We took a little break for the holidays but we're back at it! Up next, two boys from Dublin who caught our eye (or ear?) recently with a really impressive EP on Kyoku Records, LONG ISLAND SOUND. The standout track of the EP for us has to be Delusions, sampling Shelda by Smoke, it has enough legs to hold it's own in the club or if you're just chilling on the couch Sunday afternoon.
We really enjoyed their vibe and listened to some of their slower, hip-hop inspired house DJ sets, so we asked them to throw down a mix for us. Some words from them below...
So we were super hyped to be asked to contribute a mix to the series and to be in there amongst some DJ's and producers that we really admire. For this mix, we tried to fit in a whole bunch of different styles that we're into, but still not be too all-over-the-place. Sampling is something we're hugely interested in, so we threw in lots of hip hop, and also some more recent house beats that were inspired by hip hop stuff. We kinda wanted to put out a mixtape that suits morning/afternoon listening but also include some tracks that we play in da club! Hope you enjoy!
You can listen to the new EP HERE or just go ahead and buy the record on Juno HERE.
