Mag). The shows are archived and can be listened to at any time via

Jimmy is the label boss of Mofo Recordings, the label fronted by Mofo
Magazine, who have put out releases by Dirty Habit, Platinum Mules,
B-Phreak and Beat Assassins. Jimmy describes the label as championing
tech funk, block party breaks and high-octane breakbeat with a hip-hop
edge. The label was nominated as Breakthrough label at the 2007 Breakbeat
Awards at Fabric.
Jimmy produces breakbeat under the moniker of Beat Assassins alongside
DJ Wooz (ex UK DMC champion). Their remixes and tracks have caught the
imagination of the breakbeat scene and beyond by the incredible phat
induced sub-bass frequencies the boys manage to pack into their kicks
and snares resulting in one of the phattest breakbeat sounds to emerge
from the UK. As their production evolved, the hip-hop influences could
not be contained. Wooz was one half of the 2002 UK DMC championship
team The Flaredycats while Jimmy has been checking hip-hop tunes since
Grandmaster Flash first dropped the Message. Monster kuts by the Beat
Assassins have been on Mofo Recordings in 2007.
