The Rogue Element – XFM mini-mix

With his second album ‘Lumina’ finished and coming out on June 29th, The Rogue Element was able to take the time to dip into his record collection and put together this mini-mix for XFM.

In his own words, “this is a truthful selection of music by the artists that made me want to be a musician, and more recent stuff I have found really inspiring, which is the point of the exercise rather than just getting all the biggest acappelas and sticking them over as many familar beats as possible which is what almost everyone else has done…”
