\nA Word from DJ RP<\/strong><\/p>\n

FUNKDEFY, located in Columbus Ohio, is the longest running Funk-N-Soul dance party of Central Ohio. Founded in 2004, the Crew is an ensemble group of crate diggers and beat battlers. Not only have they been throwing monthly all vinyl dance parties, but in years past introduced live Soul to Columbus, heating up the city with their combination of dance parties on wax mixed with some incredible live bands, including The Dynamites featuring Charles Walker, The Budos Band and Eli \u201cPaperboy\u201d Reed & The True Loves. The following contribution was put together by founder DJ RP for your audio pleasure. You can hear other mixes of theirs on Soundcloud and see updates about them on Facebook. The crew hopes you will become part of, and a friend of, the funky collective.<\/strong><\/p>\n

NOTE: Today’s mix comes to us courtesy of DJ RP of Funkdefy, the long running Ohio funk and soul night.
\nThere are some very groovy sounds in this mix, including a grip of my faves, so I think you’ll dig it.
\nSee you tomorrow,

Greetings all<\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/p>\n

Welcome to the 2014 edition of the Funky16Corners Allnighter\/Pledge Drive.<\/strong><\/p>\n

This is the ninth annual Pledge Drive, and the fifth Allnighter.<\/p>\n

If you haven\u2019t experienced the Allnighter\/Pledge Drive, it can be explained as thus: once a year, the Funky16Corners Blog<\/strong>, your home for the best in funk, soul, jazz and rare groove vinyl for almost 10 years comes to you with hand outstretched, asking for donations to offset the operating expenses of the web site.<\/p>\n

The money raised during the pledge drive goes to pay for the server space and fees associated with hosting the whole megillah.<\/p>\n

As has been attested to many times in the past, Funky16Corners has humble beginnings, starting out on the old (free) Blogger service, moving to WordPress, and then to self-hosted WordPress. The move to paid hosting was necessitated by increased bandwidth usage, as well as the need for a place to store all the mixes (and eventually the radio show episodes).<\/p>\n

The Allnighter\/Pledge Drive is a once-yearly occurrence, in which yours truly, and some of the finest selectors out there whip up new mixes for your delectation.<\/p>\n

In past years, I have posted all of the mixes in a single post, and left it up for a week.<\/p>\n

This year, the quality and quantity of the mixes spurred me on to try something a little different, i.e. posting a new mix each weekday for a period of just over two weeks. This way, each selector gets their moment in the spotlight, and the mixes get spaced out so that the listeners don\u2019t suffer from mix-fatigue.<\/p>\n

Each day, you\u2019ll get a fantastic mix (there really are some amazing ones this year) from one of my favorite DJs, many of whom have participated in the Allnighter before, as well as a couple of great new contributors.<\/p>\n

So, if you dig what we do here at Funky16Corners, click on the Paypal<\/strong> link and toss some cash into the barrel.<\/p>\n

Contributors will receive a 2014 Allnighter badge, as well as some stickers from the archive (as long as they last).<\/p>\n

\"Example\" <\/strong><\/p>\n

This year I will also be drawing the names of contributors at random for groovy swag, including CDs and 45s from Cultures of Soul,<\/strong>\u00a0and CDs from Light in the Attic<\/strong> and Secret Stash.<\/strong><\/p>\n

So, dig the sounds for the next couple of weeks, and make sure you stop back on a daily basis to pick up new mixes and contribute for a chance to win some cool stuff.<\/p>\n

Thanks, and as always,<\/p>\n

Keep the faith<\/strong><\/p>\n

Larry<\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/p>\n
