Releases from artist / Veröffentlichungen von : Mind Fair

new special editions edits from magic wand label 4 heavy duty disco reworks from mind fair

mind fair return with a deadly two-part interpretation of the joe jackson classic steppin out. for their latest rogue cat sounds incarnation the golf channel mainstays have enlisted the indispensable talents of charmaine baines on vocals, climax blues bands derek holt (bass &guitar) and alex bradbury (sundown drive) on keys. this slowed down, melting pot of soca not soca meets lovers rock, reggae, blues and soul is brought to you in two parts part one deals mostly with the song, charmaine s vocals sounding suitably dreamy and laid back whilst part two puts focus on the instrumental groove where the guitars, strings and rhodes are the main attraction. mark e provides one of his merc dubs on the flip which takes a afro rhythm meets beat down central then builds intensively with rhodes and a horn section breakdown to die for the man is on form! essential music to step out to this summer for sure!

the no stress express rolls back into town with their second offering for rogue cat sounds, where they pick you up and transport you to the sunnier climes and headier days of 1980s caribbean. steel drums, loose-limbed percussion, lazy synth stabs and carefree basslines, all infused with a whiff of woodbines, jerk chicken and dark rum. as the sun sets, the party picks up momentum. barefoot beach dancing.

includes the cd *mind fair present a journey to the places inbetween*.

auf seinem debütalbum überzeugt das britische duo mind fair, bestehend aus dean meredith (chicken lips) und ben shenton, mit einem psychedelischen ravesound aus knarzenden gitarren und groovigen bongos. elemente aus krautrock und psychedelia mischen sich mit dancefloor-styles zu einem funky rock-groove-amalgam. spät-60 er treffen früh-90 er und gehen tanzen!

the first part of another golf channel double header from the insanely prolific and scarily on form combination of dean meredith & ben shenton. a side *c.e.r.e.m.o.n.y.* has been dubbed the barnyard stomp by split secs / sonns travis kirschbaum (aka tk disco) - 11 minutes of bluesy peyote riot that features derek holt of 70s black country legends the climax blues band. b side *hiding from my shadow* is ripe with the funk too, but takes us away from the fertile stench of the psychedelic session in the barn and instead channels minneapolis via stafford as p-funk squiggles give way to mr. meredith’s trademark chugging bass. metal and technology vs mother earth in an elemental battle - both sides win! golf channel every time !

rogue cat sounds are back in town with a real treat. charm with you, a warm female soulful number, hits the spot in every way

following some very well received releases on international feel & rogue cat, dean meredith & ben shentons mind fair deliver their best work yet on the mighty golf channel. four superb tracks of loosely assembled and live workouts, ranging from psych-funk, to the superb pulsing, european jam of wrong wire to more avant-garde explorations. beautifully fusing vintage synths, live instrumentation and an expert ear for dynamic arrangements - this is another gc classic!

every now and then, a record comes along…this is one of those occasions. but...it is not any old record, it is a new one. specifically, the new 12inch single from sundown drive, brought to you by mind fair and rogue cat sounds. moving on from the body and soul that embodied their first trip, sd transcend you to the annals of deep clubland and melodically twist your heart strings with an early morning flutter and a tantric tension. the meandering-yet-purposeful piano finding its feet later in the proceedings this time, but rising to full effect, leaving only the dub to knock us sideways into a beautifully-simplistic dark alley of spring reverbs, synthesized prophecy and the voices in ya head telling you to give it up.

excellent deep disco house madness, incl the rhythm odyssey mix

brill smoothin / soulful deep / disco house

the first release for their rogue cat sounds imprint is the >no stress express!<, a beautiful piece of swampy psychedelic disco/rock. the 11min original takes you on a dark ethereal adventure thru spiky guitar riffs, mutant brass stabs, melting warm fender rhodes piano, silky deep synth chords, an array of sexy afro percussion, heavy dub live bass, and a lush but eerie live string section which all comes on like a dinosaur l jam session via a david mancuso loft party! so go on and take a walk on the rogue side of town baby!

its time for some armenian influenced disco, courtesy of kerrys scene. whatever it is, it has got the funk. add to this two deep remixes from legowelt and yes (oh yes) mr theo parrish and you know you have got something very special on your hands. complete with deluxe full artwork packaging and 180g vinyl!
