Nowadays I'm not too hot for essential mixes, I lost interest in them as they shifted their focus towards more popular dancemusic and I'm an underground music lover. However, this one is a gem I just had to share with the world on Soundcloud.

I proudly present, the essential Mix from Freddy Fresh dating from 1998! Man, I can't begin to describe how cool I think this mix is... mostly really oldskool and obscure hiphop, some raw technotracks, near-cheesy 80's hiphop, cool samples from obscure records, really weird monologues from freddy fresh himself... Really, no amount of words can do justice to this mix, you'll have to listen to it to 'understand it'

Incredibly cool experience to listen trough this one,especially when high ;) ... so what are you waiting for? Christmas? Enjoy!

PS. I'm never good at genres so please forgive me if I misused some genres in this description ;)
PS2. This one is with the presenter, Pete Tong

So what we have here for this weeks Throwback Thursday is a mighty, mighty Electro crossover remix from Beef Theatre that was released 3 years ago. The German duo are more than well known for producing Electro House that is sure to test the sturdiest of foundations! If Rage Against The Machine weren’t already fierce enough for you Beef Theatre make sure that fierceness is taken to the max with this remix of ‘ Testify ‘. It’s Electro House but with that pure Rock energy that Rage Against The Machine always bring to their music. Play this one anywhere and it’s gonna go off, simple as that!

The track is available from their Facebook page HERE, along with a few other belting tracks at the usual cost of a like.

Hang in there guys and gals, 1 more day and it’s time to shake those tail feathers! Rave safe!

The seventh renewal of the Space Cowboys’ and SunsetSF’s co-production of Ghost Ship Halloween was nothing short of spectacular. This year the mind-blowing art and music of Ghost Ship was spread over two nights instead of one. It was a great privilege to be a part of such an amazing spectacle once again. This is the recording of my midnight set on the Mog during the second night of the festivities. My heartfelt thanks to Andrea Lundquist, Robbie Kowal and the rest of the Ghost Ship LLC for a truly memorable night. – Zach

Ah yes, our jiggy hombre, FATHER FUNK let loose five wobbly, mid-tempo cuts that will have you shaking faster than bananas and ice cream in a blender set to liquify. Here are some creamy bass tones blended with enough funky and sweet samples to fuel those dance floor cravings. Let’s all thank Scour Records for publishing this tasty recipe, shall we. You can do just that by grabbing the EP over at Juno.

So our good friends and fellow bloggers over at Ghetto Funk held a wee Shindig, A Halloween Shindig in fact to celebrate their 4th birthday a couple of weeks ago in Bristol. In true style they made it one of THE parties of the Halloween season with a lineup to scare off any dance shy punter! Some of the artists on the bill were Funkanomics, B-Side and also Dub Pistol’s Barry Ashworth, WBBL and Father Funk whose sets were recorded.

It’s a Ghetto Funk party so it goes without saying that these 3 mixes are jam packed with an incredible amount of top draw Bass, Beats and Funk.

Just one more thing to add, Happy Birthday Ghetto Funk from all at LSM!
