Category: CJSW – Fat Beat Diet (Page 36 of 51)
Special 2 hour long-player ahead of our move to Monday nights. Starting it out with some nice D’n’B, then into some classic acid jazz stuff and relatively more recent broken beat (early millennium for the latter, early 90’s for the latter) for the second half hour. Then we dropped it into some hip hop and breaks for the last hour. Enjoy.

We’ve got a new time!
The Fat Beat Diet is now on
Mondays from 8:30pm to 10:00pm.
Hopefully now that it’s a bit earlier, you can all stay up to listen. Also, back to an hour and half. Hooray!
Starting off with some nice local heat from Dominic Pierce and A-Mac, then a few blippy joints. Don’t sleep on Montrealer Jacques Greene either. Then drop into the usual hip hop styles ahead of this weekend’s Raekwon concert.

My Artifacts 12
Tying in with CJSW’s Record Store Day, this week we dug deep into the crate and selected the finest records for an all-vinyl show. And by “dug deep into the crate and selected the finest records,” I mean I grabbed the nearest stack of records and brought ’em to the station and tried to put together a show. My vinyl collection is in various states of disorganization and I never managed to get it quite organized since my move nearly 2yrs ago. Now that I’m moving to a bigger place in a few weeks, I’ve got high hopes of finally getting things straightened out so that the collection is more er, accessible . Look out for more vinyl in the coming months.
Anyways, going back to vinyl does seem a bit of a step back, I’ve gotten used to the convenience and tricks with Serato, but there’s a lot of gems I never managed to get off of those nice black platters and into 1’s and 0’s.

This one starts out with some nice drum’n’bass before settling into some hip hop via dancehall. Had to drop a bit of Mobb Deep after reading about the latest sample discovery (check the anatomy of a sample). Then dropped a few off of Ghostface Killah’s recent Apollo Kids album, which I’m groovin’ on of late.

This week, DJ Cosm drops by the studio to talk about his recent solo project. The DJ/Producer for local act Dragon Fli Empire has just dropped his debut full length, entitled Time and Space and popped in to chat about the album and his upcoming CD release party. The album features top notch beats and heavy hitting guests such as Craig G, Insight, Prince Po in addition to (relatively) local talent such Kazmega, Metawon, Cam the Wizzard, Touch, and Nato. Go buy it!

Definitely feeling in a mellow mood this week, a decision was made to keep the BPMs on the slower side of things for the most part, although I did flirt with some more uptempo stuff towards the middle of the show. Couldn’t really help myself because I’m loving the Sinbad remix of Ty’s Heart is Breaking so much recently. Managed to get myself back into relax mode by the end of the show though. Still, any show 
where I can play Massive Attack’s Teardrop (which holds special significance for me) and some Portishead is a pretty fun show in my books. Also, don’t sleep on the Jamie XX vs Gil Scott Heron collabo which started off the show – Personally I think the whole album is an improvement on Heron’s original.

No show for the 10th, as I was still in Oregon.
This week’s show saw me starting off by paying my respects to the recently departed Melvin Sparks and Nate Dogg.
Then we rolled through some recent and not so recent hip hop and stuff.

In March, I took a road trip down to southern Oregon for a couple of weeks. Staring down the barrel of an 18 hour drive, I figured I’d best make a mix to speed things along. Speed things along, indeed. This mix had me pushing my little jalopy much faster than I probably should have (this, and the latest work form Cobblestone Jazz also). Hopefully it can do the same for you.
