Words by DJ Theory —
We take a short detour at Mixtape Mondays today to bring you a world premiere from three heavy-hitting selectors in the game, each holding it down for the ladies and dancehall in a big way. London, Toronto and Jamaica are the focus here, as well as a final salute to summer. Too blessed to be stressed pon a Monday…
LargeUp Exclusive Premiere: ZJ Elektra x The Large x Tasha Rozez, Endless Summer: Our folks at The 45 Shootout laced us with the premiere for this sharp concept mix, uniting three top ranking female selectors from three primary hubs for Caribbean music. We have ZJ Elektra straight from Zip FM Jamaica, The Large repping London and Shimmy Shimmy, and Tasha Rozez waving the banner for Toronto and Gunz & Rozez sound. With each deejay doing collective damage in their respective regions, the 45 Shootout have brought them together as one to select 15 tracks each (totaling 45 tracks total, duh) showcasing their most rated tunes of the moment, just in time for those last rays of summer sun. Covering ground from radio, podcasts, art, culture, soundclashes, dances and more, these gyals are not playing around. Cop and rewind this dancehall mix quick quick quick to find out for yourself. More info on the project can be grabbed here, download the full mix as one track here, individual DJ’s, cover and tracklist here. But you can just stream and download everything below.
