Mixtape Monday: LeFtO, Kitty Cash x Rochelle Jordan, Dorian Concept & More

Lenny Kravitz, Grace Jones, Lauryn Hill, Lion Babe, Thundercat, SZA & More Rock The Afropunk Festival 2015 in Brooklyn, NY.

Good morning, good afternoon and good evening from the land of mix. This week's Mixtape Monday compilation simmers with the underground sounds of Rochelle Jordan and the practiced precision of Okayplayer mainstay LeFtO. But looker a little deeper--Aussie downtempo/electro aesthete Dorian Concept turned out a grade-A Boiler Room set in Vienna, and luckily the evidence has been preserved. What's more, we've got newcomer Sofie Fatouretchi's set of back alley beats and a new grip of tracks compiled by Samuel Burgess-Johnson. Rise and shine mixtape clan, wipe the glaze off your eyes. Your next week of steady head nodding starts right now.

The good man LeFtO has done it again and brought a mix that captivates with both new and age-old favorites. Diggs Duke sits comfortably alongside Sun Ra, and a brand new Four Tet remix of John Beltran is the cherry on top of it all. LeFtO's supply of great tracks and bold mixing ideas seems endless, and you'll always find us lined up for what he's working on next. You can download this set for your on-the-go enjoyment right here.

Dorian Concept keys

40 minutes of deftly-spun electro and hip-hop brilliance is what we all got when Australian producer/musician Dorian Concept took to the Boiler Room decks over in Vienna last week. Fans of Jamie XX and Ta-ku take special notice: the Oz kid makes a point to play live over almost every second of his set. Is this even a mix? Where do DJing and live performance meet and dissolve into one another? We suggest you press play and figure that out for yourselves.

Rochelle Jordan is apparently sitting on a collection of b-sides and rare remixes, and that collection saw a bit of daylight last week thanks to Kitty Cash. Synth basslines circle like subterranean helicopters and through it all Ro Jo's voice keeps things highly heavenly. If this is how great her b-side joints sound, we can't wait to know what's headed for upcoming full release.
