Keyser & Shuriken - newsletter #16: Connecting people
(Brought to you weekly with the kind support of Jah, the almighty and the evil Gorilla.)
Newsflash 06.04.2000
This week has passed without big surprises. In our Sunday morning radio show we finally had the time to play the goodies that good boys and bad girls send us from labels and home studios (check the track listings below). We also had Yonderboi (we hope you can get his album 'Shallow and Profound', if not, write to laszlo@ucmg.hu for infos) as guest in the Tilos studio that morning. Unfortunately the web link to our radioshow hasn't been working in the last few weeks, since they changed from RealAudio to MP3-streaming. The people at the radio are working heavily on it, so soon you can listen to it again.
And read something (now an email) about the incredible power of internet in connecting the right people, spreading the right vibes, promoting the right ideas (people on the A-J mailing list please excuse us for reposting this message):
A sunday afternoon story by Jeremy from the Acid Jazz list <acid-jazz@ucsd.edu>:
"was in my local record shop/cafe aka Halcyon in b'klyn on sunday and there was a dj spinning some very eclectic and good musics. His name is Palotai and he even threw a Turok throat singing song into the set.
With the dj was another guy talking with the owners of the store, pointing to cd's and saying "yeah we released that and oh' this is good" and so on and hey check out this CDR...
This sparked my curiosity and so when he pulled out a Yonderboi 12" I thought hey these guys are from Mole records. So I said to the talker (not the deejay) "I've heard good things about the Mole stuff, where can I
get it in the states?" and he says " how'd you hear of Mole and I'm from the Hungary arm of Mole." Responding I say "I am on the A-J list and we get these weekly news letters from Keyser & Shuriken, which are cool and spread the word on what's happenin over there."
Well to the point the guy says that Shuriken wrote the liner notes for Palotai's CD and he say's Keyser & Shuriken are way cool and anyway been loving the tips from the newsletter and it cool to see what a global thing this music thing is."
When Palotai got home from NY, he asked me if we sent that guy to him. I (Shuriken) told him: Zsolt (his first name), we didn't send him. These people just go up to you by themselves. They are like that.
Keep on spreading the word till next week!
