Lexdray City Series - Volume 26 - Welcome to Leeds (Halloween Edition) - Mixed by Nightmares on Wax

DJ Platurn Boiler Room San Francisco 60 min DJ Set

An avid crate-digger, Bristol-based producer and artist Slowe naturally takes inspiration from a plethora of genres, with her DIY approach reminiscent of lo-fi beat making - delicately collaging session recordings together, and repurposing techniques akin to those of J Dilla and Madlib. The result is both nostalgic and fiercely contemporary, with sparkling Rhodes, vintage drum lines, and ethereal vocals. This special Dilla Day mix pays tribute to the producer, drummer, rapper and songwriter with a selection of Slowe’s favourite tracks; "I wanted to put together this mix in honour of one of my biggest inspirations. Featuring my favourite Jay Dee tracks, productions and samples, including songs from Erykah Badu, A Tribe Called Quest, Slum Village and more. Go on a journey of all things James Yancey with me.”

J Dilla Tribute Mix - DJ Mix by Slowe

"Todd Rundgren is an artist I discovered in my teens during the mid-’90s while thrift store shopping," says A Better Tomorrow, a producer and mastering engineer whose addiction to that DJ Premier/Pete Rock classic New York hip-hop sound has fueled his creativity and is evident in his new album, It's Diamond Dave, out now via iNSECT RECORDS.

"A Wizard, a True Star LP had me tweaking. Into a whole new level. Staggering catalog of music. What can I add to what has already been said about him. He's a genius. Pretty much could care less about stardom and remained true to his creative spirit. Todd put out records the way he heard them in his mind with such bold experimentation and no rules. From prog-rock to pop songs to psychedelic collages. He remains a creative inspiration to me. This mix is just me enjoying his records & sharing some of my fav tunes like we always do about this time, kicking back at home."

Adrian Younge 45s Guest Mix

I PUT THIS TOGETHER TO ROCK!

It's that simple.  I didn't put it together to sell to the masses.  The masses don't get M.O.P...and I like it that way.  Not that I don't want M.O.P to be successful - I just want them to stay the way they are - hardcore & underground.  Remember when being hardcore & underground was respectable?  Remember when Nas & Jay Z were "ours"?  It's easy to forget ain't it?

This is for the fans...like you & me.  Some of these are the certified bangers, some are album tracks & some are collabos you may not have heard.  I also managed to sneak in a few original joints.  Oh yeah, I did a little DJ Premier impression in the intro (give me some more tracks and an engineer?  watch out nah!!).  Anyway, nuff said...hope you get as much bang from this as I do!  Salute!

Empty Clip - The MOP Story

Empty Clip:  The M.O.P Story (as told by the hands of dj ToNy Tone)

A rural psych folk and rock selection by Hymnal (Whats The Altitude) and myself. This mix was created last year around this time to give thanks to the harvest of music that was recorded here in this country. Hymnal is the one of the deepest collectors of this genre. Remember to turn the clocks back for today is fall back sunday....

Solid Steel (24th May) Following on from last year's treatment of 'Paul's Boutique' (by DJ Food, Cheeba and Moneyshot), United States of Audio does the same with De la Soul's groundbreaking album 3 Feet High and Rising. It's not just a mix, but more like an audio documentary about an album that is also about to celebrate it's 25th anniversary. In his own words;
'Several years in the making and including around 100 tracks, this is my personal tribute to De La Soul's '3 Feet High and Rising'. Using original sample sources, album tracks, interviews and rarities, 'How High's The Water Mama' tells the story of one of hip hop's most influential albums.
When De La Soul's debut album dropped in 1989 I was ten years old. Yet, by some stroke of amazing good fortune a cassette copy of '3 Feet High and Rising' found its way into my hands thanks to my best mate's older brother (though I'm pretty sure said brother had no idea of this fact!). The music was a revelation and had a significant influence in shaping my musical tastes - in fact I can't think of any other album that has had such a profound effect on me as this one. Thus '3 Feet High and Rising' holds a special place in my musical affections. Now, some twenty-five years after its original release, it's time to pay my respect to Pos, Dove, Mase, and Prince Paul...'
