New York City Vibes
Tuesday, 26 August, 2008
This mix was inspired by several things: The fact that the majority of the big rooms in this city are currently dedicated primarily to this High-Energy, big diva, Progressive/Trance/Tribal/Electro sound. While there's absolutely nothing wrong with this in my opinion , I have been missing that deep soulful vibe that House music was all about. It's still alive and well in here in the Big Apple...but it seems to have returned from whence it came...The Underground. I've also been inspired by the many wonderful and talented Producers/DJs...both Old School & New, who keep chugging out the hits that are world renown...despite having their roots firmly planted between Chicago, New York & New Jersey. This is to all the DJs keeping the funk flavors blaring out of the big speaker boxes...with one person in particular in my mind: My boy DJ I.V.I.!!! He's been one of my biggest influences, and every time I hear one of his mixes I get inspired to put something together with a similar flavor, but stamping it with my own brand of style. This mix is my own attempt to keep the New York City Vibes alive and kicking...a little reminder that the Funk & Soul is still pumping furiously...that House is still here, and going nowhere (at least in reference to what some of the naysayers may be postulating). Never forget that spiritual sensation that comes over you when you hear these banging choons. That's what House music is all about... I hope you get to enjoy this mix of mine (created in MixMeister Pro 6, and cranked out in one day). As always, all comments and criticisms are most welcome. Let me know how this floats your boat. 1.
