Two for the weekend

Two great tracks that have been on repeat all week - some new beats from the UK and a classic from Studio One, Jamaica...

First up is the latest offering from Well Rounded Records who have been causing some serious heat with releases from Deadboy and Hackman. It's an exciting time for UK club music as dubstep, house, garage and bass music morph into a new sound which is pretty hard to pigeonhole. Donga & Blake's new release sums this up with some sublime deep house vibes, funky 2-step beats and a cheeky nod to Detroit.



Next up is a classic from the vaults of Studio One from Otis Gayle. We love the reggae soul at Nos Def and this one goes out to everyone who made it down to the last party to catch DJ Young Jeff do his thing!

A summer classic to help you survive this heat ...
10 days til the next NOS DEF ! ! !



Coming up on August 14th to Nos Def a very special guest DJ and master selekta:
da man they call "Young Jeff" ! ! !

Although perhaps mainly known as a dj of reggae 45s, Young Jeff has always been open to a wide range of sounds, and has been a keen crate-digger for original soul and funk tunes, through to house, jungle, dubstep and more. as well as playing regularly in Tokyo, Jeff has played across Japan (Osaka, Okinawa etc) and overseas, including the big soul and reggae weekend festival "Kings and Queens" in Hamburg, Germany.

In the year 2000 in Tokyo, Jeff set up the downbeat imprint PLAY label, releasing CD compilations (with all-exclusive tracks by Fila Brazillia, Depth Charge, Paul St Hilaire, DJ Spooky, Pressure Drop, and more) and artist albums by Susumu Yokota, The Mighty Quark, DJ Spooky vs Twilight Circus and special Japan-only releases of fresh tracks by the legendary Sly and Robbie and France’s Seven Dub.

At Nos Def, Jeff will dig through his record crates to provide a pleasing but deep selection of summer cuts across a range of styles both old and new ...

This is one is going to be hot and hope to see you there ;-)
