Flowriders is the band of producer and keys player Vincent Helbers. He started his career performing, writing and recording contemporary acoustic jazz, and now combines this with hip hop, broken beat and electronics. Fat grooves, tricky arrangements and 'jazz-wise' soloing make the band sound both raw and sophisticated. Flowriders are a primarily live band unlike almost all other acts within this area of music.
RUEDY features vocalists Nia Saw, Spoonface and regular collaborator Colonel Red, not to mention live drum contribution from Richard Spaven who has worked with Marc de Clive Lowe, 4hero, TY, Guru and many others. The sound on RUEDY is cosmic, twisted hip-hop-bruk-soul laced with soulful vocals all done in a 'future manner'. A must for fans of 4Hero, Jill Scott, Bugz In The Attic and Gilles Peterson.
A 12" EP is also available featuring the CO-OP smash hit Russelology, two vinyl-only tracks, a Marc de Clive Lowe remix plus an unreleased bonus track.

The One-Tet (Groove Chronicles Broken Step Refix)

Next up in the Mr Bongo Record Club mix series we invited Norwich-based DJ collective and party purveyors Soul Stew to give us a taste of what they're all about. Firmly rooted in the city's scene for over 9 years, they've been throwing some of the finest parties Norwich has to offer. Alongside championing local talent they’ve also hosted a real range of some of the top international selectors from far and wide, including Sassy J, Volcov, Mark Grusane, Sadar Bahar, Floating Points, Ash Lauryn and Ge-ology to name only a handful.&nbsp;

As a DJ duo Bill and Jack are a real joy to see behind the decks. Effortless blends of unforgiving, unquantized disco, boogie, house, techno and beyond. Their style, skill and passion led to them being signed to Sounds Familiar earlier this year and has seen them play at Fabric, KOKO, Pickle Factory, We Out Here, Lost Village, Field Maneuvers and many more great dancefloors.

To accompany the mix we caught up with Bill and Jack to get an insight into Soul Stew from the duo themselves. Read the interview here - https://www.mrbongo.com/blogs/news/mr-bongo-record-club-soul-stew

The Night Feeling: City Lights

To coincide with our Mr Bongo x Higo Beat Japan tour featuring DJ Nature we are shining a light on some of the incredible DJs Japan has to offer.

DJ KAWASAKI has been a key figure in Japan’s scene since the early 2000’s. With releases on Nite Grooves, Columbia, Especial and his own Kawasaki Records, he’s got an illustrious back catalogue as a producer and has toured around the globe as a DJ. He holds the record for having eight songs reach No.1 in the iTunes Dance chart in Japan. MAGNETiC is the disco and jazz event he runs with Shacho from Soil & ”Pimp” Sessions at The Room Shibuya, Tokyo. 

His mix is a showcase of flavours he’s been feeling recently, blending disco, jazz funk, house, broken beat and beyond, proving why he has been such a force for the past 20 years. In his own words, “I wanted to share my musical world through tracks I usually play, chosen based on my current vibe. I also included a preview of my upcoming release and tried to balance new and older tunes. Favorites include ‘Kowree Sambazzi’ by Kyoto Jazz Massive and Shuya Okino’s ‘Thank You’ (Danny Krivit 7” Edit). You can also hear my new tune ‘Sunshine Madness’ with Chien Chien Lu!”

Mr Bongo Record Club Guest Mix - DJ KAWASAKI

These are some of my favorite record purchases this past year - some are more expensive that I happened across at a flea market or online, while others were unknown to me, fortunate pick-ups from the Salvation Army milkcrates or a random jazz bin in from a store in central Cali. All have importance to me in different ways and are beautiful pieces of music. Stay safe out there as we end the year and move into the next! Go Birds, F--- ICE, Free Pal****** !! 

Tracklist: Pat Pace Trio, Oscar Peterson, Herb Drury Trio, Peter Dutchin, Spanky Wilson, Liana Pascalini, Rene Costy, Ahmad Jamal Trio, Abdullah Ibrahim
