The Mushroom Master, the deep house Don, the legendary presence behind the decks and the best person you could ever wish to have in your corner, Mark Farina blessed us with another magical journey through his world of funky, deep, and soulful sound. Hope you dig it!

Mark Farina - Fish Go Deeper - March 6 2021

Think back…
To a time of innocence.
Before the big clubs.
Before the VIP section.
When people weren't afraid of VOCALS in their dance music.
When getting down was more important than getting seen.
When EVERYONE on the dancefloor was your BEST FRIEND.
When HOUSE was just HOUSE.
Not just deep or funky or vocal or minimal or tech or disco or jackin' or tribal or progressive or electro or……
It's all HOUSE baby…
And we are HOUSE PROUD.

The original soulfunk LP by 'The Staple Singers' came out on 'STAX Records' in 1971. http://www.discogs.com/Staple-Singers-Respect-Yourself/master/150249

Please note that I do not own the rights of the original song. I made this edit just for fun and it's not released/published in a commercial way.

It's not about us...it's about "us". We're a community, a gathering of people who share a love for house music. Whether we were there from the beginning, or we just came in - we're all riding the waves of house. We've experienced the highs and lows, danced until dawn, and feel the pulse of the sound that helped define us.
Many of the legends who started it all are still out there, working their magic. They inspire us, and we pay tribute to them every month with events that go beyond just a party. It's a chance to connect, to enjoy the music that has shaped our lives, and to support the talented local artists who share our passion.
We want to invite you to be a part of our journey, to feel the moment, and experience the unity that house music brings. It's all happening right now, and we would love to have you join us.

Nordic Trax Radio #131 - DJ Heather & Mark Farina - Live in Vancouver - Dec 2019

So I jump ship in Hong Kong and make my way over to Tibet, and I get on as a looper at a course over in the Himalayas. A looper, you know, a caddy, a looper, a jock. So, I tell them I'm a pro jock, and who do you think they give me? The Dalai Lama, himself. Twelfth son of the Lama. The flowing robes, the grace, bald... striking. So, I'm on the first tee with him. I give him the driver. He hauls off and whacks one - big hitter, the Lama - long, into a ten-thousand foot crevasse, right at the base of this glacier. Do you know what the Lama says? Gunga galunga... gunga, gunga-galunga. So we finish the eighteenth and he's gonna stiff me. And I say, "Hey, Lama, hey, how about a little something, you know, for the effort, you know." And he says, "Oh, uh, there won't be any money, but when you die, on your deathbed, you will receive total consciousness." So I got that goin' for me, which is nice.
