Words by H.L.III sent to Qool DJ Marv in a message: Brother Marv...lovin' what the presence of your music and your vibe brings to the world for some years now...I've had the pleasure of revisiting the classics that I 'met' you through in the House of Nubian days...comin' thru the city with the fellas to chill, scarf some Falafels from Mamoun's, chill in the village, just vibe in the cosmic energy of the city...it was with great pleasure I found your mixes on Podomatic and most especially #22...first tape I bought by you...I'm a deeply eclectic music lover but your tapes opened up a world of music I wasn't even aware of at the age of 22 and changed my world forever when I bought #24 - Dark and Lovely, still, in my humble opinion,one of the finest mixes of music you or any DJ has ever done...I've said all of this in the hopes that you will release that mix for my enjoyment and that of others who may have the opportunity to experience, be touched, be moved, and forever changed by that dark, delicious, spiritual mix of music from one of the most creative time periods of electronically produced music that you so deftly wove into an atmosphere of transcendental experience...I love that you have gotten recognition from so many from such varied geographies, interests, and cultures....you truly are an Artisan DJ and I look forward to enjoying your musical tapestries for years to come....definitely will look for you next time I'm up top... Peace, Blessings, & Love to You and Your Family... (thank you H.L.III) Photo by http://saragiusti.tumblr.com/
