On this episode, Jonny welcomes longtime collaborator and one-half of the dynamic duo The Herbaliser, Mr. Ollie Teeba.  Ollie is also part of Jonny’s Hip Hop supergroup Soundsci, with Audessey (ex-Mass Influence), U-George (The Hemisphere), Strong Island’s Oxygen, and legendary UK Hip Hop engineer ‘No Sleep’ Nigel.

Jonny and Ollie go deep into “What’s Beneath The Bottom Of The Glass,” a themed mix inspired by late nights, hungover mornings and drowning your sorrows.  Ollie kicks things off with a set of boozy grooves from Ennio Morricone, Asha Puthli, James Brown, Carla Bley, David Axelrod, Peggy Lee and much more.  Jonny takes over for a blended bender of beats from The Karminsky Experience, Ernie Watkins, Parliament, Eddie Harris and John Lee Hooker, among others.

Ollie’s group The Herbaliser have become an English jazz hip-hop global phenomenon, formed with Jake Woo aka Jake Wherry in West London during the early 1990s, originally inspired by a shared passion for hip-hop, rare groove, funk and jazz. and their youthful heroes James Brown, DJ Premier, Lalo Schifrin, David Axelrod and Serge Gainsbourg, among many others.
