Solid Steel Presents Hexstatic: Listen & Learn

Editor's Review:

Hexstatic's Solid Steel mix is a deft blend of chill electro, hip-hop, soul and a little dub reggae, and is the best release of this short series to date. Punctuated by Hexstatic's own production constructions, this mix runs the gamut, tearing through blended cuts from Grandmaster Flash & The Furious Five, Ike & Tina Turner, David Holmes, Toots & The Mytals and Stonebridge, all in just one continuous session. With tracks from the likes of Boards Of Canada, Unsung Heroes, Man Parish and Charles Wright & The Watts 103rd St. Rhythm Band, this mix is not only a great cross section of cool music, but also a way of tying all these genres and styles together in a nice little package.
