Episode #005 - Step Up

(166 downloads)

Download this mix (30 min)
Welcome to another episode of Sounding Out The City...

What would 50's R&B sound like if it was made by a few good underground artists today? Well, most of the tracks on this mix will give you some idea.

I also threw in a drum 'n bass tune with a turntablist twist for good measure. That and a dope jazzy hiphop track by The Vanishing System. Enjoy!

I started out making mixes for myself to listen to during drives and subway rides. Somewhere along the way, I thought other people might enjoy the music in the mixes as much as I do, so I began posting them. My wish is simply to share what I consider to be really good yet seldom heard music with others.

You'll hear 30 minute mixes that incorporate rare grooves from the past along with the modern sounds of today, and a dash of various flavours--from latin jazz, to disco, to classic rock, to sample-based beat oriented styles and beyond.

Please leave a comment if you like what you are hearing and share this podcast with others.
