My weekly set on Mixcloud Live.

After a bunch of self-inflicted technical difficulties, I re-started and settled in for an epic set of afro house, soulful house, disco, funk, mid-tempo soul, beats and hip-hop.

Catch me every week.

Welcome to show 58. A new sampling of COOL VIBES & CLASSIC BEATS just for you. 

You’ll hear a strong West London vibe in this one with tunes from Kaidi Tatham, Mark de Clive-Lowe, and WheelUp. (I know MdCL isn’t from London, but he was a big part of the movement) 

We also have some classic hip-hop flavor from The Ruffcats and a dope new track from Cephas. 

Our DJ Mix is a nice set of Lounge & Nu-Disco. 

Our Chilled Vibes feature cool jazz throwbacks from Herbie Hancock and David Sanborn and more! 

Enjoy…

French-born Producer/DJ Kuna Maze curates a wonderfully eclectic set of current and classic releases from the Tru Thoughts label. For those who don’t know, Tru Thoughts is a Brighton, UK based record label releasing Electronic, Jazz, Soul, Hip-Hop, Downtempo, Grime and more. This playlist highlights some wonderful tunes. Featuring broken beat, soul, jazz, and other electronic styles this is a playlist worthy of a road trip or a day around the house. Plenty to vibe out to as well as get up and dance to. This…

In recent years, the beats genre has grown very popular - and very crowded. There are few producers who have managed to develop a signature sound that stands out in the crowd. Tall Black Guy is one of them. I first discovered him back in 2010 on his Tall Black Guy vs. Michael Jackson album (still available on Bandcamp and still dope!). Over the last decade he has continued to develop his signature soulful blend of hard-hitting drums blended with creative sampling and live instrumentation into a thing of…

For the next month or 2 I am taking some time to focus on developing my sound as a funk music artist. I’ve decided to postpone the funk releases I had planned for a couple of months while I work on a more consistent sound. While I’m doing that, I felt it was a good time to release something I’ve been sitting on for a while. 

Once upon a time, ya boy was a beatmaker. Back in the 90’s, there wasn’t a market for instrumental beat albums like there is now. So like most…

One of the great things about modern music production is the abundance and availability of affordable synths. It really is great. But sometimes having 10,000 options can be a bit overwhelming. So, I recently decided that I would challenge myself to produce some tracks using only 1 synth. It’s amazing how much creativity one can find within pre-set limits. You can expect to see more of these from me in the future! 

I’m starting off with what is probably my…

Hello my friends! 

After a short break to clarify and rework my vision for what I am doing in this space as a DJ I am back with a new episode of The Afterglow. 

Highlights include tracks from the new album by A.I. The Anomaly – “Soul’s Acrylic” as well as a track from Hablot Brown remixed by Detroit Swindle. Felivand, Souleance, Diogo Strousz, Quantic, Magna Carda and Mark de Clive-Lowe also bring life to phase one of the show. 

Our DJ Mix features a hot set of broken beats & nujazz. 

The chilled vibes…

We are definitely in a season where the voices of women are finally being heard - and hip-hop is no exception.
 
That is definitely good thing.
 
Unfortunately, if you let the mainstream tell it, the only thing of value a female emcee brings to the table is a big booty and top-notch sexual skills. 

With her 3rd full-length LP, A.I. The Anomaly continues to prove that the mainstream is lying to you. "Soul's Acrylic" is the work of an artist who has learned how to dig into the depths of her own soul, extract the…

I didn’t plan to do a Christmas show this year. 

But as I finished curating my set for Mixcloud Live, I looked at the playlist and realized I had done an Afterglow Christmas show after all. 

So Happy Holidays and enjoy this holiday-flavored set of cool vibes & classic beats.
