Music Review: B.T. Express - Keep It Up

The '70s ensemble known for "Do It ('Til You're Satisfied)" continued into the '80s with a disco-funk hybrid.

Гостевой Микс: Valotihkuu

Недавно мы рассказывали о Денисе Давыдове из Череповца, который собрал свои впечатления за год в мощную кассету « Two Shadows ». Редакция Big Echo заподозрила в Valotihkuu своего человека и не вот результат – в гостевом миксе всё именно так, как мы любим: львиная порция чиллвейва, MF DOOM, старый джаз и прочий правильный хип-хоп. В итоге получается отличная штука для домашнего прослушивания и, если бы было потеплее, можно было бы взять этот микс с собой на пикник или, по крайней мере, включить его на весь двор. Надеюсь, они в Череповце так и делают, а нам пока остаётся только завидовать и [...]

Lata Mangeshkar & B.T. Express vs. Truth Hurts

Interprète la plus prolifique au monde (50 000 enregistrements selon le Guiness Book), la musique de Lata Mangeshkar a largement dépassé les frontières indiennes pour imprégner la musique occidentale contemporaine. En plus du "Toxic" de Britney déjà emprunté au répertoire de Lata Mangeshkar , on retrouve la voix de la chanteuse sur " Addictive " autre tube interplanétaire interprété par Truth Hearts en featuring avec Rakim . Fin des années 90, Aftermath Entertainement, l'écurie dirigée par Dr.Dre fait la pluie et le beau temps sur la planète [...]

MIXTAPE #002: HEAVY SLAP BASS

MIXTAPE #002: HEAVY SLAP BASS It's the underlying element that lifts a track up to a monster groove. It's the spine of the song. It can be deep and dark, or it can be grinning right along with you. It's the slap bassline. 1. Move On (Mutant Dance Move) - Fashion A B-Side from one of the 80's best forgotten dark New Wave albums, Fabrique by Fashion . Actually an instrumental/alternate version of the single 'Move On', I absolutely adore this track. Once it hits 2:34 things start to get fun. [...]

last chance summer mix

last chance summer mix Though it's still summer in the Northern Hemisphere, we're heading for the homestretch as colleges and university students return, Back To School sales start and vacations end. Here are some tunes that have no particular relevance to the season, outside of helping set the mood for some last minute fun in the sun. Hope it's been a good one so far for one and all.

Eclectro weekend classic

Na retrodeluxe vorige week (inclusief dikke dubstep infusions met Osiris himself, maar dat dan wel in de kleine zaal) is vanavond 2generations aan de beurt. Op deze feesten wordt misschien niet de meest hippe electronische muziek gedraaid maar de klassieke dansavonden verdeeld over meerdere stages met verschillende muzieksoorten zijn momenteel wel ongelooflijk hot onder verschillende leeftijdsgroepen. Een concept dat levensvatbaar blijkt omdat er tegenwoordig een veel grotere uitgaansbehoefte bestaat bij de groep van 402ers. En dat alles onder het motto: Do it till you're satisfied. Dat zong B.T. express al in hun soulfunk classic [...]

A Funky Situation

A Funky Situation What do you get when you mix B.T. Express and Brass Construction? This is the only track by Garnett Mimms and Truckin' Company; but Garnet Mimms (with one t) was a soul singer from Ashland, West Virginia in the mid 60's. It was produced by Jeff Lane from B.T. Express and Randy Muller from Brass Constructionin 1977. The back track sounds very much like any from Brass Construction's self titled LP, but with screaming guitar and funky proto-rave synth work. The guitar can be a bit much, but I am a sucker for tambourine. [...]

Funky Friday

The weekend is here and you need the funky stuff, so here is a nice mix of tune. Sir Billy sent a couple more edits to my email this week - one from '80s Brit funkateers Fashion and the other from disco diva Sylvester. Shuttle has an EP coming out on NinjaTune called Tunnel and the label sent Rotten Guts as a taster. B.T. Express delivers the old school funk jam - whatever it is, do it 'til

The Future is Ours!

B.T. Express was an important funk disco group that had a few hits in the 70's. Their biggest single was Do It (Till You're Satisfied) which hit #2 on the Billboard Hot 100 in 1974. Their sound throughout the 70's threw a deep and groovy vibe. In 1980 they created an album that reflected a new era. They were on a quest to bring the world the future of boogie. That album was 1980 and it featured a jacket with the B.T Express spaceship on the front. The grooves are very polished and upbeat. [...]

Sample Wednesday 32: Big Daddy Kane My favorite moments when putting this together: a) hearing the sample for Das Efx's "Danger" in the Gwen McCrae track below and b) hearing Teddy Pendergrass say "come here woman!" mad abruptly in what's supposed to be the true "let me slow rock you on top of a bed of rose petals and marshmellows" type track. Dig in! 1. Loose Ends - " Hangin' On A String " from "The Lover In You" 2. Debarge - " I Like It " from "On The Bugged Tip" 3. BT [...]
