Fly Gypsy

Mon, 19 Oct 2009 15:59:00 GMT

From Russia to Jamaica. The much talked-about new hip-hop duo Fly Gypsy made its first splash in late 2008 with an election-themed single that introduced the duoâs energetic, guitar-driven sound to music fans around the world and scored the duo its first TV and radio spots. The group formally launched in July 2009 with a release of the summertime single âYou.â The video for the single was shot in Jamaica by Ras Kassa, acclaimed for his work with Sean Paul, Beenie Man, and Damian Marley.

Kowboy Kom, the groupâs vocalist, moved from Montego Bay, Jamaica to Brooklyn, New York with his family when he was still a child. Growing up in New York during the golden era of Hip-Hop, Kom was inspired by hip-hop artists of West Indian descent coming up in Brooklyn, such as Wyclef Jean, Busta Rhymes, and Notorious B.I.G. When he was in the seventh grade, Kom began to write poetry and rhyme. By his early twenties, Kom rose to become one of the nationâs best recognized spoken word artists and emcees, praised for his clever storytelling, signature style, and natural swagger. He has headlined numerous college tours, appeared on BET J, and opened for artists such as Jill Scott, Dwele, and Doug E. Fresh.

Kom stands apart from other emcees in his preference for performing with a live band, rather than just a DJ. A true musician, who himself plays guitar and dabbles in piano, Kom has an intimate understanding of music and infuses his flow with musicality seldom seen in modern hip-hop.

Alexei, the duoâs producer and its one-man band, grew up on stage, dancing and performing music. Born and raised in Russia during the tumultuous years of the Soviet Unionâs collapse, Alexei began playing piano and dancing when he was only six. When he was eight, his parents bought the familyâs first double-deck boombox and within a few weeks, Alexei was selling mixtapes in his elementary school.

In his teens, Alexei came to the United States as an exchange student and later returned to attend college. Moving to Washington, D.C. after college, Alexei quickly established himself as a prolific songwriter, a gifted producer, and a dynamic DJ, earning airplay on the countryâs top R&B stations. Alexeiâs unique production style reflects his diverse musical influences. He seemlessly moves from bopping his head to Lauryn Hill and singing along with Sting to ripping Nirvana on his guitar and playing an Ella Fitzgerald love song on piano. In his production, Alexei prefers to build tracks from scratch, playing keys, guitars, bass, and percussion himself rather than relying on samples.

Daisha Graf: Starry Eyed Surprise

djcomeofage@yahoo.com — Sat, 17 Oct 2009 22:35:00 GMT

Daisha Michelle Graf was born in Columbia, Maryland where the arts played a significant role in her development. From a very early age she began training in all different disciplines of dance including ballet, modern, tap and jazz. At the age of 5 she began taking private piano lessons and was involved in school chorus and plays. Daisha knew at a young are that she had a passion for performing and would sing and dance in front of her family with a fake microphone in hand. Daisha grew up with music playing throughout ther household and was pleasantly exposed to all different types of sounds ranging from Bach to the Beatles, Jazz, international music and Motown. Nurtured by summer arts camps in music and prestigious dance programs such as The Ailey School in New York City and American Dance Festival at Duke University, her dream of becoming an artist grew into an insatiable need.
Daisha continued her training by receiving a BA in Dance from Hofstra University (Long Island, NY). While in school she performed with the student organization, Imani Dance Ensemble, and was immediately taken by the world of hip-hop. She would catch the train to Manhattan several times a week to take classes from recognized hip-hop choreographers such as Rhapsody James, Luam Keflezgy and Jermaine Brown and became a member of Rhapsody The Company.
Music had always been a part of Daishaâs life, and dance was the perfect medium for exposing her to the professional music industry. Even before graduating, Daisha landed her first big dance engagement with pop star, Rihanna for her European tour of âA Girl Like Meâ. When she returned, she signed with the agency, Clear Talent Group and continued performing with world-renowned artists such as Diddy, Ryan Leslie, Chris Willis and Beyonce. She also had the opportunity to dance in the blockbuster hits, Step Up 2 and Step up 3D.
Surrounded by the music industry, a new love for singing and writing music resurfaced. Under the tutelage of vocal trainers, Craig Derry and Clurel Henderson, Daisha honed her craft and shaped her sound and style. Writing and recording her first song, âLove Set Me Free,â confirmed that being a musical artist would be more than a hobby â it would be her lifeâs work. With a strong work ethic and a naturally captivating stage presence, Daisha has already performed her music at various venues in New York City and in Trinidad opening for artist Annya-Li. She has a unique style that she coins, âalternative R&B,â a sound that combines soul, jazz and alternative music. Daishaâs talent continues to grow, as does her infinite love of music. She is excited about the future before her.

Depuis quelques annÃes une certaine musique fait son come back en France en douceur mais de maniÃre certaine : la Â SOUL Â. Elle est arrivÃe essentiellement par le biais de concerts. Des ÃvÃnements dans lesquels une plÃiade dâartistes FranÃais ont pu Ãtre dÃcouverts pour former au fil du temps ce quâil est devenu lÃgitime dâappeler Â La ScÃne Soul FranÃaise Â. Parce que SOULISSIME est le premier label entiÃrement dÃdiÃ Ã cette musique, il se devait de rÃaliser la premiÃre compilation Â Officielle Â tÃlÃchargeable gratuitement. Cette compilation rÃunie une grande partie des artistes de cette scÃne avec un tracklisting consÃquent de 19 titres. On y retrouve des inÃdits dâartistes dont on attendait des nouvelles comme Jango Jack, Sandy Cossett et Monsieur Nov, des dÃcouvertes comme Sabrina Adel, Leslie Phillips ou bien encore Shad Murray mais aussi des titres extraits des albums de Third Shot, Erik, Freddy, Rony avec le titre Â Jâme dis Â remixÃ pour lâoccasion. La compilation laisse aussi une place Ã des artistes Hip Hop/Soul qui Ãvoluent dans le mÃme univers que ces chanteurs avec des artistes comme Kohndo qui sâoffre un featuring avec Dwele et le D3CCPT avec Sly Johnson (SaÃan Supa Crew). Une compilation Ã possÃder absolument pour tous les amoureux de la soulâ

