Paris DJs Soundsystem presents Vito - Selecta 01 - Soulful Grooves
(Wearplay T-shirt/MP3 Podcast on www.ParisDJs.com) 2018-06-04

A long-time activist of the French music scene, Vito has never sold his soul to the music industry. Quite the opposite, he was a member of the Heretik crew, and probably one of the amazing guys who made the legendary rave at the Piscine Molitor in Paris happen, during the spring of 2001 (among other unreal events). A friend of the Paris DJs collective before it even existed, Vito has just always been there, with a deep and constructive sharing spirit. He recently decided to start preparing some soulful mixes for the Paris DJs podcast, and being fully aware of the man's record collection & taste, we're for sure getting the red carpet out for him. Here's his first selection, hopefully the first in a long series…

Paris DJs Soul System - Wearplay LP#29 - Live Dub Session 2018
(Wearplay T-shirt/MP3 Podcast on www.ParisDJs.com) 2018-05-12

Back from their gig at the Glastonbury Festival in 2013, the Paris DJs collective decided to up the game with a brand new stage concept called the Paris DJs Soul System, an innovative show blending deejaying and old school dub session, all with original tunes and remixes, taken from nearly two decades of music production. From Jamaican soul, ska, rocksteady & reggae to American funk & jazz, Nigerian afrobeat or Cameroonian funk, Grant Phabao managed to cross the boundaries of music categorization. With the Dreadless Soldier, alias famous Parisian DJ Erik Rug, they are the first incarnation of the Paris DJs Soul System, presenting here a one hour-long live set, recorded at Paris DJs' studio at the end of 2017. The mix is available as a free download, or Wearplay T-shirt designed by poster artist Ben Hito, using some of the work he did for the Grant Phabao Afrofunk Arkestra album cover (album to be released mid-june 2018 as a limited edition 250 copies vinyl LP, pre-order here).
