DJ WIZ - NAYUNO Mix on Couleur 3 (2021)

If you've followed me from my My Space days, you MIGHT remember this one (lol). This actually may have been the first time I used the term "Jazzy Tofu" on a track I did, so I'm guessing this was done around the mid-2000s (as I didn't come up with the term until 2004 lol). I always liked this song from his "The Bootleg, vol. 1" CD and I was looking for ways to play it in my sets. So, I decided to put a nice li'l downtempo shuffle on it and VOILA! I was able to let Frank hear it once and he liked it enough for me to remix another track of his called "Groovin'". Hopefully we'll be working together again for the "More Favorites" project as well. Keep your fingers crossed...

Today we are announcing the first compilation that we are putting together with artists we’re close to or a part of the movement.  For 10 years our focus has always been to provide the best and a solid ground for artists to put out their music – we are now trying a new approach and putting our name on a release to showcase our favorite producers in a collection of tracks carefully picked by the staff.

The vibe in the release is a flight mode collection of tracks before a night out or just cruising in the car on a sunny day or evening. A moment you could have before all this technology came to life was going to your friends house not knowing what to expect and i think this could describe the project pretty well. 

The focus has always been beats that vary in around 70 to 90 bpm but here we are seeing a boost in the tempo and i truly hope all of the listeners will appreciate the tracks we’ve added, the producers were introduced to the idea i mentioned above and i let them fully experiment with a style and not limit them in terms of creation.

For each of these projects in the future our aim will also be to showcase photographers, illustrators or painters to bring out and show light on people we appreciate in this scene. For this project i wanted someone i know that spends his weekends around the streets of Los Angeles taking shots of some of the most beautiful cars & crews around the area. 

The House Blends compilation can now be found on all streaming services – To get directed please press here and select the one you favor.  Make sure all artists included in the compilation for their journey.

This is the first project we are putting out under the label name on the catalog and i couldn’t be more honored for the artists that wanted to join. Thank you to everyone that’s showing support and spreading the word about this one. Already excited to cook up more projects like this!

Breaking the record for having the longest running time of recording an interview — 3.5 hours! Two of Aswad's favourite people, Hair Kid and Q.I who are behind the amazing modern funk duo from Japan — Milk Talk. Their first ever interview which goes over and beyond! Over the last few years, Milk Talk have been consistently releasing incredible modern funk, synth / city pop music. On the show they go to great lengths to discuss about their chemistry and collaboration. We go behind the scenes to discuss how their records are put together, and talk about their recent tour in Tokyo. That’s just the tip of the iceberg, as there is plenty more uncovered. And knowing how much we recorded, let’s just say this is part 1 of their feature 😊
