Marc Mac – Dusty Disco Crates by Laid Back on Mixcloud ::::

Marc Mac presents 60 minutes of funky, jazzy disco grooves exclusive for Laid Back “mixtape style”. The mix looks back on the era where Disco & early Hip Hop co-existed; when breakers & fly dancers would hit the dance floor as the DJ spun their favorite breakdowns or a fly Disco groove, the MC would rock the mic for a short burst to keep the party live and fresh. Although these days Disco sometimes is thought of as being cheesy & cheap (and a good proportion of it is) Hip Hop culture and good DJ’s always had the ear for finding the best out of any form of music and making it hip…

Marc Mac’s output includes his work as one half of 4hero, Visioneers, Natures Plan and Nu Era; plus productions for Jill Scott to Roy Ayers, Phonte to Terry Callier. After Visioneers’ debut album “Dirty Old Hip Hop” (2006), BBE records releases Marc Mac’s new album under the Visioneers moniker “HIPOLOGY”

If she hadn’t been so bone-deep jetlagged, Max Foss might have paid more attention to the ominous profile on the other side of the front door. She might have reasoned that it was pretty late for a natural gas scam artist to prowl around her Newark, Delaware neighbourhood, looking for someone to fall for the old “I can save you so much money if you’ll just give me your credit card number” trick.

When she opened her front door, the last thing Maxine Foss expected was a hot stranger with a set of handcuffs. Now she’s shackled to a sexy, but crazy, person who claims he’s an Arabian prince—and her lover. No way. If she had ever gotten naked with a guy this delicious, she would never forget.

Insanity is catching…
Alone in a secluded cabin, Sayd offers his body for her pleasure. But the price for giving in to temptation could be her sanity, not to mention her freedom… and just maybe, her life :: Buy Now at Amazon.com »»»»

Blogging, it’s personal

Blogging does so much more than simply create leads or generate sales. Blogging creates communities, reinforces branding, but most importantly, blogging instils trust…
