Soul A:M Records ft Master J Podcast
Music:Music History
1978
The year dance music evolved with sights that set the floors alight,
Polyester shirts and pashmina flows of glam clothes hit the scene for those in the know!
Record companies spawn away from the generic tone! Whilst artists formally unknown multiply and clone,
A tempo is born from 4 beats on the floor! Creating an uplifting tempo, that kept you up all night craving for more, more, more…
Being overweight in club world was rare… As your moves toned by the Grooves burned the calories away! As body positivity became the new rage?
We wished the working week away! To get out in front of your Local DJ…
As the euphoria grew! So did your blood pressure! What was once reserved for behind closed doors was now displayed on the dance floors! Hedonistic Voyouristic flirtatious… and very dangerous!!
Little did we know hanging loose would soon be blamed… As out of the darkness came AIDs…
Something that has never sat quite right with the name… almost as if it was man-made to shame.
The birth of the Disc Jockey was also born, spinning the latest Sound's a few Pioneered the craft in the Art of melding beats matching rarities into new uplifting feats out of the lofts & Garages Block parties often replicated but never quite re-created,
Groovy tunes popular on the streets were cut up into beats from sounds seg-wayed straight from the Get down!
The objective… to extend the joyful parts of the records, inspiring the extended hits aka the 12” mix.
Just in case you enjoyed nostalgia within My rhyme,
Wait until you hear next week..
