My friend Kasey from Brazilian Beats and all sorts of other Bristol-based places where you can hear grooovy global beats asked me to record a demo mix for his World Beatz night, but "go easy on the Balkan"... which was a bit of a No Stairway! Denied! moment, but actually had loads of fun doing this little mix, dunno if it fits in with what you want Kasey but here it is for y'all to check out...

andykisaragi - No Stairway mix

tracklist follows...

I've mentioned it before: i totally love everything Peter Fox does.

So I'm very excited by this:

Peter Fox is basically my hero... I don't think I've ever managed to do a set or record a mix without playing a tune from his band Seeed or one of his solo efforts. Not only is he a great MC (although - according to a native german speaker - not lyrically, but I can't understand the majority of what he's actually saying, and in terms of delivery he's spot on) but an amazing producer as well, behind a bunch of Seeed's best work - Doctor's Darling riddim anyone? y'know... Tanya Stephens - It's a Pity... yeah that was him! Who'd have thought one of the biggest riddims of the decade was German??
