and then moving ahead when I found the <strong>Paul Jones<\/strong> b-side you hear in the mix.<\/p>\n<p>I should also mention &#8211; though some of the deeper heads will pick up on it when they see the set list &#8211; that this mix owes a big debt to one of the pioneers of DJ\/dance culture, <a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/David_Mancuso\" target=\"_blank\"><strong>David Mancuso.<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<p>It was Mancuso&#8217;s deep and far ranging tastes that brought all kinds of unusual and unexpected records onto the dance floor of his legendary <a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/The_Loft\" target=\"_blank\"><strong>Loft<\/strong> <\/a>parties, some of which are included in this mix.<\/p>\n<p>It&#8217;s called &#8216;The Sound of the Drum&#8217; because that&#8217;s the thread connecting all of these records, whether it&#8217;s the insistent beat of hand drumming, the snap of a master on the traps (dig that <strong>Quartette Tres Bien<\/strong>!), or just a wicked break.<\/p>\n<p>So slap on your headphones and dig in.<\/p>\n<p>See you on Friday.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Keep the faith<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong><strong><strong>Larry<\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong><strong><strong><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/funky16corners.com\/%7Efunky4\/pictures\/new_funky16_logo.jpg\" alt=\"Example\" width=\"179\" height=\"181\" \/><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong> <strong> \u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>_________________________________________________________________________________________<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Also, the brand new Funky16Corners &#8216;Keep Calm and Stay Funky&#8217;
