cheers for posting bong! π
the idea behind this was on the big chill forum – listen to the mix without looking at the tracklist and see how many you can guess! It went down well there – so see if you can get a few. If not, just have a listen – its pretty varied stuff.
enjoy

Thank Mr.L for a totally groovy mix !
Well nice. Funky as a box of funky things, actually.
Tracklist, schmacklist !!
Lovely stuff. π π π
Why I outta… Just read the tracklist on the cover before reading the comment.
Guess this means I miss out on the mystery element though.
It’ll be good to hear track one again – I’d totally forgotten this existed. It’s something to do with a famous prog house DJ right?
i need to dig out me troublefunk live mini album … cheers len
shame mate! yes indeed track one is by the man like – its the shaboo dub – great track
nice one bong – troublefunk indeed π
we’re gonna drop the bomb
on the ppl over there
drop the bomb
drop the bomb
Nice listen, was chilling with the family and surfing on the web to this.
cheers briscoe/firestopper – it was an interesting mix to do – lots of different styles in there. i like the afrobeat one he most i think π
That was great, apart from “Brazilian Love Affair”, which I’m, erm, not too keen on , but which was one of only two tunes I recognised, the other being “If Only I Could”, I also recognised Aswad but couldn’t name the tune. Smileys don’t seem to be working today.
george duke’s finest hour steve! it released my inner 70’s new yorker or something, anyhow – cheers for giving it a go! π
I went ga ga for the r vincent.I must pick that up.I knew the conti,troublefunk,ap project,wagon christ,photek(yay!),aswad & g duke.Surprised I didn’t know maha orch.I guess I spend too much time playing my enormous zappa collection.
A wonderful experience & thanks for the mystery part.Normally,I’d prefer a playlist upfront.
Now that I think of it,tho.Most b00mb0x mixes I’d play from seeing the name.Lenodd carries weight! π
if you like roland vincent check out the ‘shake sauvage’ comp from which it came – all cool french movie soundtracks.
Cheers for the nice words and glad you enjoyed! π
BTW, I’ve been trying to lose a few pounds π

Possibly my fav mix of yours Len. Really enjoyed the variety of the tunes and they all sat nicely together.
Didn’t know many of them, really enjoyed the African and D&B tunes.
cheers stu – if you like the african tunes you should buy the nigeria 70 comp – full of excellent afrobeat stuff π
Enjoyed this one, but have to confess to skipping some of the jazzier / funkier stuff today (probably just not in the mood for it).
I don’t think I’d have done very well if I had attempted to guess. Probably just BMEx and Sidney Youngblood (from my copy of Now Dance 91).
Well, you can mark me down for Blame, Photek, Wagon Christ and Sasha but the rest was all new to me. Nice and varied mix mate, really enjoyed the eclectiness (!) of it. Got that NME Good to Go soundtrack Go Go album that’s got some Trouble Funk on it. Back in the day when Go Go was the next big thing…Must dig it out sometime. cheers hp π π π
Lovely stuff this Len. Most of it was a mystery π
Really enjoyed it though and gave it several listens.
