Another week, another ‘diet. This week we’ve got the familiar slow climb out of downtempo hip hop beats, funk and soul, then up through some trap sounds before dancing it up towards the end. Don’t sleep on Oz’ Ta-Ku either, his Boiler Room set is pretty killer. Oh, and if you haven’t picked up this mix yet, get on that too.

Once again starting it nice and mellow before winding things up into some newer rhythms. I’m on a bit of a Kaytranada kick these days, just like everyone else it seems. No wonder, that dude is making amazing music. His two tracks here and the Sebastian track that precedes them are straight jacked from his Montreal Boiler Room set (something something about DJs stealing).
While you’re checking out new music, be sure to peep the Double Agent Media stuff on Calgary’s own Make Believe records imprint.

Pretty happy with how this show turned out. Hip hop through breaks on to house. Plus some respect paid to some fallen luminaries. I’m even going to overlook that moment when I smacked the needle out the groove and on to the record label…

Takin’ it real chill this week with piles and piles of downtempo.

Mostly hip hop, with a bit of funk and soul and the end, including the (not so?) coincidental playing of a Bobby Womack track just ahead of hearing about his passing.

MCs extraordinaire Relic and Ghettosocks drop by CJSW in the middle of their #cabinfever tour ahead of their June 21st date at the Hifi as part of Sled Island and ahead of their July 1st showing at Dickens’ Pub.
The 2 dope boys get us up to speed on what’s going on with the tour and their music before trading sick freestyle verses live in studio. Not to miss!

Started it off with some great new work from Little Dragon (of course it’s great… What else would it be) and Tall Black Guy. Then some old soul, and a nice pile of hip hop around the middle of the show. Then funk before the proper house finale.

No playlist or show this week as DJ Tokyo took over while I was out of town.
This might be the first time I’ve played a German hip hop track on the show. I only recently stumbled on this Cro track, but I liked the vibe and its Bobby Hebb sample. No rules against playing a 3yr old euro pop tracks, right?
After that, a cheeky bootleg and we slowly run ‘tings up from funk to house.
