MaRahjé In inkDa Delics In Each Era & Birthing A Woman in The 10sGlasses are gracefully bumping heads as we drink the night away in memory lane of the 10s decade. In this episode I take you all on a trip to my very personal transitions and introduction to each Delic (musical) stages/ phases of my life. Going through rough patches in the beginning of an game changing decade for me wasn't easy, but thanks to music, the ride was a sweet and bitter trip to a new decade. Hitting hard patches in life with rock to rap; dazzling from disco to funk, pitching from soul to R&B, rolling a dice from...

Chaka Delic's World of MusicBreath of LifeFinally, my first mix of 2016! Quite delighted with the way this one came together but you can be the judge of whether it floats your boat or not. Sprinkles of atmosphere, inspiration, sophistication and danceable beats is the loose description I'd give of this.The song selections are as follows:1. Deep' Hole "Gone too Soon"2. Exte C "Story Teller" (Broken Biza Original Mix)3. Dzo, Deej LebotoniQ "About Music"4. Reel Skaps, Man D.O "Crazy Love" (DeMontuh Remix)5. Louis Lunch, Mandy Voca "Good Girl" (Calvin Fallo Remix)6...

Chaka Delic's World of MusicReturn of the FutureFuture beats that progress from inspirational, dreamy and feel good to harder, rawer type sounds.

Chaka Delic's World of MusicLift OffHappy new year all! Hope this mix finds you well. Here, you have another of the themes in Chaka Delic's "world of music." Not quite sure how to describe the sounds here, but if forced to would say that there are sprinkles of disco, "nu-disco," "neo-soul," a smidgen of techno leaning sounds. Anyhow, hope you all enjoy. More to come from me this year for sure!

Chaka Delic's World of MusicWelcome AboardBack to the old school and done the old school way (All vinyl, two turntables and a mixer). This mix showcases a different aspect of the sounds I like - soul and a bit of disco funk. It's more about the journey and selection here; not claiming to break the ultra rare and elusive, although you certainly won't find a couple of these easily and/or without paying good money for it. :)The mix is roughly the set I played for the Beat Swap Meet in Los Angeles on September 15, 2013; roughly because I recorded this after and not...

Chaka Delic's World of MusicThe Bitter, the SweetFancy new mix I whipped up this past Mother's Day weekend. I think mum would have enjoyed the sweet aspect of this more than the bitter. Nevertheless, she would have delighted in it all. RIP!This one is a journey from the sweet to the bitter, although, truth be told, even the bitter is kind of sweet. Broken beat, house, latin flair, bass heavy sounds -- all in here. Shokazulu, Rima, Jazztronik and more in the cut. Enjoy!

Chaka Delic's World of MusicMagicI was motivated to do this by the Tatham, Mensah, Lord & Ranks release, the fact that it's been a while since I've made a mix, and a rainy day in Los Angeles, This was randomly put together, i.e. no predetermined concept or order. Hope you enjoy it as much as I did making the mix. Yes, the second song is from the Tatham, Mensah, Lord & Ranks release -- "Mind Skies." Get that album if you know what's good for your health!! :)

Chaka Delic's World of MusicChampionThe title is a tribute to champions; a doff of the hat to legacy builders and those who leave awe and inspiration for us both in the here and now and after they've left this earth. It takes grit, steel, stamina, resolve, and focus to be a true champion. This week, I'm reminded of that through Serena Williams, Roger Federer and Anderson Silva, but the concept extends far beyond sports and even into the realm of music. Salute!

Chaka Delic's World of MusicWasabiOkay ladies and gents, this mix is about travelling into the realm of the hardcore. It is definitely not everyone's cup of tea but I am compelled to do it as I'm interested in airing out the full range sounds that are me. So, this is another in the series of peeling the onion, so to speak. :)Turn it up and feel the bass.Playlist as follows:1. Yellowtail "7 Monks of Kilimanjaro"2. Ceramic "Bodyshock" (Ceramic mix)3.

