Global warming ain’t all bad. The weathers been scorching for this time of year here at Blunt HQ. In fact, we’ve been able to have the first of our infamous barbecues already, and believe me, that’s no mean feat in April, in the UK.

(Big up to the Riot Control crew in Brooklyn for providing the soundtrack to this meat-eating fest!)

Anyway, once the sun comes out, so does the reggae! It’s natural cause and effect. Physics in action, my friends. DJ Hughes has made musical reference to this equation in his latest creation. The Sleng Teng mixtape. It’s a selection of tunes on the Sleng Teng riddim, and mixed and blended by Mr Hughes himself.
