Records you say?

What's all this?

Er.....well I've had a bit of luck buying second hand Hip Hop so mine is mostly made up of that and some new things:

Old(er) stuff:

Jacksoul - Unconditional Love (Jinxx)
Ace soul tune from '94

Kamaal The Abstract - Album Sampler (Arista)
Previously only had the bootleg of the whole LP, so it was nice to get the official EP out of a box of 90's jiggy Hip Hop promos.

Showbiz & AG - Fat Pockets radio remix (Payday)
The Flavor Unit MCs - Roll Wit Tha Flava (Epic)
Common Sense - Soul By The Pound (Relativity)
3 x great early 90's Hip Hop 12"s

Archie Whitewater - Archie Whitewater (Cadet Concept)
Cross Country sounds lovely in the summer!

New(er) stuff:

Dwele - Subject (Virgin)
At last! After years it gets an official release. Solid LP IMO

Sara Devine - The Truth (Columbia)
Great new soulful r&b release. Yikes did I mention r&b on this site!

Georg Levin - I Got Somebody New (Sonar Kollektiv)
I missed this when it came out late last year, so I was glad to get this last week.

[Belson]

OK - I'll play;

Styles of Bobby Day - "Your love"
The Horn Band - "Pink styrofoam"
Rhetta Hughes - "What are you doing with her"
The Power Pac - "I feel good"
Pamoja - "Ooh baby"
Future Loop Foundation - whole album
J-Boogie - whole album
Hightower Set - "Dark triangle" (still listening to make sure it's perfect, y'know )
Lucille Spann - "Woman's Lib"
Fenton Robinson - "You don't know what love is"
Visit Venus - whole album from 1995
Lascelles - "One Two"
J-Walk - "Another lover - RJD2 remix"

That'll do for now.

What's on my SL1210 at the moment -

Laurie Johnson - 'Synthesis'
Gerry Butler - 'It's All In The Beat'
Wim Overgaauw/Rogier van Otterloo - 'Nuages'
Themes International - 'Pulse Of Events'
Tony Osborne - 'Top TV Themes'

[sermad]

I'm listening to the City of God OST - Amazing film about kids in the favela's of Rio.

The score is full of comedy jazz funk, latin folk, batacuda and a cover of a zannini track!

The only criminal thing is that it wasn't released on vinyl.  

All on the playlist is 'The Farm' - Innermost limits of pure fun. This an OST to an australian surf film - full of psychy rock, hammmond and just plain madness. Its a bit good.

[Sie Vulture]

All I'm gonna say is... YOU LUCKY BUGGERS !!!!



At 5am on Tuesday morning, a f*ck-off huge bolt of lightning hit my neighbours house and subsequently destroyed my Technics amp, CD player, sound processor and tapedeck.



OK, I can claim on the old insurance like, but it means I'm now without tunes for a couple of weeks and will get a kicking from some of Darlo Massive for not providing this weekends party with the necessary C90 mix !

...  will get some    action on my scrawny ass !!


BUT! one lucky break - the 1210's and the fancy-pants Numark mixer are all working OK... phew! OK, I can listen to records through the headphones, but it ain't gonna be much good when Towny Boy cruises 'round on his Pimp-Racer tonight for our usual Thursday nite beer-chuggathon !!

[Funky Tee]

At the moment I'm listenning to:

Close to you -James Last
Love Story OST
Etude in form of r'n'b -Paul Mauriat
Sambafrique -Nick Holder
Time to make a break now -Frank Duval
The Gimmicks -California Soul
Sort of soul -Birds'n Brass
Float On -Floaters
Johnny Griffiths Inc. -Graham Central Station
