CHECK THE BLOG: WWW.PARISDJS.COM !!! Filled with beautiful and exclusive artwork, photos, playlist, and more surprises!! This week it's party time with... Loik - West Indies Vintage Funk (MP3 Podcast on ParisDJs.com) Kraked, 2006-02-06 Info : True French digging - it's not in L.A. that this one could have been laid to you! Rare and unexpected vinyls, Funk directly from from Haiti, Cuba, the Barbados, Belize, the Antilles and even a peel of Jamaica. A Homage also to the superb label work from Isma'a or BNO who keep on seeking the graals of a groove which without their passion would be too often forgotten. Go now "ROULE" like the mythical hit from La Perfecta says, which devastated all the West-Indian dancefloors in the 70's.
