guest deejay:
CENTER
Brooklyn’s resident soul provider, DJ Center, transports audiences from future soul sessions in Brooklyn, to Puerto Rico circa 1976, down to Brazil for Batucada and back to New York in time for a '90s hip-hop party’. His 2006 mix CD, Feel What I'm Feelin, garnered international acclaim and URB MAGAZINE praised it as, "expertly blended, lovingly conceived..." Center is in Los Angeles this week promoting “Tout Passe”, the first single off his summer 2009 EP release, Everything In Time, featuring the sweet vocals of Tunisian-French singer, Ms. Samia Farah.
