Listen to a short, sharp guest mix from Kwes

Kwes, the top South London singer, producer and multi-insturmentalist, dropped into Tom Ravenscroft’s 6 Music show on Friday with a guest mix that’s testament to his overall sensibility: starting with a dark, haunting interlude from the pioneering R&B collective Swing Mob, leading to brighter but no less haunting tracks from faves like Beach Boys and Darkstar and ending with an extended disco workout from Chic. All in just over twenty minutes.

Kwes’ latest single Rollerblades was released yesterday, the 21st of January, by Warp.
