Versus - Paris DJs Extra Flavor Mix

Versus - Paris DJs Extra Flavor Mix
Selected by Donnie Bass, mixed by Jesus Crise
(MP3 Podcast on www.ParisDJs.com) 2011-07-19

The Versus French band has only limited a few EPs out right now, but a full-length album is scheduled for this autumn! This band includes some of our long-time friends and collaborators so we're quite proud to have them here as guests. Besides the obvious Herbaliser Band influcences, their music is a real French take on Manchester's mid 90s hip hop/club scene from Grand Central, Ninja Tune, Rob's Records, etc. Here's a snapshot of their vision of today's music, with featurings from Dunham Records, Tru Thoughts, Ubiquity, Record Kicks and a few others...

Hidden Orchestra - Outlook Festival Mixtape

Hidden Orchestra - Outlook Festival Mixtape
(MP3 Podcast on www.ParisDJs.com) Tru Thoughts, 2011-07-20

This new and third incredible Hidden Orchestra mix doesn't fit in the same bag as the Footsteps or Night Walks On Vinyl mixtapes previously offered on Paris DJs. It's more of a 140 BPM beats kind of affair cooked especially to announce Hidden Orchestra's upcoming live gig at the Outlook Festival 2011 in Croatia this september, Europe's largest bass music and soundsystem culture festival!!

Having shared stages with names like Bonobo, Aim, The Bays and Gilles Peterson it's about time Outlook got this interesting Scottish Band down. Combing jazz with cinematic emotions the four piece band draw influence from Radiohead, Madlib, Aphex Twin and Squarepusher. As well as two live drummers the band trigger live samples and use live instrumentation on Cello and Brass. Their debut album Night Walks was funded by the Scottish Arts Council and features guest appearances from distinguished Scottish musicians. Released on Brighton based label Tru Thoughts, Night Walks shows off energetic originality unlike any other band.
