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.
More Mixes? Check out German Nieves, Lucas Puig, Aaron Herrington, Riley Hawk, Anthony Pappalardo, Jim Greco, John Cardiel, Alien Workshop, Brian Anderson, Baker, Bronze, Brad Cromer, Alex Olson, Sage Elsesser, THPS, Sean Pablo or Jesse Alba.

Finally a Dylan Rieder mix.
Can we get a Mark Johnson mix?
March 26, 2016 9:00 am
YAH.
Most desired mixes
Marc Johnson— all around sickest/weirdest music in his parts.
Andy Roy— ever since he gave a shoutout to Necro/Ill Bill I just feel like his ear is on point.
Richie Jackson — he’s always got the underground gold
