Gomma Podcast #130 – Munk Winter Mix

Here comes – a bit late, as always – Mathias Modica’s winter mixtape. But as we know he was busy with other stuff: Releasing two EPs on Local Talk and Correspondant and producing a lot of new music that will come out in 2016. On this mixtape the Munk man serves a quite easy trip through
current soulful house and broken beat goodies. Starting with Tom Misch and Jack J, in a nasty red light bar mood and ending in a trippy space with Berlin’s very own Montezuma’s Revenge and some ethnic downtempo music.

Tracklist:
1 Tom Misch & Bearcubs – Colours of Freedom
2 Jack J – Something On My Mind
3 Munk – Hot Medusa (Kai Alce Remix)
4 Soledrifter – The Beat Inside
5 Hess is More – Youarenotaprimate (Munk Remix)
6 Martin Lewis – Do it
7 Rhode & Brown – Whistleblower (Hodini Remix)
8 Black Sience Orchestra – New Jersey Deep
