Episode #17- Shaolin Soul: Foundations of WU [Black History Month Tribute to Music]

In Celebration of Black History Month, a group of us from BK/Vancouver got together to throw an event: Shaolin Soul:Foundations of WU [A Black History Month Tribute to Music] At Fortune Sound Club (Vancouver, BC) The Party concept and Mixtape/Podcast were inspired by the Wu-Tang Clan's "Shaolin Soul" albums, which pay tribute to the Original Songs sampled/that influenced their music. In a Radio Interview w/ Evolution Radio 107.9, I mentioned that, 'Sampling is like our generation's "Oral Tradition". In Africa, stories are passed along in this manner, and I've realized this is how stories are passed along now, through Music." In an Effort to pass along the "Music Tradition" a % of our Proceeds are being donated to Templeton Secondary School's Jazz Music Program. Hopefully the proceeds and donated instruments will enrich a child's life and allow them the gift of music, that all should have. I hope you Enjoy this mix, it was quite the "Labor of Love"...and marks Black History Month 2011! Light & Love, ~DJ Lady Lane~ DONATE WATCH PARTY Thank You...
