Back in 2001, Madrid de los Austrias flipped my "Cleopatra in New York" into "Cleo in Madrid"  In return, we flipped their "Ole" into "Brooklyn Ole!"  Programmed on MPC 2000 to a VS880 8 track @ The Bergen Beat Cafe 440 Bergen Street, Brooklyn... after hitting up Pizzatown! Nickodemus & Osiris (Chris Annibell) + Jay Rodriguez (Groove Collective) on the sax & flute. Grab it quick, this NikkiLeak will be download-able for only a few days...

I started this about 6 years ago and then got stuck but was spurred into action when I saw that Jeremy Sole had already had a crack at it. I kind of went back to what I'd done on this and thought it was worth having a go at finishing it. I already know there are purists out there that will hate it but where would we be if we didn't experiment a little from time to time? I'm a massive Tom Waits fan and have tried squeezing the original into DJ sets but it just didn't quite work somehow. (I'm still kind of fearful the man himself is going appear at the bottom of my bed one night dressed as circus ringmaster and carrying a grim reaper's sickle to dispatch me to the underworld for my insolence.)

With globe-spanning influences that touch on some of our very favorite genres and musicians, Ottawa's The Souljazz Orchestra and London's Sofrito make for a complementary pair. Both released incendiary albums this year, and as The Souljazz Orchestra prepares for a string of North American dates, the timing is perfect for a collaboration.

Utilizing the original multi-track masters (one of the benefits of keeping things in the family) Sofrito's Frankie Francis has created a masterful re-edit of "Serve And Protect," showcasing some of the fiercest playing on the latest Souljazz LP <i>Solidarity</i>.

The Souljazz Orchestra - Serve And Protect (Frankie Francis - Sofrito ReWork)

Long time collaborator and resident DJ of the UKs longest running club funk and soul promoters, Jelly Jazz. Also exploring new style of clubbing with Rambunctious Social Club project in the southwest of Britain. Recently returned from 16 months in latin America traveling with my wife and collecting sounds as I go with a Sony PCM D50 handheld field recorder. We made a baby in Peru who was born back in England last June...a daughter! So time is short now...I'll be fitting music whenever I can. 

REQUEST FOR HELP and ADVICE:  I see Soundcloud as a fantastic learning opportunity. I'm the first to admit I'm a beginner at production. If there are any half competent producers out there that can clearly hear problems with my tunes or things that I could improve on then PLEASE do let me know. I'm not proud. It can be incredibly difficult to get good advice about sound production so I greatly appreciate constructive criticism. Bear in mind I'm mixing on headphones at the moment. Also all of my remixes are additive in that I have to take the entire original and add parts to it. I can't take anything away because I don't have access to studio track files. But any help you can give me would be appreciated.  Cheers Griff

PS I've also started the 'Nueva Andina' group and will be moderating that to help promote the artists that are experimenting with modern forms of Andean music.
