Original Sample : Curtis Mayfield - Right on For The Darkness

Original sample of Mase feat Total - What you want released in 1998 (vid)



Here's Mr Curtis Mayfield - Right on For The Darkness From The LP "Back to The World" released in 1973, To me the best song of the LP, Enjoy it at 320k


Passion - Don't Stop my Love [12 Inch extended + Instrumental]

Another ultimate Boogie from prelude. This time, track is written by Kashif, who is generally better known as a producer, but he signs this crazy song. The bass is really strong as always, but this one has the little something that makes you push the "repeat" button like crazy. Another version fron Dr York was released in 1985, from the Lp York(UK)/Dr York (US). Enjoy!

Label: Prelude Records

Year: 1982

Mixed By: François Kevorkian

Written: Kashif

Secret Weapon - Dj man 12"

To start this prelude 12" session, What do you think about a good Secret Weapon? If you get bored of listening to the Must be the music, Which kills by the way, you should definitely have a look at the Dj men, the best instrumental of the band. piano, guitar, everything is there. Don't miss the HUGE Bass break, with the slap of Jerome Prister.

Prelude Records



We're moving for a session of prelude Records, but before, few words about the label. Originally Called Pye Records, became Prelude records in 1976. The Label was started by Marvin Schlachter in New York.

The Guy in charge of the remixing was Francois kevorkian, or Francois K.

Good to know that the 2 best sellers of the label were... "D" Train and france Joli.

Take the time to read the interview of Schlachter by discoguy, it's really worth it!
