Words by Deejay Theory

Welcome back to another edition of #MixtapeMondays. The summer might be over but the vibes cyan dun with extra large mixes from Miami, Germany and The Bay. Run tune below

Black Chiney, OVO Sound Radio Episode 5: Pree what happens when the 6 meets the 876 and two major powerhouses in dancehall and hip hop combine. I’m talking about Black Chiney and Drake and company’s OVO Sound label coming together on the Beats 1 platform for a unique ride through the crates of both camps, with of course a barrage of dubplates, customs and remixes from Black Chiney. Keep it locked because this is a big one. Stream below, tracklist here

So Shifty, Diplo & Friends Mix (2015 Carnival Special): Thankfully one of our favorite DJ/producer teams So Shifty haven’t had their soundcloud terminated yet and are still able to share their goods with the world. Prime example being their latest mix cooked up for Diplo & Friends on BBC Radio 1 highlighting the most necessary soca singles, riddims and remixes of 2015. This is a quintessential Carnival mix for this year, and a healthy cure for Carnival Tabanca no doubt. Stream below, tracklist and download here

Deejay Theory, We Got This Mix Series Vol.22: Inspired by a recent trip to Bali, yours truly put together this one for the good folks at West Coast collective We Got This for their monthly mix series. Some big tunes and exclusives – current and otherwise – from dancehall to dembow with various wavy vibes in between. After the 48:00 mark the homies Hood Prisms step in to wrap things up for the last 30. Far out. Stream below, tracklist here