Akoma Aya

louisa.stephanie@yahoo.com — Thu, 26 Mar 2009 17:43:00 GMT

Akoma Aya est un duo fÃminin de la scÃne NÃo soul parisienne composÃ d'amies d'enfance et artistes exceptionnelles, Mayi, poÃte/slammeuse/chanteuse et Sissy, chanteuse/choriste.
Oui, leur musique caresse l'Ãme et les tympans de chaque personne qui l'Ãcoute. Une caresse. Une claque aussi. Une claque audiovisuelle et Ãmotionnelle. Ce duo Slam/Soul est une vÃritable alchimie, sa musique est imprÃgnÃe de beautÃ, de sincÃritÃ et d'authenticitÃ.
EtÃ 2008, c'est sur la scÃne de l'Etage que nous la dÃcouvrons. PremiÃre claque, elle est visuelle; Mayi et Sissy sont tout simplement belles. Elles apparaissent telles deux reines d'Afrique, deux reines urbaines qui interprÃtent leur art avec leurs tripes. DeuxiÃme claque: auditive. Leur musique ne ressemble Ã aucune autre : authenticitÃ, originalitÃ et technicitÃ. Elles chantent ''GuÃris", nous sommes conquis. Les yeux humides, nous venons de prendre une troisiÃme claque. Emotionnelle. C'est sur le titre "Art Organique'' que nos larmes ont coulÃ. La musique d'Akoma Aya parle aux Ãmes. Le message est bien passÃ.

Le duo prÃpare actuellement leur premier album et recherche un label. En attendant, je vous invite (et vous conseille vivement mÃme) Ã dÃcouvrir certains de leurs titres comme le trÃs troublant "PoÃsie" ou encore le trÃs poignant "Voyage d'une Flamme" (Et Ãa se passe lÃ : http://akomaaya.skyrock.com).
Akoma Aya se produit rÃguliÃrement sur scÃne, toutes les dates sont sur leur space : www.myspace.com/akomaaya.

"So Natural" takes you on a goosebumpy ride of jazz soul groovyness fused together with some hip hop goodness. Topped with a stunningly, delicious, creamy vocal from Ms. Bennett, this track is an essential for your collection.

"So Natural" is written and performed by Kia Bennett (Former background singer for D'Angelo), produced at Digisoul by Soulpersona, with John Manuel as Executive Producer.

This is a limited edition version, with new Digisoul mixes and remixes coming soon....

Wade 3: Right Now (the video)

Sat, 28 Feb 2009 18:22:00 GMT

In every generation, an artist emerges whose innovation and cutting edge style changes the face of music by combining different genres, taking music in a new direction. Ray Charles did it in the 1950âs and 60âs, merging R&B with gospel to create soul, along with Sly Stone and Jimi Hendrix who both added a psychedelic edge to their soul, funk, rock, and blues.

Armed with a varied array of soulful compositions recorded with some of the world's most prolific producers, David Mensah, UK singer songwriter is set to wow audiences when he takes to the stage to perform tracks from his upcoming Debut album.

David's music has already clocked up over 100,000 hits on www.myspace.com/londoncityrnb which is one of the reasons he was choosen from thousands of artists to be featured on the myspace homepage.

He has not wasted the opportunity to learn and develop as an artist working and performing alongside legendary artists such as Jimmy Cliff, Alexander O'Neal, Shola Ama, Damage, Billy Ocean, Ruby Turner and Roachford to name a few.

April 2008 saw the release of âFood of Loveâ as Mensah joined forces with legendary artists such as the 30 million record selling Billy Ocean, Junior Giscombe, Ruby Turner, Roland Gift, Janet Kay, Tasmin Archer, and Roachford to name a few. They came together to produce an album called âWilberforce 200, Change is Gonna Comeâ celebrating 200 years since the abolition of slavery. Proceeds of the album are going towards charities, Save the Children, Freetown Society and the Prince's Trust to stamp out modern day forms of slavery.

Mensah recently recorded the song âClose to My Rootsâ with the long-time Roc-A-Fella lieutenant, Memphis Bleek who featured on Jay-Z's debut album. âClose to My Rootsâ is the title track for a project put together by top US producer Coptic who rose to global success with records produced with Biggy, P.Diddy, Snoop Dog, Faith Evans, Bobby Valentino, Trey Songs, Memphis Bleek, Black Rob, Ludacris and Ice Cube. Some of the highlights of Coptic's smash hits have included âCome to Meâ (Remix) for P.Diddy, Big, and Nicole, as well as the worldwide #1 hit âI Need a Girlâ with P.Diddy and Usher.

Hassanah and Big Brooklyn Red

djcomeofage@yahoo.com — Sun, 15 Feb 2009 17:33:00 GMT

Sorry for the delay....this hiatus was not planned. My laptop was stolen out of my hotel room back in January! Can you believe it? First the appendectomy, then the theft. What was upsetting about the laptop was the hotel staff gave a complete stranger access to my room. Yeah, while I was out checking out the Louvre and the Eiffel Tower, someone was in my room jamming to all the great music and videos I had amassed over time. It's been about five weeks and still, no settlement from the hotel. Needless to say, I won't stay with that chain again. Where did I stay? I thought you'd never ask!

http://www.ibishotels.com or http://www.accorhotels.com

Turns out I was the victim of scam targeting foreign tourists. My personal information was given to an outsider who proceeds to "check in" to my room. No identification is necessary as long as the name and room number are presented by the person requesting access. Even though the staff member admitted that she neglected to verify identification and I lost over $6,000 worth of music, programs, photos, and other persoanl items, Accor Hotels and Ibis Hotels have not compensated me in my loss. I'm telling everyone this so they will be aware of the scams, the lack of security, the negligence of the staff, and most of all, so you can better protect yourself from being in such a predicament. How much is your identity worth? What's the price to pay for allowing someone into your hotel room? Think about it!

