“Theres a reason that common records are common.. it’s because they’re the shit. Everybody loved them.”

So true. Dollar bin jams are the hotness.

I came across this album recently and it had a bunch of dope songs. Here a couple solid tracks from the album.

Clydie King – Rushing To Meet You:
The intro to this jam so so dope! Totally thought it was going to be different than what t turned out to be. But its still great towards the end.

Download “Rushing To Meet You” here.

Clydie King – Loving You Is So Easy:
This one is a slow, smoother track. Great funky beat. Sounds like the same melody of a Motown tune I can’t name right now. Hmmm….

This is a really funky song, with a nice short vocal break that Swizz Beats flipped nicely for Eve. The rest of the track is nice.

I surprised myself at how fast I turned it out. It is 80 minutes long, and contains 64 songs. Songs were mixed quick with the intention of showing the range of my selections.

This demo landed me a gig at the Viceroy Hotel in Brickell. I will be spinning at Club 50, which is on the rooftop, every Saturday from 7-10pm.

I will be spinning this kind of vibe, as well as throw in soulful house tracks, and random R&B classics, both old and new. It’s going to be a good vibe!
