Actually, I got em both while visiting japan in december, and they are
really nice on the whole... I only got the Phonophile 001 Free Style by
Giles Peterson in front of me, so Ill get back to you on the UFO one later
this evening.
Not much to say about them. Great choices great tunes. A very good mix of
mainly drum'n'bass, bossa and soul. The ufo one got a little different
angle with some hip-hop and other stuff...
Tracklisting from Giles P as follows.
1. 4Hero - Planetaria (a theme from a dream)
2. Terry Callier - Love Theme from Spartacus (4Hero remix)
3. Roni Size=Reprazent - Watching Windows (Roni Size meets Nuyorican Soul)
4. Lalo Schifrin - Maria
5. Meirelles e Os Copa 5 - Solo
6. Tamba Trio - Mas Que Nada
7. Gal Costa - Tuareg
8. Ellen Mcilwaine - WIngs of A Horse
9. Marvelettes - Here I am Baby
10. Marva Whitney - Girls in Love
11. Nina Simone - Feeling Good
12. Dee Dee Bridgewater - Pretty Eyes
13. Charles Earland - Intergalactic Love Song
and its all rounded up with Giles himself going through the tracklisting
of the album.
PHCR 1633 is the cat # and the rec label is Mercury/TalkingLoud/Brownswood
- pick the one you want, but I guess its Mercury in the end. To confuse it
a bit theese compilations is also called the "loopmaster cd:s" wich I
guess is a kind of publicity stunts surrounding pioneer LoopmasterCD
player (there is a special ufo version of this machine... but its big and
ugly as all the models :-)
As said Ill get back to you on the ufo take later on...
