SAMMY SENIOR’S MIXTAPE DIG #45

Hey All! Well today is one of those days where i’m cleaning out my closet! Not like Eminem though, I’m not going to unload a bunch of emotional crap on you (I’ll leave that where it belongs.. bottled up deep down inside) what I mean is that I have more mixtapes in my possession to choose from than there is weeks of the year left.. maybe even days! So I thought I would post up a bunch of ones I have really enjoyed listening to.. a few different styles in there, something for everyone I would like to think!

I’m getting straight into it tonight, HERE WE GO

First up, this one is actually hot off the press.. from the Funk Hunters! Last year I was stoked to submit my mix for the “Funk Hunter’s weekly mixtape dig” and have it posted up. The tables have turned! And now I get to return the favour. Very excited to hear these guys are playing at my favourite music festival in the world this summer in New Zealand. Splore is about to get hit with some West Coast Canadian Magic!

Next Up is a mix I have been meaning to post up for a while, Its the hiphoppapotamus! hard to spell and harder to say when you are drunk, which I was when i met this fella in Bristol earlier this month.. hell of a nice guy and makes some great tunes too! This mix has a great feel to it and I was determined to get it blogged.. so here it is!

Next up.. these guys have been kinda quiet on my radar for a while, but then BANG! they show me that they can still lay down a mixtape like no others.. Rollomatik make great music, and their logo is a polar bear. Need I say more? NO!

Que the stage for Dr Spider! I like glitch-hop, but I have to say I am a bit pickey choosey with it.. there is a lot of stuff out there that doesn’t tickle me in the right ways (Easy Raybould) but luckily I’v got Dr Spider here to show me that the good stuff is out there, and can be put together into a delicious mixtape juuust for me. Oh and for everyone else too!

LAST but not least.. here’s another funk filled set from DJ GrooveCellar. I went down to his Cellar once, it was more of a dungeon and it smelled like chloroform, I don’t remember much after that. This guy is repping the funk out in switzerland and I heard through the grapevine that he kicks ass!

PEACE HOMIES!
