Greetings all.

Welcome to Part Three of the Funky16Corners 2017 Allnighter/Pledge Drive aka The Summer of Soul!

This week we have a great selection from my man Vincent the Soul Chef of Fufu Stew!

First, a few words from Vincent:

“I’ll say this: after following Larry for close to fifteen years now, I’m convinced that it’s not necessarily about what you have in your crate or how much it costs, but it’s all in how you present it. That said, I’m all about presenting everything I have on my website and eventually returning to Mixlr in the not too distant future. In the meantime, I did a complete overhaul of the record rooms, and simply chose to rip these 45s from the comfort of my easy chair in the process, hence the title. Nothing too extravagant, rare or even new in my crates, just some of my all time favourites from the last fifteen years or so. Now if you fancy something a little more eclectic, then please feel free to like my Facebook page, or visit my website and mixcloud profiles… enjoy 😀

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  Tarik Thornton, Ben Gibson, DJ Prime Mundo, DJ RP of Funkdefy, Chris Lujan of the M-Tet, DJ Bluewater and HeavySoulBrutha Dave B.

The fundraiser will also take a slightly different form this year, moving to 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 (i.e. if you pledge 12 bucks, it doles it out a dollar a month over the course of a year), which will help cover the ongoing server/broadcast/hardware expenses. This year has seen the upgrade of a couple of crucial pieces of equipment, and any help you fine people can provide will keep the machinery moving here at Funky16Corners central.

So please dig deep so we can continue to do the same!

 

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

As I have mentioned recently, the changes to the general format here are as thus – The concentration of the operation will continue its shift to podcasting/radio, with the Funky16Corners Radio Show originating every week as a live broadcast, Thursday nights at 9PM Eastern on MIXLR, and will continue to be posted as a downloadable podcast every Friday, and broadcast in the UK on Cruising Radio.

The Iron Leg Radio Show will also move to a monthly live broadcast (day to be determined) also on MIXLR and will continue to be broadcast on Cruising Radio in the UK.

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
