Once again, thank you for tuning in all these years, for I appreciate each and every one of you that take the time to listen and spread the good word.

Seems like more and more local djs are willing to incorporate House Music in their sets, and maybe one day we can convince our local radio stations to let us spin on Sundays & Holiday Weekends. (Looking at you Magic 95.5!)

September 2019 marks an entire year of spinning at The Royale Cigar Lounge, where I love to spin Lounge and Soulful House music on Friday nights. I hope a mix such as this encourages more people to accept this type of vibe in the coming years in Columbus, Ohio.

If you dig the mix, stay tuned for more in the very near future, and feel free to leave a comment. Peace!

Well, here's another mix that I've been sitting on for quite some time. When I think of all the other types of music that come from countries south of the equator, they all have one thing in common: The Trans-Atlantic Slave Trade. No matter what the style of the music is considered today, they all originated in the Motherland.

If you're fortunate to travel to these countries, take the time to take in the music culture. I can't wait to get to Cuba personally. Peace and I hope you enjoy what you hear.
