I Like It - Ooo Aaa (Paxico Radio Mix)

DJ duo I Like It aka Waichi and JackEO take the reigns for the latest edition of Paxico Radio with the Ooo Aaa mix. The 34-minute set from The Interlude party founders is a mix of original samples, experimental joints and absolute classics. The eclectic collection of tracks includes selections from Hiatus Kaiyote, Talos, Quarteto Em Cy, Sade and Tall Black Guy.

We've wanted to do a mix of songs connected by their use of Ooos and Aaas for a while. When Paxico invited us to do a mix, we knew it was the perfect opportunity, as they're a label known for just the type of lush, diverse, experimental, tongue-in-cheek artistry we wanted to highlight. A lot of fun was had in the process. Maybe a little too much at times - but hope you enjoy. - I Like It (Waichi x JackEO)
