Guest Mix - Anatoly Ice - A Little Bit Of Funk & Beyond
Posted by thehookandsling on October 2nd, 2009
Welcome back!
First up , I’d like to give a big shout out to everyone who dropped by and offered their support on our 2 year anniversary! Your comments and emails mean a lot , Thank You!
So, the end of the week rolls in once more and with it comes the return of our monthly night this Saturday! I‘ve been looking forward to this since last month, as the response we have received since moving venues to The Vestry has been truly fantastic. This time around will see The Popcorn King stepping up to the plate and joining me in the unavoidable absence of Hoppin’ John. This is certainly no bad thing as The Popcorn King’s crates run deep! We’ll be kicking things off on Saturday 3rd October from 7.30pm, so if you’re in the area come down and join us!
So after the blistering Guest Mix from Vincent The Soul Chef earlier in the week, I return here with something that I promise is going to get your respective weekends off on the good foot!
Joining us today is Anatoly Ice, a brand new guest contributor all the way from Russia. Aside from his awesome record collection , he has some seriously tight mixing skills in amongst his bag of tricks! I’m not joking when I say the bar has been well and truly raised from now on!
Ladies and Gentlemen give it up for the one and only Anatoly Ice……
“My name is Anatoly Ice. I am a DJ, 45s addicted record collector, promoter, beat digger and music lover from Moscow, Russia. This is my mixture of various beats & breaks, funk & soul from all over the world. All records are original 45s except of few, which are 12″s from Poland.
This mix represents how I play records at my parties. If you like it and somehow appear in Moscow, then you can catch me at The Cult Club where every Saturday I carefully construct segments of the Funk 45s, Soul tracks, Hip-Hop beats, Breaks, Afro, Latin and Brazilian grooves together at my Funk & Beyond parties. It’s an awesome venue with a fantastic crowd and even better music. Come and say Hi!

You’re not wrong about the mixing skills, that’s tight, man sure knows his music and some damn fine tunes in there too!

Second time the Barons track has been posted on here. Come to think of it, second time ‘Somebodys on Your Case’ has been posted on here too.
The Duke says ‘ maybe a price rise is in order for The Barrons, a la Town Called Nowhere’

Both fantastic tracks and worthy of their inclusion here in my humble opinion!!
‘Somebody’s On Your Case’ certainly takes no prisoners!!
Got to say this is a really great mix!

Oh yeah, I definitely know this cat. I’ve heard a few episodes from his podcast show a couple years back. I’ve gotta check out this joint, sure. Thanks as always.
Peace and blessings.

NICE! Wow I love to hear funk minimally and tastefully mixed like this. Anything more would ruin it (ie beat jugglin, scratchin, major genre changes, tricks, etc.) Good selection. You’ve got it. Can’t wait to hear some mo’.
Keep up the good work!
