oli’s 8 pack
cross posted from here
so i think the house of royale series has run its course and the ten volumes are some pretty definitive throw downs. time to flip the format for a sec with some 8 packs.
of course, we’re going to pick up right where the last one left off….funk and thangs.

001 50 Cent - I Get Money (I Dap Money Remix)
002 Cyril Neville - Tell Me What’s On Your Mind
003 Sharon Jones - How Long (Ticklah Remix)
004 Eugene Blacknell - WahWah Funk
005 Blu & Exile - In Remebrance Of Me
006 Lack Of Afro - For You
007 Jolie Holland - Springtime Can Kill You
008 William Parker Violin Trio - Dust On A White Shirt
super, huge hat tip to soul-sides for a couple of these tracks. if you think these mixes are good…read his blog everyday. dudes got some great taste.
the sharon jones remix comes from the new daptone remixed album which is STRAIGHT BANANAS. been bumping that for days!
lack of afro is a dude i’ve had on my radar for some time now….nice to see his solo shit finally start to drop. this guy is a one man wrecking crew.
the jolie holland and william parker have been kicking around for awhile but never found a place for them in the house of royale mixes. we take you down gently with this mix.

the tin edition and we celebrate with an extended, long playing mix of all things funky. some familiar names mixed in with some newer ones. a little more reggae this time and spacey jams to close.

this volume is just the stripped down, end of summer, shake yo ass one last time, dirt dog mix. these were some of my favorite summer jams. of note are the howlin’ wolf track (just effin’ ridiculously bananas), cookin’ on 3 burners (a new favorite band of mine) and the closing track - george freeman’s ‘the bump’ (infectious to the last note).

long time. no mix. this one’s focus is more on the hip hop tip with dashes of heavy funk, old soul and a dab of dub. i’d say this is one of the heavier mixes of the house of royale series. a true booty shaker. equal enjoyment on the car stereo or in yo headphones.
