[I]t's two for Tuesday on this episode of M&W. This month, we've got DJs E-man and Doc Link with an energetic two-hour back-to-back mix from their Liberate Sessions show on Cyberjamz.
I first met Eric "E-man" Clark on his first trip to Manila in 2004, when he came with Jojo Flores and was hosted by Groove Nation's Edge Pamute. The hot Jon Cutler track "It's Yours", featuring E-man's poetic lyrics that came out a few years earlier, was still burning up the dance-floors around the globe and getting featured on numerous mixes and compilations. It was right around then that I first heard his collaboration with Markus Enochson "Musical Prayer" on Francois K's CD Deep & Sexy Vol.1 (Wave).
It was then that I also learned about E-man's Bang The Party, the hugely successful event series that lasted 6 years held in various venues around Manhattan and Brooklyn: a party having the historical significance of Body & Soul, 718 Sessions, Ain't Nothing But A House Party, and other such iconic New York City house music gatherings. There's even a BTP documentary that we wish we could get our hands on (see the trailer).
I met E-man again in 2005 when he accepted the "Best DJ - International" Award for Jojo Flores at the Choice Awards 4.0 (Jojo was abroad performing at the time).

Since then, E-man has hooked up the Chicago DJ and producer Doc Link to launch the Liberate record label, a space for them "to create original music, unfettered by the confines of the traditional record industry protocol." The duo also tours the world and hosts a weekly internet radio show by the same name. We hope to have them visit Manila soon bringing with them their message of freedom.
