• Mashit

    •  

      A Chicago record label producing body-moving genre-blends.

    •  

      “One of the most forward-looking labels.”

      - URB Magazine

      Founded Jake Trussell AKA DJ C to produce vinyl records, the first Mashit 12-inch sold out instantly, becoming an underground classic.

       

      Soon, BBC Radio 1 host John Peel chose Mashit as a “label of the month” and had DJ C record this session of Mashit tracks.

      The label went on to release 7 more 12-inches, 14 digital releases, and countless free tracks.

       

      Trussell continues to curate and write about music in the liminal space between underground and mainstream at MoodBling.me.

       

       

      “DJ C ‘Billy Jungle’ (Mashit) Four Stars ****”

      - Pitchfork

       

      “At the crossroads of the genre-blending, digital-remix and bouncing-bass-obsessed international DJ scene, … Mashit has a rep for pushing underground dance culture forward, both online and off.”

      “Mashit releases are killing dance-floors across Europe and the US months before their release.”

    • DJ Mixes

       

      “For the past 10 years, Jake Trussell [DJ C] has been a pivotal figure … organizing parties, hosting club nights, and spinning a riotous mix of jungle, ragga, hip-hop, dancehall, dubstep, bhangra, and '80s pop. This June saw the release of DJ C's long-awaited first full-length, the formidably enjoyable 'Sonic Weapons.' This summer also saw the Boston native move to Chicago on a mission to introduce third-coasters to the hyper-hyphenated style he's dubbed 'Boston bounce.'”
