Essential Mix 2017-03-11 - Gerd Janson

We've been playing for the crew at Robot Heart for close to a decade now and each experience we've had is always so memorable, mostly because of the love and appreciation we feel from the whole crew and their impeccable attention to detail, allowing us to do what we do best, play records. 

When we were invited for the inaugural season of events in Oakland, we were deeply honored. 

We hope you all enjoy this set of select deeper than deep cuts from our record bags to your ears. Long live Robot Heart!

Tiga & Fcukers celebrate their new tune SILK SCARF with an hour of power on THE LOT.

The Hardcore Storyteller reaches effortlessly into his bottomless bag of music only to find new friends waiting for him inside the bag. "Fcukers were the only choice to join me on this Classic Tiga Party Funk Workout,” he says. "Met ‘em. Loved ‘em. Called ‘em. True story — please don’t repeat to anyone.”

My one and only completed track, made in 2010 when i lived in Koreatown LA, CA on Reason. It's unmastered and definitely a work in progress. Feedback is greatly encouraged.
