Roska has blown up big on the UK funky scene apparently. I am still not entirely sure what UK funky is, but I don’t really care because I know this mix is rad. Killer percussion and bad boy rhythms abound on this hour long promo mix for Sonar radio. It incorporates a bit of dubstep, some broken beat, a touch of house, and a whole lot of awesome.
Stand out tracks for me are the opener, a Roska mix of dbridge & Martyn’s beautiful track ‘These Words’, Roska’s own Jackpot (which I could imagine absolutely destroying a club), and the wicked melodic vibe on his tune ‘Tomorrow is Today’. All in all though, a pretty banging party vibe, good for prepping for a big night out, or plowing through some spreadsheets at the office. Don’t take my word for it though, give it a hoon for yourself.

Special mentions this month also go to former mix of the month artists Lenzman & ASC who both put out killer mixes this month that have been on high rotate for me too. Check Lenzman’s Reprise Agency Podcast (featuring the beautiful vocal talents of Riya) for one of the best liquid drum and bass mixes I have heard in a while & ASC’s Club Muse podcast for some awesome 90′s hip hop/experimental/dubstep/140bpm grooves.
Thanks to Nivin for the heads up on the Roska mix.
