This might be the saddest Jenkem Mix yet, and that’s not a bad thing. The most handsome man in skateboarding made you a dark but beautiful mix for breakups, rainy mornings and those days when you just can’t land a damn kickflip. There’s something special about this wispy-haired, lanky-limbed guy – something more than just his impossibles and maybe this mix captures just a little bit of that.
For the 45th installment of our Jenkem Mix series, one of skating’s favorites came through with a mix as refined and elusive as he is. Just don’t cry.
Listen to it below… or download it here.

This mix is more haunting than ever. Especially when the Cat Power song plays as it talks about sickness. I don’t think I have ever in my life been more affected by a strangers death than Dylan’s.
He wasn’t a stranger though, his death feels like a close friend has passed away. That’s how far his reach was. Dylan Forever.
