[lifeboogie Phil Asher/ Restless Soul tribute mixtape]

This week we’re focusing our spotlight on a hero of mine that I’ve been following since before I knew I was following him. A man with numerous aliases Restless Soul, Electric Soul, Modaji, Focus, Phoojun, Plash, Woolfe, Restless Soul Fun Band to name a few. Also, behind numerous productions, remixes a staple and dearly loved selector, producer out of the UK deep House, Broken Beat, UK Soul & Hip Hop scenes, also greatly respected globally, Phil Asher! Phil, sadly, just passed January 22 and I put together this tribute mixtape for my recently launched lifeboogie Vision venture and thought it would be great to share the music with my CKCU family! Wasn’t enough time to fit everything into the on air broadcast so there’s some extra content on demand. Kicking things off with something from one of my favourite Phil Asher “Restless Soul” productions & collaboration with Nathan Haines album “Sound Travels”, which we’ll be sampling from quite a bit throughout the show. There's a tribute page you can check out to see how big an influence Phil's been over the years. https://www.facebook.com/philashertribute Here's also an article that could be worth a glance: https://5mag.net/news/phil-asher-producer-dj-genius/ Happy listening!

I mean... Earth is the Place is an Undergrove/Mercury Gem, but I had no idea how many more 💎jewels💎 adorn Asher's crown. Solid Gold bar-after-bar of the Sounds Travels LP, luxuriant rubies by Electric Soul, Focus, Bah Samba - Here Come Some Fun Ones! 👊🏾Much obliged for revealing the righteously radiant revelations👊🏾

It seems I typed too soon... Praise Jah for On Demand Content, otherwise I would never have heard “Schoolin’”. I’ve already replayed that incredible 15 minute portion 3 times (and woulda bust a Bitcoin nut had it been available on Discogs). Thanks V Much for Sharing - You def made an impression on Phil’s behalf
