COLL: DJ-Kicks: Motor City Drum Ensemble Label: !K7 Motor City Drum Ensemble (MCDE) is the brilliant DJ-Producer Danilo Plessow from Germany. Danilo was a guest at KZSU (on Holt's show) in summer 2010. MCDE's music encompasses decades worth of music, from soul, disco, jazz, funk, house, and techno. Even though he's only 25 years old, Danilo demonstrates his knowledge of the roots of dance music by crafting this mix-CD using all these styles. This is an incredible mix CD. All songs are great. If you like soul, try tracks 1-5, if you like house, try 6-10, and for vintage beats, try 14-15 & 17-18. 1) soul classic, clasp & vocals, sparse & chill 2) more classic soul, smooth sensual vox 3) stripped-down dub, very stoney 4) African chant, goes into disco beat 5) Nu-soul, funky house, great deep soul vox 6) Deep house, 70's style organ edits (think Metro Area) 7) bouncy house classic, groovy bass 8) deep house classic, w/ soulful male vox 9) deep house classic, w/ funky squeaky loop 10) deep house classic, w/ simple piano loop & synth 11) disco! w/ claps, fem vox chorus 12) electo-fied funk, w/ congas 13) Euro-flavored lounge 14) detroit classic, techno w/ acid hook 15) jackin' house w/ simple male vox sample 16) straight-up disco w/ lots of congas & vox 17) deep house mixdown of styles represented in mix, produced by MCDE himself 18) minimal tech-house loop 19) stripped down dubby house 20) chill-out lounge w/ retro spy-vibe 21) acid-jazz w/ Afro-Cuban horn melody 22) old-school soul-disco, fem vox | ||
