Motor City Drum Ensemble delivers groovy BBC essential mix

[News]

It’s been a consistently solid year for essential mixes with the BBCs long-standing series toting some mega talent in the way of RUFUS DU SOL, Four Tet and Jeremy Underground amongst others.

The latest is from German DJ Motor City Drum Ensemble who has dug deep for his two hour degustation that flexes obscure cuts of house, funk and soul telling his fans on Facebook;

Heres an “Essential Mix” for Pete Tong/BBC One to finish up this season! Been quite a while since i did a proper studio Mix, and for those who liked my DJ Kicks from a couple of years ago – this mix follows a somewhat similar approach, showcasing my different influences as a producer and DJ. Its not necessarily a straight “party” mix, theres tons of live sets from clubs i played around, but something you might appreciate at home on one of those winter nights.

Check out his seriously smooth mix on the BBC site or stream below;
