Recycled Funk Episode 14 (Live @ APT 2.9.04)

If you lived in NYC in the early 2000’s and were part of the “in-crowd”, chances are you experienced a night or two, or twelve at APT. For several years APT was “the” spot to be at on any night of the week. An indiscreet black door at 419 W.13th st. with no name or…

Recycled Funk Episode 13 (Blend Special)

For as long as I’ve been a DJ, I’ve incorporated the blend, aka live remix into my sets as often as possible. It has become a lost & forgotten aspect of most DJ sets. The art of mixing, like really mixing and putting your personal touch on a set of music. What is a blend…

Recycled Funk Episode 11 (Sunset Beach)

This latest R.F. mix is dedicated to a summertime feel good funky vibe. “Sunset Beach” is a beach front resort in Long Island, NY that I’ve DJ’d at a couple of times.

Recycled Funk Episode 10 (Cinco Funk Mix)

This latest episode of Recycled Funk is a tribute to Latin Funk, to commemorate Cinco De Mayo. Growing up in NYC, the son of a musician/DJ who also happens to have Puerto Rican roots in the family tree, my exposure to Latin funk came early in life, and often. NYC definitely has “a sound” when…

Recycled Funk Episode 7

For this episode I did something different than with any of the previous ones. After recording the set, I got in my car and took a drive while giving it a listen. I just wanted to see what it felt like to hear this collection of songs while on the go. I have it say…

Recycled Funk Episode 06

Transitions, that’s the mood of this latest installment of Recycled Funk. Here in NY we are transitioning into fall season. Musically, my taste is pretty eclectic and so I’m constantly transitioning from one style of music to another, but there’s always a cohesiveness to the overall mix, and an underlying theme/vibe. That’s what “Recycled Funk”…

Recycled Funk Episode 05 (Got Money)

I originally conceived and recorded a different version of this mix a few years back. I decided to revamp it with a 2016 version exclusive to Brooklynradio.com It’s not really possible to understate the importance of money in our daily lives. There are more than enough slang & slogans to go around, but I’m prone…
