nice price deal !!! the luvin legion of hot and bothered slime creatures, ghost groovers and winged horses has landed!some refer to bmmb:s music as funk, some call it skweee, but in the end its modern modern soul.it comes from a place where heavy crunk beats make love to sticky synthesizer leads and angel-like falsetto singing. so far bmmb has mesmerized club and festival audiences around europe.bmmbs only ep (hrmn-7) released in 2009 received amazing amounts of love from educated players such as modeselektor to mention a hot name. now bmmb is back with their long-awaited and long-prepared debut-album dirty seconds on harmonia.bmmb stands for barracuda, mesak and michael black.randy barracuda:best-known as a member of the electro funkateers imatran voima and one of the pioneers of the skweee -movement.mesak:known as a solo-artist from his releases on klakson, ceo of harmonia and a member of the electro group mr velcro fastener.michael black electro: poetry in motion. best known as a member of the hiphop avantgardists ceebrolistics and for his solo -productions on black acre - records

global fusion is a term coined in 1980s to describe the postmodern transnational mixtures between different cultural heritages. like pizza americana or peter gabriels recordings with pakistani sufi singers.

and here they are: the cream of the crop, first time on vinyl as a limited edition of 500 copies! respectfully remastered and selected by team harmonia, the music of other power sounds more contemporary in 2012 than contemporary music itself does. (take simhaghosha for example. sounds like ultra-advanced instrumental hip hop, doesnt it?) without a further ado: enjoy these intergalactic soundscapes from the mind of a true visionary. this was high tech jazz a decade before underground resistance, and instead of detroit it was recorded somewhere in the foggy forests of finland during 1978-1985.

spring 2006 was both cruel and exciting. radiating hot helsinki nights, too much light and vivid, restless dreams about music. while chucking down a glass of cheap brandy in a local bar the idea finally materialized: lets start a record label! a label that would bring people together. proud people. people thinking of music. people doing their own thing in their own way in their own basements. and most importantly, people who understood the meaning of space between notes. after 5 years, 16 records, 85 tracks and 44 artists from 13 countries it goes without saying that those restless dreams became reality. and so did the music.

you are about to experience the first long-playing album of pavan, the originator of skweee-music. skweee, also known as the synthetic scandinavian funk, is a worldwide phenomena hailing originally from the frosty alleys of stockholm and helsinki. the raw, unpolished electronic funk tracks of this album were recorded in 2003-2006, when the term itself didnt yet exist. now, half a decade later, these rough diamonds finally see the light of day. this magnificient album is sprinkled with analogue synthesizer magic, extraordinaire soundscapes and body rockin grooves tight as spandex.

on lebensraum the listener finds a totally new aspect of randy barracudas aural art: gone are the rapid staccato melodies and usual stiff funkiness.maybe credit00, a mysterious east-german bongo player, gave the track its naturalistic charm and the comfy aura of a forest in the springtime.
