disaster prone part 2

“A raspy-voiced and diminutive queer rapper in throwback-eighties-chic screams overtly sexual call-and-response commands. A special-ed teacher with the authoritative demeanor of an army TAC officer instructs you to “Walk it like a dog” and “Do the Jubilee All”, a middle-aged mother yells fighting words at a rival. All of this over frantic, break-neck beats sampled from a small smattering of funk and hip-hop oldies. This is the sound of New Orleans Bounce.  From darkened clubs to tricked-out cars, high school dances to neighborhood bars, family reunions, barbecues and birthday parties, New Orleans locals of all ages have been bouncing to “Dat Beat” since the early nineties, incorporating the rhythms and vocal styling of second-line street parades, undulating Caribbean and African dance moves, and stolen hooks ranging from Beyonce to Bill Haley. It’s the sound on the street in the City that Care Forgot,, the booty-shaking cousin to Miami Bass, Detroit Ghettotech, Baltimore Club, but with the chaos and audacity of punk, a spirit that reflects the chaos and audacity of the Crescent City that birthed Bounce music

A native Dirty Southerner and long-time New Orleans resident, Deejay Karo offers up this mix as a taste of Bounce from the last several years. These tracks were recorded off of burnt cd’s, traded back and forth by local dj’s, producers and performers and  bought out of car trunks beneath the live oaks of uptown or in beauty supply store parking lots. Because of this, making a track listing would be next to impossible, but here are the names of some of the performers and producers in the mix:
Blaq N Mild, Peacachoo, J Rock, Showbiz CJ, Big Freedia, Sissy Nobby,Magnolia Shorty, 10thWard Buck, Gotti Boi Chris, Katey Red, Smitty Out Da City, Monsta wit da Fade… Respect and Love to everyone featured and deepest apologies those we didn’t rep in this list” dj beeskness   <span><a href=”http://soundcloud.com/deejaykaro/disaster-prone-part-2″>disaster prone part 2</a> by <a href=”http://soundcloud.com/deejaykaro”>deejaykaro</a></span>

Land of the Lost

June 8, 2010

In 2006 I found myself drifting from city to city country to country. At some point I stopped long enough to make this mix. It is pretty much my dj set at that time. It was all records. No ableton live. In the spirit  of the dope mash-up. Hip-hop, ragga, breakbeats, electro  I even thru in some Steve Miller Band.the search for the perfect beat land of the lost

If you live in Nola you know what its about. Bounce rules the street here.  This mix is made of some of my favorite. Its a mad form of music.  If you wanna know more about the history of bounce check out this.

Its free, but if you feel compelled to donate, it would be much appreciated.
