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

Detroit soul man Mayer Hawthorne presents Soul With A Hole Vol. 1, his 24-track all-vinyl 45 mix of originals. This is a digital download of a 2009 Stones Throw set tailor made for diggers and lovers of deep soul breaks. The mix features the kinds of tracks that fuel producers like Madlib, DOOM and Just Blaze. Included in this compilation of tracks are gems from Deon Jackson, The Marvelettes, Billy Harner, The Toys and others. The dirty drums, juking melodies and doo-wop vocals pop from these songs like hot grease. With this mix Mayer Hawthorne drops a stack of stone cold joints for the heads and anyone curious as to what raw soul really sounds like. Check the mix below. Look out for Mayer Hawthorne's forthcoming LP Where Does This Door Go, dropping on July 16th.
