I'd not heard of Joe Driscoll prior to this landing in my inbox but if this remix is anything to go by he should be one to watch. In advance of Driscoll's new album, Mixtape Champs (out on 23 May on Localization Records), he has released a couple of mixes of the title track for free download.
You can check out Mr Benn's mix on Soundcloud but it is Don Hendicutz mix that is doing it for me. Very laid back old skool summer hip-hop styles that doubles up nicely as a game of 'name that sample'. I really miss the days of hip-hop records that talked about the opposite sex with a bit more innocence - this version of 'Mixtape Champs' feels like a real return to the daisy age. Check it out below and download it if you like it... Hit Driscoll's site for news on the forthcoming release and tour.
