Welcome to another episode of Sounding Out The City...

This week, we start off with some hiphop instrumentals from Elaquent, Madlib, and Koushik. Then it’s onto a cut and paste break from Poland, some tropicalia from Gal Costa, and 70s Brazilian grooves from Os Diagonais, and Trio Macoto.

From there, we hear some funky disco off the Metralleta Stein OST, and some rare groove from Gary Bartz.

The mix finishes off with some new house music from Stee Downes, Domu, and Jesse Rose.

Enjoy!

Episode #094 - 4 One Night

(71 downloads)

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

This week, I play a few tracks that deserved more attention than they got when they first came out. But first, I start off with a French library lounger and follow up with some new stuff from deep house legend, Moodymann.

After that, it’s Canadian hiphop off Moonstarr’s Public Transit Recordings label. Then, it’s onto more hiphop, this time from the amazing Sputnik Brown crew featuring New York’s next big thing Oxygen holding down the lyrics. These dudes are the real deal and will be blowing up real soon. Go check out their MySpace page to hear what good hiphop sounds like.

We then shift into some spacey instrumental stuff with a nice collabo between Sam Irl and Dorian Concept, followed by fantastic heavy funk from The Grits, and some latin-tinged hiphop from 7 Samurai. After that, it’s 2 more tracks that deserved more shine in 2008-Brittany Bosco’s indie cut “8-Track” and Cutty Lark’s “Get Caught” off the Do Right! label.

The mix comes to a close with a very rare jazz groove from People, and ends with what is perhaps my favourite house music track of all time—the legendary “New Jersey Deep”.

Enjoy!

My Profile

Driftwood

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.

For your requests, questions, or just to get in touch, email: soundingoutthecity@hotmail.com
Cheers.
