MdCL presents Rahel : Hope
Our man Mark de Clive-Lowe decides to give away his collaboration with Rahel as a free download through his bandcamp. “RAHEL has collaborated with Dudley Perkins, Georgia Anne Muldrow and Eric Lau. One of the UK’s next generation of soul artists, here’s the result of hitting studio with MdCL for some piano-laden head-nod… ”
Julien Dyne

This week’s mixes found on the net. London dubsteppa Untold, Monday Jazz Session from Ichiro, Radio Aperitivo, Cazeaux Oslo, Raphael Saadiq tribute mix by Stimulus & Boards of Canada mix by Skywave Systems.
AFTA-1 x Gas’d
Done in conjunction with the GAS-D , features beats from usual suspects like Dilla, Platinum Pied Pipers, Dam Funk as well as relatively unknown artists and of course AFTA-1 himself. Great sluggish hip-hop to bop your head to on sunny weather and stoned minds.
