^^^^^^ HERE WE GO! we have our title! :P
obAJ:
just came back from the record store. woooo woooo! I guess the holidays are
over for musicians. good cauz it had been pretty damn slow release-wise for
a while.
Anyway, here is what sounded good after a few needle drops, and you might
like those if you are into the electronic/spacey/acidic side of acidjazz:
Doctor Rockit - Ready To Rockit EP (Clear) wied, different styles, two 10"
AtticaBlues - Blueprint Remixes (Mo'Wax) includes Richie Hawtin mix, in the
same style as his old LaFunkMob mix on MoWax
Pressure Drop - Tearing The Silence double-12" (HardHands) excellent methink
Funky Porcini - King Ashabanapal mixes (NinjaTune) includes a Plaid mix
Dadomo - The Doge Of Venice EP (CupOfTea) has a good instrumental
Future Of The Funk - Less Stress
Rob Dougan + La Funk Mob - Clubbed to Death #1 (Mo'Wax)
Ancient Chinese Secrets - Shao-Lin Fury / Dragon Drums (Speed) US domestic
white label - ?? (Source Lab) two mixes of LaFunkMob material. woowoo!
sorry I can't review more in details, but I didn't listen to those carefully
yet... maybe if I have time I'll review some next week. I will also
definitely review the Eighth Dimension "Mixed Emotion" LP, which is
excellent and has a lot of success with acid-jazz djs here in Chicago (and I
thought I would have the exclusivity). However, I'm the only one to play
Q-Burns tracks (our Michael on the list) at 45rpm, both of them :) no
kidding. Michael, did you make them this way on purpose? they sound soooo
good at 45!
over.
