DJ Bobby Brazuka - 'A Tribute to Chase, Paine & Bundy' Mix

Auckland City's Brazilian ambassador and all-round party guy Bob Brazuka has put together a new mix in his long line of musical episodes.

This one is titled 'A Tribute to Chase, Paine & Bundy'; a tribute mix to some of his favourite DJ's, DylanC, Manuel Bundy and ahhh, me.

Smooth grooves are definitely the modus here: DJ Mitsu the Beats, Sade, Roy Ayers cover versions, Dilla and all that!

Have a listen for yourself.

Vanilla

Vanilla is a cat from the UK that I recently stumbled upon.

Check out his Bandcamp page with special DL focus on his v. nice LP, 'Chrometrails'.

Definitely some Dilla-sound going on here, but unlike a lot of imitators out there this guy can actually make a hot beat.

Check out this LOVELY beat using the classic Roy Ayers legendary 'Everybody Loves the Sunshine' as sample material.

Monday (Tuesday) Five - 28th March, 2011

A good ol' fashioned rustic number 5 appears on this weeks list.

Let's take it back then with some classic faves of mine over the years...

One. Heatwave - 'Star of the Story' (From their smooth-as 1977 LP 'Central Heating'. Tip: ATCQ sample).

Two. Happy Mondays - 'Loose Fit' (From their only KILLER album 'Pills, Thrills & Bellyaches).

Three. The Roots feat Common - 'Act Too (Love of My Life)' ("The an-tici-pation arose as time froze...").

Four. Roy Ayers - 'Searchin'' (Good vibrations!)

Five. The Smiths - 'Half A Person' (Jangly Marr guitar and Morrissey rhymes at their best).
