Gabriel Heatwave’s UK Funky Bashment Mixtape MP3

October 09, 2009


It was only a matter of time before the hottest dance music in London, with its African influences and syncopated jangling, began drifting into reggae territory. On Gabriel Heatwave's mix for XLR8R, he shows exactly how made for each other UK funky house and bashment are with a vast selection of Jamaica's hottest deejays (i.e. our girl Natalie Storm, above) and Britain's most solid emerging funky scions. Not to go heavy on the "heatwave" references but this mix is extra hot fire, let's face it, you always wanted to hear "Ramping Shop" interpolated with DJ Shredda's garage-esque synth stabs. Tracklist after the jump.
