Lifetones - For A Reason

Charles Bullen (This Heat`s guitarist) started listening to some reggae music after a DJ friend of his turned him on to it. after the Deceit sessions he decided to start a project based on these caribbean rhythms and took it to a whole new level. inspiring lyrics, epic ras drum tracks, weird/beautiful harmonies and some chant-style voices that you would hear on any This Heat record. this is some serious stuff. its a rare listen at first but it sucks you in.

Pantless - ADD Vol. 2


another ADD mix has arosen from the ashes of all things danceable. this mix was really fun to create but way overdue. expect sonic debauchery with a mix of funk, dub, hip hop and blissful soundscapes. i really hope this music speaks to you as it has to me.

01 Invisible On The Brow - Fantasmes
02 Santic Dub - Rockers Allstars
03 Theme De Yoyo - Art Ensamble Of Chicago
04 Hollywood Swingin` - Kool & The Gang
05 Ghetto Life - Rick James
