- We have more scoop
from the Bay Area California. Unique Elementz label owner Tony
B. has two new artists Mari Poza and Galvatron that
are looking to make some noise, real soon. They are all currently in the
studio with Slammin’ Sam, and should have some new releases early

promotional 12” wax.

- Quick on the heals
of their latest installment of the popular Masters of Freestyle
compilation series, Gold Edition Volume 4, Pandisc Records
has another star-studded compilation coming out: A Night at
Casanovas, mixed by DJ Ciro Llerena. The compilation pays
homage to the legendary Casanovas night club located in Hialeah,
Florida. From the late 70s to the early 90s, hundreds of acts including
Madonna, Vickie Sue Robinson, The Village People,
Sheila E, France Joli, and Lime, performed there.
The turntables were manned by DJ Carlos "No Show" Nodal, who
eventually nurtured an underage protégé – a 14-year-old Ciro Llerena.
According to Bo Crane, of Pandisc this CD “represents a musical
snapshot of a typical Saturday night set as mixed by DJ Ciro Llerena…Volume
One is heavy on the Freestyle music that ruled the dance floor during
the later years of Casanovas run."

- We received two interesting notices of
invitation recently. The first was from legendary producer Carlos
“After Dark” Berrios (“Together Forever”, “He’s My Baby Now”) with
an open call for new artists to apply for future production work. “As
much as I've said that I would never produce another Freestyle Record, I
find myself wanting to step into that water again. For old times sake.
The new music seems to lack the fundamentals of a hit, which I've always
believed to be the combination of a well produced track and vocal. So
out of pure curiosity and a need for fun, I'm offering the following. I
will personally produce a pure freestyle track (New
School or Old School) for any artist that wishes to work with me. For a
track Produced, Vocals recorded, Mix and even Edits by me. I'll charge
the fee of $1,250.” Contact
Carlos at

for more
information, and good
luck!
