From the vault

Here are some old tracks from the vault that I transfered last night. Love says we need to incorporate more classics. So here ya go.

1st up is from the New side of Todd, "Little louie" & Kenny "Dope's" - MAW dance track comp released in 1994,
Sun, Sun Sun "curious"produced & mixed by lil louie vega for small wonders productions inc. A very soulful track that takes me back to the good O house days!

Next is Naked Music Remixes of Sade - By your side, Released in 2001 Mysterious mixes on a deep house tip, supposedly done by Miguel Migs. The label side is more relaxed, while the other side adds a juicy bassline, this is the one I uploaded because it just sounds better to me. The 'Naked' remixes of this Sade single takes it to another level of nocturnal elegance. Works well for late night lounge parties.

Last but not least from late 2003 comes WAY OUT WEST's - MuthaFucka 12" single, A Very DJ-friendly record with syncopated snare action and Ol Dirty Bastard sampled to powerful effect ("Turn that mothafucka up!"). The characteristic funky bassline is present with spacy arpeggios, maximum synth layering and floor-shaking, crowd-pleasing drum fills. With breakdowns aplenty, there are many hands-in-the air moments, one in which the boys bust out with some funky air guitar pluckage. The mood transitions from funky to spooky and back again. There is also some eyebrow-raising turntable trickery instituted with the vocal..sorry no album art available yet on this one.
