Turntable Kitchen's December Mix isn't our usual mix. Instead of a heavy focus on new music, I highlight some of my favorite tracks from the past year.

I hope this will help keep your holiday travels jolly and bright. Turntable Kitchen :: The December 2011 Mix ( .zip file )(on Spotify ) 01. I Break Horses - Winter Beats [...]
When you are in the depths of Winter it can feel as if Spring will never arrive, and yet here we are, with the weather growing warmer, the days becoming longer and the skies often seeming bluer.

Aside from the fact that Khaled is attached to it, I’m On One is an all around fantastic song. Lastly, Sean dropped this single a while back and goes in on some of [...]

Jim Jones did a track with Girl Talk ? Sounds like an alternate universe to me, but the song "Believe In Magic" didn't turn out half bad. Nice production by Girl Talk, Capo's rhymes are tight, and they even threw Lloyd on there. Check out the song. JIM JONES FEAT. LLOYD - BELIEVE IN MAGIC
