Ôlillygood party!Õ is the brand new bbe compilation from highly respected swiss dj alex attias. taking its name from a party he runs in his native lausanne, lillygood has gradually evolved into a radio show and even a label, now on its 4th release. refecting the music he plays at the clubnight, Ôlillygood party!Õ is packed with funk, disco, deep house and boogie bullets from across the globe. Òthe idea is to present not only rare or difcult tracks to fnd, simply good grooves for people to play out, or listen to at home.Ó
from rare japanese disco gems, through spiritual jazz, to genre defying sounds from broken-beat cohorts kaidi tatham and dego, Ôlillygood party!Õ takes a unique trip inside the musical mind of one of dance musicÕs true nonconformists.
alex attias got his start in back in Õ88 playing funk, house, jazz, and disco, as well as producing under various monikers such as mustang, freedom soundz or beatless. moving to london in Õ97 he started his ÔvisionsÕ label and found himself at the epicentre of the emerging west london Ôbroken beatÕ scene which grew around his studio at goya. releases on people, planet e, ubiquity, neroli, archive and compost followed, as well as remixes for incognito, 4hero, ennio morricone, sun ra, art blakey, roni size and laurent garnier among others.

without new jersey native kerri kaoz chandler, house specifically deep house would sound very different. ever since his teens he has been making and playing music with a unique sense of soul, jazz and deepness. from majors like atlantic, king street sounds and nervous via his own madhouse, his releases are never short of genre-defining classics that have spawned a thousand copycats. affectionately referred to as the stevie wonder of house, kerriÕs dj sets take him all over the world and often find him playing live keys next to his informed selections. heÕs meticulous about sound, too, which means that no-ones kicks hit quite like kerris. his instantly classic and timeless dj-kicks mix, though, takes him out of the club and through a world of influences and inspiration

diese zusammenstellung ist gewisserma?en der soundtrack zur ausstellung -soul of a nation: art in the the age of black power-, die 2017 sowohl in der londoner tate gallery als auch im new yorker brooklyn museum gezeigt wird. dabei geht die kompilation den einfl?ssen nach, welche die b?rgerrechtsbewegung und der schwarze nationalismus im gefolge von martin luther king, malcolm x und der black panther party gegen ende der sechzigerjahre auf radikale afroamerikanische musikentw?rfe in den usa hatten. zu den von soul jazz pr¤sentierten k?nstlern gehüren ikonen wie gil scott-heron, roy ayers, don cherry, oneness of juju, sarah webster fabio, horace tapscott und phil ranelin. deren werke illustrieren, wie politische themen zur entwicklung einer -conscious black music- f?hrte, in der verschiedene popul¤re afrozentrische stile dieser umbruchszeit kulminierten - die radikale spiritualit¤t john coltranes, der radikale avantgardismus eines sun ra, james-brown-funk, der soul aretha franklins und urbane proto-rap-poesie der metropolen. wie f?r soul jazz typisch kommt das ganze opulent ausgestattet mit umfassenden begleittexten und exklusiven fotografien.

zip ist nicht nur eine der umtriebigsten persšnlichkeiten der hiesigen house/techno-szene, sondern auch eines ihrer grš§ten rŠtsel. er scheut das rampenlicht, ist aber in allen bereichen elektronischer clubmusik allgegenwŠrtig: als dj (mit residenzen in der berliner panorama bar und im offenbacher robert johnson), als erfolgreicher labelbetreiber (perlon, mit dem hauptact ricardo villalobos) und als produzent (dimbiman). zip hat es sich nicht nehmen lassen, der einladung der legendŠren fabric-serie folgend, eine eigene ausgabe abzuliefern, bei der er auf nonkonformistische art und weise techno-takte aufbricht und sie in warme deep-house-grooves ŸberfŸhrt. das ergebnis ist so einzigartig wie schillernd und mit sicherheit eine weiterer meilenstein dieser kultigen ausnahmeserie.
