Finally, here's an older mix from Richards under the name DJ Zilla. I must admit that i only realised the connection between the hard, breakcore edged sound of King Cannibal and the drifting beauty of Zilla's mixing in the process of researching this post. This is only partly down to ignorance however as Zilla's mashed up hiphop sound is a mile away from King Cannibal's menacing basslines.

Zilla's One Foot In The Fire mix has been on my ipod constantly since i discovered it randomly in the blogsphere a couple of years ago. It has been hailed as a rival to Coldcut's legendary '70 minutes of madness' mix and with good reason; just check out the tracklist! The selection is eclectic but not random and each mix is precise and smooth, almost creating the impression of a single, everchanging track. This is what a DJ mix should be. Light one and put this shit on!
