Soul Revival - 1st Show for 2009

Foundation Mix – January 2009 In 1999 I had an idea. It was actually more of a dream: “If I were to have a club, how would I present my music and in turn, ‘brand’ my product?” As I put my ideas onto paper I wanted to be sure to cover three main areas: music styles, musical expression and target audience. The clincher: “…the people who understand the music are those who are elegant but have the willingness and readiness to sweat on the dance floor. They are considered to be a “mature” audience. These people are not afraid of the repetitive beats and rhythms, because they know that he beats and rhythms lead to something. They are not afraid of hearing something different from what is on the radio. They know how to party to soulful dance music. They are House People!” This concept/dream became “SOUL REVIVAL”. In 2000 I recorded a promotional mix CD. This was a new adventure for me, and in order for me to capture the essence of my expression of House Music I gave the mix CD the appropriate title of “SOUL REVIAL”. During the next six years I recorded ten more volumes. In 2006, only four months after recording Volume 11 of the “SOUL REVIVAL” mix CD series, I launched my internet radio show via Jerseydjs.com. At the risk of sounding clichés, “the rest is, as they say, history”. “SOUL REVIVAL” as an internet radio show began on Sep 9, 2006. For the New Year I am presenting the SOUL REVIVAL “Foundation Mix”; with this mix I will be presenting the elements that I have always believed to be the true essence of House Music: (70s/Soul/Disco/Funk/Mainstream/Gospel/Vocals/Jazz/Blues/Percussion/Afro).
