Sounding Out The City
Where the sounds are "light on the attitude, heavy on the beat." You'll hear rare grooves, hard jazz, heavy funk, broken beats, library grooves, house, deep soul, Latin flavours, Brazilian vibes, left-field hiphop, rock, drum n bass, afro-beats--all these sounds and more, hand picked and blended fresh into 30-minute mixes, Wednesdays at noon.

Welcome to another episode of Sounding Out The City...
This week’s mix is a blend of jazz, hiphop, soul, funky blues (?), rock, latin bangers, and samba. We get it going with an unreleased gem from PZ (I’m lovin’ his sound a lot lately!), then onto a 2007 track from Canada found on a Stones Throw comp, followed by a jazz classic.
Next up, we move into some instrumental action from Portugal circa 2002, then a couple from Bullion before we hear a couple of really nice remixes of classic soul and a 2007 hiphop anthem. After that, we get a funky ‘hand clapper’ from Bo Diddley, and one of my favourite classic rock tracks.
We then get into some latin heaters, a rare disco funk cut, classic samba from the Trio Macoto, and end it off with a quicky from Sputnik Brown.
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.
