Mixtape Fridays
Happy Friday everyone. Just got back a few hours ago from seeing Flying Lotus and Lunice at Just For Laughs, and I’m happy to say that this show exceeded my already high expectations. Lunice got the crowd pumped up and ready to go by playing a great selection of hip hop tracks and showing off his formidable dance moves. He was a great opener, but it was Fly Lo who really brought down the house. He played off of the crowd to perfection, seamlessly switching between hip hop, dubstep, house, and electro, and he did it all with a huge grin on his face. The crowd demanded two encores, and Fly Lo seemed almost blown away by the overwhelming reception. A great time was had by all, and I can only hope that the rest of this weekend is as much fun.
Our first mixtape this week comes from emerging Parisian producer Canblaster. This Jetpack mixtape we have for you today is absolute fire, as is the rest of Canblaster’s work. I’m definitely keeping an eye out for anything of his that I can find, I suggest you do the same.
Next up we have another installment of BBC Radio 1′s Essential Mix, and this one features British dance music giants The Count & Sinden. I was lucky enough to see Sinden this summer at the HARD tour in Philly, and the crowd absolutely loved his set.
And now your tracks for the weekend.
