Sonnyjim - The Psychonaut (prod. DJ IQ)

DJ IQ concocts a distinctly digi offering for Sonnyjim to spaz out on for The Psychonaut, the lead track off the impending album of the same name. The single is available to buy below.

Joker Starr & DJ IQ - Don't Get Left Behind (Mixtape)

Don’t Get Left Behind is the fruit of DJ IQ and Joker Starr’s labour. The unofficial tallest DJ in UK hip hop is nice with the beats and Joker has already been very hard at work this year, returning to the fray with various mixtape projects and releases.

You can familiarise yourself with Sunshine – also on here – or just start downloading from the get go.

You can pick this up on digital release from 12th April, and I'll be doing just that. Dope posse cut.

Joker Starr - Sunshine

New ish from Joker Starr with IQ on the beats. This is flippin' nice and I can't wait for the Don't Get Left Behind mixtape these two have got coming.

Asaviour And DJ IQ - No Days Off

Wicked video for No Days Off, from the excellent The A Loop Theory. Not got the album yet? Pay Suspect Packages a little visit then.

DJ IQ - Christmas Lights

An eclectic mix to complement IQ’s Flashing Lights mix-CD. Here’s what “they” had to say:

“It’s all the cuts that didn’t make the final version of Flashing Lights CD you can nab here… Don’t expect any jingling bells or ho ho ho’s, but do expect some Hudson Mohawke, Ludacris, Starky and much more. A perfect blend of electronica, hip hop and abstract beats you will love but won’t be able to categorise, which is exactly why this is our official Christmas present to you all.”

Oooo, ta very much!

Tracklist:

01. Face in Flame - M.L.K Jr
02. Kid Midas Sound – Earth A Kill You
03. Hudson Mohawke – Fuse

DJ IQ UK Hip Hop Evolution Mix

Seen this all over the gaff, but it's an essential post. IQ ran up in the BBC and spun a UK hip hop mix that shows how the music has evolved from Homo erectus (no homo) to Homo sapien (no homo).

DJ IQ Hip Hop Evolution Mix

This mix has reminded me of something...(look up).

JEHST / SONNYJIM / MICALL PARKINSON & DJ IQ INSTORE @ JIBBERING RECORDS

All the way live.

Just a reminder...

...that Asaviour and DJ IQ's The A Loop Theory Southern Album Launch is at 93 Feet East on Brick Lane, London tonight. Savvy will no doubt kill it, but I'm also looking forward to catching Sir Smurf and Jack Flash, who I've not seen live yet.

Both of their albums are fire and, if you haven't already, you should swing by Suspect Packages and pick up a copy of each.

Sir Smurf Lil - New Bloodline

Jack Flash - The Union Jack

This is night you can't miss if you're in town.

DJ IQ - Pimp My Mix

Pimp your iPod with this nice freebie courtesy of DJ IQ. I haven't had a chance to listen yet as I'm holed up with swine influenza. Did someone say bacon?

DJ IQ and Asaviour - The A Loop Theory

I'll admit that I've not been following the scene for longer than a minute and I've got to get back on my BS. DJ IQ and Asaviour dropped in the last couple weeks with The A Loop Theory.

If you like what you hear, use the Google tool to cop a copy, or the individual tracks you like on a "my wallet's bruk" recession tip. Either way, support UK hip hop if that's what you want in your ears. Got that?
