A THGXTMID Mix: Haze City – Calling Planet Earth (Cosmic & Deep Jazz Mixtape)

The Two Hungry Ghosts X Tell Me I’m Dreaming mixtape series continues with sixty minutes of cosmic and deep jazz, selected by producer Haze City (Cassé Records, Bristol).

The first to admit “he’s not a club DJ” this mix has been carefully designed to create a space for thought and reflection. Tracks are neatly interwoven into a natural and balanced journey. Spiritual messages and joyous melodies fill the selection in an uplifting celebration of planet earth and it’s creation.

Featuring Sun Ra, Art Ensemble of Chicago, Lloyd Miller, Horace Trapscott & The Pan Afrikan Peoples Arkestra, drop out and lose yourself in this deep, cosmic journey.

Haze City is a resident on Noods Radio, with a show every second Sunday of the month, where he plays inspirations and new discoveries, from Spiritual Jazz to Broken Beat.

Basic Rhythm – New Style EP

Only two weeks into the new year and winner of the DJ Mag’s “Best Label Of 2018” award Sneaker Social Club have already announced details of their first release of 2019. London based producer Basic Rhythm kicks of the proceedings this year with four tracks of bustling electronics.

Much like the label itself this EP is eclectic, wild and hard to pin down. “New Style” opens the twelve fusing house stabs with a broken beat drum pattern reminiscent of classic Marc Mac (4hero) under his Nu Era guise. This is followed by “Too Nuff” which raises the BPM and turns up the bass for a raucous 140 BPM excursion.

The B Side launches with “London Warehouse”, an energetic fusion of sound system and techno club culture pulsating with the vibrancy of 90’s pirate radio. “Ready Again” concludes the EP with a peculiar sparse drum pattern and quirky bass tones. The EP is released on February 15th and is available to pre-order now on both vinyl and digital formats.

Jesse Kuye – You’ve Been Listening To J.Tijn

The fourth release on Library Tool Kit (a sub label of the mighty West Norwood Cassette Library) is by London producer Jesse Kuye. More commonly known as J.Tijn, In An Instant and more recently Zeki this EP waves goodbye to his J.Tijn moniker marking a new chapter in Jesse’s journey into wonky techno and leftfield electronics. The tracks on this ten inch are a mixture of old and new, the A Side featuring music recorded specially for this modern day library record and the B Side containing unreleased songs from the J.Tijn archive. Each one produced or edited to two minutes or under these EP’s always deliver a combination of genuine WTF moments and loops that make you want to buy a second copy and pretend it was you in that DMC World Mixing Championship final.

A fitting way to kill off this alias “You’ve Been Listening To J.Tijn” refuses to go quietly instead opting for a no holes barred kicking and screaming departure. Like the previous three volumes this is vinyl only for now with a potential digital release some time in the future.
