We’re getting into the holiday spirit earlier this year—for the entire month of December, enjoy our 50% off vinyl sale exclusively in the Mixpak store. DJs, cop two for the price of one!
We’ve only got a few titles left, so act fast, and hit the jump to see what’s in stock.
Mixpak FM 077 comes from Japanese producer and DJ, Prettybwoy. Since the inception of Mixpak, we’ve always had some connection with the Japanese scene (our whole blog was translated into Japanese at one point) and have covered some points in Japanese grime, and of course not forgetting our release with Hard Nips.
While the sound of grime has notoriously not been particularly well exported or translatable, Japan looks to be the biggest (but still very small) scene outside of the UK, with a number of MCs and DJs inspired by the genre. Having followed UK club music for a long time, Prettybwoy has been steady representing the sound of UKG, 2-step, bassline and grime in Tokyo for the last 10 years, running the nights ‘Golly Gosh’ and 444-1 Tokyo. Things have come full circle for Prettybwoy lately, with his productions being featured on EZ’s Kiss FM show and on the Big Dada “Grime 2.0” compilation.
His Mixpak FM runs through sounds from like-minded Japanese artists – DoubleClapperz, Carpainter, Duff, 1Ta, Ena, 100Mado – as well as tracks from UK contemporaries.

Jubilee has been a busy gyal lately, taking her talents worldwide this fall with shows in Australia, Europe, and Puerto Rico. She’s got a few upcoming dates in the States before the year is out (check ’em out here!). And if she’s not coming to your city anytime soon, get your Jubilee fix by peeping one of her recent mixes for Serato and Triple J, her remixes for Anna Lunoe and Gnucci, or her recent interview in Day & Nite. As always, stay up to date with Jubilee on Twitter, and be on the lookout for more music in the new year!
Murlo is the newest addition to the official Mixpak roster (expect a series of EPs from him in 2015), and we’re happy that he now has his own regular show on NTS! Starting today at 10pm GMT / 5pm EST and every month from then on.
We have new items up and ready to roll just in time for Winter! We made these super warm Mixpak beanies to keep you warm, as well as official Popcaan WWCF posters and a bunch of new bundles if you’re looking for a nice deal. Shipping worldwide.
