DUBSTEP LA MIXTAPE **FREE DOWNLOAD**
Ever wondered what Ras Kass, Xzibit, Eve, Snoop Dogg and Grand Puba would sound like over Dubstep beats made by Plastician, Chase & Status, Caspa, Joker & Benga?
Plastician spoke about it on my show last night… here it is in it’s full glory:
Download all 28 tracks in a nice updated link here
**UPDATE – Some people are finding that a password is being asked for when trying to unpack the zip. There is no password, if you use WINRAR on a PC or Stuffit on a mac, you should be cool. Either way, I have upped a brand new zip of the mixtape with definitely NO PASSWORDS. Thank me later…**
INTRODUCING: MISTAJAM PRESENTS SPEAKERBOX
SPEAKERBOX is the chance for MistaJam to take a host of first-rate cutting edge talent in the form of deejays, producers, artists and performers on the road with him; all of whom he has been championing across his radio shows in recent months. A 14 date tour spanning the country will kick off in May and will see Jam overtaking festivals and clubs as well as Radio 1’s flagship Weekender. For one special show (on May 30th) MistaJam will also team up with the charity Love Music, Hate Racism.
Something that sets MistaJam apart from his peers is his diversity. He is the figurehead of the concept that the barriers between musical genres are being broken down: Dance producers are working with Urban artists. Drum & Bass heads are making Dubstep. R&B singers are singing over House tracks. Indie bands are embracing keyboards and breakbeats over guitars and amplifiers. Jamaican Dancehall riddim builders are making UK Funky. Armand Van Helden, Calvin Harris and The Arctic Monkeys are making music with Dizzee Rascal. Grime artists Wiley, Tinchy Stryder and Kano are riding high in the national charts with electro records. MistaJam Presents Speakerbox is here to represent that in a club setting. Bringing it back to the ethos of good music is good music regardless of where it came from.
MistaJam rocks every Saturday night into Sunday morning (3am-5am) on Radio 1 while every weeknight from 7-10pm he is in charge on 1Xtra with a show dubbed the ‘Key To The Underground’.
MistaJam’s SPEAKERBOX is going to be one hell of a party! Keep locked to SpeakerBoxTour.com for the most up to date info, tour blogs, photos and more.

TAKURA’S STAGE DIVE
So there I was with Annie Mac, Grimmy, Sara Cox, Takura (Chase & Status’ guest vocalist…get to know!) & MissusJam at the side of the outdoor stage while Chase & Status were absolutely killing it with their set at Radio 1′s Big Weekend in Swindon and the urge takes me to film the crowd on my phone who are going BONKERS to Chase & Status’ “Pieces” when Takura decides this is his chance to stage dive:
SNOOP vs CHASE & STATUS
Don’t you love it when you wake up to some good ish in your inbox?:
“After hearing Chase & Status ‘EASTERN JAM’ via a mutual friend, Snoop Dogg and US production team Wild Animals created something really special. ‘SNOOP DOGG MILLIONAIRE’ – It’s a ground-breaking moment for dub-step showing the genre’s potential as a chart-topping form of music on both sides of the pond.”
This is nothing less than major and a great look for not only Chase & Status who are smashing EVERYTHING to pieces at the moment but also the dubstep scene. Now, all we need to do is convince Jigga to jump on Rusko’s “Cockney Thug” and 50 to jump on Magnetic Man’s “Cyberman” and we’re set!
If you want to hear it, check me on 1Xtra tonight. I’ll play it around 7.45pm.
UPDATE: Everyone else has posted it so in the words of George Clinton in House Party, 2 tears in a bucket, f*ck it, let’s take it to the stage….

I’ll still play it tonight along with Goldie’s new dubstep track but if you can’t wait, download here
AGAINST ALL ODDS
I’ve been supporting Chase & Status’ “More Than A Lot” album on all of my radio shows and practically every gig I’ve played since I got a copy in September and this is the next single. It’s the record that C&S played a 30 second snippet on Bailey’s show in January 2008 that had me salivating so much, I played the 30 second clip again and again… “Against All Odds” featuring Kano. Here’s the 70′s blaxploitation influenced video:
Released on RAM on 23rd Feb. Go support.
