Why Don't You?

Consider Me Part Of The Dust (Not Drug Dust, But Dust On The Floor!)

Still Rinsed vol 2

It's been a while since I posted up a mix let alone on Soundcloud.

I wanted to bring back a mix series I used to do called "Soundbytes"...and basically, the theme of the mixes are just whatever musical mood I'm feeling at that moment. The last one (Volume 4) was done in 2006...that's like 18 years ago.....sheesh!

With this particular mix, I wanted to revisit the R&B/Soul vibe....some new ones, some somewhat old ones, & some obscure joints that might've pass under the radar. I actually enjoyed making this mix. Since Summer has officially started (June 2024), I think this is a perfect summer mix to bump in the ride while cruising the shoreline, or vibe to it on a nice evening while drinking wine with that special someone.

A few of the artists that's played in the mix:
Ann One
Apollo Brown
Amber Navran
Blakk Soul
Darrius Willrich
Marsha Ambrosius
Mayer Hawthorne
Pat Van Dyke
Raheem DeVaughn
Sly Johnson
Tall Black Guy
Tyler Daley of Children Of Zeus

Hope you like it....

"WHAT IT IS" - A Rare Funk 45 Excursion

Denderah

Optimus Prime

From my newly finished album 'Sight Seeing' - a musical theme and variations depicting different eye conditions.  Using an initial theme, the melody and harmony are taken away, distorted or otherwise changed to musically depict a number of common visual disturbances and conditions, from the sparseness of peripheral vision loss to the hallucinatory Charles Bonnet syndrome.

Let's Get It

AIMING AT YOUR HELMET ACAPELLA 90 BPM

"We’ve always been curious about psychedelic rock here at FleaMarket Funk, and have dabbled in it quite a bit, but like any genre, there is so much to learn. That’s what intrigues us. We’re always learning from guys like Edan, who throw a psychedelic night at The Leadbelly in NYC, and from our good buddy Devil Dick, who has put us on to many a fuzzy guitar laden, heavy drum record. We are still bumping the Trap Door Mix from way way back too, it’s a classic and never gets old. Cut Chemist even had an eerie psych-folk mix he snuck in a few years ago. These are ones we can think of off of the top of our head. Enter Glaucoma_106 out of Las Vegas, NV. His series Threw The Looking Glass is a trip that we all need to take. Combining heavy psych rock records, b-boy anthems and hip hop samples, you can tune in, turn on, and drop out with your headphones on (or not). This is one of the slickest mixes in the genre we have heard in a while. Made from all original vinyl (and you know we dig that), are you ready to die and be reborn? If so, press play on the first track and let the music take your mind over. Using artists such as David Axelrod, Aceyalone, Small Faces, Sparrow, Ultimate Spinach, Cressida, Orange Peel, Ian Matthews, Mr. Floods Party, Parrish & Gurvitz, Elastic Prism, Open Mind, Airto, Aguaviva, Lloyd Price, Curved Air, Annette Peacock, Young Flowers, Shocking Blue, Colosseum, Silver Apples, Nina Simone, Tupac, Gloria Loring, Lodi, Illusion, Mike Maineiri, Beacon Street Union, Titanic, Steel Mill, Elephants Memory, and more to control the trip. We’re excited to feature this mix on FMF today. " - DJ Prestige @ Flea Market Funk

Where's that driving music man
Who used to wail out back
Never knew where he came from
Could have been a castle or a shack
He had a priceless song to sing
His music tell you where he is at...

I would rather be a plant
Than a man in this land
I would rather be a plant on this land
You can transplant a plant
Where it can grow free
But a man that's been transplanted can't
So you can see where I would rather be a tree
With branches and leaves I can grow free
If man had a choice before he's exploited
Then his offspring would do more than dream
Isn't that a shame

Consider Me Part Of The Dust (Not Drug Dust, But Dust On The Floor!)
