playjazzloud sessions vol. 73

Three things to take care of this week even though I made the mix a week ago :)

1st up I have a couple of CDs to give away for the very catchy Lylit with her EP "Unexpected." I've dropped "Change" in this week's podcast and it is one of seven jazzy & soulful grooves. A new album is dropping this month I believe. Find out everything www.lylit.com. To get yourself a copy just be one of the first two people to drop me a line at jc at playjazzloud dot com.

2nd thing to deal with is the tragedy that continues to unfold over in Japan. Truly shocking. I've dropped a bunch of Japanese jazz this week towards the end of the show. Thoughts out to everybody over there.

3rd please check out my mix for the Medolica DJ Competition over at MixCloud, give it a play and spread as every listen counts. http://tinyurl.com/MixCloudMedolica

This week I have more music from the great James Blake album plus a new album from Manchester's Rise as well as LA based King. Some classic jazz-funk and trip-hop from back in the day with DJ Shadow and Marden Hill. Until next week. Listen above or download here.

playjazzloud sessions Melodica DJ Competition

Hey folks regular service will resume next week as I'll have time to drop a mix on Sunday. In the meantime here's a mix I did a couple nights ago for a DJ competition running over at MixCloud that supports the Chris Coco night happening at the Stop Making Sense Music Festival.

I love the type of music on the Medolica show so this was a perfect competition to knock out a quick mix for. This was the first set I came up with and I was thinking it was just going to be a warm up as I figured out what tracks to include in 30 mins and well it's not perfect but then it's spontaneous and it works (for me at least). So here it is. Enjoy. Every play and favorite counts towards winning so there'll be no download until after the competition closes.

PJL Intro
Miguel Atwood Ferguson & Carlos Nino "Antiquity" (D'Wala Edit)
Nora Jones "Salida del Sol"
Sebastien Tellier "La Ritournelle"
Radiohead "Separator"
I:Cube "Faling"
Amp Dog Knight "I'm doing fine"
Seiji ft. Q-Tip "Loose Tips"
Mavis ft. Candi Staton "Revolution" (DarkStarr remix)
PJL Outro

playjazzloud goes house (again)

So I always like a challenge and over at MixCloud they are running another competition (last one I entered was their BBE mix tape comp and you can check the mix here) this time on a house tip. While my podcasts aren't known for house sounds I have been known to drop the 4/4 beats since house & garage is a big part of the record collection.

It seems like most folks are throwing down tech house, electro house, techno and other less than playjazzloud sounds so obviously I'm taken it upon myself to drop something that fits what they are after but that is undoubtedly part of the playjazzloud sound. The rules of the competition are for a 30 min mix (which is what I've done) but that's just not enough for me so I kept going and there will be a full extended (1:20 min) mix that I will release in a week or so. I need your help to at least make my entry respectable and not get drowned out by all the harder sounding mixes, so listen (more than once if you can!) and favor the mix! Recommend me in the house category.

Thanks for your support and please spread this around people, spread it around! Look out for the extended music w/ Theo Parrish, Ame, Henrik Schwarz, Actress, Radiohead and much more.

East Village Loft Society - Manhattan Anthem

Wagon Cooking - Start to play (Christian Prommer Remix)

Rainer Truby - Es Lo Que Pasa

Black Science Orchestra - Save Us (The Jam Album Version)

Johnick - Home storm

Robert Ownes - So into you (Dennis Ferrer Mix)

Talvin Singh - Vikram the Vampire (FK Mix)

Underworld - Push (Roger S Mix)

A Hundred Birds - Black Water

runtime 32 mins

Sorry no download available as you know its a competition so I'm trying to make everyone listen via the MixCloud player above as that's where the plays are counted.
