Welcome to the ninth MokhovMix: Future Funk. An amazing collection of sublime grooves and hip-shaking beats with a cutting edge. It’s funk gone futuristic, ready to energize your day.
The mix explosively starts with Hudson Mohawke’s “Overnight,” officially the funkiest and most exciting instrumental hip-hop tune ever made. The anthemic horns, cutup female vocals, and ridiculously lively drums sucker-punched me the first time I heard this – I was not ready for this much hotness. Brace yourself.
I feel you’re really gonna like this mix. Enjoy.
Like mentioned last week, I’m re-focusing Lifebeat to be about my music and your creativity.
I’ll be documenting my quest for an unconventional full-time music career. And helping others do the same with their creative passions.
I’ve been making a lot of new electronic dance tunes, which I’ll start releasing in the near future (and document how and what I’m doing here, of course). I’ll most likely create a new site to hold my original music, which I’ll link to here.

Wanna become legend-worthy? Do something that’s not only great but also disruptive and game-changing.
If you’re turning heads, disrupting an industry, and generally pissing a healthy portion of people off, then you’re on track to possibly achieving legend status.
Of course, what you do has to be great (not just good). But that greatness also has to break new, sometimes controversial ground.
Documenting my quest for an unconventional full-time music career. And helping you do the same with your creative passion.
