Lot of mixes surfacing lately. Here’s another good one from the homie DJ Suma in Houston. As a producer and DJ, Suma has been breaking new ground with various musical styles for many years as a veteran member of Soular Grooves and the Rebel Crew.

Always with a strong ear for reggae and dub sounds, Suma’s latest mix, LuvSIK, gets deep into the varied sounds of Charlie Brown’s Teacher Dubstep:

Jamaica been getting a lot of love in my life the past few days, so I was pleased to wake up today after a long (and much needed) nap and find this gem.

NY’s Peter Gunn has just posted a dope mix of Reggae 12″ records that he’s been collecting. In his words:

did a mix of reggae 12″s from 1976 onwards…. (as far as i know there are none from previous to 76!)… been really digging on the dub styles you hear on 12″s, as opposed to albums or 7″s, it’s a totally different approach… there is this window from like 76-79 where you get real roots style, but in a 12″ format… two nice tracks on the Guiding Star riddim here…

He made this as part of a promo to secure a new gig in Brooklyn, which you can read about here. I def gotta make it to that.

touch&feel:radio is back!

After a three-year hiatus, DJ LIL TIGER has brought the radio podcast he started with MR. VISH back to life. And to celebrate the resurrection, he’s put together an hourlong Funky House (aka UK Funky) mix:

Full playlist and more info available at www.touchandfeel.org:

touch&feel:radio is a podcast founded by MR. VISH and DJ LIL TIGER that features a dirty-style blend of various types of soulful urban music from around the world. Genres include: Funky House/UK Funky, UK Garage, 2-Step, Broken Beat, Dancehall, Reggae, Soul, Grime, Jungle/Drum and Bass, Hip-Hop, House, Soca and whatever else suits our souls.

We began this little project in L.A. back in August of 2005, but life put the brakes on things a year later when Lil Tiger moved to NY to start a new life, and Mr. Vish moved back to Houston to attend to his family.

After a long break, though, it’s time to bring this baby back and get the music flowing once more. Thanks for sticking with us. Much more to come.

Join the touch&feel:radio facebook page to keep track of updates on the show.

My man LP of the mighty G13 SOUND INTERNATIONAL has been flooding my inbox since the start of the year with ill soca tunes that he picked up before, during and after hitting up this year’s T&T Carnival (I am so jealous). LP and Double L have been championing the soca scene for years with their Home for Carnival mix CD series (I have all four so far and they’re all slammin’), and they recently put together a quick mix of the latest soca jams for Mad Decent Radio.

Double L describes the mix as:

… an in-your-face, 30-minute high-octane Soca mix which only us at G13 Intn’l can execute & deliver as such.

These dudes are really serious about their soca, and they know their shit top to bottom. Peep the mix below and hear for yourself:

DJ Neil Armstrong‘s Sweeet mix CD is a gotdamn classic.

We here at BuhbOmp have been waiting a long time for the follow-up, and after three years, finally, Sweeet Part 2 is on the horizon. (We give him some slack for the long delay, since he’s been busy touring the world as Jay-Zs DJ, Barack-ing the house for our newest President, and generally just conquering the world).

The Sweeet series is a portal into Neil’s softer, lovier side. In his words:

It’s on the lovey dovey tip like the 1st one, with that style that you’ve gotten used to me bringing. Official Release date TBA soon…

You can catch a sampler of the new mix below:
[audio: http://www.5thplatoon.com/audio/sweeetpart2sampler.mp3|titles=DJ Neil Armstrong – Sweeet Part 2 Sampler]
** Click here to download the Sweeet Part 2 sampler **

We’ll keep you posted on the official release.

[ Note: This shouldn’t be confused with his Bittersweet series, which is a different beast that we featured here a while back ].
