So we’ve all finally done IT once again!
Always sort of bizarre to wake up one day then telling yourself that there will be no tomorrow as far as a period such as the one we’ve been livin’ for almost 10 days is over. You sort of feel like an impression of coma, being taken from a non-stop boiling frenziness to a land of almost nuttin’ the minute after… That’s about how one usually feels when on its way back from Miami and, believe it or not, that’s about the same for us here on the other side of your screens after so many hours spent to be right on time in regards to our series of Florida daily deadlines…
We would like first to thank those who’ve actively helped us doin’ our job, should it be in Miami while welcoming the members of our team, incl. the M3 Summit people for havin’ us once again amongst their press partners. But also those who’ve accepted to take some of their precious time answerin’ our Q’s. Not to mention, on a more internal side, IDMW.Com technical guru Jean-Jérôme Lebel who, despite havin’ recently relocated to another area, has found the time to give the necessary help.
As a result and a direct consequence, things are to be much slower this week here on IDMW.Com apart from the expected after Miami reviews from our local correspondants. This said, you’re left with quite a lot to read, beginning with all those interviews we’ve put out as a part of our coverage of the Miami festivities, from bouncefm.com head Muema to Wil Milton, Steal Vybe, Ron Trent, King Street CEO Hisa Ishioka, RaShaan Houston, Jon Cutler, Kenny Carpenter and Fuzion Records pair Franke Estevez & George Mena in addiction to that long chat we’ve managed to have with disco supremo Patrick Adams…
MUEMA: also known under the BigHaus guise on many dedicated forums as well as the head of bouncefm.com, a space standing as one of the most serious and respected platforms in the world as far as (true) house is concerned...
WIL MILTON: from Wave Music to West End and more recently King Street, multi talented NYC DJ/producer Wil Milton of Blakink Productions has delivered some of the most beautiful pieces of music over the last years
STEAL VYBE: Re-designing the groove with their magic fingers, Chris ‘Cee Rule’ Forman and Damon ‘Mr Dizzy Fingers’ Bennett count amongst the most creative forces which have emerged along the last months. Check’em out!
RON TRENT: Relocated to his Chicago hometown, the future of the Africa Hi Fi resident has never looked so bright with a whole bunch a new projects awaited to see the day.
KING STREET: Entering its 14th year of activities makes this NYC house label the longest running of the likes. Quick reminder with CEO Hisa Ishioka.
RASHAAN HOUSTON: The former Pound Boys singer proves how he can make it on his own with a couple of boiling hot cuts ready to rock the floor…
JON CUTLER: The typical history of a man who, despite having known a period of doubt, has, unlike many of his pairs, remained true to who he is.
KENNY CARPENTER: 30 years of continuous activities and the beat goes on for this NY DJ/producer responsible of a killer tune soon to be released on Slaag Records.
FRANKE ESTEVEZ & GEORGE MENA: Together as one, those two NJ producers who’ve given birth to the Fuzion label look like unstoppable…
PATRICK ADAMS: Responsible of some of the much sought after tunes 30 years after their initial release, Patrick Adams is considered as the uncrowned king of disco. Full story
Time now to get some slight & necessary recovery. From everyone here on IDMW.Com, thank you for your continuous visits,
Frederic ‘MFSB’ Messent, editor
INDAMIXWORLDWIDE.COM: Only the best, No time for the rest!
