A Strange Arrangement [M001.2]

After yet another essential release from Peanut Butter Wolf's mighty Stones Throw Records, in the shape of the new LP by Mayer Hawthorne titled A Strange Arrangement, we found ourselves going back to our own Stones Throw collection. We realised, once again, how good it was! On the back of this, we thought it would be a good idea to record a short mix of the more funkier, soulful and boogie based releases. A short summary of the mix and details on the music featured can be found after the track listing.
