This month's mix for your listening pleasure....
01 Jimi Tenor - Reich Reggae
An old favourite, JT does Steve (rather than the Third) Reich in his own inimitable reggae style.
02 Spatial AKA Orchestra - Ghost Planet
Recorded live on Later with Jools Holland, Jerry Dammers new take on Ghost Town.
03 Dog With A Rope (Dub) - Quantic presents Flowering Inferno
A nice wee slice of latin dub from our man in Colombia.
04 Mos Dub - Ms. Vampire Booty
From the excellent mash-up album with Mos Def's vocals over Scientist and other classic dub backings, produced by Max Tannone - Mos Dub.
05 Jackie McLean & Michael Carvin - De I Comahlee Ah (edit)
Some pretty intense spiritual jazz from the 1975 album Antiquity.
06 Kings Go Forth - Don't Take My Shadow
Kings Go Forth are a current soul band that sound straight out of the 60s, signed to Luaka Bop. They have the only artwork ever done by Mingering Mike for a real (rather than imaginary) album. You'd have to be dead not to be moved by the passion in this performance.
07 Magic Drum Orchestra vs BiggaBush - Afro Drum & Brass
A mash-up of horns and drums from the Lion Head stable.
08 Blast Head - In Water Disco (BiggaBush Version)
A recent production for the excellent Blast Head from Tokyo on their own Free Hand label.
09 Jimi Tenor & Tony Allen - Mama England (edit)
I have mixed feelings about the new collaboration between these two giants of funk and afro...it's fantastic in places, a bit in need of an edit in others. Well worth a listen though.
10 Honor Blackman & Patrick McNee - Kinky Boots
Found this 7" in a carboot sale recently. Watch a fab video for this tune here
11 Whitefield Brothers - Breakin Through
Raw as ever, from their Earthology album.
12 Hypnotic Brass Ensemble - Jupiter
Just saw these at the Larmer Tree Festival and they get better every time. Look out for an amzing new track called "Kryptonite".
13 Excerpt from "Addis to Axum" - mixed by Quantic
This is a really interesting DJ mix of very obscure records dug out by Will Holand on a trip to Ethiopia in 2004, another one to check. And it's a free download.
14 John Keating Incorporated - Never Never Gonna Give You Up
The Walrus of Lurve goes all moogy on us in this 70s take from John Keating Incorporated.

Summer Mix 2010
This is a new mix for Summer 2010, although it is in reality a re-lick of the set I played at Kimberley in 2009....
01 Journey in Satchidananda - Alice Coltrane
A beautiful spiritual jazz track that features in Jerry Dammer's Spatial Aka set - check them out if you get a chance.
02 Unmechanical Love - Jack Berkeley
Late of Naked and the Boys and now working on something destined to be BIG..that's yours truly on bass and 12 string
03 Butterfly - Henry Mancini
The master at work.....check out Herbie Hancock's version too, once sample dby Rockers on a very obscure remix.
04 Sunshine - Blue Planet Sound
My mates PK and Sam going all summery on us
05 Soulual Healing - Bigga vs Marvin
Couldn't resist slapping a bit of Marvin on one of my more chilled tunes, Sole Sister
06 Let the Happiness In - David Sylvian
An all time fave, love those deep deep horns
07 Mellow Planet - Chandra Walker
Chandra in mellow mood from a couple of years ago - you should hear his piano playing now. Astonishing.
08 Ghost Town - Up Bustle & Out
I don't think this version ever made an official release but it's class in a glass
09 Tom's Version - Herman Marquis
I love this because it's that loop from hip hop classic Fortified Live by Reflection Eternal AND it's a really cheesy reggae track to boot
10 Dunce Cap - Herman And The Aquarians
Note the Jimmy Saville-esque vocal stylings, guys n gals
11 Lively Up The Street - G Corp mashup
From last summer, what could be better than a bit of Streets-wise chit chat over Bob and the Wailers?
12 Doesn't Make It Alright -The Specials
Always brings a lump to my throat this one
13 T Jam - Lightning Head
My dirty guitar and trombone take on Stpehen Marley's beatbox dancehall joint
14 Southern Gul - Erykah Badu
More beatbox beats with THAT voice on top
15 The Man Machine - Kraftwerk
Lest we forget the pristine beauty of synths in Dusseldorf circa 1978
16 Bokoor Sound Special (Chico Mann remix) - Lightning Head
From the forthcoming 13 Versions album, it'll be worth the wait....
