PARADISE LOFT RADIO TAKING OVER THE AIRWAVES
The name Paradise Loft is an amalgamation of Paradise Garage and the Loft. They were the names of two of the most influential New York Nightclubs of the 70's/80's that housed the birth of dance music as we know it today.
The two clubs were completely focused on music. Paradise Garage was a real party where people went to dance themselves good, where as The Loft was much more spiritual and intimate. They were both places of excess, refuge, liberation, spirituality, release and we truly wish we had been able to be a part of them. Listen in and hear influences in our selections from these two meccas of the night.
Paradise Loft radio is the story of two brothers, their love of soul music and a strong desire to share it with the world. With very different tastes in music they have found common ground on certain cross over genres. This has allowed each of them to learn about new grooves.
Miles G is an old hand in the Radio game and has held residencies at two radio stations spanning years. He has an amazing ear for for jazz and funk fusion while still bringing a lot of late 70's, early 80's disco grooves. Miles' selections are always a little to the left which is great for the diversity of the program. Expect to hear new tunes to have you all over Discogs!
Pony Boy comes from the DJ background and has been collecting records for the last eight years. While living in England he made a point of using his time wisely and acquired many oddities that he brings to the program. In more recent times Pony Boy has been involved the production of music. August, 2012 saw the release of Flip The Coin by Freekwency where Pony Boy wrote the song and was also responsible for the vocals. Pony Boy will be bringing the DJ approach to the show with blends, mixes and lots of 12 inch selections!
There will be guests from time to time sharing a little piece of their collection. A brother from the same Mother, DJ Hands Solo will be joining us on the reg before he splits over to New York to get to the bottom of all this Disco business! We'd also like to thank him for his handy work on the Paradise Loft Logo. (Re-worked for Paradise Loft Radio by a special guest... website here)
We are true believers in Vinyl and play only Vinyl. (unless we are forwarded new works only available as an mp3) Through this we can tell a tale about how these records were acquired and the wild stories attached to the journey called record collecting.
Please feel free to contact us with any questions. We will endevour to have track lists available from each show online for you closely following the ending of a program.
First show will be avaliable for download shortly.
