Welcome to another episode of Sounding Out The City...
I'm back after a nice (and much needed) 2 week vacation...
We start off with some downtempo hiphop from the amazing 40 Winks crew and shift into some sick indie hiphop courtesy of Danger Doom before we hear some good Brazilian jazz from Heavy Joker.
Next, it’s a beautiful re-edit of a Radiohead classic that I have been playing over and over at home before shifting to a strange groover by France’s hiphop weirdo Pilooski. Then it’s on to a Lennon/McCartney-esque beauty called ‘Would It Be Impossible’, and then the wonderful Village Callers doing their live rendition of Sergio Mendes’ ‘The Frog’.
Mr Scruff and Quantic team up for a nice little joint, then we hear an obscure jazz track before we dip into a bit of funk and soul. After that, Esther Williams brings in some great vocal jazz before we close out with a modal jazz track, and finally, a bizarre yet absolutely killer version of ‘The Godfather’ theme.
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.
