I've been listening to a bunch of Mac Miller lately and I couldn't help but notice how well produced the instrmentals are, most of them with really interesting samples. I was left with no choice but to choose one of his tracks for this Sample Sunday. The track that I chose is of course one of my from his 2010 mixtape K.I.D.S entitled Nikes on My Feet including samples from Nas, My Morning Jacket, and Dexter Wansel. Mac Miller - Nikes On My Feet [...]

![[Thursday Throwback] The Jones Girls – Keep It Comin’](http://cdn.elbo.ws/posts/3307919_lg.jpg)
I've long been a fan of these hard-to-find and (up until recently) out-of-print jams from the legendary Philadelphia R&B trio The Jones Girls . The album, featuring production from Keni Burke, Dexter Wansel and Gamble & Huff, wasn't the group's most successful outing, peaking at number 201 on the U.S. Billboard Charts. Nonetheless, I love it and I hope you will, too. ( 1984 / Philadelphia International Records ) (OOP) The Jones Girls - You Can't Have My Love The Jones Girls [...]
BRASSICA aka Michael Wright has been a favourite artists of ours for the past year or so. We've posted on him a several times before and thought it would be really interesting to try and get... DOWNLOAD/ STREAM http://www.feelmybicep.com
In my never-ending quest to learn all I can about the Philly sound, Dexter Wansel 's place is a cornerstone of the sound pioneered by the legendary producers behind The Sound of Philadelphia, Gamble & Huff . On this track, from his 1976 album Life On Mars , the power of Dexter's hand at interstellar soulful jazz-funk is pronounced and magical. I hope and believe will you love it like I do.

Happy New Year Blind I Faithful. I feel like it has been a while since I've posted an Innervisions mix. If you're new to this thing, these compilations usually have a smooth vibe with lots of old soul music which is one of my favorite things to play when I unwind. And they took time on these songs back in the day so don't rush through the intros of George Duke and Jimmy Castro. The switch up is worth the wait. Tracks and links after the jump. [...]
Here is something smooth for you to enjoy this Monday evening. Pieces of a Dream was produced by the late Grover Washington Jr. and they put out three albums. Their sound was very tame and smooth with polished production. While many of their tracks are a bit too smooth, this one has a nice poppy snap that is reminiscent of a Change record. Dexter Wansel helped pen this one. Pieces Of A Dream - Fo-Fi-Fo

One of disco music's eternal questions may soon be answered. The Rover's sole mission is to answer this question. While The Mars Rover is an amazing feat of engineering, it is full of aesthetic deficiencies. Although I like the Johnny #5 head, the body looks a lot more like an insect than a vehicle. I also think the rover would probably be more functional with a robot sidekick that has arms and legs. The new moon rover that has the ill conceived name "Chariot" got it right with gold leaf trim. All we can wish for is some 12" triple [...]
Philly-soul keyboardist/producer/vocalist Dexter Wansel in fine form.
A disco tune for your enjoyment. Dexter Wansel - I'll Never Forget (My Favorite Disco) Are you LOL or HAHA? Could "lol" be easier and much more frequented than "haha" since the letters are right over each other whereas "haha" is kind of a distance so people may find it nettlesome to type? The day of laughing out louds being taken seriously is over, and "lol" has become the norm for laughing. So, LOL or HAHA?
29 July, 2008 "Overflow" - Here are some fun tracks. I've been real busy working on the Brooklyn Electronic Music Festival, a new weekly Wednesday party at Arlo & Esme, booking a big party in August with some special dj guests, and the list goes on (& that is not even my day job.) Hope everyone in NYC can make it out to my Last 'Fresh Arrest' party at Happy Ending tomorrow - Wednesday July 30th. It's gonna be awesome, we have The American [...]
i dont know much about any of the below, but its a pretty righteous collection of 70's funk, jazz, groove and all around weirdness that only the 70's could have produced. some of the stuff actually sounds pretty timely, while some other stuff would make awesome personal theme music for either sweet loving making or just walking down the street. 1. ritual - nico gomez 2. je m'appelle geraldine - jean-claude vannier 3. pcyhedelic mood - piero piccioni 4. t plays it cool - [...]
