Prompted by My Last Post

Here's a match made in musickal heaven...

The idea for this session came about following the tragic passing of Andrew Weatherall & then an incredible show in Manchester featuring Dub maestro Adrian Sherwood a few days later. At the start of the evening Adrian paid touching tribute to Andrew Weatherall, friend & oft-times collaborator.

This mix celebrates those connections with selections from both producers that span nearly 40 years from squelchy Dub in the early 80s through to deep electronica from 2020. The pallet of both producers is vast. The session features both of their work with Primal Scream, as well as Dub to pulsing floor fillers. The commonality here is heavyweight bass.

Mixed by Gentleman Kush.

  5. This is brilliant, thanks for uploading; brings me back to London in summer when some of these tunes came out. Great mixing too; love the way Loaded fades into Only Love Can Break Your Heart especially. Blasting here on a sunny day in Santa Cruz, CA!

    1. Glad to be providing the soundtrack of fond memories. I have to agree that along with the great mixes by Weatheral & Sherwood, Gentleman Kush's mix of all these tracts is a pleasure in itself.
