Four Corners 2022: Asia – JMF v Kamikaze v KP


With the ownership of land and culture being at the forefront of some leader’s minds right now, we’ve decided to concentrate on territories for our Seasons Changes mixes this year. To create a quartet of offerings, we’ve gone back to the old concept of the Four Corners of the Earth, with our corners consisting of Africa, The Americas, Asia and…

Four Corners 2022: The Americas – JMF v Kamikaze


Working around the globe in line with Equinoxes and Solstices, Jimmy Monsta Funk and Kamikaze continue bringing together a collection of records to represent a different corner of the globe. These sessions are epic. If you missed Africa (https://awkmo.co/four-corners-2022-africa-kamikaze-v-jmf/) I highly recommend going back to check it. Defining “The Americas” sonically is a difficult task. With the USA arguably being…

Four Corners 2022: Africa – Kamikaze v JMF


I don’t know how I could’ve been any later on posting this, the first edition of the annual equinoxical rituals from Awkward Movements crew. The fact that part 2 for 2022 is just days away prompted me to lock myself away for a few minutes and share what’s become one of my most important listening pieces for the year so…

JMF v Kamikaze – Seasons Change 2021: Water

JMF v Keith P v Kamikaze – Seasons Change 2021: Fire


The Seasons Change series has been a blast this year, a beacon for us to come together at a time that life sometimes gets in the way of records. With the most recent Equinox (Spring for me, Autumnal for the Northern folk) we’ve rolled out our offering to the element Gods in the form of a Fire show. ‘Fire’ was…

Kamikaze v JMF – Seasons Change 2021: Wind


Here we are again, the next instalment of Seasons Change for 2021. We convene every Equinox and Solstice to welcome in the new season, and this year have themed the mixes around the four elements: earth, wind fire and water. I’m out of the picture this round with the birth of the latest addition to the Pettinger clan (welcome to…

Kamikaze v JMF v Keith P – Seasons Change 2021: Earth


Happy equinox all. For Seasons Change this year we’re looking at the equinoxes and the solstices taking place across 2021, splitting the starting points for our sonic offerings between the four elements of Earth, Wind, Fire and Water.  And while Jimmy Monsta Funk and Kamikaze aka Paul Ackroyd have never stopped peddling the goods, it’s definitely been a minute since…

JMF v KK: Seasons Change – Bleak Midwinter


Let’s not be the ones to dwell on what we already know about the year that’s been, the year ahead and this time of year in general. Let us instead, my friends, focus on the goodness that has once again been delivered when the two record fiends we love the most come together. Seasons Change has become my favourite way…

All My Records Episode 16


The brutal realisation that I wouldn’t play most of my record collection again before I die prompted me to start doing All My Records. As the name suggests this is is me playing all my records by order that they’ve ended up in my shelves: left to right, top to bottom, how they’re currently sitting. Single deck show, one off…

JMF v KK: Seasons Change – Peace Day


With the equinox occurring on the 21st of September, one day before Peace Day, we didn’t have to look far to find a direction for this edition of  Seasons Change. Jimmy Monsta Funk and Kamikaze have collaborated beautifully around a theme of ‘peace’, playing records that not only play off their own selections but also complimenting those of the other.…