Chaka Delic's World of MusicIntrigueThe long awaited slow-speed. Pleased to drop some hip hop type joints here. Anyhow, the goal here was simply to drop some joints I'm feeling regardless of whether they are recent or not. As a parting comment, much respect to everybody that does THEIR thing to the fullest. It's not all about ONE type of music 100% of the time.This time, I'm including a playlist because people like my mate, Black Monk, need to be known about AND it's only fair that I spread the word about these artists. In the past I've not done one...

Chaka Delic's World of MusicDepth ChargeBeen away for a while; thinking, reflecting, reading, playing futbol like my life depends on it (it actually heavily does), making silent moves to strengthen all aspects of myself. Anyway, I felt that it was about time I communicated what's going on in my musical corner of the world (for those that care and happen to be listening). You'll hear bits of afro-house, bits of Cajmere (Karizma & Spen flip of Brighter Days), DJ Micks, Osunlade and other lesser (or hardly known) gems (always got to keep these in the portfolio). Hope you enjoy this as much as I did making...

Chaka Delic's World of MusicElationLadies and gents, happy new year! A belated offering from me, as I meant to release this mix at the end of 2010. More vocals in this one than is normally the case with me, but vocals makes the ladies ... well, dare i say? :) I will say though that those fascinated by 007 (James Bond) should delight in the very last song, an Andre Lodemann twist up of Joey Negro's twist up of a Bond theme song (which Negro entitles "Another World" under the guise of Akabu), which I think was taken from the countdown in Moonraker, though I'll have to verify...

Chaka Delic's World of MusicAfro-House WondersEvery mix now seems to have its story, it's purpose. The tale here is simple -- afro-house twinkles to get you bobbin' and weavin'! I ran away from the lions and cheetahs in the serengeti plains barely escaping with my life to bring you these afro-house treasures. And for the beats that the lions and cheetahs were able to pry away from me, I managed to find supplements right here in the U.S./Canada from the likes of Trinidadian Deep and the mysterious Agev Munsen.In terms of artwork, my mate Joe (Djembe) did the piece.

Chaka Delic's World of MusicExcursions in Bruk (The Future Ain't The Same)I had been meaning to make a purely broken beat mix for a while now and finally got around to it. I didn't want to make it about "classics" necessarily, but I wanted to flex the side of the music that is clever, melodic, moody, under-appreciated and/or not that well-known (the songs and not necessarily the artists), and, yes, in parts danceable. So, here it is. You're going to hear some Domu, Aybee (Misha's Matrix), Altered Natives (remix of Greymatter's "Eu Fumo"), Agent K, Jonny Miller and more. Big ups to all the producers that live, breathe and make...

Chaka Delic's World of MusicReal Talk: Volume 1This one is a one take, no edits, no mastering mix. Conceptually, the idea was to keep things kind of groovy and sophisticated. At the same time, I wanted to reach for that part of my repertoire of sound that I hardly showcase. I'm quite pleased with how it turned out in the end, especially because the sound defies easy categorization or classification. I hope you enjoy it as much as I do. :)

Chaka Delic's World of MusicChaka @ Tighten Up (March 17, 2010)It's taken a while to post this, but this was a set I played @ Tighten Up shortly before the WMC in Miami. It contains the signature hit "Superman" by Black Coffee, among other tunes. If you're sick of that tune by now, remember that I did this mix back in March! And, for the record, I still love this song. Anyhow, plenty of other tunes to be just as excited about -- from Ron Trent to Karizma. Enjoy!

Chaka Delic's World of Music2010 World Cup Mix: GOOOOAAAAAALLLLLL!!! (July 2, 2010)I reALLY wanted to lay down a World Cup Mix, being the football fanatic that I am. Given that the end of the Cup is rapidly approaching, I wanted to engage in the spirit of things by releasing this mix now rather than later. That said, understand that I've sacrificed perfection (not that I ever could have achieved that) in place of getting this mix out immediately while we are still gripped with World Cup fever. The mix features football commentary from the 1970 World Cup final in Mexico, which Brazil won. The choice to use that commentary is based on...

It's early, so the idea is to raise the temperature ever so slightly; before the twinkle toe dancing and baby powder action begins. It's about sophistication! :) If you see me and like this mix, ask me for the cd version, which is way cleaner than the upload, for some bizarre reason, and is wav. format. Anyway, enjoy and Merry Christmas!
