Description

I’m sure plenty of us have felt affected by the madness that has been 2016. The constant stream of intolerance in this world, has permeated every facet of communication and music, so I thought I’d bring some of this feeling into an hour of dance floor tunes.

I kick off with a track from Michael Kiwanuka, Black Man in a White World is a commentary on the ongoing racial inequality on our planet, and a contemporary soul classic, reminiscent of the heyday of Marvin Gaye’s political soul, yet completely of the moment.

Lighter slices of Swing and funk come next, with Izo Fitzroy's Here I Come the stand out for me.

No mix of 2016 is complete without a nod to some our departed legends, and I’ve included Ben Liebrand’s remix of Bowie’s Let’s Dance and Glouster’s version of Kiss, both have super bouncy house baselines, whilst retaining the original’s syncopation.

A cheeky mashup at the end of What's Going on and Truth and Rights, brings a political flava back in.

One love
