Greetings all.

The Funky16Corners 2018 Allnighter/Pledge Drive aka The Summer of Soul 2 has begun!

We continue this year’s Summer of Soul mix series with a joint from my man DJ Prestige. A few words from the man himself:

“Another year, another pledge drive for the Mighty Funky 16 Corners. I have been feeling vibes people. Vibes from JA, and like the funk and soul I’ve searched for for years, I had been secretly stockpiling Jamaican 45s at the same time. This year has been a boon for JA records for me. I had some numb skull from a North Jersey record store tell me: “There are no reggae records in New Jersey.” (Prime Mundo was there to witness). So, just to prove him wrong, I’ve bought over 300 reggae forty fives this year alone (and it’s only June) in the Garden State. So there comic book guy aka record guy, you have no idea what you are talking about. Stop wasting my time, we are here for the records pal, not your “No you may not” attitude. Whether he likes it or not, we always get the records. Speaking of, this lot I used on the mix has a few pops, skips, and jumps, so don’t fret, the music is mixed all live, and all in one take. You don’t get a second chance live, so that’s how it goes. The cover is based on the Bionic Dub record from Dub Specialist out on Studio One manipulated by yours truly. I also tried to incorporate some Six Million Dollar Man samples to go with the mix, I know Oscar Goldman would have been proud. Enjoy, and if you like this mix, make sure you first, pledge to Larry and F16 Corners, then pass it on!. Thanks for listening. Cheers.”

2018

We will continue with a new mix every week for the duration of the summer, with a selection of stellar contributions from some of my (and your) favorite selectors including DJ Prestige, Ben Gibson, DJ Prime Mundo, DJ RP of Funkdefy, Vincent the Soul Chef, Chris Lujan of the M-Tet, DJ Bluewater, HeavySoulBrutha Dave B. and new contributor, DJ Scott Boyko (with possible DJs yet to be named!).

The pledging will continue this year with Patreon (click here or on the logo below to go to the Funky16Corners page) , where you will be able to spread your contributions out over the entire year, which will help cover the ongoing server/broadcast/hardware expenses. This year has seen the move to 100 percent live broadcasting (Mixlr.com/Funky16corners)  and continued hardware and software upgrades at Funky16Corners central, to keep the radio/podcasting experience as seamless and groovy as possible. So please dig deep so we can continue to do the same, and if you’re already a Patreon donor, please accept my heartfelt thanks!

 

In addition to all the broadcasts and the blogging all of the Funky16Corners and Iron Leg mix archives will continue.

I am also including a Paypal donation button (below) if you’d rather donate in a lump sum instead of the rolling donation in Patreon.

 

Don’t forget, my weekly radio show for WFMU’s Give the Drummer Radio, Testify! is on the air live, every Wednesday night from 10-12. If you dig Funky16Corners and/or Iron Leg I think you’ll dig it. So tune in when you get a chance!
_______________________________________________

So, download and dig the mix, keep digging the radio shows, and we’ll be back next week with another groovy mix.

Also, make sure to follow Funky16Corners on Instagram, Twitter and Facebook.

Keep the faith

Larry
