MIMS Guest Mix: Kerbside Collection (Brisbane / Légère Recordings)

Following their brilliant ‘Round The Corner’ album for Légère Recordings, Brisbane’s Kerbside Collection put together a special two-hour mix for us.

A spectrum selection of dusty jazz funk & gritty rare grooves, joining the dots to shape some of the influences and inspirations behind Kerbside Collection’s 4th album ‘Round The Corner’, an album made during some strange times with a worldwide pandemic that brought things to a stand still, and a planet in flux.

Old, new, rare and not-so-rare grooves blended by the band’s drummer Paprika, featuring tracks from 4hero, Menahan Street Band, Weldon Irvine, Joe Sample, George Benson, Butcher Brown, Monty Alexander, Kamaal Williams, Gene Harris, Lucas de Mulder and many more besides.