On a brighter note, we come back to the music. Hassanah continues to shine and her new tracks are now on iTunes and at Amazon.com! Remember Hassanah? Download this gem with her and Big Brooklyn Red and then be sure to holla back at me. Much more to come, sorry for the delay.

2009: The Year of Kim Arrington

Thu, 1 Jan 2009 20:58:00 GMT

I want to wish everyone the most possible and prosperous of a year to come. It's fun to set your sights and to accomplish said goals! I like to predict what others will achieve as well. Set your ears and eyes on a dazzling musician named Kim Arrington. She will quickly become one of your favorites and I hope you remember COA said so.

My good friend Nat Harris from London turned me on to Kim's lovely sound. During my recent recovery from emergency surgery, it was Kim's music that helped ease my pain. Kim has performed for thousands of people and her debut cd, available everywhere, is titled

First Love Note of Kim Arrington. I hope you delight in it half as much as myself and that her sweet sound finds rotation in your music library. Here is one of the gems from her album, the single track "Front Door". Thanks for hanging in there with me and be sure to spread the word. 2009 is gonna be an excellent year.

Heroes of the Dancefloor release "Torch," All Proceeds to Benefit the Homeless

djcomeofage@yahoo.com — Sat, 22 Nov 2008 17:17:00 GMT

As we are approaching the holiday season, please consider purchasing or helping to promote the forthcoming CD from Heroes of the Dancefloor, "Torch," released on INgrooves November 24th. Fusing old, new, and swing jazz with soulful vocals and mixing hip hop and dub influences, there is a little something for everyone on this album. In addition, every dime made will be donated to two homeless charities in New York City: âPicture the Homelessâ (www.picturethehomeless.org) and âCoalition for the Homelessâ (www.coalitionforthehomeless.org) "Torch," is the second in a series by Heroes of the Dancefloor to benefit the homeless. The sophomore album follows up the acclaimed, "Momentum" which benefited two homeless charities in San Francisco. The next album will benefit the homeless of New Orleans. When the founder of Heroes of the Dancefloor witnessed a very pregnant and crying woman on the streets begging for money, he new he had to do something. With his music connections and shear compassion, he gathered an excellent group of artists willing to donate their time and art for this worthy cause. According to the annual report by the Coalition on Homelessness "New York has reached a new record for the number of homeless families living in our shelters. In this year alone the number of people living in homeless shelters has increased by 11% and the number of children has increased by 18% to over 14,000.

Rebekka: Coffee and Music (Featured Download)

djcomeofage@yahoo.com — Tue, 11 Nov 2008 20:17:00 GMT

"From a small, rural town in the distant province, Norway, sounds an angelic voice. Rebekka, a young, up-and-coming neo-soul artist takes our thoughts way back to the golden era of soul.

Born into a music loving family she immediately learned to appreciate the joy of melody. With her father as a mentor she would travel around to perform along with her brother, and sang in various choirs and groups, until she wrote her first song on her own, November 2006. A star had begun her journey towards the skies.

Still determinately working to develope further in style and expression, Rebekka keeps blessing us with songs that we all can relate to. Inspired by that universal love and divinity that no human can help but to recognize, she writes most of her songs herself. "All kinds of music inspires me, especially soul music from the 1950's. But God, love, life, and my family is my biggest inspiration". Her music stretches into contrasts between the honesty and vulnerability of her lyrics, to the strength of her talent. All of this without getting in the way of catchy hooks, or keeping her humble person from shining through. In short: soothing music to make you feel good.

She is working closely with producers such as Harry West from Bergen and Jonesy for "JNS Beats" in Oslo. She has made great live performances, as well as a couple of international collaborations. Some with rap artists from the US. Her dream is to one day be able to make a living of her music, and concentrate fully on her great passion, on a lable that allows her to keep her artistic signature.

Meanwhile the fans can enjoy the new, free EP called Coffe and Music from this young lady with such a mature voice."

DJ COA: The Second Verse

Sun, 12 Oct 2008 09:40:00 GMT

The gift rested in full understanding for the power of words. His compositions always constructed to enlighten, to uplift, to bring to light essence of the unspoken.

A respecter of persons, he never intended any disrespect, alas, opportunity within grasp, the moment seized to express warm sentiment to one most deserving.

Even the first day his eyes laid hold in total amazement, her beauty as if divinely touched and having an aura non-pareil. Each day a testament that the first

impression left it's mark, her charm irresistible, her company welcomed, he resigned to cherish her from a distance.

The distance represented timing of the ages, this script written in the key of life. Destined to share with her the thoughts of many, the vibe

penned furtively, the secret revealed in both word and deed. Near the closing of his verse, the boldness taking upon a new risk, he chanced it all

so his mind would be relieved, a bet placed so she'd be assured to have his complete trust for future acquaintance. Alas, the two remaining as

friends, forever linked by his admission that began many moons ago, she remained, to him , as most beautiful....

