Description

This compilation is John Morales third for BBE. Few can match his contributions to the world of Dance Music be it soul, funk, disco to today’s house music. This is Part A of a 2 part vinyl set.

John Morales is considered one of the true legends of the mix. And his work some thirty years later continues to be cutting edge and inspiring. Although familiar with John’s work – his epic mix of Universal Robot Bands boogie anthem “Barely Breakin Even” is the source from which BBE Records got its name.

No attempt had ever been made to summarise the pinnacle of Johns work. This third release on BBE continues that history lesson that John has forged in dance music. He formed The M+M Mix with his late partner Sergio Munzibai, in 1982 till 1990 whose output of over 650 mixes will be unmatched today. John continues The M+M legacy.

From the Rolling Stones to Gloria Estefan, The Temptations, Barry White, Marvin Gaye, James Brown, Hall & Oates, Teena Marie, Aretha Franklin to BBE – we have all been molded by John’s everlasting mix influence, love for his work and his Music..

On Disc 1 we have John’s epic mixes of Barry White’s Never, Never Gonna Give Ya Up and Jean Carn’s Was That All It Was – although both classic tracks, John reinvents them in a way that makes you feel like you are hearing it for the first time. The master of the drop, the breakdown on Was That All It Was touches the soul in a way that has you on your knees.

Disc 2 is a bit more upbeat affair with two tried and tested dancefloor destroyers – John takes Teddy’s anthem If You Know Like I Know to an ever higher level, whilst his The M&M Stepping Out The Door mix of Sander Barber into deeper territory. Each mix is perfectly crafted as you would expect.

Tracklist:
A – Barry White – Never, Never Gonna Give Ya Up (M+M Keep On Doin’ It Mix)
B – Jean Carn – Was That It Was (M+M South Philly Groove Mix)
C – Teddy Pendergrass – If You Know Like I Know (M+M Teddy Know Best Mix)
D – Sandy Barber – I Think I’ll Do Some Stepping On My Own (The M+M Stepping Out The Door Mix)
