Another good show, and another week done.

So here it is, a brand spanking new broadcast with some fresh new tunes that I think you’ll dig. And if that’s not enough for you, up comes some CD-R pressure courtesy of this week’s Urban Landscapes Guestmix. It’s an exclusive, and it comes from Aroop Roy. Born in the UK and now making his home in Japan, he’s one of the new breed of promising future jazz talent. Selected last year to be part of the well-respected Red Bull Music Academy, he’s since made a name for himself with tunes for Beyondjazz and Unique Uncut. He’s also a DJ that’s already been cutting teeth with a residency of Absolute!! (yes, !! = part of the name), Japan’s first broken beat club night, at the LOOP nightclub in Tokyo.

Roy was kind enough to put together a mix set that he says “is for the people.” Now the people can listen and dig both the choice tunes and the feel of the mix. Even cooler was the fact that he was listening to the show live the night the mix was dropped, so big ups to the man. Hit him up on his Myspace at http://www.myspace.com/arooproy.

Enjoy the show; will catch you next week!
