Five Mixes Are Better Than One: Part III

I completely forgot I was doing these and I’m not even sure what part were on. Pretty sure it’s Part 3, so here goes. I recently bought a new external hard drive so I can now download mixes to my hearts content without worrying about filling my laptop up. First up is a new 90 minute mixtape titled ‘China Food’ by New York babe Maluca, mixed by Paul Devro, that’s absolutely free and is also nicely cut up so you can skip between tracks in the mix on the fly; like an actual CD! My mind is blown! Apparently the mixtape is a big biographical journey in music form of her musical influences and her own music. I only knew three songs from the mix and was introduced to about another hundred. Well 17 to be exact, but when any mix is filled with lots of stuff I haven’t heard of before I’m all ears.

I sadly never attended an Optimo party even though it was on my list of things to do before I die. Sadly that might be something I may never get to scratch off the list. Hopefully they might do a ‘Return of Optimo’ in like twenty years or something. Anyway, while I wait for that day to arrive  JD Twitch and JG Wilkes, of Optimo party fame, recently recorded a massive 70 minute acid set as part of their Radio Magnetic podcast, filled with lots of 303 goodness. Featuring tracks from 1987 – 2010, from cities such as Chicago, Detroit, Tokyo, Edinburgh, Ghent, Paris, Toronto, London and many more this is a mix I highly recommend checking out.

A podcast which I have been following for God knows how long is Beats In Space. They never fail to put a smile on my face and have introduced me to heaps loads of new artists and music. Beats In Space hits radio podcast number 533 roping in Rory Phillips and Juan Maclean for the guest mixes. This mix led me onto discovering the fantastic tune that is Beam Me Up by Midnight Magic. If you haven’t heard it, go check it out now before the sun goes out! Theres new Shit Robot in there too! Summer, please don’t go! I still need to listen to this mix for another month or two..

Night Slugs to win label of the year? No doubt. They’ve safely released quality after quality after quality and it looks like they have no attention of stopping. Their white label releases have also never left my turntable especially the new Jam City one. They also introduced me to the 24 year old producer going under the name of Girl Unit. Possibly one of their biggest releases to date, I.R.L. was absolutely hammered by everyone and is easily in my top ten tracks of the year. He’s recently done a new mix for XLR8R which is filled with loads of unreleased dubplates, including new Nguzunguzu. He’s about to embark on a US Tour, so for all you guys on that side of the world be sure to check him out.

Last and not least, here’s a mixtape I’ll again only probably be able to play for another seven days or so before the sun goes away and I go into hibernation. (Insert sad face here). While I hibernate I will most likely dream of dancing on a beach to this 49 minute mix with Kaya Scodelario and Pixie Lott. Yes, I did just put a Round Table Knights mix in the same sentence as Kaya and Pixie; it’s that good.
