I could write an entire enclyopedia on how highly influential the late, great  legendary vibraphonist, composer and producer Roy Ayers really was. 
This man is responsible for Neo-Soul, is massively regarded in Hip-Hop and sampled by pretty much every Producer but his influence also spread to Acid Jazz, House and even Liquid Drum and Bass.

In short, I'll let this tribute mix say it all.
Enjoy


RIP Roy Ayers

Forever grateful

It's time to take a trip back to 20 or so years ago where quality underground Hip-Hop was booming and mad diverse, I feel that everything on this mix could have been released yesterday, man we had it better than we thought in 2005, salute to every artist and producer featured here.

Big ups to King Bobby Craves from Certain Ones for the ill artwork.

Jazzy's Tribute Mixes to DJ Mu Part 1:

This still stings but this is how I approached this first tribute mix to the mighty Mu...I compiled and mixed tracks I knew he loved as well as some works he remixed or was associated with from the perspective that he was listening to me on radio and you will notice that this tribute mix is diverse...because that's exactly what the great Man was. 

Losing Mu has been truly devastating to me. He was a mentor, a close Friend and we had a special bond right up until the last time I saw him, which was sadly at Smiley's farewell, but the beauty of that time was that he got to meet my daughter, and we hugged each other. Mu was always special to me and I have a lot of stories and so many fond memories. I hope that this first tribute mix speaks about how much he meant to me.

Until the next one...

OZZY OSBOURNE - Tribute Mix °

This one is for all the unforgettable nights spent high above Wenceslas Square.

Here is almost an hour-long sonic tribute to the legendary Duplex Prague, capturing the energy and atmosphere of its iconic dance floor. This mix is a journey through the driving grooves and deep basslines that define the club's sound, moving from infectious tech house and hypnotic deep tech into heavy-hitting bass house anthems.

I've packed this set with peak-time tracks from artists who would feel right at home on the Duplex rooftop, including heaters from Don Diablo, Discip, Max Styler, and many more.

If this mix gets you moving or brings back great memories, please give it a like & repost! Your support means the world.

Duplex special

She danced with her shadow until the vinyl cracked.  
No one knew that final spin was a farewell.

🕯️ "2:59 AM" is a nocturnal mix inspired by the voice, soul and sorrow of Amy Winehouse. A blend of cloud rap, soul jazz and poetic storytelling, wrapped in smoky elegance and late-night despair.

💌 From unsent letters to kisses in cellophane, each track echoes a secret never spoken.  
Saxophones mourn. Pianos confess. Time never moves past 2:59 AM.

"Inspired by a voice that never said goodbye."

🎧 Tracklist:
00:00 2_59 AM  
02:22 Letters to NO One  
07:12 Kisses Wrapped in Cellophane  
09:33 Bolero for Her Hatred  
12:32 The Cost of Laughter

For those who still listen to ghosts.

🎧 The New Of The Tower
🎭 Musical Style & Artistic Evolution
🚀 Avant-Garde Dance Music Without Borders
The New Of The Tower is an independent, self-taught project that fearlessly pushes the limits of dance music with a unique fusion of genres. Officially described as a mix of dark techno, tech-house, electro, and experimental pop, it also incorporates elements of trap, punk, and even classical music.

In practice, each track oscillates between club anthems and conceptual sonic experiences. For instance, “Velvet Guillotine” (2025) is a hypnotic techno hymn built on heavy percussion and distorted vocals—a true “surreal sonic ritual” under neon lights.

The sound is always matched by a cinematic, underground aesthetic: strobe lights, cyberpunk visuals, and immersive atmospheres define every release.

🌍 Eclectic Influences & Genre Alchemy
The New Of The Tower draws from a wide range of sonic traditions:

🏴‍☠️ Dark techno and industrial groove infused with gothic textures and anarchic punk (e.g., “BRUTAL!!” — a chaotic journey of distortion and rebellion).

🌍 Afro-Tech House meets rock guitars à la AC/DC in “Love Letters” (124–126 BPM).

👺 “Masquerade of Bass” blends melodic techno, dark psytrance, and retro synth-pop.

