Big Crown Radio

April Showers is a 60 minute mix by Chicago’s Dead Best Friends. The tunes were selected and recorded in a single evening a few weeks before COVID-19 shut down everything. Light one up - and lean back, this mix is a perfect soundtrack for lonely hearts in lonely times.

60 minutes or so, of soul... not focusing on any particular style... the kinda set you might catch, out in the real world...

A nice mix from our friend Spruzzi, owner of Monorecords in Zurich and heavy duty DJ / collector. Words from the man himself - “I have listened to your radio sets and I have felt your station has more soul than I do... thats why I had grabbed from my dusty 7“ boxes to do a nice special soul set for you!

NYC based DJ / Artist / Designer / Renaissance Woman Miranda Maxwell recorded a mix of old and new tracks she currently has in heavy personal rotation.

This is a part of my collection of sweet and rare soul.

Let the music touch your soul. Close your eyes and listen to the music. This one takes you a cruise on a Sunday afternoon!

“Let The Gods Speak” is a mix from Leon Michels featuring music from around the globe and a few special edits made by El Michels himself. It also includes an unreleased song from El Michels Affair. Hint: it’s the only song on the mix sung in a endangered dialect of Japanese.

Buck Masters, J. S. Buck aka Kevin of Brainstory and Buckleberry Fin aka Brian Jamal Edwards present: 4 Seasons, a sonic interpretation of Spring, Summer, Fall, and Winter. 4 Seasons glides through aural  moods with the weather patterns dictating where to go. From The boisterous and flamboyant colors of spring, to the hot grooves of a beloved summer, onto the soothing and sometimes heartbreaking chills of Fall and Winter, listeners encounter stories and memories captured on wax that have touched both selectors and hopefully the listener as well. 

Kevin and Brian are long time musical collaborators, both out of Rialto, Ca. As a young buck, Kevin learned the art of songwriting through observing Brian write and record his original tunes on a 8 track tape recorder and both got their start as an acoustic duo called Ten Year Gap in around 2005.

This episode comes to you by way of Brasil’s Eduardo Brecho.

Eduardo stopped by Lepse’s crib with a box of 45s and laid down this mix for us. Mostly Samba Soul, and Samba, and Soul. Enjoy.
