WEEKENDMIX 9.14.12: SCHOOL IS IN SESSION
The first week of school for most school age peoples in these here United States is just about done, and despite us referencing this glorious time of year in this weeks DJ of The Week in which we featured the Dropout Orchestra, we’re going to reference it one mo again; there is a lot of learning to do.
We know we spoiled you during the Summer WeekendMix features which more often than not featured multiple mixes by multiple DJs, but it’s time to reign it in and focus, and besides this one DJ is more than enough.
His name is Robert Luis, he is from Brighton, Britain (UK) and is the founder and co-owner of the Tru Thoughts record label, in which he also plays the role of A&R and of course, helps manage their website. You can also hear him on the radio, Juice 107.2FM Brighton where he runs the Unfold radio show, and you catch him at rocking massive crowds at local venues and abroad.
Luis is a true lover of music, a connoisseur of the beat with a profound passion for the craft of DJing and everything that goes into it. Once you press play on any of his mixes you are immediately struck with the true artistry with which he creates his mixes, the way he weaves through songs, stirring emotions and stimulating thought processes you weren’t expecting; yes, perfect for the studious ones out there; especially those who keep their ears tuned to the underground world of Hip Hop, well, actually, R&B and Hip Hop are just the beginning, being the music scholar that he is, Luis brings everything to the table, everything. If you appreciate all forms of music, or are wiling to open your mind, that’s what you’re going to get.
I suggest you download and listen to this mix ASAP, multiple times. Once you’re ready, follow the links to Luis’ various online hangouts, included below, and continue your lessons. In the meantime, strap on your headphones, school is in session.
