    I was fortunate enough to support him at a gig awhile back and he is a very nice chap also. Knows his records! A good producer too...

    This is great. Has the feel of a '90s break mix... great tune selection. Thanks for poasting!

  • i didnt get the feel of a 90s break mix at all. very soulful, not a lot of breaks, a lot of things ive never heard on a loop tape. its like a grown man music break tape! great stuff!

    Having listened to it in it's entirety I agree with you, but he did a tape with Killa Kella (beatboxer) that was similarly left-field in it's track selection... anyone remember the name of that one? Think there was a Lynn Christopher juggle routine, various library joints and some hip-hop like Mos Def "Mathematics".

    This has some great juggles - would've liked more scratching though.

  • The "grown man" description is perfect for this mix!

    Antistatic Mounthwash was the name of the tape he did with Killa Kela, Jazz Fudge styles, might have to give it a blast - has been a while .. but I co-sign too on Mr Thing being an all around top bloke, who owns the tables like few others

    I bought this tape at mr bongo in 2000 and rocked the shit out of it. I need to rip it to digital and see how well it's aged.

  • well here's the first ID request...what is that shit that comes in at 9:07? i might actually have it and it's driving me crazy.

    That Day By Day track (around 21 min mark) by Eddie Kendricks sounds like a dry run for Girl You Need A Change Of Mind.
