This one is more of an edit really than anything else, and is tribute to the musical genius and explorative nature of Ani Difranco as an artist, this one features legendary saxophonist Maceo Parker and his son Corey Parker rapping.

Jazzy Hip Hop 93 bpm

Swing (NRNFH Bootleg)

A remix entered into a remix contest that didn't win and wasn't chosen.  You know what that means, it means it gets released into the wild unknown to wreak a pleasant havoc across the world, unfolding stories of the underground deep beneath disco balls of seemingly divine influence.

Deep House 125 bpm

Rain a Fall (NRNFH Bootleg)

This remix was originally commissioned to "not sound like a remix."  They wanted it to sound a little thicker and to add a twist to it somehow.  The twist came by squeezing a few drops of jazzy juice from the tender tenor saxophone of John Juster, LA house music legend.  To see John slink around a dance floor is one thing, but to hear him become the panther is quite another.

Vocal Jazz Dance 126 bpm

Nobody but Me (NRNFH Bootleg)

This remix seemed to be a winner on dance floors but was rejected by the label, relegating it to the depths of the DJ underground, destined to live on only within the hard drives of those who know, released from time to time for good behavior to get exercise on the dance floor.  Included in this remix are "Sweet Dreams" by the Eurythmics as well as Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.'s "I Have a Dream Speech."  These two together are a dance floor's dream come true.

I Have A Sweet Dream (NRNFH Bootleg)

A bootleg mix of Brittany Howard's bonus track from the soundtrack of the movie "Joy" with Jennifer Lawrence and Bradley Cooper.  Nothing feels as good as feeling free, and the vibe in the original song proved it by inspiring this mix.

Joy Movie Soundtrack (Bonus Track)

I Feel Free (NRNFH Bootleg)

This track started out as a bootleg and then grew up to become a real life piece of music when released as an original production on Balanced Records, a collaboration between Fr33dom People and Rise Ashen.  In this bootleg version of "I Choose Love" the groove in the back is being supplied by Mord Fustang with their offering, "Flip the Bacon."

I Choose Love  (NRNFH Bootleg)

This mix is inspired by the speech made by Gary Cooper in the 1940's movie "Meet John Doe" - the words are strewn over a brilliant and thickly woven blanket of beats called "You Don't" by the group Those Beats.

Hope of John Doe  (NRNFH Bootleg)

A reworked, re-edited, reimagined take on MFSB's "Love is the Message" featuring the vocal prowess of Jason Jinx from his release "Bring Back that Feeling."  This is elbow music at it's finest, the kind of jam that you don't dare put on your toast because it tastes so good on the dance floor.

Bring Back the Love (NRNFH Bootleg)

An unreleased gem featuring the legendary spoken word vocalist Rob Wilson, the voice behind Eddie Amador's iconic classic "House Music."  Originally recorded by for an Original release, this vocal never saw the light of day, so now it thrives and delights in the night, as a drop within an ocean of undiscovered music.

Deep, Funky, House 125 bpm

House is Love  (NRNFH Bootleg)

This was an unreleased remix that was rejected by a Commune of Manatees for reasons unknown, and they didn't even say thank you, which was not only weird but also meant, as a result, the work must be released, to grow a life of its own as it bounds through time, unbounded by the acceptance of anyone else.  Could this be a real release one day..."I Can Dream."

I Can Dream (NRNFH Bootleg)

The most clever bootleg of the bunch, this tune has layers of intention baked in, a lasagna of dance floor influence if you will.  What layers you ask?  The vocal is "Ebony and Ivory" from Paul and Stevie, which is laid over the David Harness remix of "Black Music" by Franky Boissy which features Roland Clark - on top of all that, there's an introduction  and breakdown by Fatcamp from a song called "Where the Rainbow Ends."  This one requires a dance floor doctor to dissect it.

Ebony Ivory (NRNFH Bootleg)

Inspired by The Speakeasies' Swing Band! and their song "Liquid Paradise," this is the sort of cheery stomper I like to play at the end of the night when the lights come on.  It's funny, even a song about alcohol can be turned into a love song to the Divine with the right perspective.

Liquid Paradise (NRNFH Bootleg)

Cutting my ravers teeth in the middle of a P.L.U.R. world I fell in love with The Chem's back in the 90's.  When their latest album dropped, I have to admit I was excited...until I listened through to the whole thing and discovered it was a bit more artistic than I was hoping.  With that being said, I did find about 30 seconds of unmitigated funk within the song "No Reason" that simply had to have something done with it.  We took it into the shop, chopped off the bumpers, stripped down the paint and put on a fresh coat of funky vocals, compliments of the timeless and delicious diva, Loleatta Holloway.  Dang this is gritty!!!

No Reason (NRNFH Bootleg)

A long time did I ride the wind with the wild mice, those furry little travelers, pretending to be geese, and the great flapping of their feathered hearts did keep us all afloat on that tumultuous breath that was circling the Earth.  I didn't have the heart to tell them they were wingless, I was afraid they would no longer be able to fly.
