Leanne dedicates the first hour of the show to a close friend by playing some of the music he loved - hip hop, dancehall & reggae. In the second hour, she's beyond excited to present a guest mix from one of her favourite producers, Karizma.
The Baltimore native is a crucial cornerstone of the scene - having released tracks w/ DJ Spen, as one of the Basement Boys and has reworked music for Mary J Blige as well as numerous killer edits. He deftly rides across deep house & techno, broken beat & jazz and hip hop influenced electronica and represents everything that's good about House music.
