It’s hump day once again, which unfortunately means you probably will not be getting laid. It’s OK though. Regardless of how bad Wednesdays are, there is always good news to be found mid-week here at Plugged Not Thugged. The third Plugcast in our series comes from one of our local favorites DJ TASC – undoubtedly one of Canada’s sickest turntable manipulators and dance floor agitators . We hope that you have packed some extra ice in your coolers because this one is EXTREMELY hot. In fact, this shit is hot enough to bake your ass like a mo’ fucking meatloaf. Put on your sunscreen and helmet now so that you can minimize the ass-kicking that this spaceballer is about to dish out.
This mix is extra special because exactly one week from now, TASC and fellow heavyweight Marcus Visionary will release “The Stash House EP” – their second collabo release since 2009’s “Sunday Morning EP” on Bad Concept Records. The 4-track EP will be the debut release for TASC’s brand new Spaceballers Music imprint. The release draws from it’s soundsystem roots with bassline roller ‘Grind Time‘ and the deep, dark and bouncy ‘Ruffneck’. The title track – ‘The Stash House’ – brings with it deep melodic strings while party-poppin’ “Drop” guarantees the ignition of an explosive jam. TASC and Visionary successfully fuse their musical influences on this EP to bring you steady house grooves with lashing subs that will leave your frame rattled and joints sore. Don’t sleep next to a monster – download the mix, watch the promo videos then head over to any major digital retailer on July 28th to cop this bangin’ EP.
If you just can’t wait until next week before gripping these tunes, you can fast track by picking up a pre-release copy like we did at Bandcamp.

The PnT crew is really excited to announce that we have some amazing exclusive mixes coming our way from some of our favorite producers. We just received an absolutely massive tech-house mix from our friends Curious George & The Agent (UK) as well as one from the First Lady of Beatdown — Lady Blacktronika (USA). We also look forward to a promotional exclusive from our hometown turntable champion DJ TASC (CAN), which will be available for download here at Plugged Not Thugged before his new EP with rude boy Marcus Visionary (CAN) drops next month.
Curious George & The Agent sent us this really sweet bootleg of The XX’’s tune Crystallised. This little nugget was featured in DJ MAG a few months back and I thought it would be a good idea to share this savory morsel and another little bonus before unleashing the new mix. Make sure to chew one hundred times before swallowing kids!

In preparation for the second installment of their newly championed monthly at Toi Bar in Toronto, the Toronto Funky (Facebook | MySpace) crew (Freeza Chin, Plain English and Marcus Visionary) put together a mix of some of the freshest funky heaters both old and new. To my knowledge this is the only night in the city dedicated to funky, so if you want to get your skank on be sure to reach their next jam on December 18th. I’m sad I missed the first one. This mix has been burned and cranked in the car for days now.

If you’re wanting more where this came from, be sure to check out Freeza’s weekly show on Fusion Radio Wednesday night’s from 10-12.
Bonus: As a little extra, a wicked MJ Cole tune I was feeling all summer that Freeza dropped in the mix. Garage don Zed Bias just kills it on the remix here, sprucing things up just right with an unsuspecting intro, some mega-lazer build-ups and a low riding funk riddim that all sit beautifully under Serocee’s flow.
