I always thought it was a bit of a bummer that while I was enjoying myself at Hawkwind's Strange Daze festival somewhere on the other side of the ocean (well, Paris) Princess Diana was being hunted down by a pack of wild journalists. While at the fest I traded some high end beers to the guy that ran Ceres Records for a copy of Assassins of Silence, his Hawkwind tribute compilation. The most astounding piece of music on this disc was Puff Tube's version of Quark, Strangeness & Charm. Enjoy: Oh, btw, Puff [...]

Contrary to what you may think, the 20jazzfunkgreats diaspora likes to keep informed, and from time to time, participate in the key debates of that 'real world' of yours which floats parallel to the alternative dimension from which we broadcast. We still care for all you fleshers, left behind in a universe of scarce resources and crippling entropy. Today it's the Great Stagnation that concerns us. To simplify a lot, the 'Great Stagnation' thesis argues that median salaries in Western economies (and particularly the USA) have stalled because you have picked all the lower [...]

In the words of the great poet Janet Jackson: "that the end? NO." For those of you who liked your early morning shuffletech, here's something to kick-start your weekend... In the form of a Res Mag math equation: + + = Quarks: I Walk (Superpitcher Mix) [...]

Teutonic sounds for a weekend that came a tad late for me. Most of the songs feature a steady motorik beat set to replicate the experience of motorway driving through the autobahn... or just bouncing on your living room alone at 4 am. All flowing, repetitive and slightly snobbish. An accurate aural copy of how I've been feeling this week. 01. Gas - untitled 1 (Pop, 2000) 02. Zorn - eckermann (block 011, 2001) 03. Mikkel Metal - kaluga [...]
