Gideön & R3 Sound System Presents: Rocksteady Against Arms Sales.

This is my contribution to the 24 hours of radio broadcast on Soho Radio in London and Radio AlHara, Palestine, fundraising drive for CAAT - Campaign Against Arms Trade:  https://caat.org.uk

Between 10th - 20th May 2021, Israel’s bombardment of the Gaza Strip has killed over 230 Palestinians, over a quarter of them children; thousands more have been injured and over 90,000 people displaced. 

The UK government regularly approves military technology and arms exports to Israel. The UK has blood on it’s hands.

Broadcasting as part of this fundraiser were The Blessed Madonna / Prosumer / Norman Jay MBE /  Seth Troxler / Midland / Eats Everything / Chip E / Alhara DJs /  Tama Sumo / Lakuti / Gideön / SecretSundaze / DJ Paulette /  Dennis Bovell / A Guy Called Gerald /  DJ Yoda / Josh Caffe / Chimpo / James Hillard / Goat Girl / Normski / Jay Carder / Big Joanie / Howie B plus many more…

STOP UK ARMS SALES TO ISRAEL NOW

Tune in for Sweet State with Marina Trench. The idea behind Sweet State is to share a moment with Marina in her studio, as a friend, a member of her family, a producer, a colleague visiting her - sitting on the sofa for a couple of hours. Home listening, danceable tracks, everything is based around the concept of «Sweetness». She invites guests to curate a selection - all on the smooth spectrum to wrap you up in this intimate comfy vibes.

FIONA - 08 Novembre 2021

A Thursday night session of Soul, Funk, Rare Groove & a few Housey bits thrown in for good measure.

Gideön & Midland B2B

Over the past 22 years I have been recording & adding to a mixtape series begun in 1998 in San Francisco. I started putting together selections from the deeper, “late night” end of my record collection that almost never made their way onto regular DJ mixtapes we were all making in the late nineties. Back in the day before Uber, all those after-hours minicab rides in London were sound tracked by African & Caribbean pirate radio stations playing the most incredible Downtempo Soul, R&B, Roots and Gospel. For me, the better the DJ, the slower BPM they would have the guts to play. And here in London even today, generally speaking, the blacker the party, the slower the music ( and inevitably, the hotter the vibes )…a simple equation really. This 33 hours worth of music features tracks from every genre and every era……the only thing they all have in common is that they would sound pretty dam good at 8am Sunday morning in the back of a minicab on Coldharbour Lane, Brixton.

Gideön - SlowJams Volume 4

Here are three 🦖🦖🦖mixtapes featuring some super-deep, bluesy and soulful Jamaican 7"s from my record collection. I started this “vintage" series back in 2007 and am long overdue making another fair few volumes since I been shopping non stop since then🕳💦⚰️. Some of the cuts are a bit scratchy and worn but personally speaking I think this adds realness and character. These are actual physical records with real histories, some of them 40 years old.....some of these tunes have gathered their sonic patina from some REAL 🔥🐗parties ....eat your heart out Spotify-playlist-on-an-iPhone-speaker generation.💪🏼😜
