Mixtape Monday ft. “Jet Jam Mixtape #1″ by Star Slinger

Jet Jam
Sup, guise.  Glad you see you all are still alive to see another Mixtape Monday.  But I can’t say the same for my boy, Billy Cundiff.  OOF.  Like, how does that happen?  Just another one of life’s unanswered questions, I guess.

Allow me to drown my sorrows in some tasty tunes from the young bol, Star Slinger.  I’ve posted one of his mixes before, probably because he’s one of my favorite selectors in the game right now.  He has this impeccable ability to mix fresh, new tunes with revamps of old school hits and make it all sound like one unified jam sesh.  Not only that, but he’s like the Wolfgang Puck of cutting samples and cookin’ up the dopest track out of them. So in all of his mixes, you’ll hear his own unique productions juxtaposed with some of today’s hottest club tracks and then he’ll sprinkle in some reworks of old school tracks that make you, “AW SHET I REMEMBER THIS SONG!”  I dunno how he does it so well but I eat it up!

So today’s mix is celebrating his new club night in Ljubljana, “Jet Jam”, where it’s not about genre or bpm but more about party people just gettin’ loose and happy.  And that’s exactly what he accomplishes in this mix – tons of feel good vibes and happy times.  There’s a few Star Slinger originals on there including a brand new collab with Chippy Nonstop called “Sippin”.  Also, “Rack City” make a special guest appearance and I’m not sick of that song yet so that works.  Plus some Crookers and Buraka Som Sistema!?  CMON SON.  We’re having fun now.  Then he throws in some “Indian Flute” and “Jump” by Kriss Kross?!  Game the fuck over.

Mixtape Monday ft. Star Slinger’s September Mix for Altered Zones

Star Slinger

Y’all ready for this?  It’s Mixtape Monday here at Head of Rothchild!  It’s time to shimmy shake off that weekend hangover and get ya groove on this morning.  To celebrate this short work week, I present to you…a really fun mix from Star Slinger for Altered Zones.  If a three-day work week ain’t enough to get you off dat ass, this mix might help.

Star Slinger, aka Darren Williams, is a DJ, producer, and master remixer from Manchester, UK.  His talents in the studio often end up with him being compared to J. Dilla, but he sees himself to be more like DJ Rashad or DJ Nate, both Planet Mu-affiliates.  Star Slinger combines his long-standing hip-hop influences, particularly southern hip-hop like Three 6 Mafia and old school positivity like De La soul, with a fearless motivation to sample anything and everything to become one of the most masterful remixers in the game.  He has an ever-expanding portfolio of excellent remixes, including Childish Gambino’s “Feaks and Geeks”, Gold Panda’s “Marriage”, and most recently, Drake’s “Over My Dead Body”.  Star Slinger has a particular glitchy, repetitive way of cutting up his samples that make his tracks completely addictive.  Don’t worry, your iPod is not broken – that’s just Star Slinger doin’ his thing.  Lately, he’s been trying to expand his circle of influence a bit and start producing his very own original material.  Listen to his very first original track, “Dumbin’” ft. Reggie B, and you’ll hear how all of these soulful, hip-hop influences come to fruition.

You should find Star Slinger’s Altered Zones mix to be as eclectic as his musical influences.  He combines that kinda hip-hop that makes you ride low in ya seat, like Big K.R.I.T.’s “Return of 4Ever” and Juicy J’s “Smoke That Bitch” with popular house tunes, like Armand Van Helden’s “You Don’t Know Me” and Cassius’ “Feelings For You” and mixes them all in with Major Lazer’s “Can’t Stop Now” and…Bone Thugs and Harmony’s “Crossroads”?!?!?!  HELL YES.  Add in a couple of his original remixes and you’ve got a taste of what Star Slinger is all about. I dunno how he does it, but I’m not mad at this mix at all.  Star Slinger will take you to maaaaany different places while you’re in his zone.  My advice to you is just to sit back, relax, maybe dance a bit? and let it happen.  It’s all about enjoying yourself here on Mixtape Monday.
