You were the best back in 92 in the woods in staten island and still the best now!

I'm attesting to : for without it, I would not have any reason to continue on day after day. The music really does heal and makes me have a sense of purpose.

FACTORY: 2023 & BEYOND - Raw precision from the Brooklyn Underground.  If the past four years have proven anything, it's not time to rest on anything because times have changed.  Factory is my mix-tape series from 30 years ago.  Search on Youtube "FACTORY 1 - FRANKIE BONES", At that moment on July 4th, 1992 the future had arrived.  So many years later I had to deliver something magical for 2023.  To manifest the desire to produce something that goes far into the future in my own lane.  To lead & not follow.  

Whatever higher power I have is nothing short of the ultimate blessing.  Not to sound silly here but there were many forces trying to stop me dead in my tracks, and yet I made it past the offense, the ops, the gangstalkers and whoever really thought they could stop me.

The music itself has humbled me out, that is why there is no speech or vocal content as an intro. The music as always should speak in volume.  The real home of Techno is where it is the loudest.  Thanks to All.

FACTORY: 2023 & BEYOND / FRANKIE BONES

Everyone is getting spoiled with so much talent doing their thing.  Tons of good music being played right now.  For me this cannot be compared to anything else.  Factory Mix-Tapes is now at 31 years old.  And with that came the experience of a life time.   But the underground remains timeless.  I dare to be different.  In these 77 minutes I take riska and I play new music.  Some stuff is my own & some isn't.  

I don't do this for fame or for money.  I do it as a means for survival, for without it, I would not have any reason to continue on day after day.  The music really does heal and makes me have a sense of purpose.  I'm good right now.  You will be to if you believe.;

This was the first 45 minutes of a 90 minute set.  I was assaulted by a Newark Undercover Cop 
from behind without warning.  This individual was trying to turn off the sound system off and I pushed him back and we go about 5 feet backwards into a wall.  Never once did this officer say a word and never produced a badge.  His actions put everyone in danger including his own team when organizers tried to pull us away from each other.  The music didn't stop until another uniformed officer flipped the table over.  Just seconds before this hundreds of party goers were enjoying the night and not one person posed any threat to anyone, peace & love & having fun.

At this point a full on riot broke out with uniformed police officers punching & kicking several people, using excessive force and handcuffing people.  A close friend and associate of mine named Alex wound up getting charged with Assualt On A Police Officer.  For just coming into separate myself and the initial cop who attacked me.  This officer needs to be held accountable.

Stripped Signal

You always have to be a student of the game.  Always.  I have been a great follower of the Armory Podcast so when it became time to actually do one, there was a lot to think about.  Decades of history place me as a “Techno” DJ.  But most people who actually collect the history of DJ culture already know, Breaks have always been a part of my history.  Now my first impulse was to play cool guy and go collect the hottest breaks I could find and pretend that I could hang with anyone who came before or after me.  I’m humbled.  

I can’t do that.  Some of Iva’s mixes have totally blown my socks off.  I’ve watched Stanton Warriors Punks label become the Metalheadz of this breaks genre.  Then I hear someone like D-Bridge do a slower 130 BPM track, and it’s unfuckablewith.   That’s not a word, but it should be.  

So where does that put me with this episode? Bonesbreaks. It’s a series of vinyl which started many, many years ago as a concept in 1987, and went on to multiple volumes around a dozen, and were the first breakbeat records that fused “House” together when nobody did that.  It’s great to reminisce, but to me it always has been a sum of all parts.  So if 2000 Saturday Nights have passed and nobody cared to listen until this Saturday Night, Welcome to the future, my reality. 

The tracks here are from the new Bonesbreaks Volumes.  14, 15, 16, 17.  They are more recent then the first.  I don’t have to copy anyone else’s style in Breaks.  I don’t want to.  You hold down your lane.  I’m going to stay in mine.   I’ve been driving this way for a long time.  I’ve been able to update what I have been doing without losing the original flavor.

It’s quite interesting to hear newer styles built off the original analog method I always used. Everything is as it was.  Just cleaner and more dynamic.  Tons of crafty drums and samples, not Ableton or TRAKTOR and stem packs.   It’s more 80’s Hip Hop by design, then Trap or Dubstep.   But that is where it gets interesting, because we are out with the old and in with the new, yet maybe timeless, maybe not.  It’s subjective, so I will leave it up to you. 

Enjoy,
Peace, Love, Unity & Respect to all, 
Frankie Bones

Essential Mix 14-11

Essential Mix 2004-11-14 - Meat Katie

"Call It Techno" was the blueprint track which was written on June 4, 1989.  It was at the forefront of European Rave Culture and became a well known track in the U.K. & Germany.  The documentary "We Call It Techno" explains it right from the beginning and from that came the second & third Love Parade themes being named "The Future Is Ours" off the XL/Citibeat LP by Musto & Bones.  And "My House Is Your House" from the Break Boys which was Frankie Bones aka on Fourth Floor Records in 1990.

Frankie became the American Pioneer of Rave Culture on both coasts in 1990, playing Techno as a movement.  The Peace, Love, Unity Movement which in 1993 became PLUR after a fight broke out at an event in The Bronx which had Richie Hawtin as it's headliner.

And the rest is history.  If words can paint the picture here, the first 5 Soundcloud links will describe a DJ who has a journey of a lifetime & still is active in 2024.  The music that comes from the heart & soul of the Brooklyn Underground.
