A few weeks ago, ThisIsTomorrow asked me to do a mix for his blog. I didn’t hesitate a moment because I had been a fan of his blog for a while. He has been hosting mixes by the likes of Larry Grogan (funky16corners) and Dj Prestige (fleamarketfunk), so that’s really cool. If you’re into stone cold funk and soul, check out his “Soul Food” show on Laid Back’s own online radio station.

“Inner City Jazz” is a 68 minute long jazz mix with mostly hard-bop and latin jazz from the golden era (in my opinion) of jazz music. Go get it at thisistomorrow.blogspot.com and show the guy some love.
