Downshift Radio

Really enjoying this mix from NYC's Dan Bino on Downshift radio. That's some big room cheese I think we can all agree on. Comments for tracklist.

Bag Raiding


I finally got to see Rainbo Video play last night. It was the revolution. What a manic performance and just so much fun! It was presented at gabba speed with a bmore beat, and it made my head spin and I couldn't stop smiling for an hour after I got home. The video projections were outstanding and sometimes hilarious. The mixing was some of the finest I ever heard - loops seamlessly woven together, all of a sudden, Seal's voice gets chopped up and looped over a beat, just crazy stuff like that. It pretty much confirmed what I already knew...Rainbo Video is going to be a force in the Chicago music scene and he's one of the most talented new producers out there. My highest accolades.

So this song here is called Smoking, it's by Bag Raiders, and it's the best Bag Raiders song in existence. I heard everybody gettin' all hot and bothered by Shooting Stars but the Cheech sample kills it and I could listen to this chipper beat all day long! You know, that stuff that's tied to a stick!

Super Viral Brothers


The first minute of this track is about the best thing I've heard all year. Ghetto trance indeed. Swedish music, with only 9 million residents, outperforms the rest of the world.
