WARNING THIS MIX IS NOT SAFE FOR WORK (NSFW)!

This mix is heavily laden with samples from porn movies and clips and hence is very not safe for work, in fact it’s probably not to everyone’s tastes. Having said that, this is a mix I started working on in 2006 so it’s taken me almost 2 years to make. I obviously haven’t been working on it solidly all that time but I’m really proud of it – I think it’s got some great samples in there and it makes me smile every time I listen to it 🙂

Anyway – you have been warned. Listening on headphones is advised. Apologies if this offends anyone.

Works very nicely.Somehow,the jazz & jizz go together well.
Even the moby fit in fine.

@useo8 thanks mate, glad you’re liking it. Haha – there’s no ‘official’ video for it but I bet it would work well with some visuals though then it would be even MORE nsfw 🙂

@lenodd no probs mate – it can be tricky, just don’t leave it lying around in your library cos then one day it’ll come on shuffle and you’ll play it to your family and I’ll get blamed! 😉

i had a listen last night and its got some great tunes on it – the samples though are a bit overplayed for a whole tape – plus it makes it unlistenable in an around the house context! nice idea, but unworkable for me!

Hey Lenodd – thanks for giving it a listen. Yeah, it’s pretty unlistenable for a whole mix – I made it much more as a labour of love (no pun intended) and it taught me a lot about how to drop samples into mixes. That said, it does bring a smile to my face everytime I listen and I’m still pretty proud of it. I doubt I’ll listen on heavy rotation tho 🙂

Great mixing – its difficult to mix jazz and the time you’ve spent to perfect it is evident. If you ever make an alternate mix sans the moaning I’ll be able to play it in the car!
