Festivals. There's quite a few of them around these days, and they're appearing all over Europe like nobody's business. So, if you fancy a spot of continental raving this summer — and who in their right mind wouldn't? — here are some of your best bets. Springfestival: Graz, Austria – May 16-20. The beautiful UNESCO World [...]
A Southern Hemisphere Sunday double today from the mighty Kenny Dope, who follows up last month's tasty hip hop and funk mix in the best way possible: by one-upping himself. The Dope man is on deck on the traditional day of rest with not one but two quality selections of the hip hop/funk/soul persuasion. And best of all, they're both free and ready for your downloading pleasure. As you'd expect, quality tuneage is the order of the day on both mixes, with tracks spanning a chunky spectrum of low and slow genres [...]
Kenny "Dope" Gonzalez, one-half of the influential Masters At Work, along with Little Louie Vega, recently released "Be Your Freak" feat. Josh Milan on Dope Wax/Kay-Dee via The Orchard, and it's now been on the Billboard Hot Dance Club Play chart for 10 weeks, most recently at number 14. We're ...
This week's Flashback Friday's is from Kenny 'Dope' and the Bucketheads and their 1995 smash hit "The Bomb! (These Sounds Fall Into My Mind)". The first time I heard this song was back 2008 at WMC , which was my first WMC that I attended. We were at the Opium Garden which is now called Amnesia , Kaskade was spinning and he dropped this track and the whole place went bonkers! Enjoy and Happy Friday! Electronic dance music, House, Electro, Disco, Progressive, Tech, Dance, club banger, DJing, Parties, [...]

They all have a track listing so turn up that [...]
When it rains, it pours. For weeks - sometimes months - I go through mix tape droughts, and then all of a sudden I'm surrounded in quality download material that cripples my internet download speed to Stephen Fry tantrum-inducing levels . Following on from the blinding Kenny Dope Hip Hop & Funk 45s mix from a couple of days back, and the Big K.R.I.T jammy from the day before that, is another beauty from NYC jazz man Robert Glasper (who you might remember from last month's [...]
Master at Work Kenny Dope has hip hop and funk chops for days. And in what is a nice little 'show and prove' moment, he's posted up a mix of the good stuff for your weekend listening pleasure. Kenny's Hip Hop & Funk 45's Mix is exactly what it says on the tin, with top notch hip hop and funk mixed to perfection. The vinyl purists out there will be happy to know that KD's put the whole thing together using 45s. I'm more impressed from a technical [...]
. Diggin' this dude. Kenny Dope co-signed, so it's on some vintage shit, but it's good. Something for the old folks. 30 the new 30.

Donae'o – IReleased 12th July 2011Talented London soul singer Donae'o steps out with his first release for Strictly Rhythm and it's a pretty damn impressive one: a set of silky vocal tones are slickly augmented by a consummately musical groove that ripples with melodic keys, soft bass and seductive beats. In an array of mixes aimed at the soulful house aficionado, Sean McCabe's Movin' On Dub and
"I remember house before it was called house" says the authoritative voice on "Do You Remember House," the opening track on Blaze's edition of the House Masters series, and with decades of experience behind them, you'd better take Blaze at their word. Kevin Hedge and Josh Milan (and once upon a time, Chris Herbert) have [...]
I like what I'm hearing. Spine TV sat down with Kenny Dope to discuss his plans for 2011 and his Old School Hip Hop roots. <!-- You need to install Adobe Flash Player, or use an HTML5 browser that supports H.264 video.
Sometimes all you need to achieve supreme satisfaction for the day is hearing some new Wu over a nice vintage soul groove. Never mind that "From The Hills", a mid-album offering from Raekwon 's forthcoming fifth set Shaolin vs. Wu-Tang , probably won't even rank in the Top 50 (or hell, Top 100 ) of a Best Chef Songs Ever list once all is said and done, once those spirited horns burst through the speakers, quickly followed by Raek's warm-up ad-libs and the piercing falsetto of Raheem DeVaughn singing about [...]
Here is the official video for the song "What I'm Here 43 by Rasheed Chappell produced by the Legendary Kenny Dope & featuring the recent Master of the Mix winner & Hip Hop Icon DJ Scratch (EPMD). Video Directed by: Zunbug Turskee in conjunction with Creative Control
A feature post that I didn't feel like giving up just yet is SoundCloud Sunday. I enjoy the weekly trawl through the truckloads of music that's uploaded to the newest online musical revolution. There is plenty of crap up on there, but every now and then you come across some gems. My aim is to share those gems with you through these posts. After over a week of downtime we missed two Sundays worth of posting and I didn't want to bring back the stuff that I'd found 3 weeks ago so here is the best I can [...]
Hey guys its me Nite and Im here to give you another fun dose of Classic House Music!

So as a way of apologizing for not posting enough and for celebrating my 18th year in the world, I am giving you all a bunch of house tracks produced/created/mixed by MAW,Kenny Dope and Louie Vega.

I've lately been obsessed with this vocal sample. Everyone knows it from this one J-Lo-tune and i heard it in any remixversion in any club some weeks ago. So i did some diggin' and here's the outcome: 3 supernice tracks by "Dances With White Girls", "Kenny Dope" and "DJ Eli Escobar". Love everyone of them! Btw, this is the Original. Everyones Got To Make A Living - Dances With White Girls Making a Living - Kenny Dope Heavenly Break - DJ Eli [...]
An new Treasure Fingers single dropped this week, Keep Up. That's two in the past couple months and more than we've seen from him in quite a while. He's been releasing remixes in the mean time but these two singles are definitely the best we've seen from him in a while. 'It's Love' took a ... Read more
