Future Classic: Fatima “Mind”
Great way to start your week with a video from Fatima, a great soul singer from the UK who is making a lot of noise. Working with tons of great people like Dam-Funk, Floating Points, Funkineven and more. “In preparation for the launch of the forthcoming Eglo website, we took …
Future Classic: Swing & Skip #002
True story about this one: Good homie and head of the Swing and Skip label HGLDT gave a copy of the white label to Julio Bashmore when I was playing with him this summer, but for some reason the vinyl ended up in my pile and I found it a …
Future Classic: Pangaea “Hex”
Just a couple of days ago I was sharing the new Breton EP with the Girl Unit remix as a “Future Classic” selection and now yet again more fire from the same label, Helmlock out of London. This time it’s an absolute burner from the man who calls himself Pangaea. …
Future Classic: Pierre’s Pfantasy Club “Mystery Girl” (Seiji’s Bassrub)
The Numbers imprint is already well known for pulling some proper tricks out of their bag, and this is a BIG one. Originally released in 1987, DJ Pierre’s 2nd single ‘Mystery Girl’ should surely count in the Chi-town hall-of-fame, squarely defining the sound with horny bass vamps, futurist synth strokes …
Future Classic: Breton “RDI” (Girl Unit Remix)
I’ve been playing this track a lot lately and since I get asked everything what it is, I thought I’d share it with you all. When it comes to underground music I am still a huge believer in the power and the trust in quality labels. Hemlock is certainly one …

Future Classic: Wugazi – 13 chambers
Written by: Max Robin I already talked about the excellent mashup work from Max Tannone in another mims post, but here is another great mashup project. As the name suggest, this time it’s the work of DIY post-punk cult band Fugazi and rap warlord super-group Wu-Tang Clan to be shaked and …
Future Classic: Knxwledge “Old. Klouds”
It’s really not an easy thing these days with the insane amount of “beat tapes” and instrumental projects coming to distinguish the awesome from the ordinary. Well, actually no. It is actually very easy to spot when something this good passes you by, it’s just that let’s say there has …
Future Classic: Steve Arrington “Goin Hard” (produced by Dam-Funk)
Pretty much anytime that mister Dam-Funk drops a new project I pay very close attention. Other than his great talent, I really respect the dude and his entire approach to music. I had the pleasure of playing with him in 2009 (check out the recorded set here) As Stones Throw …