DJ Rahdu: Swoon Unitz

djcomeofage@yahoo.com — Fri, 3 Oct 2008 19:20:00 GMT

As a child, Roderick Moody grooved to the music his father played in their basement. Little did he know that songs by Aretha Franklin, the Isley Brothers, Curtis Mayfield and P-Funk would ignite a spark in him that would shape his future. Now Moody, better known as DJ Rahdu, has evolved from the basement to the stage by infusing his own musical spin at parties, concerts and events throughout the Southeast. Rahdu started Deejaying in August 2002 on UABâs Internet Radio Station, Blazeradio. After hearing him spin on that station, poets from the local poetry scene became instantly impressed with his skills and quickly asked him to spin for their poetry night. Now, Rahdu can be found opening for hot acts such as Dwele, Anthony Hamilton, Calvin Richardson & Leela James. Rahdu is often on the scene mesmerizing crowds with his unique blend of Hip-Hop, Neo Soul, Acid Jazz, Funk Jazz, Afro Beat, Classic Soul, Soulful House and Broken Beat. In addition to juggling DJ gigs, Rahdu is pursuing a degree in African American Studies at the University of Alabama at Birmingham . Rahdu boasts an impressive resume which includes regular performances at First Fridays and R.I.S.E among countless others. Music aficionados also can check him out at Amani Raha Martini Lounge, Fusion Iradio on www.digital-djs.com by demand, and the Diamond Soul XXXperience on Hot107.7. He also has performed at special events for Saks Fifth Avenue and other organizations Rahduâs passion for music exudes in each of his performances. His vision is to increase the appreciation of diverse music and promote the awareness of viable alternatives of music beyond what is presented by mass media.

Forever: Sponsored by The Dough Bar Co.

Sun, 14 Sep 2008 13:51:00 GMT

The Dough Bar was created as a way to pass a love for food and delicious desserts on to my friends, co-workers and loved ones. As the Cookie Creator and owner of The Dough Bar I have always loved to cook and entertain. Inspired by my memories of time spent with my Mother and Grandmothers in the kitchen cooking and baking.

As a regular participant at company bake sales and a generous contributor to my family gatherings, I decided it was time to pass on my love and passion to a larger audience. I became disenfranchised by Corporate America and the need arose to start my own business and focus on my baking skills. Encouraged by my friends and family, I sat down with my best friend and came up with a name for my new enterpriseââThe Dough Bar.â Now my great love affair with rich goodness and comforting sweets is being passed on to you. Each of our one of kind, handmade gourmet creations is baked with love and care. I offer only the best from our kitchen to yours.

Thank you for choosing The Dough Bar.

Where is Casserine?

djcomeofage@yahoo.com — Tue, 24 Jun 2008 16:21:00 GMT

Does anyone remember Casserine feat Cato? She came out with this joint around 1994, "Why Not Take All of Me"? Here's the hip hop remix to a song that I loved. Admittedly, the album didn't fare too well but at the time, the single left it's mark on the masses. Maybe she was a victim of the industry, we all know how that goes. I'd like to know when, where, and why . In any case, we hope all is well with Casserine and please enjoy the track.

If It Were I....

Sat, 8 Dec 2007 23:55:00 GMT

If it were I,
I'd take you there on the warmest of days
The sand of the beach upon which we would play
In that moment, genuflect, as if in worship
Existing only to witness your receipt of full pleasure

If it were I,
I'd tender your womanhood with no less than
A thousand gentle lashes from the warmth of my tongue
The intensity of which would consume you and your
Moans would echo loudly, the words of a song only
You and I would understand..

The gentle aura would be as if forever
Your legs would spread as if the wings of angels
The rush of your waters so strong but not
A drop of your essence would spill
My stay between your wings lasting long
Long enough to know each hair of your
Womanhood, by name.

If it were I,
I'd watch from the corner of my eye even
As the anklet rolled South, the moment
Of finding your rhythm, an orgasm to take
You high it would be as if your feet touched
The bottom of the clouds...

The gentle lashes now too much to bear
You become mine, the waters now overflow
And meeting the rays of the sun,
A small rainbow will begin to form

My desire now at it's greatest
The longing for you at it's peak
For your tenderness has given me
Strength and vigor, I'd take you
And plunging deep within your walls,
So powerful and strong my thrusts
Would bury you in the sand...
Damn!

But only if it were I...
And You.

Raff

djcomeofage@yahoo.com — Thu, 25 Oct 2007 18:24:00 GMT

Raff!!!!!!

Raff: A Scottish/Italian soul singer-songwriter whose beautiful and unique voice brings a fresh sound to the uk urban soul scene.

Poised to release his ep, gotta get it right, Raff has already been getting major support all over the world, but this is definitely not one of those over-night stories. Raff has been perfecting his craft for years, with an ep and album already under his belt, proving that this talent definitely has something to say.

A chance meeting with underground hiphop producer, Yush2k, lead to raffs first foray into the recording world. But until then, the only people who had really heard raff sing were his family: too shy to even call the operator, it wasnt until raff recorded himself singing along to boyzIImens, 4 seasons of loneliness, that he thought, hey, I could maybe do this!. A job as a singing waiter soon brought raff out of his shell, giving him the confidence to really go for his dream - the illusive record contract!

So while singing stevie wonders, as, Yush2k saw something special and asked raff to record his first album and ep, hypnotized - an eclectic mix of street soul, rnb, hiphop beats and jazz. Not only was this raffs first album but his first chance to really express himself, with full writing and executive production credits. Rave reviews from dj mag, metro and straight no chaser followed, with calls from Warner Bros, but raff remained unsigned.

Keen to explore the world of music further, raff also found himself recording for the highly acclaimed Playstation2 series, Grand theft auto (3, vice city, san andreas and liberty city stories). However, his passion for creating his own music drove him on to start work on his follow-up project.

A change of producer found raff working with liam saunders, further establishing raffs own sound - a mix of old skool harmonies, acoustic guitars, live beats and swirly electro sounds. With such a live sound, the new material truly showcases raffs strength - the live performance, where his passion for music becomes clear, proving not only can he write from the soul, but sing from it too. On stage is where raff thrives and his influences can be clearly seen; ranging from the old skool Aretha and stevie, to the nu skool, India arie, erykah badu and Raphael saadiq.

