M. Caporale & Friends (Vol 1) brings production new comer, Adam Gibbons (Boston) into the spotlight with “Truth Sayer”. This is Adam Gibbons second released production collaboration and it’s a strong, rich original undertaking that fuses an Afro House base line with funk and elements of the Caribbean – it’s kinetic and hypnotic to the dancer. “Truth Sayer” is designed to keep you grounded while lifting you to unexpected heights. 
The second delight came in the form of “Rain” with Montreal born Myles Bigelow. Hardly new to the music scene, the collaboration of these two is a deeply sensual movement of the spirit that doesn’t play it safe. Percussions coupled with the weaving of distinctive rhythms and drops reach deep inside to create the essence of dancing in the rain.
Massimiliano has managed to bring attention to a medium within Afro House that has largely been overlooked. The texture of Middle Eastern influences is clear in his collaboration with Morocco born Cee ElAssaad. “Arabic Bird” is a beautifully meditative production that stays in the air long after the last “chirp” is felt. 
M. Caporale & Friends makes a stop in Spain bringing D’Oke on board with “Olodumare”. This chant laden Deep Afro joint is a fitting collaboration between two producers that pour their experience and passion into what they love.
The anticipation of M Caporale & Friends Vol 1 is palpable. This is a release that lovers of music will appreciate for a long time and over and over again.

In 2003, I moved to the mountains of New Mexico. There was almost NO deep, soulful (forget afro) dance music happening there, however I did meet a few amazing DJs with that vibe and a lot of people that desired that sound. So I rolled up my sleeves and threw my own events. To help promote the first series of events called 'Rhythmic Soul' I recorded an all vinyl set of some of the music I was playing at the time, and burned 100 CDs. I just came across the MP3 of that set. This is 5 years before I launched Uhuru Afrika and at least 7 or 8 years before anyone coined the genre 'Afro House' but you can definitely hear me working to introduce that sound in my sets back then. Many amazing memories.

Rhythmic Soul : All Vinyl Set : 2004

Most of these tracks are available and can be purchased on Traxsource, Beatport, iTunes and more for about $2. Please support the artists and grab the tracks!

AdamGibbons - Ukubuya Mix

Recorded in 2006 at my studio in Santa Fe, New Mexico on 2 Technics 1200's and a Pioneer EFX500. This was a recording of a live broadcast on https://pressureradio.com my show was just after Markus Rice's show (Rest in Peace Brother). I truly enjoyed these 2hr global sessions.  The music was afro (before 'Afro House' even existed as a genre) and  soulful. I hope you enjoy. :) The name 'Soul Revival' was honoring an event that I produced and was a resident DJ for in Boston. The intention was to gather community to celebrate music and each other.We hosted artists like Ron Trent, Osunlade, Joe Claussell, Jephté Guillaume, 3 Generations Walking, jojoflores, Oveous and many more.
