Gym soundtrack for today: Rob Swift - Soulful Fruit

Soulful Fruit (1997) helped redefine turntablism as an art form. The Queens-born DJ, member of the X-Ecutioners, blends precision scratching with musical composition. Features include Babu and a legendary battle with Rahzel. Classic material here!

Gym soundtrack today: C2C – Tetra 💪🎧

Turntablism at its absolute peak. Scratching, beat juggling, flipping vinyl into instruments – but still insanely musical. Down The Road & Happy still go crazy. Proof turntablism & deejaying is a real art form. #C2C #Turntablism #C2Cdjs

Gym Soundtrack for Today: Freddie Gibbs & Madlib – Bandana

Piñata yesterday straight into Bandana today. Freddie Gibbs & Madlib really don’t miss. The growth between these two albums is crazy, but they kept that raw edge. Madlib’s production is unpredictable & genius, Freddie’s pen is razor sharp.

Gym Soundtrack for Today: Freddie Gibbs & Madlib – Piñata

A modern classic. Gibbs at his sharpest, rapping with brutal honesty about street life, survival, and paranoia, all while showing insane technical skill. Madlib delivers dusty, timeless production pulled from another universe. Pure chemistry

Masta Ace & Marco Polo’s Richmond Hill (Deluxe Edition) is a masterclass in grown-man hip-hop. Ace’s sharp storytelling and reflection over Marco’s gritty, soulful boom-bap proves real craftsmanship never ages.

Not exactly a Christmas movie but any time is a good time to be watching Big Trouble in Little China. An absolute classic. Kurt Russell at his best, wild energy, unforgettable quotes, and pure 80s magic. One of my all-time favourites—never gets old. 🎥🐉 #BigTroubleInLittleChina #80sMovies #Classic

It’s getting to that time of the year and what better way to get into the Christmas spirit than to give my mix another spin from this time last year. This is a live set that I spun at The Kings Arms in Crewe. Not listened to this for a while either!! #Christmas🌲🎁

Studio update: We’re so close now! 🙌

All walls are plastered, skirting boards + door frames are on, and all the electrics are finished (lights, sockets, wiring). Next up: painting, carpets, the DJ bench + speaker shelves. Got a TV ready too so I can stream my laptop while deejaying. 🔊🎧

Gym Soundtrack for Today: Erick Sermon – Dynamic Duos & Your Old Droog – Anything Is Possible

Erick Sermon delivers classic funk knock, thick drums & great guest shots. Droog’s Anything Is Possible goes colder & more precise, built on tight samples and razor-detailed bars! One of my favourite MCs.

Gym Soundtracks for Today: Evidence’s Unlearning Vol.1 & 2

These feel like hearing an artist actively rebuild himself. Vol.1 strips everything down to clarity and reflection, while Vol.2 dives deeper into growth, vulnerability & sharper experimentation. @Evidence never misses.

Gym soundtrack for today: Redman - Muddy Waters Too

Redman’s Muddy Waters Too feels like the Funk Doc stepping back into the swamp with the same wild energy, grimy beats, and razor-sharp bars that made the original a classic. Pure Jersey funk, pure hip-hop. Redman never lost a step. #Redman

Gym soundtrack for today: Gym soundtrack for today: Brand Nubian - In God We Trust

Brand Nubian’s In God We Trust marked a powerful new chapter after Grand Puba’s exit. A bold, stripped-down record that cemented the group’s legacy as one of hip hop’s most influential voices. #BrandNubian
