Buju Banton - Champion (Dub Brazil Afroqbano Remix)

Rara is traditional Haitian carnival music that uses the long, single-note 'Vaksin' bamboo flute - nature's very own sub-bass.
Ti Marcel’s rugged, hypnotic 'Nan point la vie' comes to life with Siwo’s one-take drum machine update, a sure-fire jump-up carnival mover. 
Additional production by Blackjoy.

Ti Marcel - Nan Point La Vie (Siwo Version)

...Soul,Funk & Disco foram  movimentos musicais que agitaram as pistas da década de 70 e 80, período que culminou a "febre" Disco Music nas discotecas do mundo inteiro.Disco:A música disco (também conhecida em inglês Disco Music ou, em francês, discothèque) é um gênero de música de dança cuja popularidade atingiu o pico em meados da década de 1970.O estilo é conhecido por ser o primeiro abraçado por casas de dança, denominados "discotecas" e posteriormentes apenas clubes...Funk:O Funk é um gênero musical que se originou nos Estados Unidos na segunda metade da década de 1960, quando músicos afro-americanos, misturando Soul, Jazz e Rhythm and Blues,criaram uma nova forma de música rítmica e dançante.O Funk tira o ênfase da melodia e da harmonia e traz um groove rítmico forte de baixo elétrico e bateria no fundo. Músicas de Funk são comumente baseadas em um acorde apenas, distinguindo-se das músicas de rhythm and blues, que são centradas nas progressões de acordes.O Funk pode ser melhor reconhecido por seu ritmo de batidas repetitivas sincopado, pelos vocais de alguns de seus cantores e grupos (como Cameo, ou The Bar-Kays).E ainda pela forte e rítmica seção de metais, pela percussão marcante e ritmo dançante. Nos anos 1970, o funk foi influência para músicos de Jazz (como exemplos, as músicas de Miles Davis, Herbie Hancock, George Duke, Eddie Harris, entre outros).Soul:Soul (em inglês: alma) é um gênero musical dos Estados Unidos que nasceu do Rhythm and Blues e do gospel durante o final da década de 1950 e início da década de 1960 entre os negros.No início dos anos 1970, o Soul foi influenciado pelo rock psicodélico e outras variedades, e artistas como Marvin Gaye ("What's Going On") e Curtis Mayfield ("Superfly") lançaram declarações, em forma de discos, com duras críticas sociais. Artistas como James Brown conduziram o Soul para uma espécie de "jam festival" dançante, resultando nas bandas funk dos anos 1970, como o Funkadelic, The Main Ingredient, The Meters e a banda War. Durante os anos 1970, algumas figuras do "soul branco" comercial, como Daryl Hall & John Oates alcançaram grande sucesso, e também grupos como The Delfonics e grupos do "Soul da Filadélfia". Por volta do fim dos anos 1970, a Disco dominava as paradas, e o Funk, o "Philly soul" (Soul da Filadélfia) e muitos outros gêneros foram influenciados pelo ritmo da discothèque. Um exemplo foi o grupo de "Philly soul" MFSB (produzidos por Kenneth Gamble e Leon Huff) ou o dançante Funk de Rick James chamado "You and I", de 1978.Com a "decadência" da Disco Music em fins dos anos 70, super-estrelas do soul, como Prince (Purple Rain) e Michael Jackson (Thriller) decolaram. Com vocais quentes e sensuais e batidas dançantes, estes artistas dominaram as paradas durante os anos 1980. Cantoras de soul tais como Whitney Houston, Janet Jackson e Tina Turner também ganharam grande popularidade durante a última metade da década.By Dee Jay Jc...Playlist: Vinheta de Abertura 1-Frankie Valli - Grease 1978 Disco (Purrfection Version)  2-Cheryl Lynn - Got To Be Real (Club Classics)  3-Evelyn 'Champagne' King - Love Come Down (12" Remix)  4-Emotions - Best Of My Love (Ultimix)  5-Patrice Rushen - Forget Me Nots (12' Extended)  6-Chic -I Want Your Love - Todd Terje & Edit by Dee Jay Jc 7-Change - A Lover´s  Holiday  (Hot Track´s)  8-La Bionda - One For You, One For Me (12')  9-Chaz Jankel - Glad To Know You (Todd Terje Re-edit)  10-Jimmy Bo' Horne - Spank (1980 Remix)  11-Love Unlimited Orchestra - I So Glad That I A Woman (Edit by Dee Jay Jc)  12-Atlantic Starr - Circles (Edvaldo's Extended Original Mix)  13-B.B.

Djeff @ African Roots

Olufela Olusegun Oludotun Anikulapo-Kuti's birthday is October 15. He was born Ransome-Kuti, but adopted Anikulapo in place of his slave name.  In celebration of the influential musician, i’ve put together a short mix.  If you’re not familiar with Fela, this should serve as a nice introduction. If you’re already a Fela fan, i hope this mix reminds you of some of the dope tracks he created over the years. 

There is much that one could write about Fela. He developed the genre of music, which he named "Afrobeat," by infusing high life and other African sounds with the music of African Americans during the 1960s, particularly the style of funk that We associate with James Brown. Fela's extensive catalog of original has caused some to rank him among the greatest musicians in the world.

You can learn more about Fela Kuti by reading Michael E. Veal's book, FELA: THE LIFE AND TIMES OF AN AFRICAN MUSICAL ICON.

TRACK LIST
1. Colonial Mentality
2. Unnecessary Begging
3.  Gentleman
4.  Water No Get Enemy
