Rare Grooves Mix Vol. 5 (the very best of rare grooves music)

En 2020, j’avais amorcé une exploration : celle des titres hors album, ces morceaux orphelins qui flottent entre les sillons, souvent oubliés des anthologies. Puis le temps a filé, et le sujet s’est évanoui quelque part entre deux écoutes.
Aujourd’hui, l’envie renaît. Il y a tant de trésors cachés, de fragments d’âme musicale qui méritent une lumière nouvelle.
La règle reste la même : seuls les artistes ayant offert au moins un album peuvent figurer ici — les créateurs de simples singles restent en marge de ce voyage. 😊
Parmi ces joyaux, on croise Inner Life, G.Q., Booker Newberry, Edwin Starr, et bien d’autres encore….

EXPERIMENT #030 / INDIE DANCE

DJ, producer, remixer. AKA GHA.

🎶 on Rave Muzik 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿/🇩🇪, Electric Honey 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿, Dancefloor Impact Research 🇦🇷, Gabberhead Gold 🇳🇱, Wicked Records 🇳🇱, Dwarf Records 🇳🇱, Sound Core Picker (Traxtorm) 🇮🇹

DJ | Producer | Soul Provider | Matasuna Records | The FunkBro Show

Retro Roland Riso, has over 25 years of club experience behind the decks, with a true passion for all things funky, filled with soul and truly groovy.

As a toddler, he'd spend countless hours enjoying his parents' eclectic record cabinet; listening to artists such as The Beatles, Sergio Mendes, Sly & The Family Stone, The Turtles, Taj Mahal, even The Osmonds and Bay City Rollers.  Little did his folks realize, Roland snagged a few of those gems over the years to add to his impressive collection.  

While fully immersed in listening to music, he began learning piano at 6 years old, which inevitably launched his love to create and produce.

Once considered the "Hardest Working DJ in Philly", Retro Roland was spinning 5-6 residencies on a weekly basis, including a highly regarded internet radio show, "Sounds of The True School".  During his 4 year run, Mr. Riso's guests included Ursula Rucker, The Last Emperor, Rich Medina and Mpozi Tolbert.

He also ran a successful monthly Jazz and Soul Record Show, which was widely popular amongst record collectors, DJ's and producers, including Cash Money, Jazzy Jeff and Quest Love.

Riso also helped engineer Cozmic Cat's legendary Philadelphia party, "Groove Lounge", which brought musicians, vocalists and DJ's a platform to perform in united, rhythmic harmony, which featured a then unknown, Jill Scott.

As an URB Magazine mixtape runner-up, The Soul Provider has shared the bill with incredible performers, including Afrika Bambaataa, Felix Da Housecat, Dubtribe, King Britt, DJ Craze, Vikter Duplaix, house pioneer Robert Owens and the legendary Barbara Tucker.  He recently opened up for Grammy nominated artist, Flo-Rida.

A number of Retro's remixes are in regular rotation on The Craig Charles Funk and Soul Show, featured on BBC Radio 6, with funk 45 releases on Matasuna Records.  Plus, Roland hosts a weekly music broadcast, The FunkBro Show, on RadioActiveFM.

Notorious for working the crowd and rocking the dance floor, Riso maximizes every opportunity to drop a funky "Retro Roland Riso" remix, morphing the room into a sweaty, swanky frenzy!

💌 BOOKING/INQUIRIES : blaster.wav@gmail.com

From 1980 to 1992, I set Belgian nights alight behind the decks of legendary clubs—Spicy, Zoo, H₂O, Bush. Under the name Funky Town Brabant, I made dance floors vibrate to the rhythm of Funk, Soul, R&B, slow jams... There, music wasn't just a sound, it was a fever, a memory, a way of existing.

Just a solo artist doing what makes me feel good and sharing it with the world.  Like and Share not to make me famous but just to make my day.

I've been making Hip-hop music for over 10+ years now. music is my passion, that comes from the heart.
