Music review!

Caribbean Dreams
This is a CD by David Arkenston. I found this on 
www.CDconnection.com
I've heard his music before so I thought I would invest in this one. I'm glad I did
Its calm relaxing music that perfect to chill out to after a busy or stressful day.
 A= in my book!
Jazz Best
Many of the artist on this compilation remind me and rides in the car with me dad with him smoking a pipe and the 8track of choice playing. Many I know here and there are a few that are new to me!
  It wasn't till my mid 30s that I truly started to appreciate jazz.
 The story is in an earlier post where I tell my story of how I started making mixes. check it out!

Hang loose


Yes my friends
Another mix. Its a little bit of a continuation of the other mix but I'm adding more funk and stepping back from the world music for a bit.

Heres the cover art for this mix which I took at the last car show of the year in Point Pleaseant.
I'm surprised this picture came out as well as it did.
   I was sitting on my bike trying to bet a good angle and this was this guy yelling at me about how close I was to the car with my bike and telling me to be careful not to hit the car with my bike.
  I preety much aimed focused and shot the picture and got out of there cause the guy was being a pain in the butt and wouldn't shut up!

more world music





  In my travels Yesterday I stopped at a place called Sunshine Daydream which sells women's cloths ,accessories and Putumayo world music.
   As most of you know especially those who I swap CD mixes with I enjoy world music.
   The Putumayo world series is great. All original songs my the original artists.
  I've been on a CD buying binge lately but I'll slow down in time to save up for the holidays.
    Oh I know its a hair too early to be talking about the holidays but I start gathering music and compiling my Christmas mixes around late October.
  This weekend I'll be making my fall mix called "Falling out of Summer 2014"
    I have 3 DJ gigs in October 3 Saturdays in a row. I'm chuffed!
  details to follow soon
please check back soon!
