For the second in our monthly mix series, we asked Proper Songs label boss Ben Smith, if he would be up for creating something a bit different to our usual mixes. We’ve seen him DJ a couple of times, and the man is a proper selector.

Seamlessly mixed with a brilliant track selection, this has got to be one of our favourite mixtapes from the last 12 months.
