Summer in the City

So its been some long slow days in Customer Service of late. The AC makes loads of noise and almost drowns out the stereo so we end up sitting sweating without it on. Ah well. So I've been scouring the interweb for mixes and have come up with 3 new fave mix types. In order of amazingness

1 - DJ Rupture - DJ Rupture - Low Income Tomorrow Mix - RES magazine featured him as one of their 10 to watch and they weren't wrong - this mix is fucking insane - theres some more mixes on his website.

2 - Cerified Bananas - Certified Bananas Monthly Mixes - fucking wicked mix of hip hop and other bits and pieces - stand out tune is a chopped and screwed version of Modest Mouse - Float on. Hoisted.

3 - Low Bee - Low Bee Monthly Mixes - Diplo's partner in crime, the mixes are wicked. Similair in style to CB but still wicked.


So what else? Have actually been playing on the Ninja Tune forum loads recently and got some wicked mixes from there which I'll post soon. Someone posted these Japanese Smoking Manners - don't know if they're real or not but they cool as fuck.

Anyway, heres a little mini summer dust bowl mix - enjoy


  • Handsome Boy Modelling School - Sunshine

  • Mark Lanegan - Sleep with Me

  • PJ Harvey - Teclo

  • Calexico - Quattro (World Drifts In)

  • Queens of the Stoneage - Mosquito Song

    i'm actually listening to DFA1979 right now...to that exact song!

    The songs that i've heard on your list (QoTSA & Arcade Fire) are excellent. I've never really been able to get into dj/rupture. I have "Lonesome Side/ft. Lily" which is excellent but none of his other stuff seems to have a lasting effect with me. *shrug*

    I've never heard any of his actual tunes (although I'm sure some of them are on some of the mixes I've heard of his) but yeah his mixes are fucking wicked - they tend to wind up in hectic drum and bass but thats cool - yeah he's wicked