As an artist raff is eager to develop and grow, hoping to, learn from the best in the business. As a result, a series of collaborations with other local unsigned talents have been helping raff to reach wider audiences. A reggae-soaked duet with Glasgows L-marie has been recently getting spins on galaxy fm in Newcastle, and a collaboration with perth mc, shogun, has been earning major support on Radio1xtra, showing raffs versatility and appeal across the board. What is clear, is that raff is here to stay and its only a matter of time before that deal comes his wayspread the word.

Jua: A Testament of Quality Soul Music

djcomeofage@yahoo.com — Sat, 8 Sep 2007 22:43:00 GMT

Some individuals may recognize early in life their dreams yet only a few dedicate themselves to the actual realization of those same dreams. And then thereâs Jua. "Jua" Swahili for the "Sun", was born in Chicago, Illinois; home of the "Musical Melting Pot". He discovered at a young age that the sound of his voice blended with various types of music, moved others to take notice. Encouraged to share this talent, Jua began performing in fourth grade in the Oakton Elementary School Chorus in Evanston, IL. By the time his family moved to Alabama in 1989, Jua had developed an undeniable love for singing. He continued performing as a soloist with choruses and church choirs, in school musicals, community pageants, fashion shows and weddings throughout high school. During his junior year in 1996, Jua was selected to perform with the Alabama All-State Boys Choir. That same year, he was awarded not only the "Best Choral Member" award by the Alabama Boys State Chorus but received a full four year vocal scholarship to Monticello University in Monticello, Alabama. Before moving to Atlanta, Georgia to attend Emory University, Jua participated in the annual highly regarded All-Atlanta Chorus Gospel Christmas performance with the Atlanta Symphony Orchestra. While in college, Jua continued singing in talent shows and athletic events including the 1998 AT&T Professional Tennis Championship where he accepted the invitation to sing the National Anthem. Revisiting his gospel background, Jua was a member of the Emory University Voices of Inner Strength Gospel Choir from 1997-2000. The year 2000 found Jua in London, England studying abroad. Attempting to take full advantage of his visit, Jua continued to hone his craft at Open-Mic night performances at local London clubs and venues. Returning to the States to graduate from Emory, Jua has since directed all of his energy to his love of music. Since moving to the D.C. area in 2002, Juaâs musical projects have included singing with a local R&B group and being featured on an upcoming compilation album that fuses neo-soul, jazz and funk. In addition, Jua performs with the legendary Blackbyrds as a featured background vocalist. His latest and proudest undertaking is the putting together of his own CD entitled "Anticipation" which not only showcases his vocal talents but his lyric writing skills as well. Jua brings a vocal sound reminiscent of soul and R&B singers such as Donny Hathaway, Will Downing, Luther Vandross; also major vocal influences on his style, along with Nancy Wilson, Chaka Khan and Nat King Cole. Juaâs rich voice resonates with a combination of depth and fresh emotion that is uniquely Jua.

At first, when I started designing an OSW, I thought I would start out with a nice post-disco mix, but a friend of mine from Chicago, DJ, suggested (rather surreptitiously, I might add) that I do a mix with Incognito. At first I shrugged at the thought, believing that they they didn't have enough material to fulfill the OSW requirement. I was seriously mistaken. Upon closer inspection, I discovered that they had quite a bit of material before 1997. It was on.

DJ Renay's Soulful House Music Session

lydiarbynum@yahoo.com — Fri, 15 Jun 2007 19:05:00 GMT

Mixes have been featured on RadioKissFM.net, FacetheBass.com and Soulfeeder.com and Kaixta.com.

My story and gospel house mix were featured on www.accessrandomrecordings.com. The gospel house mix is still available on their DJ Mixes Archive Page.

Formerly played at the Five Spot
Brooklyn, NY 11205

I am a house music lover who accidentally became a DJ because of my frustration of not finding the house music I wanted on cds. I started my journey late in the game (age 42) and spent the past 5 years learning to mix and playing music in my livingroom for my own enjoyment.

I finally got the courage to play in public at an "Open Turntable" and, after appearing a few times, I was offered an opportunity to play during the breaks of the regular band and eventually advanced to playing 4 and 5 hour sets.

For the detailed story of my DJ Journey... stop by www.myspace.com/djrenay. I want to be an inspiration for those who think that age hinders your dreams...It really doesn't....Dreams are meant to be followed and realized...You've just more patience to do it at an older age.

I developed a passion for soulful and gospel house music after hearing selections from SuSu Bobien, Barbara Tucker, Cece Rogers, Kenny Bobien and the list goes on.

"Gospel house music inspires me and assures me that it's gonna be alright - even when I am frustrated and unsure of my next step. It deposits my troubles in a safe place until I am ready to pick them up again - mostly in a better state of mind than when I started. That's why I love gospel house music."

BIO DJ Soulswede

"He has looked Robert "Kool" Bell (Kool & The Gang) straight in the eye! He dared to ask him why they have been faking the funk in recent years. He has sat in a car with Mitch McDowell from General Kane, discussing at length the problems of crack in the young Afro-American community. He also spoke with Mitch about his passion for p-funk. He has hooked up with old school hiphoppers The Jungle Brothers at a noisy airport. Heâs even given Patti Austin a huge hug in Copenhagen. He has met Chicago housers Full House and Daryll Pandy during the period when four channel mixers were the only studio equipment needed for house music."

Born in 1967 and raised in southern Sweden. At the age of 8, he asked his parents for the new George McCrae single âRock You Baby". There was something special here with a soulful voice on top of a melodic soulful groove.

He then began to explore his fathers' vinyl collection. The favorites came from Dionne Warwick and Stevie Wonder. In 1980 he bought his own first album, âSecret Combinationâ? by Randy Crawford. His father is a musician and has been playing organs in churches almost all his life. Maybe there is a connection.

