Hi all, been a while eh?
Another flashback mix for you lovely people to download. This time by popular demand (ie. one of my mates lost the CD and loved it so much asked if he could get another copy ;-).
This mix was a promotional mix I did for www.astrojazz.co.uk the home of Astroboy, co-founder and resident DJ of Edinburgh's legendary Departure Lounge night at The Caves. Possibly one of Edinburgh's most consistently good nights for all things broken, dub, jazzy and all round worldwide vibes. For more info and cheap tickets to what will no doubt be NYE party of the year in Edinburgh go to www.departurelounge.me.uk They've hosted nights with such varied quality acts such as Candi Staton, Jazztronik, Azymuth, Gilles Peterson, Eska Mtungwazi, Bansuri, Marly Marl, Patrick Forge, Mark De Clive-Lowe, Quantic Soul Orchestra, Recloose, The Bamboos, Kokolo, Platinum Pied Pipers, Ed Motta, Mad Mats, Dom Servini, Spiritual South, Benji B, Teddy Rok, Zero dB, Ty, Paul Murphy, Part Time Heroes, New Mastersounds, Lubi Jovanovic, Broke'n'English, DJ Nuts, Belleruche, Diesler, Nostalgia 77, Russ Dewbury, Mr Scruff, Roy Ayers, Antibalas...and many more.
The description on said website is as follows...
"Local head Gary Mallett provides the vibes here. Look out for him at various bars and clubs in Edinburgh. An up-and-coming decksmith."
Up and Coming Decksmith... I can handle that!
Expect jazz, soul, funk, hip hop, house, broken beat, and a very early airing of a Mark Ronson cover courtesy of a promo copy I got. Look at him now!
Hope you like it. I'll lay off the retro "Tax Return" mixes and put up a brand new episode of Sound Investments as a Christmas present to you all in good time.
