Various - Best Of Movin' Records Volume 1 - 03-Aug-08 07:14 PM
No wonder that nobody wants this one here from the Trax cat. Trax Records has not only jackin sound. A1 "gotta get up" is a very nice deep house tune comparable with some Miami grooves like "gotta keep on" or Ralph Falcon's "every now and then" but first: this is a whole Movin Records New York license or not license track list, because there is no reference to. Second: the hole line up fits definitely not the catalogue of Trax, especially because of third: Take care folks! whenever somebody considering to buy this one because of the classic Blaze production: Phase 2 "reachin" on B2, the Matrix was in I dont now where, but the song sounds like shabby of quality. Poor genius reachin song! the other three are alright but "reachin" was different added here. Original Artist Tracklist:
A1: Children Of A Deeper Society aka Elements Of Life 1994 A2: Libby Jones 1993 B1: Nyles Arrington B2: Phase 2 original formation of Blaze 1988

Committee Of 3 / Airtight Garage - Sign Of The Power / Something For The Dreads - 30-May-08 03:09 AM
Committee Of 3 "sign the power" use the sample of Dr. Buzzards' Original Savannah Band "sunshower" from the legendary Album Dr. Buzzard's Original Savannah Band. Airtight Garage Present "something for the dreads" is a typical Italian deep house, use a 45rpm vox sample "dip dip dim is over there" I guess the record is from 1993 as i was regular dancing that time at Club Dei Nove Nove (Gabicce - Italy) and DJ Marcellino was playing that.

Little Sister - You're The One (Parts I & II) - 21-May-08 06:02 AM
Hey New Yorkers, you guys where you at? I had to indicate here far away from your history but essential to be announced: An evening at the Sanctury (the legendary babtist church club until 1972) would always finish with the Doors epic "the end". The DJs name there was Francis Grasso and he almost single handedly created what would become disco's sonic hallmarks. DJs before Grasso played whatever was popular at the time. Grasso, on the other hand was playing African music or obscure British imports. Many of the records he championed were funky but definitely not funk. They weren't as aggressive in either attitude or rhythm, and they often sounded as if they were wrapped in a patina or alienation. One of his favourite records was this one: Little Sisters - you're the one, I guess he had two copies and played part two after part one or few times in a row. The record was typically for Grasso's trippy pathetic style. With an almost demonic voice repeating the title phrase over and over again, a deracinated James Brown horn chart, and a heavy, plodding bass line driven groove that quickly reasserts groove's literal meaning as a rut over its metaphorical, rhythmic meaning, the track would presage Stone's move from token poster child for the hippie movement to dark chronicler of the African-American condition at the turn of the 1970's.

We all know that "Ten Percent" from Double Exposure was the first official twelve inch for the market. But here it is, the true background story about Tom Moulton's experience and his invention for the super sound single:
Sometime in early 1975, after doing an edit of Al Downing's "I'll be holding on", Moulton took the mix to New York's Media Sound to be mastered onto a seven-inch metal blank as a reference disc. However, they were out of them and had only twelve-inch blanks left, so Moulton and engineer Jose Rodriguez used one of those instead. "Oh, my God, boy was that so hot", Moulton enthuses, remembering the sound when they first played the twelve-inch. "It just made the regular forty-fives sound like such shit. The levels were so much... the dynamic, the bass, the everything, etc... (note: complete text at Peter Shapiro's book "the secret history of disco" turn the beat around; P/45) For Moulton's next edit, "So much for love" by Moment of Truth for the Roulette label, he went one step further and gave some test pressings to DJs like Richie Kaczor and David Rodriguez. Although not released commercially until 1976 (by Salsoul) this was the very first twelve inch single. And Al Downing's acetate the frankenstein of the twelve inch invention.
By the way did you know that before Double Exposure's "ten percent" there were 136 promotional twelve-inches printed, mostly by Salsoul, Warner, Atlantic. For DJ's only, from june 1975 to may 1976 when Walter Gibbons did the first mix for Double Exposure's "ten percent".

DMX Krew - Nu Romantix - 09-Jan-08 05:59 PM
"Come To Me" is the ultimate electro song since today. Written and produced by himself, the text speaks for itself: Come to me, let me hold you in my arms. I'll keep you safe, I'll keep you from harm. Come to me, just for tonight. I'll care for you, be there for you, and you know I wont ever be untrue. Come to me! Come to me, dont be afraid. Stay with me, and never go away. Dance with me, we'll be okay, because I know where you want to go. I'll take you there, take you anywhere. Come to me!
A true sad song, beautiful, full of charm. This Album heal you if you have a bad time. It helps you forever. Believe me, you will be in love with this Album, especially girls react totally crazy about this song. I don't know Edward, what you did here is genius.
Check out also "You're Not There" or "End Of The Night".
