I was in a pretty funky mood for today's show and it came across in my playlist. I ended up playing loads of #funk with more than just a little support from some #deephouse, #nudisco and #indie.  'Track of the Week' for this week is an incredible mashup of Queen Vs Outkast / AC/DC / Snoop Dogg / The Beatles and Crowded House.

Plus, classic HipHop tunes from Chad Jackson (Hear The Drummer Get Wicked) and Jurassic 5 (Concrete Schoolyard). All this as well as the usual choice cuts of brand new funk, nudisco, indie, breaks, deephouse and folk. Not to forget a jazz / funk / dub version of the classic 80s rock track from Berlin 'Take My Breath Away'. Want some Elvis Presley? He made it onto the playlist as well.

The show featured the usual blend of brand new hiphop, funk, indie, breaks, beats, downtempo and nudisco alongside classic tunes from The Stone Roses, The Beatles and The Chemical Brothers. I even mixed together a breakbeat version of The Prodigy's 'Poison' into the classic 1979 soul / disco Randy Crawford hit 'Street Life'. Top notch!
