Welcome to the latest mixtape installment in which I highlight some of my favorite voices online and beyond. Today we catch up with DJ O-Dub, aka Oliver Wang of Soul Sides. Since the series began in February Soul Sides has been at the top of my short list. Wang’s taste and knowledge in soul, r&b, funk and hip hop is unrivaled. Below, O-Dub has cooked up an hour long medley of gospel/funk guaranteed to save your soul. In short, you need this tape in your life.
O-Dub is my guest this Friday during the second hour of the SIRIUS/XMU show. Grab this mix, bookmark his site and if you’re in Los Angeles, be sure to catch one of his DJ nights around town.
