Universal Rhythms - Four Directions - Jeff Higgins 17/09/21

Mad Mats, dating back his famous Raw Fusion Parties, is definitely one of the best "Club Jazz" DJ's in the World even if most of the people know him as a great House Dj with amazing Hip Hop Skills!

He has done for "My Favorite Things" a great mix including some digital only and unreleased tracks like this killer Incognito Remix by MAW and this hard to find, CD Only, Billy Foster’s Samba tune !

Mats has selected too some rare gems, which remember he was a very serious digger and records collector during the 80’s and 90’s like the Killer Britfunk "Final Approach" by ICQ !

Some Future classics also featured by Mats and myself like the EWF’s Cover "Can’t hide love" by Mishcael Stephenson and one of the best Jazz record of the year by Emma-Jean Thackray. 

Enjoy and don’t forget we can dance on jazz !

MY FAVORITE THINGS — Show #37 w/ Mad Mats (Hosted by Psycut)

Saturday afternoon raw recording of a bunch of new records... no plan, just hit record and see what happens.

Recorded through a beautiful Condesa Lucia rotary.. love the way this mixer sums and sounds, thick, warm & wide. Recorded at 96k / 24bit for extra headroom and bounced with minimal mixdown.

Music from Vakula, Ron Trent, Dego, Moodymann, Lady Alma, Karizma, Theo Parrish, Paul Johnson etc...

Raw House Vinyl Selections

UK producer and musician Hemai put together a cracking mix for us, celebrating the release of his new album for Tru Thoughts.

According to @hemai, “It is a collection of songs which have a place embedded in my heart, all from or inspired by Latin rhythms, dance sequences or low frequency providers. Past and present.”

‘Strange Beauty’ is the debut album from producer and multi-instrumentalist Louie Hemus AKA Hemai. A collection of stories of the love, spirit and balance of the universe, the hotly tipped 22-year-old experiments with the idea of movement and the present, bringing together some of his favourite sounds from around the world and melding them with his UK roots.

Tracklist

MIMS Guest Mix: HEMAI (UK / Tru Thoughts)

** Original upload from 2013 ** 

It’s quite an honour to get an exclusive mix from an artist who you’ve been buying his records for 10+ years. Marc Mac of 4Hero fame (founded with Dego) and tons of other projects like Visioneers, Nu Era has been one of the most influential forces in all sorts of cutting edge British music; from Jungle, Broken Beat to Downtempo.

Marc always shares tons of absolute treasures on twitter (@MarcMac4Hero) so we asked him to make us a mix as part of our amazing Forgotten Treasures. He dug deep for this one and delivered a fantastic mix which he affectionately calls “Weird & Wonders”

Essential Listening!

MIMS Guest Mix: MARC MAC (4 Hero, Visioneers, Hipology / UK)

Hi Everybody. I'm very happy to start a new year to share "My Favorite" Jazz discoveries with you. For the first show of 2022, I invited the most talented, tasteful and elegant DJ from Barcelona : Virginie. For MIMS she recorded a fantastic mix, a special Broken beat session with killer tracks from 1998 to 2021.

As usual I put together a selection of some recent Future Jazz Classics including the brand new Kerbside Collection, Robert Glasper, Jimi Tenor and Kabukabu, Alex Fisher and the nice collaboration between Jazzanova, DJ Amir and the legendary Strata Records imprint.

Enjoy and take care!

Aroop Roy guest mix for  Musica Macondo on Jazz FM

You'd think i'd celebrate the 100th edition of the monthly-ish show I started many years ago by making a big fuss about it... and I must admit I did overthink it for a little while. Lord knows I love all kinds of musical challenges and ideas, they're what keep me going. 

But actually wouldn't celebrating the 100th edition be even better if I just focused on what the inspiration behind show #1 was: simply to play recent discoveries (both new and old) that I'm excited to share with an audience -- namely, YOU!

Oh but one piece of exciting news for show #100. I have started a new radio residency with the fine folks from Brussels' KIOSK RADIO! That just might be the thing I needed to get back on a consistent pace. 

100 shows in, I still love sharing these musical treasures with you.

Wishing you all a lovely day!
