Telefox goes downtown 1981

Greetings!

I was going to kick off the posts with a brief history of me and who I am and the more I thought about it, the more contrived it all became. Long story short, my name is Eric, on the internet better known as Telefox (if you'd like to know why just ask). I am a music obsessive (as well as a hundred tangents from candy to movies to cults as you will see). I've been collecting records for over 30 years, records of all types. I've had just about every type of job you can have in the club and nightlife world, through scene after countless scene, from DJ to bartender to coat check to blah blah blah....Blogspot will officially be the 5th home and incarnation of my everchanging journal, the Cotton Candy Farm. It has existed in one form or another since 1998, and doesnt have any clear cut direction. There is alot of disco for sure. If you are interested in older links, just ask me as well, I'll point you in the direction of my past if you are so inclined.

To kick off the new page, I've posted my latest mix for y'all to download / stream / absorb. It's called "Telefox goes downtown 1981", and is a mix of post-disco and proto-house, heavily influenced by Larry, Tony & Shep. I'm no technical wizard, its all about the vibe for me. Add in a few effects and tweaks and there you have it. Please feel free to download and share and link me and whore me, just give me the credit ya dig? Also be on the lookout for Volume II of this mix coming very soon. I hope you enjoy! Link to download, and tracklisting below;
