Thirsty Thursday

The week-long grooving continues. Another dose of deep and funky house on this Thirsty Thursday. Catch up on all mixes in this series from Sunday to Wednesday if you haven't already on my blog or soundcloud. Let me know if you're feelin' it!

Thanks to Anna Alexander for the lovely photo from Austria.

Strange Spaces and Comfortable Places

The inspiration for this mix comes from an artist I recently discovered, Nicholas Jaar. His music is strange yet enthralling, weird yet beautiful and nothing quite like I've heard. Therefore, ten of the twenty-five tracks in this mix were produced by the man himself. I've attempted to expand on this experimental vibe and take you through many Strange Spaces and Comfortable Places. I would love to hear some feedback on this, thanks for listening!

Weird Wedneday

Ever notice things often get a bit weird on Wednesdays? Ya know, the good kinda weird. Like the deep and sexy booty-shaking kind. Join Cookie Monster and come get weird.

Ideal Conditions

This is a follow up to the dreamy downtempo mix I did last year called Unconditional Happiness. This edition features Thievery Corporation, Emancipator, Telepopmusik, Nujabes, Psychemagik, Neighbour and a whole splatter of other beautiful music.

Hopefully today, and everyday, you find your Ideal Conditions.

The Squirt Special

The first time I dropped the "L-Bomb" on Jess I also recorded this mix for her. Until now I haven't shared it with anyone, but today being her birthday I thought it would be a good time. It's got a few slow jams, some folk, a couple oldies, and finishes up with a true classic that we both really dig.

Soundcloud won't let me put this one up, so you can either listen to it straight off mixcloud, or download it directly by clicking right here.

Give it a listen first. Ask me if you really need a track name.

Tasty Tuesday

Treat yourself to the next day in this week long series, following Sunny Sunday and Moody Monday. Get down to some disco, vocal, funky, melodic, deep house.

Also, the sequel to Unconditional Happiness is now in the works and should be ready by the end of November.

Moody Monday

I had a few days off after returning home from Burning Man so I had a chance to sneak this mix in. In June I put out a mix called Sunny Sunday.

This is the end of summer sequel Moody Monday. And after a few listens it definitely feels pretty moody the way it flows throughs many different styles and emotions. With so much good music coming out these days I had to make it an hour and a half long even after cutting a bunch of other great tracks. These moody skies were found at sunrise over Cheakamus Lake last summer.

All of my previous mixes, some of which aren't on soundcloud can be found on this blog below.
