Legends Of The Past, Rhythms Of The Future!

After taking off a week for the Newcleus show at Madison Square Garden we returned with a special show. To mark the passing of music legend and icon Michael Jackson, Dogtrane put together a sensational set that included some of Michael's music and that of other Lost Legends like James Brown, Marvin Gaye, Barry White, Isaac Hayes, Rick James and many others. It was quite a poignant set that kept everyone in the chatroom engaged and reminiscent.

I followed up these grooves from the past with some choice Electro grooves of the future, playing a complete set of Nu Electro that is either just released or pre-released, or even still being worked on. Fresh beats from the likes of Electronic Confessions, Karl Finlow, Rob Real, The Blastromen, The Middle Men, Dynamik Bass System, Das Omikron, Newcleus and more! There is something exciting happening in Electro and Jam-On The Groove is on top of it!

All in all, another great show, as we prepare for this week's upcoming Jam-On July 4th Jamboree!!!

Enjoy!

Another Classic Show!

Dogtrane took a bit of a break from the mash-ups this week and instead went right to blending, cutting and scratching up classic, hard rocking beats, breaks and grooves. He had the chatroom buzzin' as he went way back for some Soul, rocked some Disco and then dropped some Electro. A request rang out from the chat for Aleem's classic "Release Yourself" and The Dog obliged in hard hittin' fashion!

I then dropped an Electro set that featured more obscure and brand new tracks, starting with Das Omikron's funky, eclectic "Analog Computation". I then widened the spectrum from The Clone DJ to DJ Xed and from Harmonic 313 to Dark Vektor, and The Middle Men in between. I threw in a bit of classic Newcleus for good measure and gave everybody a taste of a remix that I have been sweating over in the lab.

Enjoy!

The Dog Returns!

Dogtrane returned and delivered one of his most eclectic sets to date!  He started out with Disco, mashin' up tunes so rare and obscure that they even had me baffled!  He even dug out a couple of old gems from Kid Creole And The Coconuts!  He then went into some pounding, ground thumpin' House and mashed it up with some Soca.  Classic set!

I followed with an Electro set that emphasized on the beat.  Of course, I started out with that most important and influential of Electro beats, "Numbers" by Kraftwerk.  I then followed that with a line-up that included such hard hitters as Anthony Rother, Aux 88 and Dark Vektor and new gems from Karl Finlow, Electronic Confessions and The Middle Men (Bass Junkie and Jim Kneen).  Finally, being that Newcleus - "Programmed 4 L.O.V.E." is enjoying it's 2nd week as #1 on the Street Sounds Electro Chart, I closed out the show with the instrumental.

Enjoy!
