MachineDrum - MixOfTheWeek

Travis Stewart a.k.a. MachineDrum is one of those producers I've had in my 'check-later-pile" for quite a while. Well, my loss. The other day we got this mixtape in our inbox and first now I realize what I've been missing out on.

First off the choice of tunes very much appeals the early heads of jungle/drum'n'bass kickin' of with what sounds like a '96 remix (in a good way!) of Christoffer William's classic banger I'm dreaming off the New Jack City soundtrack. Deeper in the mix he reveals some of his upcoming releases e.g. Heavyweight (31 minutes in) which has such an hypnotic groove somewhere in between Aril Brikha's Groove La Chord and 2 Live Crew's Me so horny if that makes any sense? Add Mark Pritchard and a whole pile of other electrofunk producers in the mix and you'll get what might be the most refreshing mixtape of the year so far. Get it below!
