Namo returns to the Rhythm Inc airwaves with a little help from Dday One. With his first mix for us back in March this year proving rather popular, we’re grateful to Dday for bringing back this L.A resident to the show.

Chin Straps and Dirt Naps is a bit more in your face than the first mix if you will, feature a selection of the heavier, bottom-ended dubstep of recent years alongside some mellower joints. Hence the name.

Without much ado we’ll let the music do the speaking. And be sure to hit the man up on his myspace if you like what you hear and what to know more.

We continue full steam ahead this month with the first of 3 L.A. exclusive mixes, courtesy of our man in the city of angels Dday One. First up is Namo, an L.A. area DJ who has put together a ‘Full Flavour’ mix for us that ticks all the boxes at the Rhythm Inc HQ and has been getting some serious rotation.

We’ll let Dday do the introductions…

“L.A. area DJ Namo, of Long Beach’s premiere weekly wednesday downtempo, hip hop, acid jazz and trip hop spot, The Downbeat Lounge. Last year he dropped his extra long EP ‘The Beat Book’. Based on what he spins live, it was only natural the album was full of deep, down-tempo heavy instrumentals, the kind you might need to pop a painkiller to enjoy. Beautiful, jazzy and dreamy, instantly head-nod worthy, extra slow break-beat with lots of pianos and horns.”

There’s plenty more info over on his myspace. For now though sit back and relax with over an hour of beats old and new in very fine L.A. style. The perfect accompaniment to the recent good weather and incoming spring.
