DJ RHYTHM Dee’s Freestyle Mega-Mix Vol.2 (Electro Beats & Latin Hip Hop)

In the mid-to-late 1980s, an alternative rhythmic style was introduced to dance floors and airwaves; it was the birth and rise of Latin Freestyle. The beats were for the most part a direct derivative of the early 80’s electro beat style popular in New York and beyond, pioneered by Afrika Bambata and the Soul Sonic Force, and other local talent. The Hispanic community, namely of New York and Miami, put a new spin on the beats by incorporating melodic vocals with added musical layers.

Let’s take another trip back in time and listen to the sounds of Stevie B, Shannon, Connie, Debbie Deb, The Cover Girls, Expose, The Information Society, Nocera, and many more.

“Do You Wanna Get Away”

My Transistor Radio Vol. 1

Growing up in the late 60's and early 70's AM Radio was king and your prime source for your favorite music. For me I can't forget those on-air jocks and that beautiful music on my transistor radio. In Toronto we got our fix on stations like 1050 CHUM and CFTR. This episode goes back to those days which seems to feel like a forgotten era with each passing year.
