Swedish producer for the likes of Illa J, Hezekiah, Dynamite MC and others, Erik L puts together new and old material, with the help of mixing from Devastate – a Swedish DJ. On Display is filled with B-Boy beats, hip hop style scratching and some future soul claps. With 24 tracks, you will definitely find something to bop your head to. Get those speakers on loud.

Bluey Robinson has been bubbling around for a while since 2009 when he independently released ‘I Know’ and toured around with Tinie Tempah this year. Yet it has not quite happened in the mainstream for him. I don’t think it is due to lack of talent or originality, as I believe he has both and alot more to give, so who knows.
However, now signed to RCA and ready, Bluey recently told me that he is releasing an album in 2011 – which I was glad to hear. In the run up to that day, Bluey dropped his first mixtape/mash up download the other day. He recreates classics like MJ’s ‘Rock with You’ and recent favourite Cee-lo Green’s ‘F*ck You’. There are also features from FS and Ryan Leslie who jump on remixes for the only original track ‘I Know’.
He tweeted: “It’s for any1 who has wanted sum new tunes n knows the album won’t be out 4 a while. My Xmas present to you! Lol Enjoy!”
For me, it’s a bit hit and miss. But it does show off Bluey’s vintage tone and smoothness (eg: ‘Fallin’ In Love’)
Looking forward to seeing the growth.
Earlier in the week, Maxwell got me in the mood for Christmas, now Yasmin brings some more Christmas cheer to the table and she brings gifts in the form of a Free mix. She puts together some of the best R&B classics in a mix to give to all to celebrate her 22nd birthday.
22 tracks (see what she did there) from R&B giants like Mary J Blige, K-CI and JoJo, Sunshine Anderson, Janet Jackson, Mya, Tatyana Ali, SWV… I could go on but I won’t, just listen and enjoy. Peep the tracklist after the jump…
