The M+M Mixes Vol. 2 by John Morales by
Various Artists Coming March 29th, 2011


“The original process of ‘re-mixing records’ was intended to provide an
alternative listening experience which had been optimized for people who
went out to dance at Discos. John was one of the early pioneers who
loved music, understood his craft and HAD RESPECT FOR THE CREATIVE WORK
from which his mixes were derived”
Patrick Adams – Super Producer.
Writer of over 30 Gold and Platinum records and back to back winner of
ASCAP Songwriter of the year award 1996/1997. To continue, please click “MORE”!

“Henry Street Grooves” (By Various Artists) | Coming March 21st, 2011

Henry Street Grooves – Classic Deep, Funky and Jazzy House from New York by Various Artists


Back at the tail end of the last millennium BBE released a comprehensive
over view of house music in the latter stages of the 20th century.
‘Henry Street Music: The Story So Far – 1993 To 1999’ was a slice of
superior contemporary club classics featuring all of the key players,
architects and music makers of the day. Todd Terry, Armand Van Helden,
Kenny Dope, DJ Sneak, 95 North, Robbie Rivera, Davidson Ospina, Ralphi
Rosario, Mike Delgado, King Britt, and a handful of others under various
alter egos and nom de plumes. It was a given that they were all great
records, what was all the more impressive was that they all originated
from the same recording home, Henry Street Music. A label conceived and
devised by Johnny DeMairo, an Italian-American from Brooklyn who talked
the talk, could easily have been an extra in The Soprano’s, and was
known affectionately as “The Shark”. To others he was just plain Johnny
“D”, and one half of the pro! duction duo JohNick with studio partner
Nicky “P” Palermo Jr. To continue, Please click “MORE”!

It’s a well-known fact that history is cyclical – regenerating and reinventing itself over time. Music as one of the components of culture is very much a part of that transformative process and it’s with this in mind that the 37th State was born. Inspired by the continent’s first World Cup finals and Nigeria 50 this compilation uses that essence – pulling together the best in hip hop, funk, soul and jazz under the banner of Afrobeat.

Made famous by Fela Kuti in the 60’s – HMV Magazine ranked him #46, on a list of the top100 most influential musicians, of the 20th century – Afrobeat is a combination of Yoruba music, jazz and funk rhythms, originating from the southern part of Nigeria in the 1960s. Fela was also a human rights activist, political maverick and it’s that zeal and honesty that makes Afrobeat so enduring. To continue, Please click “MORE”!
