    Hello all

    For many years I have been a Snowboy fan, from his heavy afro-cuban jazz
    recordings with his group The Latin Section to visiting his Hi Hat and Deep
    Funk sessions during a visit to London in 1995, to his Hi Hat compilations
    unearthing future jazz dance classics until then only released on CD, to his
    newsletters and writings in Big Daddy and Grand Slam magazines. So it was
    good to finally catch up with the man to find out what he's getting up to
    and hear his views on things like DJs playing CDs and using the mic. With
    his injured wrist on the mend, Snowboy has lots of great recording projects
    in the pipeline. He has now signed to Chilli Funk who will be releasing a
    new Snowboy & the Latin Section album next year, followed by Seiji remixing
    the entire album! A collaboration with Seiji on a broken beat remake of a
    jazz dance classic (can't say quite yet) is also in the works. Then there'll
    be a latin funk album for Kenny Dope and Keb Darge's Kay Dee imprint. And
    right now a more house-oriented 12" "It's About Time" with Bob Jones and the
    Interns is available through Chilli Funk. Let's hope the wrist survives all
    this activity!

    Trainspotters' Corner returned last week linking the bass and feel of the
    great jazzy cut "Dreams" from Ty's incredible new "Upwards" album, with the
    track "Science Fiction" from one of my favourite ever releases, Nobukazu
    Takemura's 1994 "Child's View" album. If you haven't heard it, don't expect
    his recent releases to give you much of an idea, as he's gone more
    experimental since then.

    If you're reading this newsletter in time, think about dropping into
    Honkytonks for Open Sesame tonight. We've got a special visitor from Perth,
    DJ PMI, gracing the decks for a soulful beats session with Kano and myself.

    And don't miss tomorrow's show which will feature part 1 of the Stylin focus
    on Philly, with legendary DJ and producer Jazzy Jeff dropping into the show
    for a chat and live mix with his vocal partners Pauly Yamz and V. Part 2
    comes next week with the Roots.

    until then
    Ennio Styles