In the mid 80âs he discovered local radio stations, which were a rather new phenomena back then. But he did not appreciate the music they were playing. One day he asked one of the stations if he could run a show playing soul music and "Soul Power Radio" was born. Later "Soul Food Radio". He was doing a one hour weekly show playing soul and funk music only. The response was not overwhelming. Soul music was not the most played genre back then. He was even threatened on one of his live shows and was actually haunted by people for playing black music on the radio. He had to leave the studio through a backdoor for a period of time.

During that time he also did some freelance work for The Swedish National Radio. He interviewed Robert âKoolâ? Bell and Dennis âDTâ? Thomas of Kool & The Gang. He also did his âownâ? interviews with artists such as Tyrone Davis, BeBe & CeCe Winans and Mitch McDowell of General Kane. It was not always an easy thing to do interviews at a young age of around 20. But the artists respected him for his big knowledge and deep love for the music.

In 1991 he moved abroad to work in Spain for a couple of years, following this time he moved to Stockholm for a period. He lost close contact with the music for a couple of years during the 90âs, and is now trying to catch up with the music missing on his soulful map for that decade.

Over the years he has been playing everything from raw, naked and âuncensoredâ? hiphop to quiet storm, smooth jazz, soulful house, deep soul, and hardcore funk. But his heart is in the deeper school of soulful music. It âmustâ? contain a strong melody. He always comes back to the fact that soul music must reflect the person behind it. Itâs all about credibility.

Kafele: Prodigal Moon

email bluenote89@hotmail.com — Sat, 24 Feb 2007 21:38:00 GMT

Kafele, trumpeter, composer and producer, has been playing the trumpet for over 18 years. The name Kafele (pronounced kuh-FAY-lay) is of Egyptian origin, and means "worth dying for". Born in Baltimore, Maryland and raised in Baton Rouge, Louisiana, Kafele was first exposed to jazz by his parents. In fact, he attributes his love and appreciation for the art to his father who often listened to recordings of John Coltrane, Freddie Hubbard and Miles Davis among others. Later, his brothers and sisters introduced him to Hip-Hop and R&B. As a byproduct of becoming a Chicago resident for about 7 years, Kafele was inundated with lively, upbeat house music. This musically enriched background provided the influences that helped cultivate his unique sound.

While attending Southern University in Baton Rouge, he studied Jazz Music Theory under the leadership of world-renowned jazz artist and educator, Alvin Batiste. During this time, Kafele was establishing a reputation by performing at various venues in Louisiana, Georgia, Texas and Alabama. He collaborated with a group of talented musicians to form The Kafele Bandele Group. This group frequently performed at M's Fine and Mellow CafÃÂ in Baton Rouge. He also appeared at the Baton Rouge Blues Festival, House of Blues in New Orleans and the internationally acclaimed New Orleans Jazz and Heritage Festival.

After earning a degree in Physics from Southern University, Kafele moved to Chicago with plans to expand and elevate his musical career. Following years of hard work his plan is taking off with an untamable force.

In 2003, Kafele officially launched K. Kapano Records, Inc. in which he plans to elevate his own musical career, produce other talented artists, and perpetuate the appreciation of jazz-fusion. Already, he has released his debut album, "Prodigal Moon" which introduces a new genre of music that infuses spontaneous trumpet riffs with pulsating, hypnotic baselines. He calls this music Cool Fusion-a poetic entanglement consisting of the finest elements of jazz and the richness of Hip-Hop and other forms of music.

In addition, Kafele has successfully penetrated the Chicago music scene and has performed in Baltimore, New York, Dallas, Detroit, Philadelphia, San Francisco, Washington D.C. and Miami at the venues listed below:

The Wild Hare (Opening for Slum Village), Isaac Hayes, Rhythm, The Cotton Club, The District, The Hot House, The Chicago Theater (opening for Kem), The Congress Theater (opening for Erykah Badu) The House of Blues Chicago (opening for Boys II Men/ Amel Larreuix), Sounds of Brazil in New York, and has been featured on various college and commercial radio stations.

Kafele is a musical visionary who believes that there is a difference between music produced for the sole purpose of making money and music created as an expression of one's inner self. He hopes that listeners will recognize this difference in his music. In his own words, "Music is a true reflection of the heart and soul."

"Roots" by DJ Come of Age

djcomeofage@yahoo.com — Sun, 21 Jan 2007 11:39:00 GMT

Don't you hate moving? I sure do. This week I'm moving into a new house. Aaaggghh, it's a pain but it has to be done. Before I am finally packed up, I decided to take the few records that aren't boxed up and find my 'Roots'. Speaking with my good friends Trel, Gary, Bauwa, and others, seems the love for house music is as strong as ever. Here is my snippet tape, 27 minutes of some smooth and soulful grooves. I can get down like this!! We start with an intro by Alex Haley, one of my noted heroes. Then we vibe for about 27 minutes...it's short so blame it on the move.

I made a public declaration that 2007 would be my year....this is only the beginning. I'll soon be firmly ensconced in my new abode, ready to unleash more great house, more soulful vibes. Please keep in touch....and be sure to support Coffee Kids by downloading Downloads For Dollars Vol 1!

Carmen Rodgers: Free

djcomeofage@yahoo.com — Tue, 9 Jan 2007 20:16:00 GMT

Every so often a superstar is discovered -a star that is untouchable and appears to transcend all earthly boundaries. But, there is nothing about Carmen Rodgers that is untouchable, yet her music definitely says superstar. In fact, she is so touchable that you can literally feel the warmth of her broad smile. Her "home girl next door" charm resonates through a serenic flow of words that seems to invade your most private thoughts. It's the delivery of those words that is refreshingly calm and patient making you want to scream, "Take your time, girl!" You sense that she is not singing words, but experiences and the issues of her heart. Probably because she truly singing from the core of her heart. Carmen has the talent and ability to inspire millions of people . . .one heart at a time with her debut release "Free."

