So Gone (Freestyle)

"RADIO SUSPECT' of the awaited e.p  THE JANITOR" ...

RADIO SUSPECT

I had some time to kill, so I watched all 24 hours of the music video for Pharrell Williams' great song "Happy," and it reminded me of Janelle Monae's great song "Tightrope," and that reminded me that  I should  make something I like and put it on my Soundcloud page for people to play at their DJ gigs (drums in and out), or their children's birthday parties. 
Also, let's all take Pharrell and Janelle's advice. (Pharelle Monae? Janelle Williams?)
Also is Janelle Monae single? That girl can dance her ass off.

I don't like most current pop music so much as "tolerate" it, but I liked "Locked Out of Heaven" from the moment I heard it. Considering the producers behind it, i guess that's not very surprising. 

It's great to be a DJ when pop records that are really good actually get popular. It's even better when you're lucky enough to stumble across sweet blends, which is how this happened as I was preparing my 2013 Red Bull Thre3style set. 

This version has the chorus over the double-time hook, as well as the  breakdown/half-time drums, depending on where you want to go after playing it. Insert cuepoints as appropriate, and choose your own adventure!

mojo essentials mixtape 009 by MASTER QUEST

In Hour 2 our guest is DJ Vadim who first appeared on Solid Steel in 1996 back in the Kiss FM days and has featured regularly since. He steps up with a mix dedicated to his love of hip hop, reggae and dancehall, and for him 'they are like brother and sister, children of the same parents, same struggles and desires. Different in production, but share so many things in common'. It's another perfect mix for a hot day in London and features music from Yelloman, Roots Manuva, General Levy, Cutty Ranks and Top Cat, plus music from Vadim himself ahead of his new album Dubcatcher which is out on BBE next week.

Check out the Solid Steel website for track lists and archive shows.

Ganz Mix on Gilles Peterson Worldwide (GPWW904)

Last night in Vancouver I had the great honour of competing in the 2014 Red Bull Thre3Style Canadian national finals. In a pack full of super hungry and talented DJs, I somehow managed to squeak out 3rd place! Every single DJ in the competition this year was a KILLER (no surprise). Huge respect to runner-up Plaeboi, and your 2014 Canadian champion C-Sik who is on his way to Baku Azerbaijan for the world finals, where he will be inflicting some serious damage, believe me.

For a variety of reasons I didn't quite manage to deliver the best possible version of my set, so before the live recording hits the internet, I thought I’d share the “what it ought to have sounded like is…” version here, haha (recorded in a practice space hours before the competition). I think it’s a lot of fun, and I hope you enjoy it  

https://soundcloud.com/adamdoubleyou/red-bull-thre3style-2014-canadian-national-finals-set-rehearsal-recording

Now off to Bastid's BBQ Vancouver to eat good food, listen to great music and hang out with my DJ homies (Finally the Canadian Thre3style DJs can go outside and enjoy summer, haha! [except you C-Sik, get back to work!)

Thanks to my family and everyone who lent a hand (it's always a team effort!), and as always to Red Bull for putting this event on and elevating DJ culture worldwide! #RB3STYLE

REVEIW:
The interestingly named Youthful Implants make their debut here on Ghetto Funk. It's a perfect match as the label's mantra is "we bring the boom" and with "Hold That Gyal" there's a lot of boom indeed. The original sees wobbly bass wrestle with a loose breakbeat while the Ragga Twins spit out some pretty anthemic lyrics. Elsewhere Skulleee drops some serious post dubstep robot rhythms and Tom Showtime & DJ Maars change tack, delivering a Summery Ska joint that even throws in a bit of House Of Pain for maximum party effect.

Original Heroes Mixtape vol. 1 - Trainer Trouble - Its all black 'n' white

My Bboy edit for http://soundcloud.com/kept-records/flaximus enjoy!

Composed by F. Martinez
Additional remix & production by David Hanke

"Matasuna Records" kicks off 2021 with another 7inch. This record features two remixes by German DJ and producer "David Hanke" aka "Renegades Of Jazz", for Afro-latin Funk bands "Brownout" and "Jungle Fire". Brownout's remix was first released in 2013 via Paris DJs on a very limited run of 45s and quickly became very sought after. By painstakingly cutting every instrument's individual notes, increasing the tempo and adding in a punchy breakbeat at the end, David turned "Flaximus" into an up-tempo dancefloor hit.

Jungle FIre's song "Comencemos" that appears on the B side is a cover version of Fela Ransome-Kuti's song "Let's Start".David added some more Afrofunk elements to the Jungle Fire version and builds a bridge to the original Fela version with the additional elements. The Jungle Fire remix is previously unreleased and will be available on vinyl for the first time.

"David Hanke" has been linked to "Matasuna Records" since our early days, when he released his "Dem Juju Poets" debut album on Matasuna in 2017. Most recently he delivered a dancefloor-friendly edit of "Mawuli Decker's" "Mololi-Lomko" at the end of 2020, again released on Matasuna. David is constantly producing and surprises regularly with new musical projects, restlessly trying to develop and refine his sound. With his new label, "Bathurst", he created a home for all his electronic music projects. Bathurst follows the notion of not focusing on any formats or genres, but caring more about the electronic music Hanke adores.

Nine-piece band "Brownout" from Austin/Texas, was formed in 2005 by members of the Grammy Award-winning Latin orchestra "Grupo Fantasma" and have since become a musical force of their own. In addition to three Austin Music Awards, the band has performed at countless events and festivals and has regularly toured the U.S. also as highly sought-after backing band for artists like Prince, GZA and many more. Their albums and singles have been released on labels like "Freestyle Records", "Ubiquity" or "Fat Beats".

"Jungle Fire" is an Afrolatin Funk band from Los Angeles known for their authentic and highly explosive sound. They quickly gained attention of the local Los Angeles scene and beyond, which led to their first release on the Funk and Soul label "Colemine". Other releases have been released on "Nacional Records", "Paris DJs" and "Razor N Tape". Their second album "Jambú" debuted at #4 on the Billboard Latin charts in February 2017 which led to numerous features in several movies, commercials and TV shows. They create a unique Afro-Tropical sound by combining West African rhythms with heavy funk elements.
