In Hour 1 it's singer, songwriter and producer Nick Hakim, who  grew up in a household overflowing with musical diversity and cites influences ranging from Marvin Gaye and Curtis Mayfield, to Madlib and MF Doom, to South American folk and DC punk. He independently built a following through the release of his critically acclaimed self-released EPs Where Will We Go, Pt. 1 and Where Will We Go, Pt 2. May 2017 marked the release of his debut full-length album, 'Green Twins', which featured contributions from Jesse & Forever and the Onyx Collective and was an experimental step forward with emotional heft gleaned from experiences in the years since the first EPs. He had this to say about his mix; "These are songs that I love right now.. I appreciate you taking the time to listen. With all this madness happening around us, listening to music is where I always find solitude and peace. Have a nice day and enjoy. Be safe out here" In Hour 2 we hand over to Astronautica, a singer/songwriter and electronic producer whose music captures the eclectic nature of Los Angeles’ experimental beat scene and its connections to different cultures around the globe. She was drawn into the L.A.’s underground musical community swirling around Low End Theory, and quickly became addicted to the burgeoning beat sounds of the West Coast. She has been signed to Alpha Pup Records for the last five years, and has launched a slew of widely acclaimed releases with the label. Her latest album is Death Valley, which she wrote and recorded over the last three years at her home studio in Los Angeles. She told us; "This is a collection of songs that I'm currently listening to, songs that have been an inspiration in some of my past works, and my latest tracks off of my most recent LP, 'Death Valley.' Living in LA, I spend a lot of time in my car driving through many streets and neighborhoods, my favorite is when I'm driving late at night after all the traffics subsided listening to music with the windows down, I made this mix to evoke that feeling."   Part 1 Nick Hakim Doug Carn featuring Jean Carn Naima Pink Siifu  Skin Made of Gold Barry White Cant get enough of your love, babe Dur Dur Band Is Yeelyel Jack Dejohnette Ntoro Dr Buzzards Original Savanah Band Sunshower Marlena Shaw  Loving You Was Like a Party Melvin Van Peebles Hoppin John Interlude 1 (sp404) Shuggie Otis Island Letter Pink Siifu  Pops Tired Norvis Junior (Nelson Bandela) Kissin on Your Back Eugene McDaniels  The Parasite Pink Siifu Pray Everyday Doug Carn Jean Carn Naima The Moments When The Morning Comes Dirty Beaches Lord Knows Best Gil Scott Heron & Brian Jackson Peace go With You,Brother Eugene McDaniels Feel Like Making Love Ashni Puthli Space Talk Outro (sp404) PART 2 Astronautica Rosalía Malamente Blake Skowron No Fight (feat.
