GMGN takes the listener on a journey swirling between melodic synths, haunting vocals, dirty horns, and fuzzy guitars, while never losing sight of the dance floor.

We have a pair of remixes from Superprince @superprince1 (Razor N Tape, Universal Cave). The princes of Philadelphia reimagine Survival in their Day and Night mixes. Superprince’s Day time summer BBQ jam will make you kick off your shoes and throw your hands to the sky, soaking in the joy of the sunshine. After the sun sets, we head into the club for the Night mix. The Afrobeat vibes are stripped away and replaced by synthesizers for this dark and gritty 90s house-meets-electroclash sweat fest.

Episode 12 comes from Lord Lewis

DJ Lord Lewis the Velvet Knight is a self-made mythology and a secret wizard of the underground. You could say for the sake of explanation he might be an avid record collector, psychedelic librarian, vinyl Disc Jockey, and host of the legendary Rumpus Room radio show on WESU 88.1 FM Middletown CT, which has been on the air since 2002.

That he also is one of CT’s premier deep cut selectors and his radio show, one of the hidden jewels of non- commercial CT radio, is unrivaled for its musical curation, primarily showcasing and breaking the best from the contemporary US and international deep funk, soul, jazz, afrobeat, world, reggae, dub and dance underground.

An exceptional music connoisseur and impeccable tastemaker whose show is truly a one-of-kind journey into multiple music scenes, Lord Lewis traces his influences to various music, dance, and DJ subcultures: from the original UK mod scene of the 60s to Northern Soul, NYC disco to Ibiza & acid house, UK jazz dance to rare groove and deep funk; ska, rocksteady, reggae and Jamaican sound system culture to hip-hop’s art of crate digging and the mutant sound and politics of post-punk.

Get yourself a taste of the mythology and check out this recent killer all 45 rpm deep funk and soul mix he did for his 45th birthday featuring a few of his favorite 7 inch singles from his collection. Then tune into his radio show where you will discover new bodacious musical worlds you never knew could possibly exist. The Rumpus Room airs every 1st, 3rd, and 5th Monday of the month from 8-9:30 pm ET on WESU 88.1 FM. Streamable online at www.wesufm.org and on the TuneIn Radio app.

+++++++++++++++
Straight from Berlin, two brand new party time edits from the modern master of breaks, Voodoocuts! This double A sider transforms classic soul and boogaloo cuts into club ready monsters.

“I want everybody, to get up, and clap your hands!” On the A side we kick things off with “Breaking Dog”. The drums don’t wait, with heavy breaks right off the bat. Then comes the instant classic, hands in the air, sing along vocals. By the time the bassline drops, everybody in spot is grooving. DJs are going to need to cop doubles, this jam loves to be juggled.

On the flip, breaks meet Latin soul with “Voodoo’s Boogaloo”. The dancefloor stomper is elevated with funky drums and cut into all killer no filler. Multiple rhythms meld perfectly, so dancers can step to the Latin boogaloo, breakbeat, or steady 125bpm pulse which is felt even without a 4 on the 4 floor kick. With so many ways to dance Voodoo has delivered one of the most versatile boogaloos of all time.

Known for his many cuts on Resense, Matasuna, Rocafort, Wonderwheel, Adeen, and Friday’s Funky, Voodoocuts is at the top of his game. Don’t sleep on this short run, vinyl only, 45. You won’t be hearing these cuts on Spotify.
