Episode 89 saw me cram in a good variety of oldies alongside a load of new bits too. I took the route of starting slow and building up instead of jumping around the BPMs, kicking things off with my new one on the excellent Hot Gorilla compilation that’s storming the Junodownload charts right now. Building through a succession of new and old tunes covering funk, disco and a few flavours of house, I brought you promos from FF Edits, Le Croque, Sam Redmore, Reece Johnson, Chemars, Workerz and myself. 

In hour 2 I present to you a wonderfully funky guest mix from Madrid’s Da Groove Brothers. This one is right up my street - the sort of music I love but don’t know enough about… sleazy, fonky, lower tempo tunes full of vocoders, crisp beats and bendy synths. Really loved this little journey, and I hope you’ll enjoy it too. Don’t forget to show them some love on the socials…

Schrödinger stated that if you place a mix and something that could kill the mix in a cloud and sealed it, you would not know if the mix was dead or Phat until you opened the cloud and listened , so that until the cloud was opened, the mix was (in a sense) both "dead and Phat".

Out of the box.

I'm a pure Funkaholic. I grew up at a time when Soul, post-Disco or Boogie and Funk all merged together to create the pop sound of the time!!! Too many artists to name but trace the careers and discography of Producers like Quincy Jones (RIP), Kashif (RIP), Leon Sylvers and the incredible Dynamic duo Jimmy Jam and Terry Lewis....You'll find the core of my musical tastes...PURE FUNK!!!! Other than that...I also love and respect Dr. Dre in the modern era! (I also love certain DJ's like UK's Greg Wilson's Essential Mix, Mastercue, Danny, Kris Kay, Mixcoast aka Dual Mixers in France and my friend DJ Funkytown Brabant, Irfane, Breakbot & Lebron in France and Grand Master Flash in the USA! I also respect role played by Remixers like Francois Kervokian, Shep Pettibone and Producers like Martinelli and the pioneer DJ Larry Levan).  I was never interested in becoming a DJ (by choice) coz although 5 of my friends were DJ's, I was more interested in listening to the music and dancing on the dance floor!!! However I probably know more about this music than the average DJ from the modern era. (Key Fact)- while I was in High School, my friend and I used to get and listen to Mixed-Mastermix sets of Funk, Soul & early Rap/Hip Hop on Cassette Tapes sent to us directly from New York's famed WBLS Radio Station (featuring DJ & PD Frankie Crocker & DJ. Ricky Ricardo) and KISS FM. I've got fond memories of music and music mixes that were showcased during that ground breaking era 1982-1987! I've since formed a small group of my peers called FUNKAHOLICS where we listen to, discuss and compare Music notes ie today's DJ sets VS the ones we grew up listening to during our teenage years....(Although today's technology is superior....There's no comparison when it comes to 80's skills....)
