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…

The title of this EP describes me. I went to middle school, high school, and college in the 80’s. Everything I learned about being cool, I learned in the 80’s. My taste in music was firmly established in the 80’s. And, most importantly, I began writing and producing my own music in the 80’s. 

I am a child of the 80’s. 

As you know, over the last few years 80’s music has seen a bit of resurgence in popularity. Synthwave has gotten the lion’s share of that attention…

I was in the middle of working on another track when I pulled up the new SRX Electric Piano plug-in from Roland Cloud. I had just added it to my collection that day and wanted to hear how it compared to my other rhodes plug-ins.I was playing along with the track and just going through the patches. When I reached the patch your hear in this track, inspiration interrupted. I suddenly pressed stop and out of nowhere I started playing the keyboard line…

Once upon a time, if you wanted to hear one of my DJ Mixes you could go to Mixcrate. Mixcrate was a site where hundreds of DJ’s posted their mixes and fans listened, liked, left comments and shared the mixes with friends. If you listen to The Afterglow you will hear me point you to mixcrate in every single episode. I had over 50 mixes posted there – including all of the DJ Mixes from The Afterglow. Unfortunately, a few years ago Mixcrate abruptly shut down. They posted a brief explanation on their site…

Happy New Year to all of you! Like many of you, I am beginning the year by assessing what I accomplished – or failed to accomplish – in 2019 and setting goals for the year. I don’t really like the whole “new year’s resolution” thing. Most of the time “new year’s resolutions” are not well thought out. Often, they are just emotional responses that just amount to wishful thinking. They are mostly just statements of what we wish we were.

Goals, on the other hand, identify what we are actively working on –…
