Feeling quite under the weather and like the featured artwork above, I'd like to lie in bed all day. But hopefully these funky, feel good vibes will set my and your minds at ease on this gorgeous Friday morning. Very proud to feature tracks from Louis La Roche, Magnifik, T-E-E-D, T reasure Fingers and many more, so step inside and get [...]
I love dropping in a nugget of golden-era hip-hop into my mixes. Virtually all of the hip-hop beats from that time were samples of funk, soul, and r&b jamz from the late 70s to mid 80s, which I think can make for great transitions. Case in point two fun* hip-hop songs both sampling Patrice Rushen: Dj Honda (1998) - not golden-era, but close. Patrice Rushen (1984) Tragedy (1993) - *serious lyrics over a party beat. Patrice (1982) - lovely production.

So I'm pretty sure the guy who did this remix/edit is Will Berridge from Leeds in the UK. It's good. > SOUNDCLOUD > DOWNLOAD | Patrice Rushen - Forget Me Nots (Nu Disco'd) [wav] Posted by Celebrity Sex Tape.

This Diynamic Radio show by David August is absolutely amazing and I listened to it on repeat a couple of times today The piece de resistance of the whole thing was the appearance of Patrice Rushen - Forget Me Nots at the end. Magical! Ps if anyone knows what the edit of the Beegees is at around 38 please let me know in the comments box... Thaaanks. David August - Diynamic Radioshow - October 2011 by davidaugust

Will Smith sampled this track when he "wrote" the Men In Black theme song - nice to be able to appreciate it 14 years later, minus the grazed knees and 90s rap. I don't know much about Singapore other than its airport which I got to know quite well just recently (thanks Qantas), but somewhere in the spotless city veteran DJ/promoter Joshua P is fashioning some very smooth and fittingly clean edits. As you'll see, Joshua has given the great Patrice just enough of a touch up - discretely adding some contemporary cool, [...]

If you're a fan of Brooklyn-based group The Stuyvesants , then chances are you're familiar with Darien Birks a.k.a. Flwrpt . Every now and then he drops these really cool mixes with rare gems and impeccable song choices! Sample Food Vol. 2 kicks off appropriately with the Otis Redding classic "Try A Little Tenderness" which Watch The Throne has recently revived. I happen to enjoy discovering the origins of samples and many of you Blind I Faithfuls are music historians, critics and even producers. So this one is for you. [...]
It's been a grueling stretch at the office - and I'm still vexed by the realization that I use the phrase "at the office" - and I think a part of my cerebral cortex is still a bit glitchy from the rabbit hole Paloma sent me down last week. There's also a band who have dubbed themselves Cosmic America playing downstairs and anyone who might be able to hold a coherent thought in their head while a band that would think Cosmic America might be a good moniker bashes away is made of sturdier stuff [...]

Disco brought us many great songs and this is one of them. Patrice Rushen might be a one hit wonder , but she hit it hard. This is a beautiful booty-groove with some cute vocals. It was later popularized and sampled by Will Smith's now-horrid " Men In Black ."

If there was a definition for an uplifting disco / boogie song on the encyclopedia it would be Patrice Rushen's I Was Tired Of Being Alone. This 123 has been in my record bag for whole summer, perfect for getting the dance floor moving. MP3 Patrice Rushen - I Was Tired Of Being Alone (Glad I Got Cha) (320k) (mediafire)

I've been busier than an air conditioner this week so forgive me for the lack of posting. In order to get things up to date around here, an amalgamated post ensues, which I'm not entirely crazy about. Here's to hoping amalgamation isn't a bother! Remember my review of Teenagersintokyo's Sacrifice? If you crave more action from the raunchy outfit, check out their remix work of Matt Van Schie's (of Van She) Journey . It is a smooth combination of dreamy pop vocals and instrumental work worthy of making [...]

This mix should persuade those who believe that soul music was dying by the mid-1980s of their error. There is much that's great on this mix, and among tracks that did not make the cut. Some of the songs are surprising. Cameo are more usually associated with funk and camp codpieces, not deep soul music as this duet between Larry Blackmon and Barbara Mitchell of Hi Inergy (who featured on Any Major Soul 1976-77 ). Denise LaSalle , during the time covered by this mix, had a hit with the awful Don't Mess With [...]

I thought that this series would come to a natural end with 1979, but the early 1980s were not as deficient as one might imagine. The difference resides in the volume of quality and the widening chasm between the great and the utterly abject in the '80s. A lot of bad soul music was created in the '80s, and the genre has never recovered. The next couple of installments of Any Major Soul will, I hope, highlight the bright spots in a declining genre. The two opening tracks, by Clyde Milton and Sam Butler , [...]

U.S.A. Soul / R n' B / Booty-Funk We here at Sex 4 Ears have a bit of a love affair with Patrice Rushen , the 80's songstress responsible for " Forget Me Nots ", which was the basis of Will Smith 's hit theme track to the film Men In Black , and also sampled by George Michael in his [...]

Big disco this week that you will surely recognize. It turns out that Will Smith's big hits take no small inspiration from these classic disco tunes. Blew my mind. I've been playing them out a few weeks and these originals turn heads. They're familiar, but not everyone will know why. It will puzzle them, excite them, and scare them in places they never knew existed. Bring an extra pair of shorts! The Whispers - And The Beat Goes On vs. [...]

Чуть ускорив, включаешь эту композицию в середине сета, и на танцполе истерика. Если кто-то и сможет уберечь рассудок от фантастического баса, этого чудака гарантированно догонит соло. Patrice Rushen - Forget Me Nots (ysi)
