He moves through hip-hop, house and pop with a psychedelic twist and never seems to take things too seriously. When you hear his productions they're almost instantly recognizable as something only he could do. It's one of the things that stands out on what is the 50th installment of the \u003ca href=\"http:\/\/turntablelab.sbs\/search?q=DJ+Kicks+%21k7\" target=\"_blank\"\u003e\u003ci\u003eDJ Kicks\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e series.

The sound stays fairly hip hop and beats oriented with tracks from \u003ca href=\"http:\/\/turntablelab.sbs\/search?q=cLOUDDEAD\" target=\"_blank\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ecLOUDDEAD\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e, \u003ca href=\"http:\/\/turntablelab.sbs\/search?q=Madlib\" target=\"_blank\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMadlib\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e and Los Angeles beat scene regular, \u003ca href=\"http:\/\/turntablelab.sbs\/search?q=Mndsgn\" target=\"_blank\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMndsgn\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e. It's the songs that follow this beat filled opening that might make up the most interesting part of the mix. \u003ca href=\"http:\/\/turntablelab.sbs\/search?q=Broadcast\" target=\"_blank\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBroadcast's\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e \"Tears In The Typing Pool\" opens the mid-section with its melancholy bent. Koze helps along the transition from the beat head beginning to the mixes more house filled close with a mashup of \u003ca href=\"http:\/\/turntablelab.sbs\/search?q=the+2+Bears\" target=\"_blank\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ethe 2 Bears\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e and an instrumental from Cincinnati producer \u003ca href=\"http:\/\/turntablelab.sbs\/search?q=Hi-Tek\" target=\"_blank\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHi-Tek\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e.
