Mixtape of the month: Sammy Bananas

Picking this month's best mixtape was really hard - tons o' good stuff!
Among the tapes just missing out were mixes by Plastic Little and our old friends MeMeMe, both on the hyper prolific No Love Lost Recordings. In a similar vein was the excellent new tape from Sinden, available exclusively from We Make it Good.

In a different vein, Riton has celebrated the release of his German-inspired LP, Eine Kleine Nacht Musik, by putting together this superb mix of diamonds from Deutschland: Zehr Gut!

But trumping them all (and thanks to the wonderful Get Weird Turn Pro for sharing) is this summertime mix by Sammy Bananas. Bonus points immediately for including Corona (see Memory of the Month), and extra kudos for the great graphics. Fave moments? The sublime blend of Happy House and Rhythm of the Night... sliding from Sammy's own Ladies into the irresistible groove of Treasure Fingers...Work Me!!!!...Get Set Go to Chromeo to Love Action - fantastic!!
