T&T - DFA dance party at MoMA (MP3)
T&T (Tim Sweeney & Tim Goldsworthy) team up on this set for a sweet slice of fresh cake. And the whole thing starts out with that Hercules & Love Affair track that still gets dance floors going wild. Get ready for tons of dancefloor fodder that will be sure to get things moving. Also if you are feeling the DFA sound - be certain to peep the Source Site on Moma.org as they've got 3 other sets from other DFA label folks (Juan Maclean, Holy Ghost!, Justin Miller & Jacques Renault).

Ben Mono- Lime Sorbet Mix (MP3)
Florida's Citrona label has been running an incredible mix show by Germany's Quincy Jointz. Past guests include Bigga Bush, Rephrase and others. This show comes at you from Compost's Ben Mono and with a new album coming soon this should give Mono fans a good sneak peek at what the album will be like. A good dash of 80's soul vibe combined with quality modern soul/R&B vocals and funky ass breakbeats smooshed together.
Frequento - Bouncing Floor Bomb (MP3)
There is that "oh shit" moment when a live grenade comes skittering across the floor and eases to a halt. You are frozen in your steps - though your head is screaming "GET OUT!". That deer in headlights moment is exactly what I went thru with this Frequento mix. He dropped a dime to me about his mixes and I clicked in - this blend starts off on a great soulful vibe but then a shiny grenade came sliding into frame when that killer guitar/synth lick from "Der Kommisar" drops. Oh shit! Is he gonna take it sideways like that? And even in the face of eminent destruction you cannot help but listen and shake. If you are starving for a soulful/hip-hop/funk nugget this is the mix for you. Word to Frequento for dropping bombs like this! And word to the whole Leipzig/Sunset Soul crew for keeping the downbeat vibe alive!
Grant Phabao & Djouls - Latin Madness (MP3)
When you see a mix labelled as Afro-Latin there are only two possibilites - snooze-core, massage parlor background noise or killer latin icing on top of a afro-beat funk cake. Lucky for us the latter is the case with this super-cool mix. It's like the Latin Kings put out a hit on my ass! The Paris Djs step out with another killer selection, and be certain to click thru to the source for some sweet album art made up by Djouls.
Genres: broken beat, funk, jazz, latin

Citizen Kane Live in the Mix (MP3)
When I hear about a DJ selecting unheard Disco gems and roping them together I do not really have high hopes. I mean the whole disco universe of music is a finite thing. How deep can you really dig? Well Citizen Kane proves all theories wrong with this killer mix of unheard gems blended with familiar grooves. And as a standout in the middle of the mix there is a killer disco groove that obviously influenced JayDee's "Plastic Dreams". Sweet boogie gold.
Genres: disco, funk, house, rare grooves
Free Spankrock - Rick Rubin Download! (HTML)
The lovely folks over at Big Dada are serving up a free slice of SpankRo MP3. Get em while their hot! This Rick Rubin track was the lead in cut on the Spankrock Money Studies Mix CD that basically put them on Blast to start with. I would say it is the least dirty track in the Spankrizzo rapertoire. (* aside from the new instrumental version of the YoYoYoYoYo album)
