My Year of Mixtapes is Chicago-based DJ/producer Chrissy Murderbot’s heroic attempt to do one mixtape a week for a year. So far, so good.
His knowledge of obscure genres, their history and the connections between seemingly disparate artists is truly impressive. Who else is doing killer mixes of Kraftwerk, UK Rave from 1991 AND Bobby Orlando? Probably no one. Personally favorites of mine are Week 26: Classic Ragga Jungle and Week 36: Italo-Disco. And Week 32: Weed Songs is well-suited for those special times.
Chrissy’s own work as a DJ and producer can be found at murderbot.com. He also runs Sleazetone records – purveyors of highly sleazy tunes.
