Get Ready for the Weekend With the Heatwave's Super Smoked Out Carnival Ganja Mix

Carnival classics from "a bashment raving scandal, a non-stop dancehall party like nothing you've ever seen."

I know, I know — you're currently sat at your desk sopping wet, dreading the midday run to a supermarket for a customarily bleak meal deal, so you're probably not as excited about the Notting Hill Carnival as you'd usually be at this stage in the year. Luckily for all of us, esteemed selectors the Heatwave have swung through with a 20 minute ode to the joys of…smoking weed.

Obviously we can't condone such things and we'd never tell you to roll one ahead of a mix but we think that maybe, just maybe, that's what the Heatwave want you to do. Either way — stoned or sober — it's an exhilarating romp through every spliff-toting light-up anthem that you've ever known and loved. Definitely suitable for one of those weird super, super long rolling skins you see in cornershops every so often. If you're that way inclined, of course.
