Mix Tape: DJ Hudge - Ghetto Discotheque Volume 1

I've been stumbling over a few decent mix tapes lately (check the Frank Booker and J.Rocc beauties if you missed them), and now it's three for three thanks to the latest collection from the pride of Penge, the magnificent DJ Hudge.

Hudge has been holding it down in London Town and beyond for years now, moving the crowd at his Boogie Down session in Brixton and with his legendary Take It 2 The Bridge boat parties (which have no doubt entertained and scared a few tourists on Tower Bridge).

With a sound grounded in classic hip hop, funk and a whole lot more, Hudge can throw down with the best of them. And he's done just that on the first instalment of his new Ghetto Discotheque mix series, carving up a tasty selection of funk nuggets, peppered with some top grade hip hop.

Over to you, Hudge: "This is the first in a series called the Ghetto Discotheque. The plan was to do a mix of tunes I love both old and new with a focus firmly on the Funk. Enjoy...Massive thanks to Big Ted for the vocal drops and to Prodigal Youth for the artwork. Nuff respect fellas."
