Let's do a web search exercise. Think of your favorite artists and creators and find their NON SOCIAL MEDIA links--websites, stores, blogs--then share them in the replies. Also your own if applicable. Then bookmark their website/subscribe to them directly if you haven't. Let's get really connected.

Draw something badly with no intention of showing it to anyone. It's very freeing.

Sorry for the wait! Life is winding down again. New mix up on Friday.

I can't believe this perfectly good website is going to slowly die now because of the adults who own and monitor it making the world "waffles" a passive-aggressive way of saying they hate and don't want to think about their own most at-risk users.

Soon I will have a monopoly on all the world’s tangible ground-scrubbing tracks

Those wanting to throw it back late 80s-90s style will have to come to me for their rumpshaking needs

Deemed “Single of the Week” by NME Mag & Sounds newspaper, #SiouxsieAndTheBanshees 1986 track “Peek-A-Boo” was described by Melody Maker Mag as “a brightly unexpected mixture of black steel and pop disturbance"- it was a Starck favorite

It was tracks like 1987’s “Can’t Get Enough” that helped #ChicagoHouse singer #LizTorres earn the title of “Queen Of House Music” with Rolling Stone Mag crediting her with pioneering the sub-genre of #DivaHouse- the Spanish version was a beloved Starck fave

Sure, the best thing would be to live in a sane country where we can sleep soundly, instead of suddenly finding oneself wide awake and wracked with existential dread at 2:30 AM.

Until then, sitting in the darkened living room and listening to Miles play softly is a pretty sweet way to cope. 🥱

Groups responsible for helping bring this group to fruition include Quad City DJs & 95 South.

I’ll share tracks from them sometime soon.

69 Boyz album “The Wait is Over.”

"Rent Money" is still the best song I've heard from Mary J. Blige in the last decade. I can't believe how much repeat play it's gotten from me in just 3 years.

Dude founded 2 Live Crew, the group responsible for tracks such as “Hoochie Mama” & “Me So Horny.”

Y’all definitely should check em out!

Shoot, there used to be a music video for this song floating around YouTube a few years ago.

If I can find it, I’ll drop it in here!

But yeah, if y’all wanna find more Miami bass, Uncle Luke is a really good place to start!

One of the OGs for the genre.
