As the year winds down to a close and we look ahead to the promise of 2012, it's only fitting that we pause for a moment to remember several dance music artists who we lost in 2011. Some of these artists are well known, others aren't. No matter what their level of profile was at the time of their passing, all of these artists left a legacy of music for future generations to enjoy. Loleatta Holloway One of the most sampled voices in music history died on March 21 after slipping into a [...]

I've said it before: no other series on this blog is as much fun to put together than the Covered With Soul compilations. And I've yet a few mixes in store. There are have been a couple of pretty radical reworkings of songs; Maxine Weldon 's interpretation of George Gershwin's I'll Build A Stairway To Paradise (best known, perhaps, as Georges Guetary's showstopper in the An American In Paris musical) is one of them. On the other hand, if the version of Spirit In The Sky by The Stovall Sisters has [...]
The second SAVED! compilation gets righteous on your asses with a churchful of glorious '70s soul – and it does so without going for the easy option of all those Stevie Wonder songs about God being a zillion lightyears away with whom you should have a talk (and did George Michael realise that he was singing a song of praise to God when he had a hit with Mary J Blige?). While neither Stevie, Aretha nor Marvin feature here, Al Green does, though with a song that precedes his lesser Reverend Green phase. And, of course, Curtis Mayfield [...]
I've been getting stuck around these cheeky little jams from Melbourne cats Andy Hart & Griffin James. They work a treat in a set but due to the great choice of original tracks to sample they are equally as enjoyable in the kitchen. I remember seeing Roy Ayers earlier this year, I can't believe how well the dude rocked a stage at such a tender age. I'll remember that show for the rest of my life, shame on anyone that hasn't seen him and his band. Be sure to follow these guys on SoundCloud as the [...]

The Grim Reaper must be in need of a holiday after his brutally busy month.In fact, we're still finding his victims from last month. For example, the 20 February death of doo wop singer Willie Davis was announced only last week. Among this month's dead are Carl Bunch, a drummer who toured with Buddy Holly & the Crickets in early 1959. He was in hospital due to frostbite sustained on the unheated tourbus which Buddy, Richie Valens and the Big Bopper tried to rescape by taking the flight that killed them. [...]
