I’ve not recorded a mix in a while, instead taking time to focus on and process the current worldwide protests for necessary change and how I can help. This mix and all of my mixes are 95% black musicians and 100% black music, music which has essentially shaped my existence. I’m sure a lot of […]
With a lot of the world still in lockdown and most of us having a mild existential crisis here is a mix of Island Soul, Old Soca and Reggae to hopefully cheer you up! With some classics from the Caribbean and a few Lovers Rock tunes form this colder and less colourful island. Probably best […]
Earlier this year in June I spent a very enjoyable evening with Cam H in a back room of a small whisky bar in Toronto playing records and getting real loose. We played a whole load of Modern Soul, Boogie, Lovers Rock, and Street Soul as you’d expect, also a few treats from further afield. […]

Once again me and the Big DP got together and recorded a joyful evening of music. This time we got worldly, 3 hours of no western music. Staring in Japan we went all over Africa to Brazil, Columbia, Barbados, Trinidad, The Virgin Islands, Eastern Europe and more. Some classics some rare maybe some questionable, it […]
