When It's All Said and Done - Best of 2009 Jungle/DnB Mix

My editor and friend at dogsonacid.com, Khal, asked me to do a 'Best Of' mix at the end of last year for his blog rockthedub.com. As the New Year started to approach I shyly asked if he was up for it again, to which he replied 'You know it Shawty' or something to that effect, in his fantastic trademark demeanor.

When I had to pick the tracks for this mix I started thinking and realized, when I went back in my head some 10+ years, that I don’t think I have been this excited about Jungle/Drum & Bass in a long time, quite possibly not since I first started listening to it. 2009 breathed new life into me as a DJ, a writer/reviewer, and most importantly as die-hard fan.

Fave tunes of the year:
Shimon, Moving Fusion & Ant Miles - Pimp Slap
Arclight ft. Jocasta – Over Me
Friction and K.Tee - Set It Off

...And an honorable mention goes to the Break remix of DJ Die’s ‘Clear Skyz’.

Albums/EPs:
Viper’s Acts of Mad Man
Logistics - Crash Bang Wallop
VibrationTherapy EP

Anyways, here’s what I was bangin’ walls too on the whole in 2009. Watch out for the 19 minute mark…

BACK2BACK SESSIONS MIX VOL. XXXVI
feat.

DJ MAYDAY
(montreal, quebec)
b2b
MACHETE
(los angeles, ca)




Mayday is the homie from north of the border and she came through killer style with this hyphy/bmore/electro set! She is and will be the only non-stateside DJ on these mixes, but i like her swag on the decks so much (after seeing her live) that i had to get her on one of the mixes. I knew of hyphy and the hyphy movement but never really listened to the songs, but if this is what it is about, i am down. There is just a bunch of everything up in this mix (including cutting it up by her on the decks). Seriously this mix is the biznazz. "Jump On It" is my jizzzzam.

Machete comes with *let me clear my throat* thee best back2back sessions mix, period. I love all the mixes i get but this is my favorite. I did the Sessions for 2 reasons (when i began), a) to get music into the hands of the people because i thought djs were slacking on doing mixes that fans could take home and b) because i wanted more mixes from some of my favorite artists in the states. This mix is a personal favorite!!! I have listened to it about 40+ times already. Ol Skool Hip Hop (and i mean wanna jump up and slap yo mama ol skool) at itz finest. I can't even pick a favorite tune!!! Shout out to the underrated 3rd Base. Without them there is no MF Doom or Nas...bet!

Better Late Than Never - Best of 2008 Drum & Bass Mix

I was asked to do a Best of 2008 Drum & Bass mix for rockthedub.com. Here's what Khal, who runs the site, had to say about the mix:

"Due to some unforeseen circumstances, I ended up a) becoming the Editor over at Dogs On Acid, and b) needed an Assistant Editor. My boy Jeryl put me on to this magnificent writer straight out of Canada by the name of Cara. She hooks up the ill feature work, as well as reviews, but I then found out that homegirl is a DJ by the name of Mayday. She flips all styles, and one of them happens to be Drum & Bass. Over the last few months, Cara and I have become fast friends, helping each other out, trading music and the like. She hit me off with this quick mix of her favorite picks for 2008, focusing on the DnB side of things, and she's hooked up some top selections!"

Tracklist:
[01] Top Cat - The Sweetest Thing (Benny Page and Marcus Visionary Mix)