💃 Spanish-language tracks like “Marionetas” and “Vidas Rotas” fuse flamenco sorrow with trap beats and deep 808s.

🎷 “2:59 AM” evokes Amy Winehouse-inspired jazzy cloud-rap, while “She Danced Through Storms” travels through deep house and jazz fusion with a cinematic touch.

🧊 “Still Echoing” merges melodic trance with nostalgic 80s synth-pop.

🧬 Each track is a bold cross-genre experiment: from industrial club bangers to dark electronic ballads, always rich in texture and emotion.

🎛️ Sonic Palette: Instruments & Effects
🎹 Synths & Melodies

Analog pads & leads (often vocoder-enhanced) create retrofuturistic atmospheres.

Punk-style distorted guitars and 80s synthwave textures bring cinematic depth.

🥁 Percussion & Rhythms

Hard techno kicks, metallic hi-hats, tribal drums, and trap-style 808s.

Layered acoustic and electronic elements make for dynamic and precise beats.

🌀 FX & Processing

Rich in glitchy clips, VHS noise, deep delays, and reverb-soaked vocals.

Examples: “Love Letters” is drenched in lo-fi and VHS textures; “4 Malos Polvos” features glitchy ambient layers and emotional auto-tune.

🎨 Each sound is carefully crafted to contribute to a vivid, cinematic soundscape.

🎤 Vocal Treatments: A Sonic Chameleon
Vocals range from:

🎙️ Melodic singing (English & Spanish)

🔥 Punk shouting & spoken rap

🤖 Vocoded retro textures (“Still Echoing”)

💔 Melancholic auto-tuned lines (“4 Malos Polvos”)

💣 Confessional, emotionally intense deliveries

🗣️ The voice becomes another instrument of emotion, soaked in effects like reverb, delay, filters—ranging from ghostly whispers to ecstatic screams.

🌑 Emotional Climate & Storytelling
The overall emotional tone is dark, introspective, and visceral.
Themes revolve around:

💘 Passion, heartbreak, rebellion

🧠 Subconscious states & urban alienation

🕯️ Ritualistic, trance-like experiences (e.g., “Velvet Guillotine”)

🌆 Social suffering (“Marionetas”, “Vidas Rotas”)

😈 Raw eroticism & shame (“4 Malos Polvos”: “each drop is a stab disguised as a caress”)

🎞️ Romantic melancholy in cinematic settings (“2:59 AM”, “She Danced Through Storms”)

🎬 Each track unfolds like an emotional chapter, offering catharsis, vulnerability, and mystery.

📽️ Conceptual Artistry & Vision
The New Of The Tower is not just music—it's an immersive audiovisual concept.

💀 Explores themes of dystopia, poverty, guilt, rebellion

🏙️ Brutalist club visuals, cyberpunk aesthetics

🕯️ Emotional depth with non-commercial intent

🎭 “4 Malos Polvos” = a “dark confession for love sinners,” cinematic and raw

🌀 Each release = a journey through shadow and rhythm

🕺💀 Dance meets darkness—a kind of electronic film noir where each beat tells a deeper truth.

📈 Style Evolution: From EDM to Darkness
🟢 2019–2022: EDM & electro-pop beginnings (Feel EP, “You And Me” — catchy and bright)

🟡 2024: Transition into melodic techno (“Not Living Without You”)

🔴 2025–Present: Shift to dark techno, darkwave, flamenco-trap, and experimental storytelling (“Velvet Guillotine”, “Marionetas”)

🎭 From mainstream dance-pop to raw, conceptual electronic music—always evolving, always fearless.

🎼 Comparable Artists & Influences
🧩 The New Of The Tower resonates with:

🧨 Brutalismus 3000 (techno-punk dystopia)

👾 Perturbator (dark synthwave)

🌘 Mind Against / Recondite (melodic techno & melancholia)

🎤 Boy Harsher, Massive Attack (dark vocals, trip-hop moods)

🔥 Anyma (techno emotion), Latin trap/fusion for its flamenco-trap leanings

🌌 But ultimately, it defines its own world—one built from dark techno, darkwave, nu-jazz, and trap-rock fusion.
