, Swahililand, Waves, the funky track Boatride, a great version of Feeling Good, ending with Marseille and much more. Ahmad will be missed!

Been meaning to do a mix of European jazz mix for a while and thought I'd have a crack at making one featuring a track from each of the nations at Euro 2024 to keep myself amused between games.

Tracklist is below, think/hope I got it all right.

Happy birthday Charles Stepney! Here is a little mix we did back in 2007 which we think might give a little insight in the enormous creative output of the genius behind Minnie Ripperton / The Dells / Earth, Wind & Fire / Rotary Connection and many more.

Don't know about anyone else but I'm getting more disillusioned with SoundCloud with every change they make. The new algorithm and its 'recommendations' ignore mixes and any tracks over 10 mins, they've removed the New & Hot charts and replaced them with irrelevant crap like "Events near you", and this new UI has me searching for a way to revert it.
