This time round, Skinny of the Rastachaun crew, presents a rather excellent selection of tunes of influences, inspirations and personal selections. A fine look at whats happening outside of the drum and bass genre from one of Ireland’s jungle soldiers.
From the Man Himself
“I’ve always enjoyed putting tracks together that I like, making the so called mix tape although I wouldnt call this a mix. Its more a collection of tunes that I like and the film clips in between are just there to make it flow a little better I guess . Ive been doing this since as long as I could work a tape recorder, I used to listen to the radio and I’d have a little tape recorder sitting beside it with the PLAY, REC and PAUSE buttons all pressed down and as soon a a tune came on the radio that I liked id unpause it. (nobody would be allowed in my room while this went on as they would be heard on the recording). It’s something I have done ever since, whether it’s juts putting a few tracks on a CD for the car or putting a playlist together for my MP3 player its all the same.
