208 - Billa Qause

billa ballin'

On this week's episode of Thirty-two we're excited to bring you a very special guest mix from Billa Qause, a beat maker/graphic designer/MC and all round creative boss all the way from Athens, Greece.

We first heard Billa on Mark Farina's Mushroom Jazz compilation with a track called All Night, and since then everything else we've encountered by him has been straight up dope. His album Jazzova was one of our favourite releases of last year, and it's still keeping it's solid place in our most played lists.

As well as his solo project, Billa is also a part of Pad Trio, a collaboration with J. Melik and Kill Emil that's determined to bring the old school hip hop flavours back to the scene with a whole lot of MPC button bashing. If you haven't caught their live stuff yet we suggest you go check it out.

With recent bombs dropping on Riddim Fruit, Cast-a-Blast, and his own label Beat Quick, you can be sure that Billa's mix today is nothing short of head noddin'.
