Agent M - Groundbeat Session download

Well, seeing as everyone else has pulled their finger out and uploaded some music of late, I figured I’d better do the same.

What I’ve given you is a recording of my set from the launch night of our recent “Groundbeat” (jazz influenced) radio night.

It’s a selection of jazz-influenced hip hop sounds, old and new, with a few Blue Note classics thrown in for good luck (recorded live, bumps and all!)

The Long And Winding Road

Journeys seem to be the order of the day at the moment. I’ve just come back from the coast, and people I’ve been talking to have been travelling about all over the shop, from Berlin to Bangkok to Brooklyn, to everywhere inbetween. We’ve been busy here at Blunt HQ ourselves of late, dipping in and around the Home Counties and the Capital at various gigs/parties/other such social events.

So, travelling seems to be the order of the day at the moment. It’s probably as time is moving towards summertime, and we’re starting to step out of hibernation, as the days get longer and the beats get blunted. Keeping with this thought, we’ve decided to do our live radio show this week on our popular Destination Midnight theme. As most of you know, this is where we give our Djs extended sets, to allow them to play a personal, indulgent, and wandering selection of music. The sort of stuff, in the kind of mixes, that our more conventional shows may not allow.

It’s gonna be 2 djs, 2 hours apiece, and if our track record is anything to go by on this night, a wide ranging selection of selection of music. Past shows have included jazz, dub, breakbeat, electro, drum and bass, hip hop, funk, and soul (to name but a few genres).

DJs on the night will be Blunt Residents Doug and Agent M. Expect heavy hip hop sounds, latin beats, jazzy grooves, and electronic beats all mashed together.


Destination Midnight - Wed 30th April - Live from 8pm UK time with Blunt Beats Residents Doug and Agent M - www.bluntbeats.com/radio
