We need some Daz-I-Kue love up in here.
Honestly, dude’s been putting up so many good house mixes on the interwebs these days, I haven’t even been able to pick out a single one to post. It’s like choosing which one of your brother’s kids is your favorite — you can do it, sure (it’s not like they’re your kids), but you’re probably still gonna feel...

Ohhhh lord, some more goodness out of Miami here. Compliments of the CHAMPION SOUND crew and their weekly party at the Electric Pickle comes this promo mix, CHAMPION SOUND RADIO (download link), with the night’s resident DJs and badasses, Sire Esq, A-Train, and Mr. Brown throwing down for about 15 minutes each in this 45 minute set. We’re talking hip-hop, funk, soul, latin bit of...

Been hibernating for a minute, but it’s hard to sleep on tunes like this. DJ Alex J. drops his “Sounds from the 7th Dimension” mix, promoting Digable Planets recently launched tour. From the blurb: “The mixtape will include exclusive rare remixes of classic Digable Planets songs and will also include new unreleased songs from Butterfly and Doodlebug.” Some serious...

Alright, some off-the-cuff shit here from yours truly, old-school B&C radio show styles, in an attempt to keep up with fresh mixes here. Just a quick set on my day off, a tribute to the end of a summer we barely got to know, complete with some admittedly sloppy mixing and chooooice tunes. A lot of boogie and disco, some newer ish to balance out the old stuff, and some proper house to keep...

When I started the original B&C site in Miami back in the day (back when “BLOG” was just some crazy shit homeless dudes shouted at you on the street), one of the first outside mixes I propped was from NYC’s DJ Raeo, perennial champion of dense downtempo soundscapes and sexy seamless blends that are sure to get any guy laid when played at the right moment. Just happens when...

Fresh fresh fresh stuff here from fellow former Miamian, b-boy, DJ, perpetual world traveler, and all around cool motherfucker… Tre Swift. “Expected Hectic Eclectic” describes it all, pretty diverse with reeeal a nice vibe throughout. Soul, hip-hop, some electro boogie and R&B, heavy bass-ness, jungle beats, and breaks… basically all the kind of shit that makes me...
Time for part 2 of the series I’m calling Mr. Brown Gets Shit Done. More boogie, funk, soul, rare groove, and other fine vibes to hold your attention in these Facebooking, iPhoning, ADD-inflicted times, from one of Miami’s finest DJs and crate diggers. Check it and pay your respects on his Soundcloud account in hopes that it’ll motivate him to get outta the stacks for a minute...
Well, 2009’s must be the summer of people getting shit done, because I’m sitting here with not one but two new mixes from original B&C lord of the decks, one of the hosts of Miami’s weekly Champion Sound party, perpetually crate-digging ambassador to Miami’s music scene, and all around lazy motherfucker, Mr. Brown. The guy who spends so much time in dusty back rooms...

So I used to have this site, once upon a time, called Bridge & Causeway. Kept it up for, hell, something just shy of 8 years. That’s a long time in both music terms and internet terms. It was a lot of different things at a lot of different times but regardless of whatever happened under that name it always had music, lots of music, and (hopefully) helped play its part in making the world...
