Exclusive New DJ Center Radio Show + Event

Posted by Mimi Lin, Feb 28, 11:20 AM EST

With radio shows from Gilles Peterson, Los Amigos Invisibles and one from Jazzanova coming shortly, we are pleased to add DJ Center to the lineup with 'Music Lounge Radio.'

All things have always been and are musically sound for DJ Center. His resume boasts of international touring in the lands of the U.S., Europe, Australia and New Zealand in addition to spearheading the move of the popular Los Angeles-based party, The Rootdown, to New York City.

DJ Center’s uncanny skill lies in his ability to recreate original contexts of the tracks he spins, and his immediate impact in setting the scene. In a single evening he can transport the crowd out to Puerto Rico in 1976, over to the Chicago of the 80s, down to Brazil for batucada and back to New York in time for a 90s neo-soul party. He becomes a musical tour guide, scratching, cutting and blending through all the dips, twists and turns of each genre. Revelers find themselves passengers on a musical journey- singing the songs they have always cherished, dancing to rhythms they have forgotten and broadening their horizons with songs as yet unheard.

With established residencies at Triple Crown, Brooklyn and Belmont Lounge, NYC, along with having shared turntable shine with the likes of legendaries Pete Rock, ?uestlove, Grandmaster Flash, Bobbito, Spinna, Qool Marv, DJ Center proves to be next in line.

Speaking of next, DJ Center’s latest undertaking, The Music Lounge is a live blend of a real music experience with the ambience of future soul. Launching March 12th at Movida, NYC, with every 2nd Sunday following, The Music Lounge will be home to producers, DJ’s and vocalists alike, to explore, collaborate and create a live jam session for music lovers of deep hip hop beats, souljazz and eclectic sounds from around the world.

One last thing – if you haven’t already, you can get a taste of DJ Center in his double disc Feel What I’m Feelin’ with a side of hip hop soul mix and the other pure jazz – You’re guaranteed to find something delightful! Sold here at giantstepstore.net

Enjoy ya’ll! – and go feel what Center’s feelin’!
