Cover Art + Mixed by Darien Victor Birks of Flwrpt
The Message
Just some real good tunes to vibe with the arrival of spring! I put this one together for parties, cookouts, riding music, etc. Not one of my typical mixes, it’s a bit different for me, but still pretty dope. This mix is made up of some r&b, soulful house, and hip-hop…included are tons of remixes, unreleased tracks, and some demo material. I really hope you all will enjoy…
Check out the sound!

Great mix. I think the Faith Evans song was actually done by Ali Shaheed Muhammad, not Dilla:

CTG, thanks for checking out the mix.
Great observation, actually, discogs credited Ali Shaheed, but it was actually an “UMMAH” remix, but as we all know, J Dilla did 75% of the UMMAH production but never really received his props, lol! So I decided to put Jay Dee, rather than UMMAH.
But the Ummah consisted of Jay Dee (J Dilla), Q-Tip, Ali Shaheed Muhammed.
Thanks for your comment!, thanks to everybody for the comments and support! Peace.
Finally got to listen to the whole mix uninterrupted. Good stuff as always.
Lovely Mix, Darien!
