Description
MOTOWN ON MONDAYSIt's only Monday if you treat it like one.
The music genre known as Motown ranks among the great American artforms. By mashing together the spirit-soothing weight of soul with the viral catchiness of pop, the soulful sounds that came out of mid-century Detroit have aged like Bordeaux. Motown on Mondays is a weekly event that rollicks in clubs in cities across the nation. The talented DJs behind the Monday night party mix the superb source material in compositions that have a bassy modern pulse--weaving modern and classic influences that might, for example, set Mos Def's storytelling verses from Ms. Fat Booty smack next to some next-level wailing from Diana Ross.
