Dirty Funky Nasty Bad

Let’s start with the title of this mix, “Dirty Funky Nasty Bad” - a long-time friend of mine with a great sense of humour would keep all of us howling with laughing, doing bits and saying random shit dropped this line in one of those moments and it’s stuck with me for decades (thanks Kento).

I love raw-sounding music; not overproduced or mixed, just pure edgy sonic bliss, which is what I based this playlist around- in yer face funk.

• dirty (raw)

• funky (poppin' groove that doesn’t let up)

• nasty (pushing the levels a little hard to induce sweet saturation)

• bad (this jam is one bad mofo).
