MIXTAPE 129: The Last Mix You Hear Hits Before Your Brain Splits is the one-hundred and twenty-ninth creation by the Funky Soul Burner, designed to pull listeners into a hypnotic, genre-bending journey. This mix is a blend of avant-garde percussion, electronic experimentation, and deep rhythmic intensity. Kicking off with Louis Carnell & Marta de Pascalis’s entrancing “twelve,” the mix flows into Valentina Magaletti’s intricate “A Queer Anthology of Drums,” showcasing the depth and diversity of the percussion that shapes this journey. Tracks like Jlin’s “Summon” and Klahrk’s “Interference” delve deeper into complex rhythms, blending electronic chaos with an almost cinematic atmosphere.

The journey takes an emotional turn with billy woods’ introspective “Christine” featuring Mike Ladd, before the mix hits its peak with LL COOL J’s politically charged “Black Code Suite” featuring Gambian kora virtuoso Sona Jobarteh, a standout moment where hip hop, West African sounds, and Q-Tip’s production prowess converge. Mark Guiliana’s cerebral jazz drumming in “Just Listen” and “Hero Soup” anchors the mix with technical precision, while the atmospheric dub of Dub Colossus closes the mix with a meditative, world-encompassing vibe. At just over an hour, this mixtape pulls you through a range of soundscapes and emotions, offering an immersive, auditory experience that lingers long after the final track fades. It’s not the last mix, but it may be the one that rewires your auditory senses, causing a positive mental schism!
