Esto esta tan bueno, sentimientos del futuro.

After the success of "Danger Zone" the Midnight Express Show Band continued to tour locally in the mid-west. Terry Patton quietly produced his own funk brand on the side, Robbie on vocals.. TRI-FIRE STUDIOS. This is another cassette out-take from the powerhouse DUO.

Boora is known for his rare, but very high quality output. This is also evident on "Nautiqua", his new album with lofi legend Wun Two. The two producers take you with them to the sea and undiscovered land, where they explore different sounds from around the world. With South American influences, the album perfectly reflects the harmony of the two artists and is a successful mix of danceable rhythms and dusty relaxed lofi sounds. A real masterpiece from two of the best artists of their genre!

DJ Spinna - Best Of Sade Mix

It's a pleasure to share the first mix contribution of this new decade which comes from the heart of California's apostle of funk, Garrett. Interview (excerpt) down below. 

www.musicfrommemory.com

MFM: Hi Garrett, such a pleasure to have you on board. For the readers who've never been to Pasadena before, could you describe how it is growing up and living there as an artist?

G: It’s a suburb just north of The City of Los Angeles. A few miles from Dodgers Stadium. Home of the Rose Bowl & the Rose Parade. Living there was nice, for the most part. Slower than Los Angeles, yet..still in the same county. All backgrounds live there & also co-existed with each other in the schools & etc. The schools used to have music programs. The neighborhoods had parks. Still do. Yet, the park in my neighborhood was called Jackie Robinson Park. A lot of stories from the era I grew up in around this park, neighborhood & particular side of Pasadena aka: Northwest Pasadena. Too much for your readers, now, in this interview. 

MFM: Is it different now from back when you grew up there?

G: It’s different. My neighborhood used to be mostly Black. Last time I went back, it was mostly Latino. Downtown has now been gentrified. Small Mom & Pop stores have been replaced with big brand stores & eateries. Etc. Yet, all things change. Nothing ever stays the same.

MFM: Could you tell a bit about how you got to play instruments and where your exceptional knowledge of anything funky comes from?

G: Just taught my self keyboards & drums. No one taught me anything. It was natural. Just dived in. As for Funk; it was all over the place growing up; on the radio, my parents records, my neighbors windows, the cars driving by, boom boxes after school, etc. Hip-Hop was part of my youth as well. Just came later. Yet, I was also into other styles by artists such as RUSH, Gary Numan, KISS, Iron Maiden, Soft Cell, The Human League, early 80’s King Crimson like “Elephant Talk” & more. That was how we got down in Pasadena. We weren’t one dimensional as far a music styles. 

MFM: Apart from funk-related music, is there any other kind of music you're into, or maybe even get your inspiration from?

G: I like Detroit Techno a lot. Early Chicago House (particularly Larry Heard’s endeavors & related), Prog. Library music, Ambient, some Metal, & some Pop, such as artists like Prefab Sprout & The Blue Nile.

MFM: On your LP's synths seem to do the talking whereas lots of your other material include vocals too. Is there a specific reason for that both Garrett albums came out fully instrumental?

G: It’s a glimpse into my private life. I’m an only child. Didn’t really need to speak much. So, that mind-state flows all over both releases, in that manner.  

MFM: You're a producer and musician foremost. At what point did DJing start to play a pivotal role in your life/career?

G: Around 2006 when I started DJ’ing (weekly) at a party called Funkmosphere in Culver City, California at a small bar called Carbon. The rest is history. 

MFM: How important is DJing and touring to you? You seem to be rather selective when choosing shows, correct?

Garrett: All of my creative endeavors are important to me. I really don’t take any of them for granted. I’m not that selective. I think if anything is related to that; it may be that I just don’t wanna play myself out everywhere, every month! I’d like it to remain special when I come around, worldwide (humbly speaking).

MFM: If there's anything more you'd like to share maybe?

G: Thank you to all the listeners for your continued interest & support of my creative endeavors out here in the world. I sincerely appreciate it. I’ve matured over the years & thank you all for maturing with me. Peace to the entire MFM staff & everyone paying attention + listening.

MFM Mix 011: Garrett

I'm going to say it now: this is *the* preeminent Hip-House mix! DJ Spinna produced this clean, thorough all-vinyl mix in Late 2003/Early 2004 for a short-lived but very cool Japanese boutique Tube Records that specialized in CD-only DJ-mixes. This was part of mix series Spinna did for the imprint, released on CDR in very limited batches now impossible to find both irl and online. Mine is boxed up in storage back East, same with Spinna's - but thankfully my old friend Mas Yamagata had it and ripped it including the artwork. The artwork was all done by hand by with pens/paints and layout by Forest Stearns, an old college buddy of mine who was a big part of the Humboldt art scene at the time. I can recall Spinna asking me if I knew any artists and Forest did a lot of live-art shows at hip-hop jams and from '04-'06 all in all we'd collaborate on 5 different mixes and covers called 'The Basement Archive Series'.  Mas sent me the files from the original CDR which sequenced the DJ mix individually track per tracks (27 in total). I really wanted it to play as one continuous mix for the podcast so the homie Monk One aka Andrew Mason then offered to turn it into one long track, which is how you'll be enjoying it. I had to dig deep to ressurrect it and I know it'll be worth your time! This is super high energy 1990, 91 NYC club tunes. Mixed incredibly well on all records owned by DJ Spinna. I even re-typed the track listing out for you:
