NU MUSIC: “WISHING WELL” (CMAN EDIT) – TERENCE TRENT D’ARBY

October 23, 2023

Terence Trent D’Arby: Wishing Well (CMAN Edit) TTT – Wishing Well (CMAN Edit) – 2 Versions by DJ CMAN This release is only available on Bandcamp Terence Trent D’Arby, is a gem from the late 80’s UK music scene and swept many off their feet with his debut album “Introducing the Hardline According To.” His hits “Wishing Well” and “Sign Your Name” were anthems of the era and had decent commercial success.

New Music: Kool & The Gang – Give It Up + Don’t Sweat The Technique Remaster

December 28, 2022

Season’s greeting folks! Here is a re-work on the original funky-jazz track recorded in 1969-1970 by “Kool & The Gang – Give it Up” CMAN Edit. This song has been widely sampled most noteably by Eric B & Rakim’s late 80’s/early 90’s breakers anthem “Don’t Sweat The Technique (check out the 2023 Remaster version here). Downloadable versions seee below. The early and original Kool and the Gang’s pre-disco work in the early to mid-late 70’s is musicianship at it’s finest and timeless in my opinion. Tracks like NT, Duji and so many other lesser known ones (before the band crossed

The BEST Music Documentary of it’s kind I’ve ever seen ….. “Summer of Soul” It’s unbelievable to think that this footage has been hidden away for over 50 years and it’s only just now being released.
