Green Velvet – Unshakable [Album Review]
For a lesser producer, an album consisting entirely of collaborations might hint at artistic insecurity. Not so for Curtis Jones. Unshakable finds the Chicago veteran at his best, exploring new sonic ground with his talented contemporaries, while ensuring his own artistic hand can be heard in every one of his album's 13 tracks.
Good Morning Mix – Fatboy Slim’s Xmas Mixtape 2011
Some of you may be using your holidays to light the menorah, trim the tree, or eat an obscene amount of peppermint bark but Fatboy Slim makes us mixes. Last year, Norm released a free mix to celebrate Christmas cheer and we're taking another listen this year as a lead-up to this year's holidays. This is a DJ mix in the traditional sense; Norm throws in the old and new, telling a story along the way. We've got Queen, Riva Starr, Beardyman, Azealia Banks, Afrojack, Bart B More & Harvard Bass, Grandmaster Flash, and Moby all woven together into a neat little Fatboy Slim tapestry of sound. It's high energy and never misses a beat -- take a listen for yourself below.
