DJ Moneyshot presents Beastie Beats: Check Your Head

beastie-boys

Hot rockin’ mix of one of my all time fave album’s source materials found over at Mixed Bizness.

“The one and only DJ Moneyshot has sent us this truly astonishingly amazing mixtape. To put it simply and in the words of the man himself ‘It’s a mega thrash through all the tunes that the Beastie Boys plundered for their Check Your Head album, looped, re-edited and blended right up by my good self.’ Only it’s not that simple. Something as finely crafted as this could never be so simple. It’s going out on Ninja Tune’s Solid Steel radio next month but we have the exclusive for you. Make your life better and get your download on….” – MB

Bos Bos presents Ghost Bos: The Mind Bridge

bosbos-mindbridge-frontbosbos-mindbridge-rear

Another great set from Bos Bos (I posted awicked dubstep set by him some time ago). Here’s his tribute to the retro-futuristic Ghost Box label. I only discovered The Advisory Circle for the first time this year, and loved their stuff greatly. Trust me, this mix is a real treat.

“Over the past half a decade or so, the Ghost Box label has quietly been carving a path into the strangest of musical territory. Reminiscent of the sounds found in hoary educational school films, or creepy eighties BBC shows like Chocky, much of the label’s output readily falls into the self-imposed genre known as ‘Hauntology’. Throw in some carefully inspired artwork by prominent graphic designer (and label founder) Julian House, and the authentic sense of nostalgia is complete. The Mind Bridge is a culmination of the twisted minds who frequent the GB roster, such as The Advisory Circle, Belbury Poly, The Focus Group and so on. Step into the other world of Ghost Box – and you may never return quite the same again.” – Bos

Meatskull presents The Oktopus Sessions: Can’t Sleep Vol 2

More early morning mixing malady made by me back in ‘02. Again, a real mixed bag. Part 3 to follow! – Meatskull

Meatskull presents The Oktopus Sessions – Can’t Sleep Vol 1

cant-sleep-1

Here’s the second Okto-post of the day. This is the first in a series of 3 parts of one long dj set made during the morning of June 9, 2002 – the day after the night before. The scenario involved around a dozen horizontal bodies lazing around the Oktopad, sipping coffees and chatting/laughing while I spun these tunes on the turntables. Strictly a vinyl affair with no editing etc., these sets are from another time in my life that I recall with great affection, especially the people who were present on the day.

No tracklisting, but don’t let that scare you. It’s all pretty downbeat and genre hopping, and features a diverse range of artists including The Orb, Nick Drake, Red Snapper, Don Cherry, One Dove, Autechre, Alton Ellis, Fila Brazillia, Quincey Jones and so on and on. I hope you enjoy listening to them as much as i enjoyed making them. – Meatskull
