Wow, what an uplifting jazz (real jazz, not jazz-step dnb) mix for a Monday morning. Marky is a master and this mix makes me think of a beautiful summer day outside at the park.
DJ Marky – Jazz Funk Mixtape

Katalyst – On The Frontline…Warriors
Fellow SB family member, Adrian Scientia aka Katalyst aka The Black Bull, finally got around to encoding one of his earliest mixtapes (but wouldn’t post it himself, so I’m doing it). The overriding theme for the tape was the 1979 gang classic, The Warriors and it shows from the intro and throughout. Initially recorded on […]
Dead Man’s Chest – Trilogy Dubs
Dead Man’s Chest (aka Eveson) is dropping an actual mixtape! And by mixtape I don’t mean collection of poorly thrown together rap tracks on a CD that some dude tries to sell you for $10 on the subway. No, this is an actual cassette tape! A real, old school, reel-to-reel-need-a-tapedeck tape! Did I mention it’s […]
Ed Rush – Live in 98
I was digging through an old hard drive last night and came upon this mixtape that I ripped as part of my cassette mixing project from a few years ago. Ed Rush – Live in 98 was a tape I picked up from a discount bin at a used CD store in Dallas. The tape […]
Chimpo – Monkey Teef Mixtape
Mancunian DJ/Producer/MC/Nutter Chimpo just released his “Monkey Teef” mixtape through the Girls Music imprint while I was on my Thanksgiving vacation. If you dig UK Grime and hip-hop with a couple of VERY British skits, then head over and give it a listen. You can download the zip file for free by providing Girls Music […]
Stray – Since You’ve Been Gone Mixtape
I wrote this last Wednesday, but had no time to post it. Better late than never I guess… ——————- Traveling for work isn’t all it’s cracked up to be. Having a nice selection of music is crucial for me when I have to leave my wife and kid for any extended length of time. Eveson […]
Juju – 606am Convulsions
Several months ago I began digitizing my mixtape collection. I just finished that project and will begin posting some of these mixtapes to the blog as I get them EQ’ed a bit. Next up is San Francisco-based, and Phuckateck Collective member, DJ Juju’s 6:06 AM Convulsions. I don’t remember the circumstances of how I came […]
DJ Trace – Philadelphia Sessions Version 1.0
I’m in the process of ripping a box of mixtapes so I can, eventually, get rid of them and this is one of the better finds in the box. If I recall correctly, I bought this tape in 1999 at 611 Records during a trip to Philadelphia and the tracklist (featuring the bigger Bad Company, […]
Andy C – Telepathy Boxing Day Mixtape 97
I bought this tape in 98 at a giant rave in Washington DC. It languished in my tape collection for a few years until I ripped it recently on a whim. Andy C handles the decks while Stevie Hyper D, Shabbadee, and Skibbadee host throughout. As a bit of a nostalgia bonus, it has an […]
Action Bronson – Rare Chandeliers
Vice Magazine, by way of their new label Vice Records, are releasing Action Bronson’s newest mixtape for free. You might be familiar with his work with Riff Raff last year, but if not, they’ve provided a nice little write-up about him and the album. The cover art alone makes it worth a download, but the […]
