Rahaan – Backyard Boogie exclusive

tim — Tue, 17 May 2011 11:48:21 +0000

It’s been a long-time, so welcome aboard backyard boogie as Rahaan brings the heat to the Love Unlimited HQ. We caught him rocking the small but perfect ‘Sink’ in Liverpool…he was firing then & firing on this lovely exclusive follow-up mix.

Rahaan is now renowned globally for his edits and jacking Disco sets, since the mid 80’s he’s been collecting and playing Disco and House music, rising through the ranks of the underground clubs of the Windy City to spinning at venues around the world including Japan, Europe and Australia.

As a result he’s gained legendary status internationally so as ever we are both happy & honoured to host this mix.

Real high quality from the off, you know you are in for a treat …very funky and very energetic, this mix covers the full soul spectrum with house, disco, boogie, soul & the odd Latin treat, for us this stands up to any of his other quality mixes available in our archive and elsewhere on the web.

No track list as usual – real spotters delight….please feel free to fill in the blanks by leaving a comment.
