R.I.P. NICK ASHFORD



 Nick Ashford, one-half of the legendary Motown songwriting duo Ashford & Simpson that penned elegant, soulful classics for the likes of Diana Ross and Marvin Gaye and funk hits for Chaka Khan and others, died Monday at age 70, his former publicist said.
Ashford, who along with wife Valerie Simpson wrote some of Motown's biggest hits, died in a New York City hospital, said publicist Liz Rosenberg, who was Ashford's longtime friend. He had been suffering from throat cancer and had undergone radiation treatment, she told The Associated Press.
we love you and your music! rest in peace!

THESE ARE THE BREAKS VOLUME ONE

I MADE THIS MIX IN 2008 THERE ARE  OTHER BREAK MIXES I MADE IN THE PAST BUT THIS WAS THE START OF AN ONGOING FASCINATION I HAVE WITH B-BREAKS AND HOW  COMPLEX OR BASIC SOME OF THE PRODUCERS IDEAS ARE THAT SPAWNED HITS OUT OF THESE CLASSIC AND SOMETIMES OBSCURE RECORDS.SO FAR IM AT VOLUME FIVE BUT IM WORKING ON VOLUME SIX RIGHT NOW BUT IM JUST TAKING IT SLOW.I THINK THE WORLD IS A SOUNDTRACK AND THIS BREAK BLEND IS AN EXAMPLE OF THE MANY MOODS OF A D.J. ENJOY THE JOYFUL NOISE I WILL POST "THESE ARE THE BREAKS 2-5 SOON!

DJ STAGE ONE SOURCE MAGAZINES PART ONE

THOUGH THE SOURCE MAGAZINE IS NOT WHAT IT ONCE WAS IN THE LATE 80'S EARLY 90'S,IT WAS VERY ESSENTIAL FOR ARTISTS AND FANS ALIKE TO SEARCH OUT THE SOURCE MAG IN ORDER TO STAY ABREAST TO THE CULTURE AT THE TIME ESPECIALLY WHEN YOUR LIVING FAR AWAY FROM CITIES LIKE L.A. & NYC ETC.SO I WILL BE POSTING A LOT OF ARCHIVAL STUFF ON THIS BLOG AS WELL AS CLASSIC AND CURRENT DJ MIXES!
