Listen to a guest mix from Wajatta aka Reggie Watts and John Tejada

In this episode of Rhythm Lab Radio, we had a special guest mix from the duo Wajatta (Reggie Watts and Jon Tejada). We also featured new music from Faye Webster, Amber Mark, Tom Misch and Yusef Dayes, RJD2 and more.

Wajatta recently dropped their latest album "Don't Let Get You Down" via Flying Lotus' imprint Brainfeeder Records.

The name Wajatta is a mash-up of the artist’s last names. Having grown up with similar musical influences, Austrian-born Tejada and German-born Watts draw from their love of electronic music. Exploring the intersection between influences and innovation, the two describe Wajatta's music as “electronic dance music with its roots in Detroit techno, Chicago house, '70s funk and New York hip hop.” It’s a sound that is both familiar and wholly original — and, like all great dance music, ultimately life-affirming, as Watts vocalizes, sometimes without words, the joyful energy of his and Tejada’s funky, shape-shifting productions.

You listen to the exclusive mix in the second half of the show.
