Mode Radio's Weekly Mix #69--Osmose--Caffeine Supreme Vol. 2

DJ Osmose has been a BIG part of the Mode.Radio family since our inception in 2008. His range of DJ mixes from Disco to Reggae and everything else in between has been featured on this blog. It' been a while since we have featured him, so I decided to go to Soundcloud and see his latest.

I'm in love with this mix he did for CaffeineSupreme last month

As he states it: "Quality Music For Forward People" and that's what he has been doing for many years! 

Enjoy!

The Stash 31--J Boogie--Live from NOLA

Back in the fall of 2009, I went to a hip-hop festival in a small park in Berkeley, CA. While there, I met my then-new favorite DJ, J Boogie, who had made an appearance on stage earlier that day. He had just performed in my hometown of Atlanta with KevinO and I told him how I loved where he was taking his music. J Boogie was amazingly cool, humble, and definitely still hustlin' to get his music out there. He hooked me up with this mix, recorded March, 2009 at the Dragon's Den in New Orleans. It definitely is a treat and well worth the listen. You can learn more about J Boogie and his Dubtronic Science at their blog (http://dubtronicscience.blogspot.com) or at the label's website: http://om-records.com/
