A Word From Dan
This week starts off on a very sad note. Hearing about the Columbia space shuttle tragedy early this weekend saddened our hearts and shattered our spirits.
We were debating whether we should broadcast that day or go off the air to commemorate the tragedy. It was Henry "Rhythm Section" Maldonado`s words that echoed in my head from way back in September 2001, following the tragic events of September 11th, when Downshift first got on the air. "Music is healing, it gives us hope and fills our hearts with joy. We must go on."
And so we did. Our hearts go out to the families and close friends of the crew that lost their lives in the space shuttle Columbia. May they rest in peace.
This week is super busy with more new shows, more guests and even more Downshift parties.
Don`t forget our premiere Kinky party at Novecento this Wednesday. I`m really excited about this one. I`ve always been a big fan of Jeremias Santiago. Although i check him regularly every week on his DSR show, there`s nothing like seeing the man play live in a club! Lets not forget about the jazzy sounds of Doug G and the dirty/afro/tribal style of Omar Herrera.
I`ll be there and so will the cameras. Now you know after all that you can`t resist the cheap price tag-FREE.
Before I go, thanks for all the emails, especially Kevin Seaman from Suffolk County, Isabel Gustav, Patrick Koppel, Rafael, Ruth Birenbaum from Jerusalem, Mike Chen and Ziggy.
Take care and be safe,
Dan Bino.

His first LP, "My True Colors", was declared "Essential" by Billboard Magazine while Muzik described it as "Sheer unadulterated pleasure."
Following the success of the album led Disciple to tour abroad. Disciple has played in Barcelona, Oslo, Tel Aviv, Singapore, Ibiza's mega-club Pacha, Belfast, Madrid, and UK's most notorious Ministry of Sound, among plenty other countries.
Other credentials Disciple holds to himself are 'Here Comes The Morning' a collaborative writing he was involved with, which was featured in Robert De Nero's "The Score", plus countless remix works done for Jim Shaft Ryan, Love Tattoos and Samantha Mumbas just to name a few.
