Broken Beat from West London & Beyond with Ken Okuda

Copyright restrictions pose a challenge for our channel. YouTube automatically monetizes the songs in this mix, directing ad revenue to copyright owners. This means we can’t control the ads or their frequency. As a result, 99.9% of MAJ’s yearly viewership generates no income for us due to copyrighted music. MAJ’s mission is to share high-quality vinyl-only mixes. To continue, we need support to maintain our studio and cover expenses.

He’s co-founded the sound system and record label SHUSH, bringing a soulful touch to Berlin dance floors. With a dedication to spinning vinyl and a keen ear for contemporary sounds, his sets move in numerous directions. "This is a mix of some of my favourite Broken Beat – or bruk – records, blending classic cuts from the late 90s and early 2000s with a handful of fantastic contemporary releases. Discovering this unique and warm style of electronic music had a huge impact on me as a DJ. The heavily syncopated drums, sophisticated harmonies and catchy hooks always get me on the dancefloor within seconds. Most of the artists featured in my selection are very active and keep releasing incredible music." ------------ Cameras: - Blackmagic Pocket Cinema Camera 6K Pro https://www.blackmagicdesign.com/ ------------ The Mixer: Varia Instruments RDM40 https://www.varia-instruments.com/ Stylus & Cartridges by Ortofon UK: - Ortofon 2M Blue https://www.henleyaudio.co.uk/brands/ortofon/ Record Cleaning Brush: https://ramar.berlin/en/ Record brush “Joni” ------------ Equipment Provided by Audio Gold: The Klipsch LaScala Leben CS 600x Valve power amplifier Grundig Audiorama Hanging Speakers Revox B77 Tape Machine  Yamaha CR-2020 vintage receiver  Mordaunt Short Festival Series 2 vintage speakers Audio Gold custom Technics plinths.
