It’s Sunday. In Autumn. As per usual in this country, it’s getting dark by 3pm, and the only sensible thing to do is settle down with a brandy, a quality smoke (much like Jimmy Saville in the picture on the left), and some good music.
This is by far the best way to offset the gloom of the wind and rain that appear through you double-glazing.

Now, Phillies aren’t cheap, and bottles of Hennessy dont grow on trees in these credit crunching times, so I’m not going to give you either of them. What I can do is supply the good music mentioned above.

This downtempo mix is aptly entitled “FeetUp“, and is a Sunday-afternoon-esque mix including a couple of Blue Note numbers, along with a touch of BoomBip and Portishead, via Massive Attack, and Pete Rock, and a dash of George Benson.

A full tracklisting is below, and you can download the mix itself here.

Best get to the shop for those Phillies.

Yep, this weeks radio sees a more-than-healthy portion of our Soul Food radio show being delivered straight from the hotplate.

Serving up the hip hop, funk, and breaks will be Blunt resident Doug, along with not one, but two (!) very special (and exclusive) guest sets from DJ Prolifik, and Mr Phipson.

This one’s sure to be tasty, and have you coming back for seconds.

Blunt Beats Radio presents Soul Food, with Doug, and special guests DJ Prolifik and Mr Phipson. Live from 8pm Uk time, Wed 12th Nov. www.bluntbeats.com/radio

Last night’s A.F.R.O. radio show was certainly a top-notch collection of tunes, broadcast from Casa Cleanface. Heavyweight drum and bass, breaks, and dubstep were the order of the night, with a blinder of a set from our good friend and special guest Seizmic, alongside Blunt Residents Agent M and Marcus Hurley.

A (partial) tracklisting is below. (I’ve had a terrible internet connection today which hasn’t helped matters, and I’m waiting for some emails regarding the other tunes played. I’ll update this post as and when I get the info)

Dont forget all of the show is available for download for the next 7 days via the listen again feature on our radio page. Nice.
