A Skillz Feat Curtis Blow - These Are The Breaks

Now were talking :)  this sort of stuff is right up my street , nice and mellow funky breaks , party music proper summer music :) The super talented A skillz ripping it up with curtis blow's these are the breaks

Changing Direction

Ive decided that rather than just keep the blog unique to oldskool flava's im going to mix things up a bit and just center on basically anything that floats my boat , therefore the blog will now still be predominantly dance music but as well as oldskool you will also now find breakbeat and funky stuff in here too maybe the odd trance tune , who knows :)   One things for sure it will be a melting pot of all things cool in my world of music , thanks ever so much for all your support and keep checking back there going to be coming thick and fast :)

Paul Oakenfold - Goa Mix (silver)



The Goa Mix is a two-hour mix by DJ Paul Oakenfold. It was originally broadcast on BBC as an Essential Mix in 1994 after the Producer of the show Eddie Gordon chose Paul as the DJ to create a ground-breaking 2 hour mix, regarded now as the famous Goa Mix, a working title Eddie Gordon gave to the conceptualized show to help Paul decide a more eclectic track-listing. The result of the collaboration between Paul and Eddie was voted the best Essential Mix ever by the BBC Radio 1 listeners and also won a Silver Award in the Specialist Music Programme category at the 1997 Sony Radio Awards.
As the most requested broadcast on BBC Radio One, the Goa Mix was pioneering. First broadcast on the early morning of December 18, 1994, the sound was predominantly influenced by the Trance parties taking place on the hippie beaches of Goa, India at that time. These Full Moon parties involved European travelers dancing to a sound distinguished by the heavy use of melodies and synthesizers in its structure. This was opposed to the bass lines and rhythms of House Music that was prevalent in UK night clubs. Goa Trance, as it was termed, also had a faster beats per minute (BPM) than other genres of dance music. Prompted by Eddie, Oakenfold lightened the harsh, dark sounds of Goa Trance by incorporating European records into this broadcast and merging movie soundtracks and audio samples along with international dance music. This provided more of an audio experience, and a collective recording that retain audience interest. While current big-name DJs are doing this as a matter of course now, this was something very new at the time. Partly due to Eddie witnessing various DJs delivering 2 hour House or Trance mixes which remained linear, flat-lining out of interest after an hour in the broadcast, the same tempo being too repetitious. The key to the Goa Mix was its feature of changing gears musically to take the listener up and down in moodhttp://www.zshare.net/audio/79518621ca7fa1bc/
