Recently charted by Renaissance Man on Resident Advisor, the latest release from Scion A/V pairs Detroit rock band The Dirtbombs with underground Detroit techno legend & Ford Motors employee Omar-S. The result is steeped in Detroit dance music history, as the original track "Sharevari" by A Number of Names evolved from the legendary Charivari parties that began attracting a cult following in 1980 and was a tribute to Detroit's high school party scene. This rework feels like a fitting tribute, filtered through the lens of two other Detroit [...]
On their debut album Ultraglide in Black , The Dirtbombs covered the funk and soul tracks that bandleader Mick Collins grew up with. Nearly ten years later, the group will release Party Store, which features a shift in focus towards Detroit techno from the 802s and early 902s. Below, we have the first single from Party Store , which is a cover of A Number Of Names ' "Sharevari" . [...]
You gotta love The Dirtbombs . Seriously, you do. Otherwise, you should probably leave right now. The lords and lady of Detroit garage have recorded a somewhat unlikely love letter to the city they call home. Party Store (get it February 1st from In The Red ) finds the primal quintet having their way with Detroit's "other" influential music scene, techno of the 80's and early 90's. Originals by Carl Craig, A Number Of Names and Inner City and treated with love, but make no mistake, [...]

Reaching back to some classics from New Yorks Cutting Records , here are a few timeless cuts from one of electronic music's greatest producers... Hashim . Gnaw on this old but savory biscuit - then munch on some tasty variations of the original.

I had initially conceptualized this post as a means to reveal that both Black Shag and myself must be Ray Caviano's illegitimate children due to our shared reputations as scoundrel's. Now of course we draw the line long before ripping anyone off least of all Jimmy Ross. Leaving Jimmy stranded and broke in New York City only to be deported seems just a little extreme. Oddly enough the many negative comments about Caviano accrued on the last Beat Electric RFC post have now mysteriously disappeared leaving his [...]
So my buddy Kendra sent me this piece of Youtube amazing-ness the other day, it's electro/proto-Detroit techno one hit wonder Sharevari by A Number Of Names on a dance music television show. Watching the people in it going absolutely apeshit, and it being 1982 kind of begs the question: What if Techno, and not Hip-Hop, had taken off as the mainstream urban music of choice? [...]
Спасибо эксцентричному поведению на международной арене российских политиков, предпринимателе й и туристов – наша страна представляется большинству европейцев диким и экзотическим местом. Естественно, многие деятели шоу-бизнеса спекулируют на этом стереотипе, пытаясь привлечь к себе внимание. Так, например, английский гуру андреграундного хип-хопа DJ Vadim заявляет, что он ди-джей из России – хотя уехал из страны в Великобританию еще до достижения сознательного возраста, да и по-русски двух слов связать не может. Ну а по-настоящему преуспел в деле создания мистификаций на тему славянских корней француз Pascal Abrez, взявший псевдоним Vitalic и пару лет поддерживающий легенду, мол, он родом с Украины, [...]
I was planning on doing a post about the new Hot Chip album but seeing as every blogger and his dog are writing about it I'll give it a miss. I was however very enthused when I heard that a classic compilation from the early Noughties was getting a timely re-release. Disco Not Disco was released by the now defunct Strut label and is a compilation of classic underground gems from the Post Punk, Electro and Industrial scenes. It includes classic tracks such as Delta 5 - Mind Your Own Business, [...]
Oh, choice find from the eighties here, my friends. " Shari Vari " by a Number of Names. There's a whole lot to love about this track. For one, it's a celebration of the naked materialism of the 80's. I count four different brand names used in this song. Probably about 4 times as many as you'd hear in a radio jingle, let alone a dance track. From what I've read about A Number of Names, this was two guys from Detroit. But, damn, they really nailed [...]

The Dirtbombs Cover Shari Vari
Heard about this cover of A Number Of Names' Shari Vari a couple of weeks ago. Trepidation and plain fear set in. Especially as it transpired that The Dirtbombs have a whole album out of garage takes on Detroit classics . The stench of gimmick was overpowering. But this morning I decided to hunt it out. What was waiting for me was a rather faithful cover, adding a bit of scratchy guitar but not taking much away. Frankly, it could have been a [...]

Detroit klassiekers als garage rock
Techno naar klassiek is al een aantal keer uitgevoerd. Nu kunnen we daar techno naar rock aan toe voegen. De Detroitse band The Dirtbombs komt februari 2011 met een album vol Detroit-klassiekers in een garagerock jasje. Vooruitlopend daarop alvast de eerste cover van Sharevari (origineel van A Number Of Names): Afgaande op deze eerste cover verwacht ik van het album niet van m'n stoel te zullen vallen. Live moet dit echter een leuk feestje worden. Het album heet Party Store en krijgt de volgende tracklist: 1. Cosmic [...]

Shari Vari Redux
Just noticed that The Beastie Boys posted this video last night (check Napoleon Dynamite at 2.59)... And seeing that my post about A Number Of Names' Shari Vari (or Sharevari or Sharivari) is still getting hits to this day , I've decided to repost the mp3. To put it simply, this proto-techno track is one of the greatest records ever made. [...]

Remembering The Detroit "Scene" [Videodrone]
A few days ago, my colleague Andy Kellman directed me to a handful of YouTube clips from The Scene , Detroit's answer to Soul Train . The above video features the Funkateers, a pop-locking troupe from the show, choreographed to Tom Tom Club's "Wordy Rappinghood." It's pretty great stuff, not least because the faded video making everything green, blue, and orange actually enhances the experience by situating it as otherworldly, from another time. Below the cut, a few other gems from this after-school series. Teenagers [...]
The Scene; A Number of Names
The Scene was a television show aired in Detroit on WGPR, the first black-owned TV station in America. From 1975 to 1987 the show served as black culture's reinvention of the "dance show" format - and looking back on these amazing tapes now it hurts to understand why it remained a purely local phenomenon. While white America was up to god knows what on American Bandstand aired Saturday mornings across America, The Scene was publicizing and helping give birth to Detroit Techno, a moment in American music that was so brililantly cross-pollinated, strange and compelling that [...]

Hyped up?
So apparently my shit is on the Hype Machine now. Um, thanks guys? I guess this is supposed to mean I made it in blogworld? I'm not really sure what to make of it, but now part of me feels like I should start being super responsible free promo guy or something...which is a pretty daunting thought. If I stopped picking songs apart or denying my inner hater, I'd definately be at a loss. So, I guess to compromise, I won't be blatantly irresponsible and do something like post an mp3 and saying it sucks point blank. I think I [...]
