Review: Gerry Hectic's 'Lovely Wife' Mixtape - Competition Now Closed (LEFTFOOT)

Doesn't seem 4 years ago that Leftfoot, that highspot of Brummie musical eclecticism, were after a new resident DJ.  Never slow to get his leftfeet in the door, Gerry Hectic submitted his 'Lovely Wife' mixtape is an effort to get himself and his lovely wife back to the place of his birth.

At the time, the Leftfoot family wanted a DJ with his own identity to complement the wide range of music at their shows - with guests such as Hunee, Jayda G, Bicep, Moodymann, Henry Wu, Children Of Zeus, Horse Meat Disco, Ezra Collective, Peggy Gou, Bonobo, Caribou & Awesome Tapes From Africa -they were after (but not limited to) the following styles / genres: Afrobeat, Hip Hop, Jazz, Funk, House, Soul, Disco and Techno.

Well here's the Hectic's choice of then recent released tracks that he thought would foot the bill of uniqueness, creative flair and "relevance to the brand".  Enjoy!
