44BEATZCAST 25:12
Take a 74 minute break from the madness with 44BEATZCAST 25:12. This mix harmonically splices electronica, rock and soul together with jungle, drum and bass.
25:12 opens with Little Dragon’s “Twice” (Aaron Jerome Remix) then adds some reflections on wellness via Best of French Underground's "Reggae Style" and Bopperson & Bikbaye's "Who Are You?".
Photek remixes Moby’s “Lie Down In Darkness” into a moody soundscape before Pink Floyd’s “Marooned” drifts into cosmic calm. Jens Gad’s “Art Noveau” wraps the opening with worldbeat shimmer.
The mix shifts to emotive reflection with The Flaming Lips & Nell Smith’s remake of Nick Cave's “O Children”, then Bishop Briggs defiantly refuses to back down on “White Flag”. Golden Bug’s “L'effet domino” flips the energy as we tenderly transition into Ursula Rucker's “Wanna”. Vintage soul returns via Shuggie Otis’s “Sweet Thang” before The Egg’s “Walk On the Snow” adds chilled electronica.
Kevin Yost serves up deep house with “In Walked Mr Cool” before David Holmes' “Don't Die Just Yet” adds cinematic flair. T-Power provide a twist of jungle with “Mutant Jazz” giving way to drum and bass courtesy of Reprazent & Roni Size’s “Brown Paper Bag" and Professor Funk & Cnof’s “The River Of Time”. Holy Other’s “Know Where” provides a textured bridge into War’s “Slippin' into Darkness” which concludes 25:12 in a soul-drenched finale.
Enjoy the trip!
