#58 is a mix of jazzy latin beats, hiphop and with hints of afropop and disco. Tracks jointly selected by error101 and me. An easygoing and cheerful mix compared to some previous ones. Make sure you get the cumbia song from bumrocks if you like it, and also the Wanda song is available on beatelectric Stream [...]
Don’t ask me where 55-56 is, forgot to upload them! Starts off with moogy balearic soundscapes, think the transition to Yeasayer works good, not sure about the next oriental jazz piece.

No reggae fan really wants to hear something that sounds “dubby.” (Dub yes, “dubby” no.) The best dub, a purist would say, was created by a man, with Jamaican roots, in his home studio — preferably before it caught fire and was destroyed — and certainly not by a pan-European collective like, say, the Dynamics.

Seriously, if you don't enjoy this week’s installment of the Friday Mix Tape, I’ll be reporting you to the authorities on suspicion of Communism and/or terrorism. Just try me, motherbitches. Try to stream this 46-minute masterpiece and not enjoy it. Like my failing English, it's just unpossible. We start you off with the unheralded geniuses of [...]
