Deep Soulful Mix

Photo by Ryan Blackman

The idea for this mix has been floating around inside my head for a good long while now. I wanted to have something more akin to a mixtape than a deejay mix for bedroom purposes, both sleeping and otherwise. Don’t expect much in the way of mixing, I mostly just segued between jams in the most unintrusive manner. It’s all about setting a nice mood. Much thanks to the boys Juju & Jordash for hosting this one. When they asked me to do a mix for their site, I knew it was finally time to bust this one out. I hope you all enjoy it! Also, cheers to my man Ryan Blackman for the dope picture at the top of the post. Check out his pictures here. Very dope stuff. Thanks!
