ISO50 Covers Series 2010: Vol.2

ISO50 Covers Series 2010: Vol.2 Last week I shared with you the start of a 4 [maybe more?] part series of covers that some of my friends did that was free to download here . Here is volume 2: Calmer covers Bob James : I think when I asked Calmer to cover the Taxi theme song he thought I was joking but I actually wasn't I always play this song when I DJ late nights. He does a great hazy looped cover which shows off his drumming skills and that was what I was [...]

Shamboozie

Shamboozie Rakim is easily one of my fave MC's ever. For his return to hip hop in 1997, Rakim released The 18th Letter , his first solo album. It wasn't groundbreaking, but it was good overall with some tightly produced tracks by some of the best ( Clark Kent , Premier ). 'Guess Who's Back' is definitely one of the best tracks off the LP. Rakim - Guess Who's Back And check out the sample from Bob James [...]

Monday Drenched

Monday Drenched It's dreary and grey lately in Winnie's part of the world. Combine that with Monday and... well... meh . Best thing to do is grab a hot drink and hunker down with the right bunch of tunes. Here's a classic rainy Monday song: Bob James - You're As Right As Rain It's the perfect backdrop to get you through today. And if you listen carefully, you should be able to pick out that it was sampled for this: Röyksopp - Eple

Peter Piper / Take Me To The Mardi Gras

Peter Piper / Take Me To The Mardi Gras Show of hands: who knows the genesis of the bell & percussion groove of Run-DMC's "Peter Piper"? I stumbled on it tonight. I was listening to Afrika Bambaata's radio show on Sirius Backspin on the way home from work today. He was playing short clips of some of his favorites from back in the day. He played a minute or so of "Nautilus" by Bob James. Nice funky, jazzy little groove. I went on to Blip.fm to track it down. Didn't find it, but I did see "Take Me To The Mardis Gras". [...]

Playlist de la série Breaking Bad

Playlist de la série Breaking Bad Breaking Bad , c'est ma série télé préférée du moment. C'est aussi une série qui a tout pour devenir culte et qui l'est déjà pour bon nombre de gens il me semble. Tous les ingrédients sont là : un scénario dingue, des acteurs fantastiques, un décor somptueux, une réalisation cinématesque (ça se dit ?) et une bande-son très inspirée. Walter White est un père de familles sans histoires, bedonnant, moustachu, qui cumule deux boulots, l'un dans un lycée d' Albuquerque au Nouveau-Mexique et l'autre dans un "car-wash", une petite société de lavage de voitures. Il a une [...]

Bob James - Spunky

Bob James - Spunky Beautifully combining the funk with some sleazy snippets of 80s disco in the middle, this tune is a gem, released in 1982. With some some rather jazzy key action, you may recognize parts from another rather all time epic track (which will soon appear above).

Yeeeaaaeeeh! This Deck(s) is on Fire!

Yeeeaaaeeeh! This Deck(s) is on Fire! I heard Suggs on Radio 2 this morning, waxing lyrical about Unfinished Sympathy by Massive Attack . Without a doubt one of the greatest singles of the last 20 years, it was probably the first record of it's genre to turn me onto music that wasn't guitar-based and played by skinny, spotty wee boys from the Home Counties. Hearing it again had me scrambling around my record collection to find all the other mixes of the track that I have. The best ones are available below... The track originally appeared [...]

The Kid Daytona - "The Daytona 500 Trailer" Video

Gearing up for his debut LP Come Fly With Me in June, The Kid Daytona is dropping a mixtape entitled The Daytona 500 on 5.5.09. I know we all need another mixtape like some of us around here needs another pair of shoes, but the devil's in the details. I'll give you chance to peep the vid before going on. That's right: 7 tracks. 6 producers. All sampling from 1 song ( Bob James - "Nautilus" ). Interesting concept to say the least, but you gotta [...]

Music And Records from A Lost Playlist

Music And Records from A Lost Playlist Every now and then, I'll find the odd playlist laying around, scribbled on a cocktail napkin or a scrap of paper or a football. Some I've recorded while others were just "fantasies" (like the one where I mixed Enrico Caruso's Faust with Dwight Yoakam's Fast Cars ). I found this one as I was poking through my records , scribbled on the back of the Korgis Dumb Waiters album. I was able to lay my hands on most of the tunes. [...]

EVEN STILL... Will.I.Am is killin it this year with the production, so I once again give him props. Though he still has a lot to do to make up for Fergie (get your money Will!). Moving on...

Everyone needs a sidekick.

Everyone needs a sidekick. We rescued her from Kentucky after she was abandoned. Taylor is Cooper's 15 week old sidekick. Don't know Cooper? He's the fella at the bottom of the blog...take a scroll down. Should be fun to watch these too rough it up in the years to come. Mp3: Bob James - "Nautilus" One of my favorite soul tracks check it out. Might have to be Taylor's theme song. Everyone needs a sidekick, a partner in crime, you have got to believe that.
