Funky16Corners wasn&#8217;t shut down (or threatened) but I wasn&#8217;t about to have five years of work go into the toilet, so I decided to figure out how to set up the blog on my own server using the WordPress platform.<\/p>\n<p>So far, so good.<\/p>\n<p>I have been writing about music in various forms (zines, newspapers, e-zines, blogs) since the mid-80&#8217;s. The Funky16Corners blog started in November of 2004 to focus on funk and soul vinyl. Since mid-2006, in addition to individual MP3 tracks, I have been posting mixes under the title Funky16Corners radio. Most MP3s and mixes will be available for a few weeks.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Posting Policy<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Most song files are available for only 10 days.
