I like Charles, he can throw down a mean set. I saw him spin outside amongst the palm trees at Bay Cafe several weeks ago but I reeaaaalllly miss seeing him spin those more intimate sets at a bar he used to own in Baltimore named "Shorty's."
He's been spinning his own brand of funky-house/disco-house since the early 90's and can pretty much mix together anything he wants while making it sound groovy as hell.

For those who may not know:
BIOGRAPHY:
Legendary for his role in the birth of the electronic music scene in the Baltimore/Washington DC area, Charles Feelgood has built a solid reputation as a DJ in the international dance music community through his ingenious remix skills and dynamic brand of funky disco house.
Cultivating a fascination with music since childhood, Charles Fields grew up listening to Motown, disco and funk, genres that heavily influenced his personal style as an artist.
"I used to stay up late listening to my dad play records and decided that was what I wanted to do," says Feelgood. His first foray into the world of dance music was in the late '80s, throwing small-scale parties under the name "House of Fields".
An integral part of the Baltimore/DC style since day one, Feelgood is often credited with putting the scene on the house music map. In 1992 he joined forces with fellow DJ Scott Henry to launch Fever, a club event that introduced the sounds of electronic music to his hometown. The first event of its kind in that region, the night exploded in popularity almost immediately, attracting upwards of 25,000 people. Featuring such top-notch, internationally renowned talent as Paul Van Dyk and Carl Cox, the biweekly event ran through May 2001.
Maintaining a seven-year residency at Fever helped springboard Feelgood's eminently danceable brand of bangin' hard house to widespread exposure across the East Coast. His popularity quickly bloomed thanks in part to his legendary series of mixed tapes, "Time to Get Ill." He soon developed a club-heavy touring schedule that regularly took him to famed clubs such as Sound Factory, Spundae, Shampoo, and Cro Bar, along with numerous other venues on the West Coast, Canada, Europe, Asia and South America.
In 1993, Feelgood launched his own label, Charm City Recordings, to create an outlet for his original material. His releases on the label found moderate success, but ultimately, launching his own label proved to be a crucial stepping stone for exposing his material to more famous imprints.
Following a successful mixed CD release in 2000 on Warner Bros. offshoot F-111, Feelgood joined forces with North America's premier electronic music label in 2001 to release the well-received "Can You Feel It," followed later that year by an installment in the djmixed.com series.
According to Feelgood, the secret to a great mix CD is recreating the club experience on vinyl. But despite the immense popularity and critical acclaim his mixed CD's have received, he still prefers to produce original records for the artistic freedom it allows.
Constantly in demand all over the world for his ability to light up dance floors with his disco-flavored sets of funk-drenched house, Feelgood has received numerous accolades in his thirteen-year career. These include being named Baltimore's Best DJ, and being included in the top 40 of BPM Magazine's 2002 top 50 DJ list.
Acclaimed for his ability to seamlessly transition between club and rave atmospheres, Feelgood notes "I definitely try and take the listeners on a musical journey - I like to start out slow and funky and push for a harder ending, a continuous rise."
"I'm far from a purist," he adds. "I incorporate many styles into a single set. I play everything from disco-influenced house to a capella tracks and tech house, and I especially love bootlegs."
Looking to expand more into the realm of production, Feelgood has retreated into the cut hut studios to concentrate full force on producing original material. Look for a slew of released in 2002, with his highly anticipated full-length studio album to be released in summer 2004. Charles next mix album "Across America" will be in stores May 05, 2003 on the 611/System Recordings Imprint.
The consummated dance floor rocker, Feelgood sums up his musical mission in one sentence: "I just want the name implies, to make people have a good time and go home with a great feeling."
