Last week there was this web-word about Kito being the Australian Joker.
So it’s only fair to post about the producer and DJ from Bristol himself. Since his first EP Release in 2007 you could hear that dreamy vision of purple sky’s.
Plus he also has quite a creative style of mixing.

Best check this guest mix on redlights 1xtra show! Gotta love how he drops the Jakes Rhytme Dubplate, or how he fades into ‘when i look at you’. (Download here)
Joker and MC Nomad explain their approach to music: “I’m here as a Dubstep guy, but really i’m not making Dubstep,
something in beetween what Garage used to be like, whats called Grime now.
I tend to think of it like a scene and people. You can say you got Drum’n'Base tempo and maybe you have a little bit of Soul to it, but the people that listen to it is HipHop Culture, it’s HipHop.
For me they dont need to be changing their name. For me even Dubstep is HipHop because thats what i’m listening to, thats my perspective.”

And here is a piece of production, presumably from his forthcoming Album, so i can only provide the song as a radio rip.
If you are annoyed by the talking in between, then you probably dont know about Skreams Radio Show Stella Sessions on rinse.fm which airs sometimes on wednesdays between 21:00 and 23:00 (London time that is). Anyways you should always check the rinse podcasts (rss feed link). Strong recommendation if you slept on that one up until now!
The Joker bbc guest mix comes via www.n3k4.com, which is another advise for friends of bass music. Here’s the specific post with the tracklist as well.
