DJ-Kicks from MCDE out now.

Nothing on the free download front today or related to actual kicks or our DJ Sneaks mix series, just a recommendation to go out and buy something well worth your hard earned cash. Every now and again a mix CD is released that is really worth your dollar and The DJ Kicks series from K7 seems to nail this purchase piece every time.



The latest in the series coming from Stuttgart's Danilo Plessow AKA Motor City Drum Ensemble, and as this mix shows Danilo is one hell of a quality DJ and producer. We had had the pleasure of meeting him and checking out his set at Trouble Vision a few months back and we can also say he is one hell of a nice guy.



His DJ kicks brings together a collection of his standardly quality house selections as well as keeping things in with the "classic DJ Kicks" mix style seamlessly incorporating elements of Jazz, reggae and afrobeat. Popped this mix on the player for the first time a few days ago and i can't take it off. One of the most refreshing mixes I've heard in a while. Pick up your copy from the web site here as well as in all good record shops and download stores.

We've posted a couple of the opening choice gems and MCDE's own track L.O.V.E. from YouTube below and the mix track listing below that to entice you even more. There is also a DJ Kicks Ep as part of the release featuring two of MCDEs own productions from the mix available on digital release now and forth coming on 12" (Also on K7 Records). Have a listen and go buy them if you have a few spare pennies.

Also, for the Loveboxing crew, catch him this Saturday in the NYC Downlow stage.
