The Babel Orchestra The weekly froth! A weekly take on six tracks, most of which have recently popped up somewhere in the blogosphere. Bit of a mixed bag with a slight leaning towards house, disco, and remixes, but generally just anything that for some reason tickled the writer's fancy. Track of the week: 'Babelicious' by The Babel Orchestra This one sure rolls through nicely I would say. It's a completely instrumental track that starts with a simple beat. Obviously, that is expanded upon as the song progresses. The [...]

Having returned from Splendour in a rather shady state I don't feel very confident about writing any kind of coherent post. This Los Charly's Orchestra record is fuckin great - no bullshit, just top quality live disco business made by two legends in the UK. The B2 seriously does it for me with funky-wunky bass and nice bright horns. Awesome writing, awesome performance, top notch 12". Los Charly's Orchestra - Music For The Soul [ buy ] Big love for this Beat Broker edit of Jerry Williams on [...]
I have been waiting for a new 40 Thieves single for what feels like a long goddamn time. And now, finally they unveil their latest 103 with 2 absolute crackers. It's somewhere in the mail system making it's way towards me right now, but until then ill be left with some low rez mp32s and clips like the rest of us. Fingers crossed it's here for Sugar tonight with Al Kent! If you don't wanna miss out get to Juno and secure yourself a copy. Shit won't last! [...]

BOOOOOOOOOOOM!!!!!!! ... is pretty much the only way to describe the excitement I'm feeling right now. The day is FINALLY here! Riviera's 40 Thieves is dropping March 5th 2011 on Kinetika Records and the previews are up. After a tough 2010, Riviera is shaking it off and starting 2011 with an absolutely proper release. 40 Thieves is one of tracks that you can tell every part was tended to with great care.. it really shows. Now as for the remixes, Torro Torro has perhaps outdone themselves. Their drums are absolutely enormous, and [...]

Le contenu et la mise en forme de l'article sont libres, nous leur demandons simplement à la fin de l'article de nous présenter une de leur oeuvre ainsi qu'une série de liens pour les retrouver sur la toile. Pour cette première je laisse la parole à Turbotito. GO ! Scott Walker - Angels of Ashes [...]

Omigod, you just have to hear this new Bob Dylan cover. You know that folksy ballad, "All Along the Watchtower"? Well some afro-headscarf weirdnik named Jimi rocked it so hard that… What's that? You've already heard it? You say it tops every single list of the best Dylan covers that has ever been made with absolutely no exceptions so don't bother looking to try to prove me wrong? Ah. Well,

Thanks to everyone that has dropped in and shared their music, comments, and friendship this past year. Here are some of the songs that are either long time favorites or new favorites for me; gave me some comfort this past year. P.tones Plaid 1 : Dominatrix – The Dominatrix Sleeps Tonight (don lowed) P.tones Plaid 2 : Woolfy – Odyssey (don lowed) P.tones Plaid 3 : Living Legends – After Hours (Extended Euromix) (don lowed) [...]

Well here it is, uncharacteristically early (for this blog) and simultaneously fashionably late. I won't go into some long essay that summarizes what I think of this (my pissy previous post took care of the most inarticulate aspects of that), so I'll leave you with my typical mitigating statements. There are still a bunch of albums I want (and need) to hear that could have very well made this list (Dam Funk anyone?)…therefore comments are appreciated even more than normal on this post. Don't be bashful! Let's go. Rob's Favorite [...]

Sorry folks have had a busy few days. Will race through this for the sake of getting it done. All this music is awesome. Including this Disconet remix of a golden Hamilton Bohannon tune which many may recognise as being manically reworked in Oizo's Gay Dentists. Funky stuff. As I've said before, the most recent Disconet greatest hits releases have been right on the money - there's an amazing Imagination megamix sort of thing on this one too. Bohannon - Let's Start the Dance (Disconet Remix) [ buy ] [...]

Well deserving of Picadilly 's disco record of the week, this is an absolute gem of a remix by Brennan Green of a coolies 40 Thieves tune originally released on Permanent Vacation . This one grooves supremely. It has sex with the hottest women. It sets fire to even the dampest brick wall. It oozes cool as dense as dark matter. And so on. Qzen 's smooth vocals perfectly match the rich hearty bass and slightly acidic (pH 8.5) synth line. Also my fave of the week. Yumsies! Out on Brennan's own [...]

I thought it was about time I joined the 21st century and added the option of subscribing to the monthly mix as a podcast, something I've been meaning to do for a while. So, if you want, click here and you can have it sent to you automatically via whatever you prefer to use for that kind of thing (in most cases, iTunes). If you'd rather download it the old fashioned way, you can do that too. In line with this new paradigm, I have formally renamed the monthly mix to Urlaubshits Radio, though you probably shouldn't expect [...]

It's not every day that you stumble across music gold in the bargain bin of a record store but every once and a while you discover something that just can't be topped. Many moons ago i purchased Chromeo's debut LP for a mere .99 cents, totally unaware of the love that would prevail, i also curiously picked up another album for the same price simply titled ' Action Figure Party ' wrapped in poorly printed sleeve art but, to my surprise, it turned out to be 12 tracks of some the most amazing jazz fusion. Action Figure Party [...]
