OldSkool Remix

So Jr. Mac's Sess1ons of 2020 was just a guy who wanted to get out of his house and play some music during the covid lockdown.  It became a steady weekly event known as Beach & Bridge sessions in Brooklyn.  

Steady local and well known DJ's played every week, totally made history.  This track right here was created for those events and wound up being my biggest track of the season. 

The 1977 Rose Royce ballad got updated twice.  It was a U.K. Drum & Bass classic, when I gave it a new lease on life in this slower yet effective Bonesbreaks mix.  Download it.  Happy Holidays.

OZON026 Frankie Bones - Talk 2 Me

This is personal.  I met Frankie Knuckles in 1990 through his Def Mix partner David Morales way back when David was a resident at Red Zone.  We crossed paths many times until the last time I spoke with him in Miami in 2004.  My last question to Frankie was "Does anyone ever get you confused with me?  His reply was "absolutely not".  And I said "Straight white people are funny, cause it happens to me all the time".  We LOLLED.  Do you know the man went to his grave with my picture in his box on his Wikipedia page.   No shit.  That was the screenshot.

Leonard "Remix" Rroy was the friend who told me Frankie had passed away on March 31, 2014 and it was about 8 hours before anything on the internet surfaced.  Also being the last day at WMC 2014 and April Fools Day coming, nobody was believing the news.   I made sure they fixed the picture and went into the lab to make this dedication to Frankie.

Look up: Frankie Knuckles moment of silence Cielo 4-4-2014 - On Youtube.  I also dropped  the moment of silence at Cielo that weekend and by now the word was out.  We lost one of the greatest DJ's o our times.

Fast Forward to late June, Jes-One and I are on a 6 hour drive to the Northwoods of Wisconsin and he is playing me a new mix he made when the Stanton Warriors mix of "Your Love" by Knuckles, comes on.  I no sooner look to the east and see this giant Rainbow in the sky.  While first hearing the best remix of his biggest song.

Now ask yourself "Can Frankie deliver Rainbows?"    I'd have to say yes.

DJ HOKILLA - THE ADRENALINE MIXTAPE  -  *FREE DOWNLOAD*

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.

FRANKIE BONES - LIVE IN NEWARK NJ - MARCH 29, 2025 - POLICE BUST

This is my battle cry.  Now for those of you who don't know I have been a fan of Drum & Bass since it arrived out of House & Breaks in 1992.  That alliance has always made me a part of the KJ family and I still feel like a student of the game when I step out of my comfort zone and play genres I am not known to play.

KONKRETE - LIVE IN NEW YORK - OCTOBER 29, 2018

"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.
