It would seem that the majority of the tunes I have been listening to lately feature a four-to-the-floor kick drum. So if you’re of the opinion that most of that “nst’ nst’ nst'” crap sounds the same, you should probably stop reading now and find something else to listen to… However, if you have read this far already, my guess is that you have a sense of what you’re getting into and that you too will share my enthusiasm for many of these funky soulful gems.
In this instalment of The Bootleg Tapes , you will hear new material from the likes of Duke Dumont, Disclosure, Booka Shade, Mount Kimbie, and Daft Punk alongside a handful of selections from the stacks…

Why is this mix series titled “The Bootleg Tapes”? I have been pondering this question… Wikipedia describes a “bootleg recording” as “an audio or video recording of a performance that was not officially released by the artist or under other legal authority.” The article goes on to explain that “the process of making and distributing such recordings is known as bootlegging.” To be honest, I did not pay for any of these tracks, and some of them have not yet been released by their respective labels. I did not receive permission from the “copyright holders” to re-distribute this content, (as SoundCloud’s copyright infringement detection software pointed out to me when I tried unsuccessfully to upload the mix the first couple times.) In short, these mixes are conceived and distributed in contravention of music copyright law. For this reason, it would seem that the title of the series is fitting.
For this tenth episode, I put together a special two-hour mix comprised of an eclectic selection of house, techno, UK garage, and soul. Most of the tracks are contemporary, but you will hear a handful of classics from the likes of Fingers Inc., Rhythim Is Rhythim, Inner City, and Carl Craig.
Special thanks to the other Low-Life staff-writers who helped me find a great deal of this music–as well as to our followers.
