Part 2

Guest Mix - Drums & Other Funky Patterns

Another great guest mix this time from Musician/DJ/Teacher Soulspy Aka Max Schneider from uberkool Berlin. As well as producing music solo he also produces as one half of SoulPatrol in collaboration with Dj Michael Rutten releasing tracks on INFRACom & Compost records in Germany as well as providing music for the Nippon connection film festival.

With "Drums & Other Funky Patterns" Max delivers 76 minutes of pure jazz/funk joy!

Originally mixed quite a few years ago for a friend who wasn`t too partial to the music or so he thought....But with Max weaving his way thru such gems from Nina Simone, Max Roach, Prof Longhair and Eddie Bo, he undoubtedly became converted...Enjoy.

Guest Mix - Ultimate Cookout.

We have something a little bit special for your weekend and beyond.
A Guest DJ mix with an eclectic overload of pure joys.....so get downloading and stick it on your ipod/zune or whatever tickles your earlobes!


The Ultimate Cookout mix is deliciously served up by an inspiring young gentleman from back in the UK, Jez Proctor...here`s what he says about himself.

"From early days hiding behind the sofa listening to 'A Day In The Life' with headphones on, to serving up Moodymann 12"s behind the record counters of many a central London record store, I have served a long a varied musical apprenticeship. Starting a blog at www.innersounds.co.uk to try and trace that journey, and share the contents of my record shelves with anyone who will listen; I have been playing at real and imaginary gigs all over the world for over ten years"

Jez`s view on the mix..

"With Summer peaking through the clouds in London I thought it was time to put together a little mix. This one is designed for driving around with the window wound down, for bumping along in your truck, or with friends around a pool or a BBQ. So get some ice in that glass and forget what is cool or rare or 'important' and just have fun, with a few tracks for Summer 2009, it might be your best Summer yet".
