Manchester is shit

So i managed to interview Will Holland from Quantic last week, I did this interview on behalf of straightup.com.au, based over in Australia. Mr Holland was a bit surprised as he was expecting a call from Australia but instead he got me in Manchester, ah well... You can read up on the results here

Its been far too hot over here in Manchester to be playing any hiphop this week, the sun is out, and summer has finally arrived, so this week have have been digging deep into my collection to unearth some lovely latin and soul, perfect for the sunshine. Managed to unearth a few gems along the way, so sit back relax and enjoy some sounds from Tom and Joyce, The Masters at work, Roy Ayers and err... Paul Simon. No I don't have sunstroke, trust me, this Paul Simon edit is a slab of mighty fine balearic pie...
