nachpressung des akua naru albums aus dem jahr 2015 als 140g pressung im klappcover ohne download-coupon!
inspiriert durch gespräche mit der renommierten autorin und professorin für african studies, dr. tricia rose, orientiert sich die botschaft des zweiten studio-albums der in köln lebenden exil-amerikanerin akua naru an den erfahrungen dunkelhäutiger menschen in den usa und europa. der titel ist eine metapher und steht für die schicksalhafte ambivalenz jener kanarienvögel, die früher als eine art warnsystem für unvorhersehbare ereignisse im bergbau eingesetzt wurden. das album enthält beiträge großartiger künstler, die akua bei ihren touren und zahlreichen studioaufenthalten rund um den globus kennen- und schätzen lernte, darunter schlagzeuger-legende bernard purdie (roy ayers, last poets), den trompeter christian scott (prince) sowie cody chesnutt (-the seed 2.0 feat. the roots-), die neo-soul-durchstarterin georgia anne muldrow, den drummer daru jones (jack white) und den bei motown-france gesignten soulsänger ben l oncle soul. maßgeblich beeinflusst von jazz, neo soul, blues und r&b, punktet -the miner s canary- mit einer deutlich ausgeprägteren hip hop-Ästhetik als akua narus 2012 erschienenes debüt -the journey aflame-.

low-down and dirty jazz goes right back to the early 1900s in storyville, after the bands had played their hot tunes in the evening for dancing couples, the musicians would head off to the after-hours joints and play a less energetic but more bluesy kind of music, enabling them and their late-night audiences to get through to the early hours of the morning without suffering total exhaustion. and nobody in new orleans laid into the blues so low down and dirty as buddy bolden, whose funky butt became a staple in the repertoire of the citys early jazz bands.
jacksonville, florida, 1960. charles hungry williams mentors young clayton fillyau after he had just joined the james brown band: *i dont care where you put it on those drums, remember where 1 is and you ll never lose the time. listen to hungry on huey smiths *talk to me baby* and then listen to how clayton turns it into a relentless breakbeat on james browns *i ve got money*. earl kings *trick bag*, prefiguring the meters, is as good an example of early new orleans funk as can be found.

ronald burrell s second release as equation on nu-groove is as deep as it gets. we re talking late night nyc back room deepness, often imitated but never bettered. -i ll say a prayer 4 u- is the lead track here, a sublime longing synth groove with a nagging bassline and crisp rimshots, a total -under the radar- anthem straight out of new york city circa 1991 and engineered by the equally as legendary bobby konders, a real undercover gem. the other two cuts on the ep drive further into the night, -domm domm, yeah mm hmm- is another dope basement groove, rocking some classic burrell flavours, and -my life- is a real down-tempo piece that reappropriates the roy ayers classic -my life in the sunshine- while giving it a real -100 bpm house- swing, don t snooze... all in all this is another classic release from the nu-groove vaults, re-mastered and re-pressed here for the first time in conjunction with nu-groove records and the burrell brothers. essential.

beg to differ is a dance music duo comprised of house hero nick chacona and wurst label boss roy dank. the two longtime friends started tinkering around in the studio last year, remixing the likes of detachments for thisisnotanxit as well as nicks solo outing with kathy diamond for moodmusic, and quickly finding favor with fellow new yorkers james murphy and holy ghost!. influenced by talking heads, my bloody valentine, and paulsimpson, beg to differs work is characterized by big hooks, live instrumentation, and lush production. the duos wurst debut features two massive - and decidedly different - reworks. parisian afrobeat masters bibi tanga & the selenites get the full beg to differ overhaul on >be africa<, complete with infectious arpeggios, killer keys, and an entirely new rhythm section, with nick himself on bass duties. the pop rock of the hours >ali in the jungle< is transformed into an epic, string-laden anthem taking in disco, rock, and even trance by the end of the mix. heavy to say the very least.

jerome derradji pulls another boogie down disco jam from the past due archives with 3 stunning cosmic disco remixes from james curd (greenskeepers music , dfa), nick chacona (bear funk, mood music) and my cousin roy (wurst records).

nice price deal !!! this second release from glasgows fortified recordings is a departure in sound from their first acclaimed ep by dundees loops haunt, but all the same in attitude. iranian born, texas residing garagesmith vvv uses his late night musical tests to forge and perfect his sonic output, and deploys a range of techniques not normally found in the often formulaic world of garage and dubstep. this patchwork quilt of laced beats, field recordings and intensive sample editing has made manifest a four track ep that simultaneously references the work steve gurley, todd edwards, carl craig, my bloody valentine, the cocteau twins and roy davis junior via the bastardised strains of 2-step and house practiced by the likes of ramadanman, untold and joy orbison, peppered with that magic elusive el_b swing that only the greats are able to achieve. at the same time familiar yet different (how many times have you heard that?), the four tracks on projects kick with the intensity of the best club music and invokes the cosmic spirit of classic motor city techno with an uplifting and deep soulful vibe that reveals layers of orchestrated natural sound upon repeated listens. in other words, its sexy as fuck. slated for an official release early march , one can only assume this limited 12inch will fly off the shelf much like fortified s inaugural release did

>all tracks are great! will definately play it... pianos on the beach is amazing.<
- robin (david gilmour girls)
>yeah, as i said, i think its your best edit 12 so far. the choice of tracks is great, >pianos on the beach< is the kind jam youd like to hear on a dancefloor late at night, i guess this could have been played by francis grosso or mancuso. same for >look at you<, fantastic track, very emotionnal, whis has something of an anthem. keep on sending me such a thing. (btw, i m a fan of canyons label, great stuffs)<
-cosmo vitelli
>this is the kind of release that makes me excited to dj again...and again. theres something here for the beginning, middle, and end of a great night.<

>nice one jacques, sounding good man!<
-mark e
>mr. renault is on a roll!!!!! seeing as everyone and their mother is doing edits these days, it comes as no surprise than the man takes it to the proverbial next level with this ep.<
-my cousin roy (wurst music)
>love these - more great edits from jacques. have been playing them out with great results!<
-prince language
