Focuz - Episode 003 (MP3)

It’s nearing the end of another month so here’s the November dosage. It’s varied mix of beats this time starting at the down-tempo end of the scale with a recent Flying Lotus remix and a new cut from King Midas Sound on Hyperdub (cheers to J for the tip-off on that one). Steadily cranking up the BPM through the 7 Samurai on German imprint, Poets Club and an older, but timeless jam by Boxcutter. I decided on a DnB rush for the finish line with a smooth number from top Californian beathead, Tyler Straub (many thanks for that, buddy. Keep up the good work!), an epic from Apex and to wind things up one of my favourite records of 2008 from London Elektricity. Hope y’all dig it

Focuz - Episode 002 (MP3)

It’s the end of the month and about time for another episode. I was feeling like a broken-beat, nu-jazz affair this time around so I dug out some more up-tempo beats - some new, some old, all slick. Enjoy...

Focuz - Episode 001 (MP3)

Focuz is a podcast mooching through the styles of hip hop, nu-jazz, funk, soul, dub, drum&bass, ambient and electro. Each mix is carefully selected from around the globe and well off the beaten track. So here’s the debut mix. To kick things off it’s an early-autumn, hip-hop, nu-jazz mash-up. The end result is a varied mix of tracks - some new, some I’ve had for a while. A laid-back mix and a low-key launch - no fuss, just good beats. Enjoy...
