The Dan Digs Show 047: New Mount Kimbie & James Blake, Rapper Big Pooh & Nottz, Soulwax, Tycho, Roman Flugel – Dan in the DJ Mix
Show number 47!
As always, the latest and greatest in leftfield beats and electronic soul, plus interviews with my favorite artists for your listening pleasure every Sunday night on Dash 1 at DashRadio.com.
We never (or almost never!) play the same song twice on this show, so consider it your weekly update of all things new and good in soulful and beat-driven music!
This week saw a two-hour mix of brand new music from Mount Kimbie & James Blake, Rapper Big Pooh & Nottz, Soulwax, Tycho, and Roman Flugel!
Our Track of the Week this week was courtesy of Airbird (Joel Ford of Ford & Lopatin) & Napolian (producer Ian Evans) with their amazing new future beat cut “J. Park.”
And that’s not all. Our Blast from the Past was the incredible, all-you-can-scat “You Can Do It (Baby)” by Nuyorican Soul featuring George Benson, taken from their self-titled album, Nuyorican Soul; my very favorite album of all time.
Speaking of which, my brand new Losangelican Soul remix of Nuyorican Soul’s Rotary Connection cover “I Am the Black Gold of the Sun” got its radio debut! (Download the track for free here.)