Maty Soul

matysoulmusic@gmail.com — Thu, 21 Dec 2006 20:03:00 GMT

Maty Soul is a Soul singer, songwriter and composer. Born in Paris in 1981, she studied the piano from the age of 4 to 11. She moved with her family to the South of France when she was 12 years old. From an early age she fell in love with the music of Miles Davis, Bob Marley and Marvin Gaye. She was moved by the rhythms, the voices and the messages of protest in their songs, and developed her own style of singing from these influences. Maty Soul moved back to Paris in 2000, after finishing high school and a short stint at university. She found her home in the Montmartre-district of Paris well-known for its artistic and multicultural vibe. In pursuing her musical career, Maty Soul opened up for a gospel choir in 2000 and recorded her first demo in 2001. Since 2003 she has been singing regularly at Soul and Jazz venues in Paris, including l'Opus Cafe where independent artists are able to showcase their talent. In April 2006, Maty Soul launched her page on Myspace. She received a warm welcome here in France and also from the U.K. and the U.S..Maty Soul has also been encouraged by the feedback she has had from Karen Bernod (background vocalist for D'Angelo, Erykah Badu, Chaka Khan, Mary J. Blige); Peter Black (a Hidden Beach artist who appears on the Unwrapped compilations) , Nicole Russo (who sang with the Brand New Heavies). Maty Soul is working on her album and has just recorded two songs, Â My Mind Went To The 70s an Love Jones . with a backing lineup of seasoned jazz musicians such as Michel Alibo (Les Nubians, Manu Dibango, Sixun). Maty Soul's music deals with social and political realities. She feels deeply concerned by injustice and inequality, and dedicates one of her songs to Martin Luther King, Jr. Her voice has been compared to that of Lauryn Hill and Jill Scottt. She has a voice that is warm and powerful, that ranges from the rhythmic force of Soul to the subtle charms of Jazz. Her passion for both is undisputed. And this passion she wishes to share with you.

For Goldrose, Suga Shock, Trel, and Gary Anderson

djcomeofage@yahoo.com — Sat, 14 Oct 2006 20:39:00 GMT

It feels so good to be back in the mix! Thanks for everyone who knew my hiatus was all but planned. I've been balancing a lot of projects, some of which took me by surprise with the public response. "Download for Dollars" has taken flight. During the week I've been promoting, calling, networking, explaining, and all things in between. In the end, it will be well worth the grind.

When the schedule gets too hectic, I resort to doing what I know best...playing some sweet , soulful grooves and having a bit of fun with it. This mix episode ushers in a new era for me and hopefully for you as well. In the next three weeks, we have new music mixes from DJ Purple, The Brass King, more spoken word from The Untamed Tongues, and new full length COA mixes. So for Trel, Goldrose, Suga Shock, Gary Anderson, and all those people who help keep my faith on solid ground, this is for you.

Cheetah Conservation Fund: Download for Dollars Campaign

djcomeofage@yahoo.com — Wed, 13 Sep 2006 18:48:00 GMT

CHEETAH CONSERVATION FUND ANNOUNCES

Downloads for Dollars

An Innovative Partnership to Benefit Music and Conservation

Namibia, 14 September 2006 Ã?? The Cheetah Conservation Fund (CCF) proudly announces ' Downloads for Dollars' in partnership with DJ COA and Markus Ekholm of the Swedish band Slowmo. DJ COA and Ekholm, a world-renowned production duo, have pledged to donate fifty percent of the revenues from Internet downloads of their hit single" From A Window ". This soulful, acoustic track garnered critical acclaim in the U.S., Japan, France, and Sweden during its initial release in 2005.

Music lovers everywhere can now help the wild cheetah each time they download the hit song" From a Window," performed by Slowmo. The single can be found on digital music stores such as Apple's iTunes, MSN Music, Rhapsody, and Music Net. Each download will send a heartfelt donation to the Cheetah Conservation Fund on behalf of the artists.

In the wake of the Hurricane Katrina disaster, many musicians donated proceeds from album sales to victims of this catastrophe. The healing power of music came to the forefront to help those in need. The sincerity of collective artistic efforts was duly noted. What effect would music have on society if it were continually used to garner attention for those in need? In a digital society, shouldn't digital sales play a major role in fundraising? Downloads for Dollars hopes to answer these questions. The program is a revolutionary idea partnering stellar independent musicians with established non-profit organizations, and addresses a dual purpose: (1) Give deserving artists much needed recognition and a viable outlet to sell their music; and (2) Provide a continuous opportunity for non-profit organizations to raise money for their stated aims.

"Downloads for Dollars" was created by DJ Come of Age and Markus Ekholm of Slowmo. Together, this DJ/producer combo has garnered international acclaim with the podcast Soul Music of the World and a catalog of over 200 songs, beats, and graphic designs!

If you would like more information on CCF's research, conservation and education programmes, please contact: Heike Stackmann on +264(067) 304806 or e-mail heike@bushblok.com, or Dr. Laurie Marker on +264(08)11247887) or email cheetah@iway.na.

Today's Labor Day Special will help you whistle while you work. We feature the talents of Honey Soul...podcaster, dj, interviewer to the stars. I'm a fan of her podcast which has up close and personal interviews with newsmakers of the soul scene. Find Honey Soul at her homesite, iTunes, and Myspace.com.

We proudly give to you the one and only Honey Soul.....

I'm a strong believer in making your own opportunities. In Oct. 2004 I created a site called honeysoul.com. Honeysoul.com's audience consists of a large number of loyal, soul music supporters who actually buy music (yes I know that's a strange concept but I'm not kidding, it still actually happens). In addition to honeysoul.com featuring my own mix of "radio blogs," full CD previews, videos, new releases, and headlines I am very proud of my interviews or "conversations" as I like to call them.

