Handsworth Riot Mix

Deep house set recorded live in London in 2006. An eclectic mix of afro-house, New York underground house and soulful vocal house. Inspired by the antics that gwarn in Brixton, Bristol (St. Pauls) and yes, Handsworth in Birmingham, England. Handsworth was the site of many riots that went down during the Thatcher/Reagan era in the 1980s. Hence the title of the mix. It is also the hometown of Reggae's much revered Steel Pulse. They later recorded an album called Handsworth Revolution. Find that album if you can, it's a gem. In the mean time, gotta have house! Much to enjoy here, another voice in the Diasporic Dialogue.

Birmingham (UK) Bass Mix

A mix recorded live (2006) in Birmingham, UK, it captures my respect for the Black British sound and it's range. Drum n' Bass (Jungle to some), never really had a real chance in America. It wasn't commercial enough to receive the attention it needed to thrive and survive. Quite honestly, I believe it takes a certain kind of intelligence to be understood, in the sense that it's not only one of the many voices of the African Diaspora, but that it's geographic location creates the unique sound/story. Fortunately, I went to the UK, in search of the sound, with the mission to bring it home. Drum N Bass is to England, what GoGo is to Washington D.C. The sounds of both places are undiscovered by the global ear, upheld by the communities that breathe it and respected by those outside of it that recognize its significance! Take a listen and explore!

A mellow ride through the vaults of the WildSeed Sound Library. This mix was created in the first Brooklyn apartment that I lived in when I moved to NYC from Atlanta in 2005. It communicates the reflective nature of transition. God is Change.
