guest mix: i love okra

photo: onno, port authority nyc

All the way from Efland, North Carolina we are delighted to host a very special guest mix from Matt aka I Love Okra
ILO has been a favorite of c&m for sometime .... a brief look through the track listings of his mixes can simulate travel sickness such is the aural distance traversed over the duration of the journey .....

not only are the mixes vast and span decades of undercurrent music riddled with gems but there are also a few gargantuan biographical artist mixes where the tracks not only span the career of the artist of choice but also roughly follow the chronological order of release ....... an ultimate homage to the musicians that inspire him ..... check out the great Moodyman mix and hot of the press Theo Parrish mix
