Super proud of this track green pastures with @scarlet.macaw .
When I first heard Sam freestyle over my tunes I was hooked 🎣.
It’s not often you get to make music with people that you can cut loose with.
He’s a certified FTSC
It’s mental how good he is and he’s just starting.
Still working on my Ep and it’ll be out by the end of the year. 🤙
This track Francis Grasso. I wanted to pay homage and respect to the person who pioneered Dj’ing. Even though Its not disco, the same techniques that francis introduced still apply to techno and trance.
I honestly wish that he could of been around for longer so he could of seen the impact of his legacy on music overall.
In a Central Park club called Salvation 2, Francis Grasso went behind the turntables for the first time when the club manager asked him to fill in for the house DJ, who was ill
With an understanding of the psychology of the dance floor, he slowly began to retool the job of the D.J. As he saw it, his job wasn’t simply to play records, it was to keep the crowd on the dance floor.
The best way to do that was to make one song seem to stretch on forever, without a break. This helped create the notion of the disc jockey as artist and live remixer.
At first he would start a new song on the same beat that ended the previous song (by holding the record still as the turntable spun below it, a technique known as slip-cueing).
“Back then, you couldn’t adjust the speeds. You had to catch it at the right moment. There was no room for error. And you couldn’t play catch up. You couldn’t touch the turntables. I had Thorens, and you couldn’t do that on Thorens. All you had to do was start at the right moment. Nobody mixed like me. Nobody was willing to hang out that long. Because if you hang out that long, the chances of mistakes are that much greater. But to me it was second nature. I did it like I walk my dog.” – Francis Grasso.
