90 Minutes of 2009 tunes…2009 Was the year of the single, loooots of great 12"s this year, deep house was in full effect this year, with lots of great artists making great tunes, but 2009 wasn’t without its low points either. Glitch hop and dubstep have all but taken over, Domu quits, etc. Looking forward to 2010. Happy Kwanzaa ya’ll.

Gino Vannelli was the first white artist on soul train. Balearic madness old and new from the usual suspects & Mandr, a recent re-release on rush hour. An amazing Amy Winehouse joint, some newer brit-soul off Corinne Bailey Rae’s latest LP. Some sweet mellow vibes from Lusine, and an old fav from Metro Area. A really fresh Kyle Hall remix, and some crazy genrebending shit you just have to hear. Oh yea, the Black Dog track is from 1995…mental.
