The irrepressible Pilooski live in the mix va Eamon Harkin’s web spot.
“It’s been a very busy summer but now with Sunday Best and The Beach Party in full flight there’s a little breathing room in an otherwise hectic schedule to launch websites, release records and get through the general back log.
More to come on all of that in time but for now I’m happy to finally post a gem of a mix from Pilooski recorded live at the Mister Saturday Night loft/warehouse party from last month. No track list on this one but I can say its a treasure trove of edits from all the top players in the game. Just what you’d expect from the Parisian master. Here you go…”

Semantik’s on some serious crate diggin’ shit here with everything from BDP to The Turtles and more. This 44 track strong mix is peppered with some well known head nodders and some obscure finds in equal parts. Get your freak on.
“After much thought, I’ve decided to take a bit of a break from giving my isolated commentary about what music should sound like in an ideal world and figured it would be best to give you an illustrated example. By popular demand, here’s a link to a downloadable mp3 version of the Hip Hop, Breaks and Sample mix that I did for Science Skateboards a little while back. If you want a preview, a streaming version is available at the Science website.

It’s been a while since I posted a strictly roots reggae mix, so I was excited to find this little gem online tonight courtesy of Tetsu.
