having co-compiled two albums, the real sound of chicago and the real sound of chicago and beyond for bbe, dj and producer mark grusane steps out of the shadows to present the real sound of mark grusane.
a highly personal selection of modern soul, disco and a little touch of boogie, these rare tracks have all been respectfully edited, chopped up or extended by mark himself. apart from the odd private vinyl pressing, or occasionally handing an edit over to close friends and djs such as fellow bbe artist sadar bahar, mark has never before made these tracks available (despite the throng of people waiting around to ask each time he finishes a set).

zwei jahre lang hat der in san francisco beheimatete produzent giraffage in seinem schlafzimmer an seinem debŸtalbum gewerkelt, das von seiner persšnlichen reise der selbstheilung erzŠhlt, bei dem jeder song eine andere periode in seinem leben reprŠsentiert. kaleidoskopische beats und vertrŠumte synth-pop- und r&b-melodien umrahmen das neue werk, bei dem japanese breakfast, body language s angelica bess und viele andere mitgewirkt haben. der sohn zweier taiwanesischer einwanderer ist schon frŸh zur musik gekommen - einer deutlichen abweichung der sonstigen kulturellen erwartungen innerhalb seiner familie. doch schnell schaffte er mit ganz speziellen remixen seiner r&b-lieblingslieder, die im internet regelrecht explodierten, den aufstieg vom regional bekannten act, der blo§ in kleinen auskennerblogs beachtung fand, hin auf die bŸhnen der weltweit grš§ten festivals.

following on from the 2015 return to the frey real ibiza returns to the white isle for the 2016 edition of the benchmark balearic compilation -real ibiza volume 9-. first launched in 2000 real ibiza was one of the first wave of ibiza / balearic inspired compilations. a cornerstone of the genre alongside the caf̩ del mar series. real ibiza gets inside the balearic bloodstream by mixing in downtempo sensibilities, mellow house, cool jazz and plentiful doses of evening sun-washed grooves. for episode 9 bahamian dj loudery returns to sample the delight and mood of balearic music worldwide. as is the formula for real ibiza the zeitgeist is all ibiza whereas the particpants int the music hail from locations all over the word. first up we head to prague to sample the 30 piece string section of the prague philharmonic orchestra with czech producer sonority setting a mellow introducing tone with the cinematic -virtus-. its then a trip to the other side of the world for australian producer gary b to set things on a dreamy plateau with his bass guitar driven -better life-. next it is some unabashed sunshine groove with the lazy trumpet, sunshine piano and -boys of summer- guitar with -isla paradisco- from steven solveig.

auf der anderen seite hat er fŸr factory records (new order, joy division) das sublabel -factory classical- betreut. er ist als musiker auch mitglied bei durutti column und dem duke quartet (interpretationen von steve reich etc.). mit dem solo-album -the appearance of colour- schlŠgt das pendel in richtung elektronisch-gefŠrbter pop musik aus, wobei er seine fŠhigkeiten als komponist und arrangeur nicht vernachlŠssigt. so Ÿberzeugen die neun titel durch die spannenden kontraste zwischen electronica, pop, ambient und drum & bass changieren die stŸcke und bilden doch ein unnachahmliche einheit.

cd in 6-panel digipak printed in three pantone colours. featuring all-new material and recorded in the bands isolated studio on the edge of the essex marshes, the album ebbs and flows in mood like the nearby blackwater estuary. working with a palette of vintage drum machines, analogue synths, textural samples, acoustic recordings, electric bass & heavily treated guitar, the songs were born out of captured live studio performances.

for over a decade mark grusane & mike cole have been a vast music resource for djs, producers, collectors, rare music compilers, and specialty stores around the world. they started individually, each with their love of music. they traded and sold music with those -in the know- for years. in 2004 mark & mike focused their energies into founding mr. peabody records. the business plan and mission was to become a world class resource for all genres of obscure music. until now, their focus has been growing the shop. but the soul of mr. peabody records does not reside in the bricks and mortar the store, or even in the bins of records themselves. the real genius lies in mark & mikes unique ear for music.
