Bixel Boys gettin’ all freakynaughty with the baseline. Robin Thicke keepin’ it so soulful and sexy. Basically this shit just…gets…offffff. Don’t care who you are, cause everyone is on the dancefloor gettin’ down. Deep down. You won’t regret it. Being bad feels good.
The young frenchman, who goes by the name Matt Fax (among others), has put together a pretty spectacular mix for Silk Music‘s Arrival Showcase with British duo The Blizzard on guest mix duties. I listened to this after work yesterday and was fully lost in the music the entire time. Like I said, watch out for this young man this summer. Big things are coming. He even announced the start of an album which is to showcase all angles of his musical self, tweeting that he has been taking risks and trying out new styles. Tommy likey.
Tracklist follows…
Chookie = summertime.
So powerful. No idea how there hasn’t been more hype behind this collaboration. I would absolutely melt if I heard this live.
Lana Del Ray has one of those timeless voices that surrounds you physically and penetrates you on those deeper levels. This track, “Dark Paradise” is one of my personal favorites of hers and this version by Parov Stelar is just fabulous.
“Every time I close my eyes, it’s like a dark paradise. No one compares to you, but there’s no you except in my dreams tonight.”
Dcup, head of the newly formed label, Chookie Music, gives us yet another steller mix full of nu disco, old school grooves, deep house vibes, and a bit of dat g house Ralphy J has been on lately. Gotta say…shit’s fraiche. Had a chance to test out some this past week opening for the Stafford Brothers at Cielo in NYC. It went quite well. Especially Dcup’s new remix of KLP. Pure feugo. Anyways, enjoy this one. Nothing but love.

Louis La Roche is the man. These mixtapes have been so ill. Guy truly has the Midas touch. If you missed 1-4 follow this link and jam out from the beginning of it all. Each mix is about 15 minutes and is full of exclusive edits, remixes, bootlegs, etc. all done by the man himself to make it feel like your on a journey through sound (much like Flight Facilities did with their Decades mixes).
