Fresh from getting some masterful mastering from Steve Starks, here’s a Sol Power rework of the classic Colombian cumbia dancer by Grupo Niche, Mi Machete. I hope this one brings some good times to your local dancefloor!

DJ Stereo 77 has been steadily releasing some great material, from moombahton for the club, to salsa refixes por la playa. Here are a couple recent joints I’ve been feeling and a mix that’s sure to stay in steady rotation for me, called Ricanstructions.

This won’t knock the earth off it’s axis, but it’s pretty fresh — 8 De La Soul songs over beats constructed with Fela Kuti samples. This trend of mashing up artists is getting a little tired, but this is worth a few listens.

Still counting down to the end of summer, nine days from this posting to be exact. Here’s my salute and farewell. Took an acoustic version of a Stevie Wonder classic and tweaked it for the dancefloor. There’s more of these in the chamber so stay tuned.

Here are a couple of soon-to-be Sol Power staples from our DC-brethren-by-way-of-Los Angeles, Kid Gusto. Haven’t seen dude in a minute, but his joints are always in the play crates. Check out more on his SoundCloud. Lots o treats.
The remix gods have been kind this month. Here’ s a preview of the ‘Two for Tuesday Remixes EP’ Volume 1, presented by yours truly. Enjoy!

Here’s something to welcome everyone back from the holiday. Came across this on a digging mission and found some goodness on it to kick off the Sol Power remix series. Learned a lot more about older Dominican merengue in the process. This is why we still buy records.
Check out Angelito Villalona covering the original in place of his brother, the legendary “El Mayimbe”.
