Dirty Mouth? Meet Dirty Beats….

Hungry for something a bit gritty, and edgy,

and just in time for the Wednesday

Hump Bump

I decided to dip my hands in some dirty electronic nuggets

Taking a chunk outta the “Fly Life”,

along with some introspection to reveal “God In Me”

I’ve come up with a nice selection of

hard driving excess.

You might wanna take a shower afterwards

W.O.P.A.W. A Tribute…

I’ve always had this affinity for good soul stirring Baptist Church rhythms, and how it’s had the ability to stir up the soul.

As a DJ, of course you want to be able to tap into that power, and also be able to celebrate that energy and passion.

I’ve had a favorite vocalist for many decades, Vernessa Mitchell, and she’s a member and affiliated Psalmist to my church. I’ve grown up watching her and her pipes bring people to emotional bliss with her vocal prowess.

Upon hearing that she would be back in town, and performing at a local church, I couldn’t resist the opportunity to have my ears blessed by her powerful gift.

I struggled with this notion for weeks, and nothing came of it, until BAM, it all fell in place today.

Original concept was supposed to be only her music, but that wasn’t a large enough body of work for me, and I’d be remiss in not including newer compositions from other artists as well.

Honestly, this style of music has been written off by most as heathen’s music, druggie dope den stuff to trip on and commit all sorts of sins to.  While that might be true to an extent, it doesn’t have to be that way, and I’m glad that these women have found a way to transcend that, and also without being preachy or dogmatic, find a way how to bring the gospel, and a message of love acceptance into such arenas, and gain such acceptance as they have.

So I enlisted the help of Tamara Wallace and Oscar G., Funky Green Dogs, Mary Mary to allow this to be a big barn burning piece of revival.

I hope you enjoy it as much as I did

Yours in Groove…

Affiliating we will go…

 

 

 

During the course of my constant obsession with technology,

of course the incessant love affair with music

and the endless hours spent on the internet,

it only seems right that I take time to recognize and acknowledge

the companies and services that help me do what I do.

Each one has in some way shaped and molded my craft

and has contributed to the mixes you hear here.

Now what thank you would be complete without a

Mrs. Jackson-style

“What Have You Done For Me….Lately??”

LOL

Well, with that said, I’m sure that people will be asking as time goes on

what equipment do I use, have experience on, and where do I get it all?

That’s where the affiliating comes in to play…(ha ha naysayers…there IS a tie in)

Upon my webcrawling I found out that yes, when you visit my site,

or if you decide you want to acquire any DJ related tools,

software, or equipment yours truly can receive

nominal compensation for your purchasing consideration.

This will greatly help to off set the cost of production, procurement, and publishing.

Watch this space for future developments and links in the coming weeks for the affiliate links.

In the meantime, lets do some product placement shall we?

And no, this is by no means a complete or exhaustive list, but this will keep you busy for now…

Angry Mix arrives finally

After playing around with the notion,

after needing an outlet for wild aggression

I finally got the time and space to get into it sooo…

Here is the result

Be careful, it’s aggressive and deep.

The beats can get hard and loud as usual.

Salvo Me Dai…Disc 2

Getting into the thick of the mix

 

Disc 2 picks up right where Disc 1 leaves off,

Takes the intensity up a few notches,

and even refreshes the beat anty with some help

from Barbara Tucker of all people…

Warm up to another classic set

New 3 disc set, spawned from a preoccupation with a particular song,

this is the mix that just wouldn’t end!

Once you put it on, and make your way into disc 2

Not being able to turn it off!
