Cosmo Baker "Still Good"

Cosmo · August 2007

This mix is the sequel to my early summer mix "Feeling Good." In that mix I tried to capture, using songs that I love and that have a very special meaning to me, a certain feeling that I equate with the beginning of summer. There's a certain energy and electricity that is about during the first few weeks of the season, when everything seems alive and in it's right place.For this mix I wanted to try and capture the stillness of summer, when the air is hot and the days are long, and time seems to be moving at a slower pace than normal. This is a companion piece to "Feeling Good" but it takes a different direction and deals with another type of - but no less intense - energy.Enjoy!

When it comes to rare groove mixes 2 out of 3 times I tend to choose a Cosmo Baker mix.

DocMcCoy · August 2007

As per the last one, Cos, there are some beauties on here. Props for "Old Smokey", a favourite summer tune of mine. The lyrics are pretty deep on that one, too.

Thanks for this mix Cos, I'm looking forward to hearing it. I've seen you post before about how Fall is your favorite season, you got something planned for that time of year?

DrJoel · August 2007

Fantastic.

This has got 'Joel has Tuesday off and is gonna be in the car a lot' written all over it. Great mix Cosmo, thank you.

ariel_calmer · August 2007

Thanks cosmo!!!! I'm home recovering from a bad bout of flu and this is just what's needed.

PS: 650+ downloads and no more appreciation?

Oh my God do I love the "Feeling Good" mix. Isn't Harvey Mason such a good look, always? I love all the selections, the mixing, the cover, everything. A public service man. Downloading the other joint now. Seriously this is like jerk chicken and tomato salad. This goes back to back with Paul Nice's Soul on the Grill. And I love that Naughty by Nature sampled Benny Golson. See I didn't know that cause I'm a little dude with raers on my ipod.