I have had the pleasure of talking to Jaguar Wright, Dwele (twice), Wayna, Gaelle, Carmen Rodgers, Lina, Julie Dexter, Darien Brockington (twice), Syleena Johnson, Ladybug Mecca, Stokley Williams (Mint Condition), Jonz, Geno Young, Jon B, Anthony David, Goapele, Frank McComb (twice), Valencia Robinson, Eska, Javier, Esthero, Yewande, Joi, Ron Isley, Lisa Shaw, Van Hunt, Amel Larrieux, Kim Hill, Teena Marie, Donell Jones, Bilal Salaam, Sy Smith, Randevyn, Carol Riddick, Yolanda Johnson and Raheem Devaughn. Who's next? It may be you. If you're a soul artist making meaningful music, let's talk.

I predict that in the years to come, many of us will remember the first time we heard the beauty of Corey's voice. One of my greatest rewards occurs when listeners write to tell how thankful they are at the musical introductions! It will suffice to say this will be the beginning of a long lasting relationship. Our journey takes us to Amsterdam--Netherlands where Corey's debut album "Movin' On" has been released to rave reviews. A killer 16 track production, she has opened for the likes of John Legend, Adina Howard, and amazed crowds at the North Sea Jazz Festival. Isn't it about time you whet the appetite for deep soul with global reach and mass appeal? Reach out , feel the vibe, and get to know one of my dear friends whose career is poised to take flight.

Feel My Flo!!! Free Download of the Week

djcomeofage@yahoo.com — Sun, 27 Aug 2006 18:13:00 GMT

Flo is a female artist from the French West Indies. She writes in English, French, and last but not least in her native tongue of Creole. She mixes languages and styles in her own way. A product of her heritage, she writes about her traveling experiences in France, the U.S. and the Caribbean. A young black woman who is not afraid to show her emotions Flo will make you think, dance, and overall offer good steady vibes to your ears. Her sophomore release The Lost Flows mixtape shows what you can experience with Flos music. She drops twenty tracks and unites with fellow South Floridian Creole Hip Hop protagonists Mecca and Dr Zoe on Nap Monte, a Creole anthem in the name of the Kreyol Hip Hop movement in Miami. She brings some flavor to the tape with a surprising Zouk song, or reggae and dancehall tones. Flo is definitely a proof of Hip Hops global horizons of growth. Her first LP, the Aflowdiziak is also available and merits some attention. Flo features on the Pass Di Rhum Riddim album (2004) with international artists like Exxos, Admiral T, Krys, or Tiwony. This year she scores another vibrant song on the international KSS Caribbean sessions with artists like Jocelyne Beroard (songstress of the international sensation Zouk band, Kassav) or the original voice of Jamaica, Tanya Stephens. In the United States, Flo has worked with nationwide artists such as X=144 of TDP, and Sol-Illaquist of Sounds. Flo gets involved in the local Miami community as a photograph and community writer. She also helps up and coming artists to build their visual personality through her graphic works.

Nick Nack

djcomeofage@yahoo.com — Sat, 26 Aug 2006 18:34:00 GMT

From vinyl manipulation on the turntables, to current production of jazz infused hiphop tracks, Crowd Control Records CEO, NickNack is a true soundcraftsman. His musical journey began in the late 80's after making the transition from hiphop spectator to participant. Cutting his teeth from the very beginning as a young appreciative turntablist knocking off rivals at Dallas' Sound Wars battles in the mid-nineties, Nick has worked hard to encompass a broad vision of ability, and a verbose sense of instrumentality, to match his already fruitful passion for music.

These days you can find Nick performing/touring with the jazz band BLAZE, or hear him rocking dance floors at various downtown clubs. Most recently, Nick has been enjoying the success of his latest full length release, "Improving Silence". The record has garnered him international attention and sales have been phenomenal. His progression as an artist and deejay is quite obvious, but his job is never done. Always in exploration of advancing his full turntablist potentials, and with countless projects on the horizon, Nick has grown into a unique artist, in a constant search of endeavors new and improved. Stay tuned, because this is only the beginning.

Above Ground Music: Vintage Latin Jazz

thebrassking@bellsouth.net — Fri, 25 Aug 2006 18:22:00 GMT

Vintage Latin Jazz blends an old familiar sound with a contemporary edge! Miami, FL June 2006- Soulfrito and Above Ground Music release a timeless piece titled Vintage Latin Jazz. Picture the energy of Yankee Stadium, August 24, 1973 as the Fania All Stars take the stage in front of a sold out audience of 63,000 people. Vintage Latin Jazz captures the essence of these moments by combining the roots of our culture with todays newest sound. It is a mixture of legendary jazz greats such as Quincy Jones, Ray Baretto, Mongo Santamaria, Fania All Stars and Irakere with new artists like Hassanah, Brimstone 127, Calibe, Big Brooklyn Red and P.O.W. Power of Words and many more. The blend of artists creates nothing other than a feel good vibe that will never get old or become outdated. Vintage Latin Jazz is an underground compilation that will soon become a cult classic. The album is to be accessible to everyone. The Brass King producer of the album said, There is no category it can be put in, and no shelf it can be kept on. Perhaps there is no category or shelf because the listener can classify the album by what it means to them.

Theres something I do want to say to all of you, the loves and thoes haters of my music. Although I may not talk to you or we once had a friendship or we cant stand eachother, the music you hear is deep and clear enough to here your story. Everyone influences!

I've always confessed to having humble beginnings. My journey has been fruitful and my success due in part to many people who have guided me in this music career. None more so than my brother Bekay, aka, the Brass King. Who would have ever thought I'd be in a position to give him a celebrity endorsement? Bekay wears many hats: DJ, producer, promoter, music historian, etc. His knowledge and respect for his craft set the standard for others to emulate. An ardent supporter of soulful musicians both major and indie, his mixtapes run the gamut of styles: soul, salsa, latin jazz, hip hop, etc. Today's podcast is a special arrangement for you to get acquainted with the man I give much deserved credit.
