Andy Peek - Record Store Day Review

Good Morning sports fans,

and welcome to another Monday morning...

Fresh off the back of another successful weekend, with 420 day on Saturday along with my housemates 30th, Record Store Day and the first BBQ of the season - a rad time was had by all. On top of that throw in a fresh new mixtape from me (more on that soon) and getting offered a new job, one could say it was a weekend to remember. Maybe that lucky bus ticket no.21 in my wallet is working it's magic... 

And so on to the business end of the blog, and today I've got another little number from Manchester's Andy Peek (C'mon Feet, Go Dumb!, Surround Yo' Sound Show). And This month he's done a Record Store Day Review spanning Soul, Disco, Funk & Rock. It's got a bit of Bowie, Dr John, Lee 'Scratch' Perry & The Orb as well as exclusives from Grizzly Bear and Sly and the Family Stone. More podcast than mixtape this one but hey-ho, I write the rules, so I can break them.

Until next time...

Boca 45 -Live at Thirsty Ear Jukebox 45s 06/04/13

Here is the first 90 mins of Boca 45's gig at The Harley for last Saturday's Thirsty Ear Jukebox 45s night. It's a tasty selection of funky 7"s to get those toes tapping this Tuesday morn. Slick flyer art by Mister Hope, too. 

"...probably 5 pints in, about to get onto The Makers Mark - let me know what you think"

DJ COOLHANDLUKE - bangin in the boomboxery Vol. 2

Roller Disco five-o

Back once again with another slice of crispy funk, CoolHandLuke hits us up with this groovy little number. Bangin in my boomboxery Vol. 2 continues the trend of the first mixtape (get it HERE) in serving up full-fat funk breaks over the course of an hour to feed the boogie within. Just what I was looking for on this grey, misty Tuesday morn in Steel City. You'll want to peep this immediately.

Nerd Styles

\
An absolute masterclass in mixing today. Founding member of The Scratch Perverts, Vinyl collector and rad turntablist : Mr Thing. His Nerd is Bond mix tape is a slick blend of his favourite breaks and samples from Hip-Hop, scratched up into a tidy little hourish long mp3. This is defiantly a contender for Mix of the Year and has pretty much been on constant repeat in the lab. No file to stream this time; straight to download - but I assure you it'll be worth it.
