TY LE NOL!!!
mike,
as i mentioned if lissete melendez's (FOR EXAMPLE, and any other records holding a new sound, by old or new artist)"time passes by" time warp mix would of been added...it would of been considered new school, as far as the new sound/current sound goese. as it is still slammin in different pockets.
Cynthias "thinking about you", rockells "tears" are new school releases......but also fall on the "newschool traditional" lines of things.unlike other forms of "traditional" beats and sounds, these records are very basic in their structure and are what people have come to expect freestyle records to soundlike.they also hold that Robbins freestyle sound to them, although basic still hold like a crisp clean sound. this formula works for these records, butthat crisp clean sound doesnt really work for everyone. Some projects who hold this may come out to fabricated sounding and some people still like that old school roughness in their freestyle records, traditinal or nu breaks.it gives it more of an undergound feel.
However safires "Eyes of a stranger" is str8 up new school electrobreaks/freestyle.that song is awsome and should of had more remixes. Now if Rockells "what u did to me"(LINUS MIX), would of been added(ironicaly it came out before "tears"), that would of been included as "new school electrobreaks/freestyle).simply cuz the whole song structure is new and the sound is current and not what people expected a freestyle record to sound like. same goese with Cythias "SAVE YOUR LOVE FOR ME", although basic, still held new electro sounds to the synthisizer work, and that alone would of made it "new school electro breaks/freestyle".
i did say new school is PRODOMINANTLY a new generation of artist with a new sound and new original material. however i do remember including somewhere that i also said that it is also an older artist with a new sound a classic song remade with updated sounds and an artist's own artistic influences.
maybe i didnt add that to this exact post, but one that was similar and just got them confused. i write alot and tend to lose track of what i typed where.
dj shyman.......yes, if a record came out 5 years ago or close enough ..it is old. but it doese not really consider OLD SKOOL.
For example....i lost track of where i was at ..but there was this party and they promised they were going to play old school. it was 1998...and they started playing all this collage and planet rock beated records that were realesed though those previous eight years.
that is not OLD SCHOOL! REAL old school is anything that is past a 12 year period, as in classics.
when i hear old school, i dont wna hear denine........i wana hear debbie debs "cuz im searchin", Company b's "jam on me", Rios "hold me", cynthia roundstree"stop searching for love" joey kids "everything i own". REAL old school by REAL pioneers.
kenny: hmmmm what can i say when you put 1+1=2
salb + managment and booking+ the fever records roster and website+ the fact that ERIKA aint working for him cuz she came to florida+ all those events he has with fever freestyle related artist+ the knowledge and ceartain way he writes+ a good position at clubfreestyle.com = sal abatiello???
is there any chance that the former president of the leading top latinhiphop/freestyle label. the label atthe front lines of the whole latin freestyle movement, could possibly be also known as SALB.
thats what it looks like. how many sal's do you know that fit the profile.
i could be wrong..i dont know. but if i am right and salb is sal abateillo...in front of everyone..i bow down to the man, the legend and give my thanks, deepest respect and humiliations.
#2 "why go to another site? it will only bring you down and NO ONE in the INDUSTRY will RESPECT you".
kenny, i like you and think your cool. but those are strong words.
I JONPITO am GOING to write for the site that started it all for me.
PEOPLE in the INDUSTRY have had RESPECT for ME MANY MANY MANY YEARS. NOT ONLY In FREESTYLE POCKETS, BUT ALSO in the communities and pockets of HOUSE, TRANCE,HOPHOP and all other pockets of GLOBAL ELECTRONIC MUSIC FORMS.
If a ceartain pocket of freestyle people want to down play that or fail to recognize ,it is ok. I have the army of the NU-electro freestyle breaks, the electro breaks scene, the electro bass scene, the electro clash scene, the trance and progressive house scene, the gay scene and many other scenes that are rallying behind me as I speak.All scenes that are having major impacts around new york, florida, the south east california,london, france,germany and across the globe.
also participation of global radio stations, satilite radio, club owners,promoters, artist, club/venues and my teams television show.
Out of this will rise the fisrt steps of the NU-freestyle and latin breaks electro dance Movement for 2004.
I might loose respect from a few, but gain much more and out rank others in many ways.
I have always been known to help others,especially those with lo funds and have learned to dodge and jump through all the red tape and drama this industry has. TRUE freestyle PIONEERS remeber what things where like, especially for us young hispanics when they first started out with this freestyle thing. so now not only have i won them over and also gained their respect, but they also will not only open doors FOR ME, but for MY WHOLE GENERATION of freestyle, breaks, and dance artist and industry people.i have had, have and will continue to have respect and above all LOVE from many.
to read something like that actually kinda hurts, especially on a site that i have spent so manytimes coming to and sharing what i know and have learned with others.
i posted some of this info before on clubfreestyle.com, and i also posted how i didnt feel that websites should compete againts each other. instead help each other out as a link community,since all freestylewebsites up now each have a diferent structure.some are message board based, others are internet radio based, others just have info about other parts of the world.I believd in a whole community link for this whole genre of music. however..i dont find what i posted anywhere on this site. it must of not gone through or stoped by a moderator.
either way....everything that is blocked or lost, anyway people treat me or have treated me in the past 5 years good or bad, any attitudes expressed towards me.......will be aknowledged for the whole DANCE music community to see.
i might still show up to club freestyle and answer questions and help out other members of club freestyle that our in the industry with info or hook em up with things they might need.
i do hope to continue good ties with many companies and websites and unite this community once and for all.
As i have learned and teach others that we should not burn down bridges....you never know who you might need tomorow for that favor, job, or justthat GOOD WORD.
Coming from me those words should be soothing to others who might read this post....as i am known to be a musical war lord and purist.
francis, its already being writen and im also back to the world in about a month or month and a halph. not only to the fm.c, but to one with a whole new image and movment with a strugle.
