Columbia Nights - Stormy Weather
"Record Breakin' Music is proud to introduce a new addition to our family, COLUMBIA NIGHTS. In 2011 they did a soft release of their cover of Little Dragon's "Stormy Weather". As we prepare to release their debut album we wanted to reacquaint you with this lovely reinterpretation.
Drawing from soul, hip-hop, R&B, electronica, and jazz, Columbia Nights hopes to add to the conversation by offering a fresh take on a timeless tradition. Co-producers John E Daise and Hayling Price made their rounds in Philadelphia playing the city's trademark blend of neo-soul, and vocalist Sarai Abdul-Malik met the pair midway through her studies at Howard University's Jazz Department. Joined by their love of vinyl, laughter and thai iced tea, the Washington, D.C. based trio creates a unique sound rooted in balance; their sounds represent a synthesis of the analog and the digital, the bright and the dark, the warm and the wintry."

Funk Sanctum Radio Now Limits Listeners
Sadly today Funk Sanctum Radio has now been reset to "zero" ad-free listeners which means that there is no more free ride. You must sign up for a live365.com account to receive the Funk Sanctum listening adventure 24/7 online and on your smart devices.
I will open Funk Sanctum Radio when listening hours go down. This seems backwards; however, Funk Sanctum is classified as a "small" pro station whereby I can adjust the amount of free listeners from anywhere from 0 to 100. As a result, some listeners have been listening 24/7 for the past few months. This is a great thing on the one hand because someone is enjoying my selections; however, now I am dangerously close to going over my allotted monthly 1200 hours and will then incur more charges on top of my existing fees. This decision breaks my heart; however, my station is a "free" service to you, and I have not budgeted an increase.
