Fresh Drops Vol. 4 - Kris Jones Extended 2 Hour Mix

/

This month for Fresh Drops we ended up not having in a guest, but Kris dropped an extended 2 hour mix.  The vibes on this range from Nu Disco to Deep and Future House and some Garage influence for good measure.  A few of these are out as free downloads, a couple are forthcoming on some great labels, as well as some already released heat.  Make sure to check the tracklisting below. This is a summer vibe mix throughout, we hope you enjoy. 

And in case you haven't seen this feature before, we have a monthly show that we stream live on Underground Sound Canada's Mixlr channel.  We are just one week, but there are new mixes every Sunday night.

Harrison - Music To... Make Summer Love

/

Toronto producer Harrison just dropped a summer mix for i-D over the weekend for their "Music To..." series. Harrison's is entitled "Music To... Make Summer Love", and is aptly named for the music that is in the mix.  Packed with groovy, funky, summery music, this has everything from dreamy reworks of pop jams to funky nu disco and house tracks to hip hop and rap.  No download or tracklisting on this, so you'll have to use your ears, memory, or maybe Shazam to ID your personal gems from the mix. I know there are some Harrison originals along with some tracks from Jafunk, Geotherory and a Royce remix, but I won't ruin your track searching adventures.

Stream and enjoy the full mix below.

Blonde - Highlights Vol. 006

/

I came across this mix over the weekend, and Blonde has yet to disappoint me with any of their productions or mixes - and their most recent installment of the aptly named Highlights mix series is no exception. There is some great new material in here (remixes from the likes of The Magician and TCTS), mixed in with a sprinkling of classics (Cassius' 99 anyone?). If you're looking for some house music with some energy and funk to get your week started, look no further.

Deep Vibe Vol 5. Mixed By Gavin Crawford

/

So there are any number of reasons for me posting this mix, any and all of which are true and have contributed to this post.  First, it's a hell of a great deep house mix, by my good friend Gavin Crawford.  Second, this has a nice focus on local artists, which I love to feature - Gavin is from right here in Regina, and the guest mix comes from Shael, from the province over, in Winnipeg. Third, Gavin's mix opens with a track from a label that we are now proudly affiliated with, Deepwit Recordings. Fourth, I think this is a perfect mix to get through a Thursday.  And lastly, it gives a nice little bridge into reminding you that this Sunday on Underground Sound Canada's Mixlr, Fresh Drops Vol. 2 will be aired, along with a guest mix from NuKraft.

With all that said, check out the mix below - tune in, turn up and vibe out.

CRSSD Festival Mix - Lee K

/

Dance music publication heavyweight Mixmag uploaded this mix from Lee K, leading up to the CRSSD Festival that went down in San Diego this weekend. I've been listening to this mix over and over since finding it on Mixmag's Soundcloud page - you can start this mix from anywhere along the stream and it is enjoyable.  This is a hot mix and master blend of house and techno, so if those are genres you are into, get on this mix asap - you won't regret it.

Standout tracks in this mix for me are:

Beatamines - Lotus

Miguel Bastida - Moudness

Amber - Waves of Grain (Hobo's Hidden Resort Remix)

But honestly, just listen to the whole mix.  It's spectacularly curated and mixed. If you want more from Lee K, check out her Soundcloud page here.

Just Kiddin - The Getaway Mixtape

/

We've been rocking this mix here and there for some time now, as Just Kiddin published it to their Soundcloud not quite a month ago.  We thought it would be a good time to post it though, as it is a promo mix for the new EP that Just Kiddin is releasing for free through Bit Torrent today (March 2nd). The two tracks that Just Kiddin are releasing are Getaway and Always There, which appear in the mix at 12:50 and 27:50 respectively.Grab the two track EP (the pack includes the mix, and both mp3 and wav files) right here. All you have to do is submit your email address and download the bundle torrent file.  You will need a torrent client to finish the download.

This is a great summery mix that follows a nice energy progression throughout, with each track building on the last, and with a nice mix of fresh faces and established artists featured. If there was a mix to get you through the Monday blahs, the midweek slump, or the last bits of winter, it's definitely this one.  The mix is up for free download as well, so you can take it wherever you like by hitting the shopping cart button on the player below.

Underground Sound Presents Fresh Drops Vol. 1

Here's the inaugural mix that I did for Underground Sound Canada, for what will be a monthly mix.  Underground Sound focuses on genres of house music, and so the Fresh Drops monthly mix will consist of a lot of the house music that I have or will be posting on the blog, along with a few extras here and there.  This month I started off chill and funky, and slowly made my way into some higher bpm deep house.  

Also, don't forget that we also had an exclusive guest mix this month from Jono Cruz, who came in with 50 fiery minutes of Future R&B and Hip Hop.  The guest mix is hosted exclusively on the blog, and can be found right here.
