Lors de la journée sans voiture du 20 septembre, Fm Brussel et Onda Sonora  avaient eu la bonne idée de stationner le bus devant le Skate Park des Brigitines …

Tous les mixes ont été enregistrés par l’éminent Koen …

Pour prendre le mien, c’est ICI.

Bonne écoute.

C’est un grand vide pour le quartier St-Boniface, mais un grand gain pour le Parvis de St-Gilles …

Le légendaire disquaire Arlequin a déménagé. L’Arlequin, c’est l’arrivée de premiers disques reggae en Belgique et les nouveautés reggae/ragga, un bon gros stock de soulful musique, du rock, des bouquins, des magazines, etc … L’ Arlequin, c’est là où, encore minot, j’allais dépenser mon argent de poche en plaques; où je continue d’aller avec plaisir. Bref, suivez le mouvement.

La nouvelle adresse : Rue d’Andenne 90 (au coin de la Rue du Fort) à St-Gilles. Lord Pose vous y attend.

Une bande-annonce pour un documentaire traitant de l’envers du décor de certains grands festivals wallons que sont Dour, les Francos et Les Ardentes … A noter que le serveur est introuvable et que Le Patron entretient la discussion … M’est avis que ça va saigner et que la polémique est loin d’être éteinte …

… ça donne une affiche dantesque et pleine de promesses … Jungle Brothers, Sadat X, Donald D, Defi J, Grazz, Smimooz, Lefto, …

Ca se passe le samedi 21 novembre au Vaudeville …

C’est ce mercredi …

Mon babysitter préféré, Uman,  a pris l’excellente habitude de sortir des podcasts de très haute tenue auxquels on peut souscrire soit par RSS, soit par ITunes … ça s’appelle La Bande Originale.

Le quatrième épisode est disponible depuis hier soir …

C’est ICI .  

Dj Spinna a décidé de rendre hommage à Larry Levan. Sous la forme d’un mix reprenant une partie des productions et remixes du Grand Homme du clubbing made in New York.

Ce que Spinna dit de ce mix :

"Here’s a mix of some of my personal favorite Larry Levan remixes and productions. Many people in the dance community already understand the role that Larry had on shaping the New York club culture via the legendary Paradise Garage which lasted a little over a decade. I was fortunate enough to experience Larry’s magic in the G the year the club came to an end in 1987. You could only get in as a member and luckily one of the older members on my block was able to make it happen for me. I was in my teens and it literally changed my life forever. I caught that bug…It’s something that’s embedded in your soul for an eternity. I sometimes hear from older members that I should have been around when he was really on fire in the earlier days, but 1987 was good enough for me. The sound system alone was something that I have yet to see duplicated. You could feel the bass in your chest. I remember riding home on the train feeling like I had gone deaf. My ears never rang again like it did that sunday afternoon.

I grew up listening to his music mainly on WBLS via Frankie Crocker and Tony Humphries in the early 80s’ and I have memories of going to my local record store in the neighborhood to buy jams like ‘Let’s Go Dancin’’ by Sparque and I got ‘My Mind Made Up’ by Instant Funk, both included in this session. As a New Yorker and anyone living in New York in the 80’s you couldn’t really avoid Larry’s work. Some of his work even infiltrated the hip hop world via samples with records like ‘Heartbeat’ by Taana Gardner, ‘7th Heaven’ used in Biggie’s ‘Friend of Mine’ and Central Line’s ‘Walking Into Sunshine’ used in the classic LL Cool J/Marley Marl remix of ‘Jingling Baby.’

Some call it Boogie, some say Disco, and some Garage but at the end of the day it’s straight up good music that you can dance to and enjoy, period! This is part one, more to come shortly."
