When !K7 Records announced that they’d be set to release the 50th edition of its much-loved DJ Kicks series with a special compilation from maverick German producer DJ Koze it’s fair to say we were expecting big things and now upon hearing the mix we’re pleased to say it didn’t disappoint.
Rather than a mix in the traditional sense, the Pampa label boss presents a more “radio show” like affair. Kicking off with his own exclusive cut ‘I Haven‘t Been Everywhere But It‘s On My List’ the 50th DJ Kicks collects originals and edits from the likes of Homeboy Sandman, Freddie Gibbs & Madlib, Session Victim, Boards Of Canada and Mndsgn.
“During the day, I don’t need to hear anything that’s mixed on the beat,” explains Koze. “I put the focus on making sure that it works harmoniously – the idea is more to create the impression of a radio show, like people such as John Peel did so uniquely. There is a giant cosmos of music and it runs through my filter.”
Out now, you can check out ‘I Haven‘t Been Everywhere But It‘s On My List’s official video below:
