Radski - "The Funked-Out Moog"


This gem right here is part of a mixtape trade that Radski and I just made. He called me up and asked if I could hit him with a classic hip-hop mix for him to bump on the plane ride to Europe (he leaves tomorrow, so let's all wish the man a safe flight). In return, he said he'd make a mix for me of ANYTHING that I wanted. I thought about it for a couple days, took the man's RIDICULOUS record collection into consideration, and told him that I wanted a "weird, funky MOOG mix."

This, of course, was no problem for Radski.

A little background information for those who don't live here in the Music City...Radski is a drummer/DJ/funk-collector of the highest order. That plane ride I mentioned is due to the fact that he's drumming for The Dynamites on their Europe tour, which runs until I believe 7/22. When we were having our monthly funk/soul throwdowns at Bound'ry and later Cabana (RIP Funky Good Time), everyone in the crew could count on Radski to play a couple joints we had NEVER heard before. I remember one time at Bound'ry he told me, "Man I'm drunk. I'm about to hit 'em off with the MOOG SET."

This mix is like his drunk moog set on steroids. Absolutely off the wall and SUPER funky. No tracklist for this one....and to all you producers who might be listening to this mix....TAKE YOUR HAND OFF THE 'RECORD' BUTTON. Go dig up these gems for yourself.

Cheers, Radski. This is fantastic.

Now you guys ALREADY KNOW that this was made with all vinyl. That's just how we do things around here.

Until next time,

PS: Anybody want to hear my classic hip-hop mix? Let me know.
