The House List

This past weekend the Hip-Hop community worldwide got a nice shot in the arm watching RZA and Primo trade joints as stars and fans alike vibed in quarantined unison. In this episode of The House List, Boston's highly respected, long established, DJ and producer 7L (Czarface, 7L & Esoteric)delivers an all vinyl, all Hip-Hop DJ mix in it's true form. A great companion piece for all y'all. He takes some classic yet lesser known tracks/white labels from the mid and late 90's and lays it down cassette tape mix style. This would be one of those joints never to leave your car stereo or walkman, with mad flavors from acts like The Beatnuts, Shades of Brooklyn, Scientifik, Ground Floor, The Legion and much more. This is a MUST listen for any head of any age, classical DJ mix from one of the modern greats.

Soulful, Spiritual, Funky and so much more. I thought it would be fitting to drop this on Easter weekend. Check this very cool all vinyl DJ mix by underground legend Oxygen. Multitalented emcee, producer and record collector, Oxygen has been creating for years. Known in inner circles for his wealth of musical knowledge and very impressive record collection he was the perfect edition to our over expanding array of DJ mixes. He brought together an awesome selection of spiritually uplifting song that anyone with a Soul can get into - no matter what part of the world you are in. Make sure that if you know folks also into Soul, Funk and especially Gospel, that you send this to them!

Patrick Luca runs some incredibly cool record labels based out of the Canary Islands in Spain. Saft, Pulp, and Born. Actually, unrelated he put me on to an album I have listened to at this point nearly thousands of times Joan Bibiloni's 'Born' album. God, I love that album. I connected with Saft to coordinate a very cool EP series with Dam-Funk entitled Architecture. We did one in 2016 and a second in 2018. House-oriented Dam-Funk music, super dope. Anyway, he releases tons of high quality music. Great taste. He put together this all vinyl mix of 90's House selects. It is a journey, if you are stuck in your house right now this is what will get you up. Use this as a battery pack. It's uptempo and super soulful. Check all these out: https://saft.bandcamp.com/merch - the bio says it all "Spanish Deep House label run by Patrick Luca" ENJOY!

Trav is an old friend of mine, we used to live in the same building in Brooklyn back in the day. Many know him from his group Gym Class Heroes as well as his countless solo mega-hits. But at the end of the day he is a hardcore music aficionado. So, when I asked if he'd be down for the mix project he happily obliged. Actually this is a rare live DJ set he did in Dubai very recently. It's club ready and vibed out. Feels like you right there in the middle of the action. A nice addition to the growingly diverse DJ mix catalog I've been curating for you! Please take a moment to subscribe and share this and all of our mixes freely!

This is a nice new edition to the growing stellar line-up of exclusive DJ mixes. Another All Vinyl jumpoff - this one recorded JUST NOW in the planet Brooklyn by Mister Cam-Run. Cam has DJ'ed with some true titans of sound like Sir Norman Jay, John Morales, GE-OLOGY, Mase from De La, M-Phazes and many more. I've had the pleasure of hearing and seeing Cam spin around NYC many times. I met him through a my longtime homeboy Sean Rowlands, they held down a dope ass radio show on The Lot radio for a while now. Native to Melbourne, AUS, I asked Cam if he'd be open to put together a DJ mix for the podcast. Now the guy has many great selections in the Funk / Soulful genre - but I knew that Cam also held down some Reggae style gigs in BK so asked if he'd be down to pull some records in the dub / roots variety. He came through with some joints! This is just what I needed. Perfect to wake up to or jus' roll a spliff of any size with one goal .. relaxing. Escapism. Dig deep into. It's great. You'll LOVE this. Please send this to ANY friends you know into tunes from the Island. Especially All my Brooklyn heads! Please subscribe to the podcast on whatever format you listen.

Years ago on my old record label Female Fun, I dropped a mixtape from my friend Dooley O. It was called The Beat Segment. Now, the Beat Segment started as a cable access TV show or a VHS video magazine. Dooley has been involved in all things hip-hop from the jump - as a producer, rapper, DJ, graf artist and painter, videographer/director and more. He bleeds art. He has sick records and has been digging for years, way before it was ever even trendy. I asked him very nicely to produce an all new Beat Segment for the podcast and he obliged. I appreciate it and I think you're gonna like this. It's mad soulful, political, and just very timely. Listen to it when you bump it, some good records in there! Please send it to people into funk, soul, rare groove and all of that. Doesn't matter where they are or how old, just put them onto this. We need you the listener to help get the word out!! Be safe and ENJOY!

Early alumni of the show (episode 11!) Andrew Broder (aka Fog) created this therapeutic all vinyl mix just days ago exclusively for the House List and I gotta tell ya, it's a pleasant offering. Subtle, meditative and measured with a really unique crosshatch of genre and intention. This is a good one to get lost within. I'd recommend it for staring out of windows, going for short government mandated walks, resting, drawing, cooking, cleaning and just about anything else. Again, all mixed straight from Broder's vinyl collection in Minneapolis, MN. He has a vast catalog of amazing original music too - I highly recommend checking out - andrewbroder.bandcamp.com - and supporting or streaming his recent projects. If you may not be familiar at all with Broder's work - he has collaborated with the likes of Bon Ever, Serengeti, WHY?, Andrew Bird, Doseone, and many others.

House List podcast alumni J-Zone is the latest on board for our ongoing DJ mix series and he brought those heaters. Zone has been making strides with his own Funk project The Du-Rites and continuously building his rep in the drumming world - and those influences are surely available in this mix. We get crackling drums and boppin' baselines of that 60s and early 70's soul and funk right here. This is that up in the morning motivation kind of mix, or that late night groove. It's a head nodder. Make sure that you go back to our original interview all the way back on Episode 57! Don't sleep on his original music (especially if you dig this kind of vibe) hit https://j-zone.bandcamp.com and drop a couple bucks!! Also, please do us a favor and help spread the word on this show. It is 200% word of mouth and I want you to send this link to any friends you may think dig!! I mean that. Thanks for listening!
