August 30, 2020It’s mostly tunes with summer related words in the title, but there are a few tracks I’ve put in simply because I remember hearing them in a field somewhere when the sun came up… Pure vibes here, recorded in early July off the back of the Solstice as part of the Seasons Change series. As our favourite DJ there’s not…
December 29, 2019Following on from Paul and myself’s offerings, Jimmy Monsta Funk gives us a stellar selection from his own stacks of wax, closing off Rollin’ With The 9s strong. Beginning in 1929 he manages to go across jazz, pop, funk, electronic, house and pirate radio. I’ve said this before and I’ll say it again, the dude is crazy deep with records.…
April 28, 2019120+ records (and one digital track), two turntables and six hours of mixing recorded live over four sessions from Jimmy Monsta Funk: this is 2018 All Over Again. As far as things to look forward to throughout the year the yearly wrap-up of tracks from JMF is certainly up there and he’s served it up beautifully once again. An eclectic…
November 26, 2018Jimmy Monsta Funk’s international crew recently called him up to do a mix for episode 19 of their podcast series. The aptly titled Jimmy Monsta Funk on a Detroit Trip from Nightflight Radio is 39 cuts of wax in just over 100 minutes. Proper house delivered, as always from JMF, with just two turntables and a crate full of wax. Full track list…
June 25, 2018A little sad to be bringing this to a close but mostly over-joyed to be sharing the fourth and last installment of Jimmy Monsta Funk’s record wrap of 2017. And in a series that started with house and techno and has slowly been getting more eclectic this is a cracking finish he’s brought us around to. Digging in to his purchases…
June 12, 2018Off the back of Trample The Dust Down and No Hard Borders we’re up for the third installment of Jimmy Monsta Funk’s year in records with Damn You Space Colonists. In a series that has thus far pushed us across the spectrum of house and techno releases from 2017, part 3 of 4 draws together plates of similar vibrations, regardless of…
June 4, 2018Here we go with Part 2 of 4 from Jimmy Monsta Funk’s mixes drawn from 2017 releases – Trample The Dust Down. Following on from No Hard Borders he’s kicked us off with an updated Loleatta Holloway classic before taking us firmly through the sounds of proper techno, Chicago house and live European club joints that bump. Enough esoteric pieces and reflips to…
May 27, 2018Stoked to be presenting a new series of mixes from Jimmy Monsta Funk. In what seems to be an annual occurrence (check Mo Last Year and You Asked For It for 2015 and 2016 respectively) JMF has handed down his 2017 wrap-up split across four mixes. This is the year in records – a selection of tracks that are all releases, re-releases…
January 26, 2017Jimmy Monsta Funk never stops blowing us away. Last year’s live sets, rave year tributes (1991) and insane levels of record appreciation across the board showed why he remains as our favourite DJ. We’ve been sitting on this for way too long, and will or won’t be adding to it to complete the track lists on the last three sections…
January 3, 2017Lists of things to buy and check out are always good provided they come from the right people, and Jimmy Monsta Funk is still top of that list. He’s dropped some proper heat on us this year and we’re still sitting on about six hour of mixes comprising of wax from 2015 that’ll be up shortly. A lot of good…
