100+ tracks by De La Soul in the mix..

This mix was originally made to celebrate the reissues of De La’s back-cat, and broadcast on BBC 6 Music a month ahead of the March 3rd release date.

Just over a week after this mix was broadcast, Dave, aka Trugoy the Dove, aka Plug Two, tragically passed away. A few weeks before release. 

The first half of this is the original 40-minute version of the broadcast mix.
A 27-minute edit was broadcast Saturday 4th Feb 2023, for the Block Party mix on The Huey Show.

The second half is a bonus 40-minute selection of 15 more faves - tracks that I feel needed time to breath; some that felt a bit dark for Saturday morning radio, and a few where Dave’s bars hit a little more poignantly now. A bittersweet time. 

Recorded Saturday 4th March 2023, the day after De La day.

Salutes to Posdnuos, Maseo, Prince Paul & the Native Tongues.
Rest in power, Dave.

De La Soul forever.
Stay Plug Tunin’.

Dedicated to Dave Jolicoeur & Don Newkirk.

Mix curated & produced by Bobby Bignell aka DJ BobaFatt, April 2025.

Native Tongues Block Party | BBC 6 Music

I was invited back to Hospitality On The Beach out in Croatia last week, where I did four sets, on the beach and in Wabi Sabi, once again providing some chilled alternative sounds alongside the line-up of D&B heavyweights.

I've been lucky to play festivals every year at The Garden in Tisno since 2012 (bar the pandemic years, 2020-2022), so this was my 10th time out there (!), and has become very much a home from home for me. 

Keeping with the annual tradition, this one revisits a selection of music I played over my week in Croatia.
70 tracks in the mix over two & a half hours, mixed in one-take; no messin'.

I hope this 180 minutes of hip hop, jazz, reggae, soul, r&b, boogie, bruk, garage, grime & jungle reflects the alternative side of the festival a bit; warming up the ravers in the baking Balkan sunshine.

Love once again to Chris Goss & the Hospital Records team for the invite, and for all their hard work putting this 7-day event together. A labour of love for real. Big up all the performers and the dancers (special shout to the House of Dinosaur crew, and my compadres Dom Servini & Kid Hops).

'Til the next one, hvala! x

BobaFatt's Beach Beats | Hospitality on the Beach 2025

Presenting the first of three choice chunks of our Kings Day DJ set in Amsterdam this year. (Kings Day, if you don't know, is a national holiday in NL during which the whole place turns decidedly orange, drinks a whole lot of beer and goes nuts.) 

For the last few years, as part of the festivities, we've been hosting a little secret location sound system party during which we can cut loose and play an extended DJ set covering a whole bunch of bases - sometimes with friends guesting, sometimes (like this year) flying solo for the whole day, dropping as many solid personal favourites as we can along the way, natuurlijk.... 

So here's the first chunk, from early in the day, warming things up with a soulful, skanking, boom-bapping selection of edits, remixes, favourites and classics - hope you enjoy!

Download will pop up in a couple of weeks on the mailing list: https://kleptones.com/pages/contact.html

Or you can get it right now (along with Part 2 & 3 of this mix) if you become one of our awesome support team - Join up on Patreon or Liberapay, and become one of the folks that always gets everything (and more) way before anyone else...
