Mishka Ranks My “Keep Watch” Mix #1

The Mishka Keep Watch mix series is one of the most prestigious and forward thinking out there.  It has featured names like Skream, Major Lazer, Rusko, Buraka Som Sistema, 12th Planet, and more.  Needless to say, I was thrilled to get the nod back in January of 2011 for Vol. XXIII.

Well, my excitement has gone up 10 notches, as they have just ranked my mix the most memorable of the whole freaking series!  #1, bwoy!  Read the article here and peep the mix below.

“1.  Shiftee – Keep Watch Vol. XXIII

At the end of the day, a mix is not just a collection of tracks, but it’s the combination of those things into a larger singular unit. Shiftee’s turn on the decks had to number one just because of the immense skill this world champion DJ displayed putting this thing together. You can practically hear him panting in the background as his hands fly lightning fast from knob to slider to scratch.

In addition to the technical aspects, Shiftee was aces on the track selection, mixing of the moment hip hop with every kind of dance music under the sun and then chopping it all into an intoxicating mixture that hits as hard today as the day it dropped. Kudos to you Shiftee, and to all the artists who have contributed a Keep Watch mix. You all killed it!” – Mishka Bloglin

MISHKA presents Keep Watch Vol. XXIII – ME! // New Mix

When Mishka tapped me to be Vol. XXIII of their prestigious Keep Watch mix series, I tapped them back in an accepting manner because I’m a gentleman who believes in Hammurabi’s Code. Past artists in the series have included Major Lazer, Skream, Rusko, Crookers, 12th Planet, Congorock, Craze, Klever, and more, so I knew I couldn’t just twiddle my fingers on this one. I had to spend my time instead making a good mix.

Here’s my official statement on the end result: “”No crazy concept here (my sounds of the sea compilation will have to wait). I simply wanted to feature a bunch of tracks I’m feeling right now, and put them together in an interesting, scratch-happy way. Some of the tunes are old, some are recent, some are unreleased, some are so new Kanye don’t even know about ‘em. One of them actually is Kanye. In any case, the listener will experience an eclectic array of mostly dubstep and grime. There will be twists, there will be turns, and of course, there will be scratching.”
