i was placing in order cd's the other day and found plenty orfmy r&b selection,basically these were the cd's i was starting collecting in the early 90's.
I was thinking how lazy i became using all these digital tracks on my pc and ignoring this treasure r&b tracks.Due to the fact that there is a lot of re editing r&b and hip hop tracks from the early 90's,thought to announce a wedding between  originals and  re edits
.Hope you'll like the outcome of it

A Jam in January, thinking of July. Charif on guitar, Raf on drums, Rome on the keys or Triton rack to be exact and Darkwah on the boards.

We got the power. My long time ex client Naturi Naughton breaks down her journey from being judged from her former crew as the least likely to succeed to the one to keep our eyes on. It's an amazing story. Nothing less than a powerful story.

Our resident DJ Edward Otchere creates a carefully crafted themed soundscape for the National Portrait Gallery's Late Shift events, making the Main Hall resonate.

Otchere plays a strictly vinyl set. He’s passionate about sourcing records from all over the world, to find the best examples of the rich sonic qualities of analogue recordings. He has been skillfully distilling 20th century musical masterpieces since his first residency at the BBC’s Bush House Club in the early noughties to his more recent performances at Brunswick House Cafe. He has provided soundscapes for venues such as SupperClub, Chinawhite and currently hosts a weekly show on Hoxton.fm

Late Shift: Summer Mix 2015 - Resident DJ Edward Otchere

We hear about the #BLM movement but rarely about its artists. Ferguson, Missouri native Tef Poe shares his music, talks about how his life changed the day Michael Brown was murdered by Darren Wilson, what happened on the front line of Ferguson and how that city's changed after a year. Tef Poe also has BARS. Like he once said, "this ain’t your grandparents’ civil rights movement." His album 'War Machine III' is available on itunes now.

The Tef Poe Episode

In the last couple of month I had the privilege to be able to travel a lot for DJ gigs and in order to find Fadoul's family (the fruits of this labour can be found here: https://habibifunkrecords.bandcamp.com/album/azmanah-salb). I spent some time in Morocco, Tunisia and Jordan. This mix is some of the music I found, a few trades are in there too. It's quite a colorful range. Disco from Algeria and Morocco, a James Brown cover from Egypt, a modern soul meets reggae hybrid from Tunisia, a new Fadoul track that the internet doesn't seem to know of yet and some other great bits and pieces. Come along to another journey to the funky side of the arab world.....
