No summary of New York City’s dance music history would be complete without Nicky Siano. As the owner and resident DJ at The Gallery, Nicky was electrified by a visit to The Loft and became hooked on New York’s emerging club culture of the 70s. As a DJ, Nicky Siano was not only one of the first to understand which tracks gave the right vibe, but also how to mix them together. He also pioneered DJ-ing techniques such as beatmatching, EQ-ing, using three turntables etc, creating the proto-disco sound via his preferred funky soul and R&B records. Leading the way for a host of legendary figures like Larry Levan and Frankie Knuckles, or Grace Jones, and Loleatta Holloway, he laid down the blueprint for iconic New York clubs like The Garage and Studio 54. But Nicky wasn’t just confined to the club, and in 1977 he teamed up with Arthur Russell in the studio as Dinosaur, for one of his earliest records Kiss Me Again. After a hiatus, Siano came back to DJ-ing at Body and Soul for Larry Levan’s birthday celebrations in 1998, and now joins the dots between the hedonistic abandon of New York’s original dance culture, and today’s rave generation. His documentary film, Love Is the Message: A Night at the Gallery 1977 features a ton of great vintage footage and interviews.

7 Figure Secrets

Hola peoples, Here is the lowdown... Back in February of 2007, Mike Filsaime held a secret Private Workshop at an undisclosed location. Over 100 people paid $5000 for the Workshop. He then took those DVD's (Which now sell for $1297) and sold it out in record fashion in under 7 days to 2500 people. Since then... over 3000 people have paid for that information. The success stories that followed have changed the face of Internet Marketing. (Filsaime, along with his 37 Staff Members, will do $10,000,000 this year in sales and is credited with showing other marketers how to grow a 7 figure Business.) SO what?! Ok so this is why I am even talking about this at all. A) I like Mike and the information he provides for what I am up to in life. B) Mike hired an Internet Marketing Expert and Copywriter (That also attended the event.) Paid this "TOP GUN" $25,000 to watch all 16 DVD's of "The 7 Figure Code" and condense it into a Masterpiece... THE RESULT... An 85 Page re...
