SOUNDTRACK SOUL Episode 15 features the first ever official soundtrack mix from the phenomenal NYC-based top producer and selector DJ SPINNA!!!!

This exclusive sixty-minute action-packed set features two dozen rare and classic blaxploitation soundtrack vibes from Weldon Irvine, Marvin Gaye, The Blackbyrds, Curtis Mayfield, Edwin Starr, Willie Hutch, Roy Ayers, Joe Simon, Johnny Pate, the Bar-Kays and more.

DJ Spinna is something of an anomaly in music. A humbling example of what it takes to truly succeed within the framework of multiple fields. With a steadfast work ethic, an obsessively extensive vinyl library and the willingness to pursue the full extents of his roots (Funk, Soul R&B and Jazz), foundation (Hip-Hop) and future (Electronic/Dance music) without any restraints

It's true that there are other like-minded DJ/Producers in the world comparable to DJ Spinna, but for the most part, they choose a genre and master it. Ask them to flip another variety with the same intense knowledge and sleek-savvy and you’ll be hard pressed to find someone that can do it to Spinna’s extent.  We are thrilled to have the first ever official soundtrack mix from the mega-talented worldwide superstar selector.
