Enter ‘Gucci Gang’, the extended edit: Lil Pump is joined by Lil Wayne, YBN Nahmir, J Balvin, Vybz Kartel, Waka Flocka Flame, 21 Savage and a shit-ton more on the month’s least essential mix. That mix at least makes the effort to expand on a defined theme elsewhere on the internet, there are factions who believe a single tune can carry an entire set, provided it’s catchy enough. Ah, the low-stakes world of streaming media – take one ridiculous idea, multiply it by an hour in front of your decks, and you too could produce something as gloriously unnecessary and totally brill as this “ladies only” selection of mid-90s slow jams, as put together by Stimulator Jones for Passion of the Weiss this month, featuring loose and laidback cuts from Sa-Deuce, FABU, Trellini, Gina Thompson and various not-so-well-remembered R&B divas of the era. With every month the internet seems more grotesquely stuffed with promotional content for hustling DJs, but the increase in volume seems to be accompanied by an increase in interesting finds, too.
In our monthly column, FACT guides you through the must-hear mixes of the last 30 days, whether you want a club session to warm you up for the weekend, ambient soothers or a set of vinyl-only obscurities.
It’s almost impossible to keep on top of everything that SoundCloud, Mixcloud and online radio has to offer.
