The Invicta Mixtape (Mixed by Gilles Peterson and Sam Bhok)

Brownswood Recordings are proud to present an extension of the ever-evolving world of STR4TA, the brainchild of long time friends and collaborators Gilles Peterson and JeanPaul “Bluey” Maunick. The Invicta Mixtape is a limited edition cassette format mixed by Gilles Peterson and Sam Bhok (Worldwide FM / Stay Put).

The Invicta Mixtape features an array of illustrious producers and polymaths unleashing their unique interpretations of STR4TA’s standout tracks. With a percussive stripped-back rework of ‘Dance Desire’ by Steve Conry and Takashi Nakazato; a funk-laced ‘Rhythm In Your Mind’ by Ashley Beadle plus Glasgow’s Nuovi Fratelli add a cosmic disco flare in the mix. Dave Lee’s rework of ‘After The Rain’. ‘Vision 9’ is reconceived by Melé’s rhythmic inventiveness & Delfonic’s virtuoso. Also iconic reworks by technopioneer Dave Aju, the spellbinding Demus Dub and DJ veteran Greg Wilson.

The mixtape honours the importance of Radio Invicta, London’s very first soul station running from the late-60s to mid-80s. The B-side contains the complete STR4TA album.
