Old Soul

If like me you get the urge for some drop beatz now and again, you could get bang on point with North Carolina based producer L’Orange top quality tribute project to Billie Holiday. Free Download go grab it!

(L’Orange says)
“Billie Holiday is my muse. Her creative vision and stylistic integrity have influenced both my music and my writing. When I decided to work on this project, I wanted to approach it with respect for her music. I wanted these remixes to be both inspired by and dedicated to the life and craft of one of the most innovative and soulful singers of all time. Each track is designed to represent a significant part of Billie Holiday’s life.”

It`s An Instrumental Funky Weekend. Part 2

Saturday`s choice gem in our instrufunkyweekend party is by The Majestics - "Funky Chick" released in 1969, and rarer than hen`s teeth, apparently only 500 original vinyl copies were pressed on the Morsound label. It has been re-issued on the FUNK45 label.....so get out your dancin` shoes and boooooogie!!
