Some of these tracks have been around for a while (Alexandroid, RA the Rugged Man and Snowboy - actually one of the first albums I owned) mixed up with a bunch of newer numbers. Given that US Thanksgiving has just passed, I might as well go ahead and say it: I give thanks for all these artists plugging away in their respective genres. Hope you enjoy.

On 16 October, Mr Scruff played a brilliant 5 hour set in Cambridge. He is not just a fantastic DJ, cartoonist and tea-maker, he is also a very nice man. Everyone who attended this gig was given a ticket with a code that could be used to download the whole show. As I am quite nice myself, I hereby give you 97 fantastic minutes of Mr Scruff live in Cambridge. Enjoy. Oh and do go and see him if you can, it's a guaranteed top night.

Life slipping you by? One minute you were toasting in the new year and next it's June? Take a deep breath and if you can't make it to your local watering hole, slip on a pair of ear buds and take this mix around the block. I've thrown together a mix of new and old using the wonderfully, elegantly simple Mixmeister Fusion (thanks Natalie for the suggestion to bin Ableton - way too powerful for my humble needs). It's been a tough week, but be-bopping around Lake Merritt in Oakland to this selection helped me usher in the weekend with a fresh glow. Along the way I managed to catch this fabulous mural hanging out in an underpass. Let me know how this mix works for you...

I've been sitting on this mix for a little while now. I just keep getting pulled back into it. I'd go as far as to say it's redefining the music I follow and play. Jubilee is a young turk from Brooklyn who is building up a reputation for serving up some of the rawest beats out there. Picking on producers as diverse as Bok Bok, Wiley, Roska, DJ Eastwood and Schlachthofbronx, the mix starts at pace and just keeps on sizzling. I love the raw clanging of the French Fries' Predator (Tomb Crew Remix) as it bleeds into the atonal warblings of WILDLIFE!'s Jumbie. I did start investigating French Fries and came across this stunner on Youtube from the Frenchman: For more on Jubilee and the full tracklisting, check out XLR8R.

Well, here in SF we're still not quite there yet, but let's start getting in the mood. I originally posted part 1 of this J Period Dancehall Soundclash mix last year, and due to demand am offering up part 2 here. There's no let-up in intensity, and we find ourselves once more engulfed in a heady concoction of dancehall, reggaeton, ragga, hip-hop and a spattering of jump-up pop classics.

Here it is - getting on the 2009 teary nostalgia tip like a bunch of other Poprounders (thug wife, doc and yari, who covered the whole noughties). Most of these tracks have been hacked off the blogs I monitor. Definitely veering on the side of taught electronic production, and me like all the other bloggers is a sucker for the crafty remix so there's more than a few featured here. Chelonis R Jones – Rehabilitation (Excerpt) Kleerup – Until We Bleed (With Lykke Li) Can you feel it – Barack Obama mix Vancouver – Felix Cartal I Remember (Caspa Remix) – Deadmau5 Mr Oizo – Gay Dentists M.I.A. – Death to the throne WTF (DJ Wool remix) – Tittsworth Bot (Original Mix) – Deadmau5 Black Music (One Kitten vs Chris T-T Remix) – Chris T-T Jack got Macked – Julio Bashmore Tanya Stephens – “It’s a Pity” (Lulu Rouge Bootleg) Bigmouth Strikes Again (David Starfire remix) – The Smiths If you're interested in more like this, check out this listing of mp3 downloads from time to time. What's in store for 2010? Looks like dubstep is fragmenting yet still enjoying a share of the hype/limelight. Personally, can't wait to get to SXSW in Austin! Popround no 1:06:51
