[ Still Music ] It's not often that we'll write up a repress here at LWE, especially when the original discs were released less than a decade ago, but then In The Dark is a pretty special collection of music. Helping to illuminate a more current trend of Detroit electronic music and dispel the notion that the Motor City has only ever been about techno, In the Dark was originally minted in 2005 on Jerome Derradji's Still Music [...]

This excellent series pairs off veteran Rick "the Godson" Wilhite with Kyle "MF" Hall for three under-the-counter future classics. 'After Fall' is essentially Kyle's KDJ tribute, attacking a bass-strong loop with a barrage of filters to make you seriously lose your sh*t in the best way possible. With 'Analog Love' The Godson uses the classic 'Love & Happiness' a cappella to flavour a brilliantly tricky groove made for the dancers but the real diamond lies in wait on the flipside. 'Microburst' features Kyle's heavyweight drum programming with absolutely devastating edits from Rick, chopping out mad metallic twists and jazzy angles [...]
[ Still Music ] ( buy vinyl ) ( buy CD ) ( buy mp3s ) Authenticity plays a major role in the career of a musician. Those who remain true to themselves and their artistic vision are generally regarded in higher esteem even though they often may not receive the recognition or attention they deserve. A perfect example of this would be Rick Wilhite, the Detroit producer otherwise known as The Godson, one quarter of 3 Chairs, and one of the most underrated producers out there, who despite releasing exceptional [...]
Great pairing here, for me the standout track from Rick Wilhite's new album - Analog Aquarium. It's a cover of the track originally released in 1978 both by English singer-songwriter Mick... DOWNLOAD/ STREAM http://www.feelmybicep.com
★★★☆☆ From a starter of sprightly funky house and garage flavor, Detroit's decades-spanning "Godson" is a class act, his opening salvo reworking Michael Jackson with the help of no lesser parties than Osunlade and Theo Parrish. However, "Analog Aquarium" progressively begins to separate itself — though by and large he laces club sounds with degrees [...]
Legendary Detroit house producer Rick "The Godson" Wilhite has been involved in the techno and electronic scene in his local city since its inception in the early 802s. He's produced and released a large number of tracks along side the likes of Kenny Dixon Jnr , Theo Parrish and Malik Pittman as well as carving out a very successful DJ career. Now, he's set to release his first solo album "Analog Aquarium". Crammed full of a myriad of influences from jazz, soul and funk to more experimental electronica, several of the [...]

Le projet Dj Kicks est l'une des meilleures choses qui soient arrivées à la musique ces dernières années. Le principe est de donner carte blanche à des musiciens phares de la scène électro qui ne sont pas Djs pour un grand mix où ils peuvent selon leurs désirs révéler des artistes qui leurs sont chers, expérimenter ou faire danser. Après Annie, Hot Chip, Chromeo et Erlend Oye, c'est maintenant Juan Mac Lean qui s'y colle avec un super mix qui sort cette semaine. Pour fêter ça, je tente l'impossible: faire une sélection de la sélection, un Dj [...]

For our second year-end report, LWE correspondent Peder Clark showcases the top five reissues from 2009 When contributors to LWE were discussing end of year lists amongst ourselves, a colleague commented that "this past year has seemed so exciting to me, it's amazing how much of what's got me revved up has been compilations and reissues." I found myself agreeing with him - It might have been a pointed comment about the perceived weakness of much of this year's output, but it might just as easily be read as praise for the huge quantity of impressive [...]
