A Braxton Holmes Production

BRAX005

Braxton Holmes presents John Redmond (Redman)

People Everyday (Mark Grant's Disco Vocal) unreleased

i was supposed to remake Patrice Rushen's "Haven't You Heard" but could not find a suitable vocalist...then Daddy's Favourite dropped (I Feel) Good Things (for You) so i scrapped the project...some years later i decided to start my vocalist search again...then Kirk Franklin dropped "Looking For You..." this is an unmixed sample of what could have been...

Haven't You Heard

this is a random acid track that i found on cassette in #thevault. recorded at hair bear studio between 1987-89 not sure of the date because in the past i never labeled my tapes. roland 707 + roland tb 303 + effects... 

Random Acid One

one of my idols, Lee Collins. Disco Madness on WHPK. please keep in mind this was recorded off the radio in the eighties (1986 i think) on equipment from the seventies, then it was converted to an mp3...so it's not crystal clear.  enjoy. 

Lee Collins Disco Madness WHPK

from my personal archives. recorded at sound factory bar 4.24.93. i was in the booth all night watching a true legend at work. never will forget that night...

Frankie Knuckles @ Sound Factory Bar 4.24.93

this edit is my reproduction of an edit that ron hardy played @ 2210 s. michigan ave. (some called it the powerhouse, some called it the music box, others the "powerfailure"). this is the last time i saw/heard him play live...i recorded some of his set on a minicassette recorder...summer or autumn of '91 

Disco Fever Ron Hardy Edit

this complete instrumental was not on the twelve inch. there is a pause in the middle of the record that the mastering engineer thought was the end of that side...soooo only the first half was released...

"Be Grateful" Soulo Version (Complete)

an interview from back in the day. kinda gives an idea of how long i've been in the game and what i was up to in the early nineties. shout out to b96, frankie hollywood rodriguez and eric bradley for providing an outlet at that time that exposed the "mainstream" audience to underground music.

B96 Chicago

B96 Street Buzz Interview '93

recorded live @ the clubhouse (chicago) 2.24.94

Braxton Holmes @ The Clubhouse 440 N. Halsted Part One

Braxton Holmes @ The Clubhouse 440 N. Halsted Part Two

this is a lesson in following "your first mind..." the track for this "remix" was originally intended for dajae, in hindsjght i should've let her write to it...anyway ended up using it for this record...which as far as i know was never released...maybe it was too mellow...bass: greg gales...solo: k. fingers...engineer: tim ratliff (1996)

Soul Power (unreleased) "A Braxton Holmes Remix"

recorded in 1997. basic tracks for both records. this has synth bass and the synth horns were going to be later replaced by my uncle brad's (rip) horn section...i recorded the bass and drummer (which aren't on this tape) @ united technique in university park. rae nimeh was the recording engineer for that session...carl bean "i was born this way" loop on both demos

out of my hands/be grateful (demo two)

this tape is all over the place...but it sounds like i had fun making it...i even had an intro, lol...during the eighties into the nineties i played primarily disco and trax (on reel & cassette)...some of these tunes, like "time and time again"  by dj pierre wasn't something i would normally play in my sets...by the way, the girl who sang that record sang the hook on "summertime" by jazzy jeff and the fresh prince...

1990 mixtape

from a cassette i found recently...i can tell i did this mix for my son's mother because of the song selection (her favorites at the time "stay this way" "you know how to love me" "let yourself go" etc)...this had to be recorded in 1990 or 1991...

Disco Boogie etc one

Disco Boogie etc two

two of chicago's best in their prime on chicago's legendary wbmx. "saturday night live ain't no jive..." hosted by farley keith

WBMX Gene Hunt and Mike Williams LIVE

a braxton holmes production recorded in 1995/96. this is the result of my best friend regina and i (two revolutionaries) bugging out in the studio trying to write a song together...we had a blast recording it and it was licensed by cajual records for release, but regina and i decided the verses weren't strong enough and kind of corny...so i shelved it (kept the money)...i've actually over time learned to love it, i think regina is still embarrassed by it LOL. regina and i have written together on other projects under aliases...and regina has written with chantay savage and others...featured vocalist karen mccormick, backgrounds: karen mccormick and regina charles, revolutionary shit talking: regina

Time For Change (Revolution)

recorded 1995/96. borrowed sample from daniel wang...was going to actually release the dubs (yes, there's more than one)as a part of a cabrini-greens & cornbread volume...may still do that...
