the roots of soul music are alive and well in these stirring recordings of a capella gospel by these three extraordinary voices from como, mississippi.

>love has made me stronger< ist eine fantastische neuendeckung eines albums aus dem jahr 1976! die sängerin und harfenistin carol kleyn spielte in den 70er jahren mit größen wie john lennon, robert plant, phil spector graham nash, anne murray oder gregg allman. ihr album ist eine tolle evokation von west coast folk-rock sounds der 70er jahre, carols stimme erinnert an joni mitchell und essra mohawk.

the >just for fun< ep starts with the title track just4fun, which in fact breathes fun and doesnt take itself too seriously. the funky and highly infectious keys and the butt shaking groove will remind you of a track that moodymann never made, but wishes he had. next comes unlimited01 with a joyful piano melody that would fit right into a french disco with a funkier version of alain delon behind the decks. still, the rhodes chords, the slow sexy groove, the vocal hooks will get you moving in no time. thang then goes into a more detroit beatdown direction with its deep chords and smooth pads. it creates a mellow atmosphere with an almost relaxed summer feeling. this is what a funky pimp would listen to on a night car drive. the ep ends with spiritual almost tribal rhythms. inspiration would be a nice soundtrack to a 70s orgy orchestrated by a groovy guru, surrounded by a magical circle of mystical dancers. over the top? sure, but the track would certainly get this party going.

straight comes the next release on mettmann-based experimental label shhhh, catalog number 008 - the long awaited full length album by daniel half from sardinia, italy. it is called >lonely boy< and consists of - heavenly-medium-transparent creamy sky-colored vinyl with 10 brand new tracks - dvd including videos to all tracks - pocket board game >the ghost of the lonely boy< - download-code for the entire album in mp3-format - download comes with an exclusive wardrobe memories remix (digital only). with a limitation of 196 copies this is a very special item and the most epic release on shhhh to date. every record is hand commissioned and full of beautiful details.

greg wilson needs little in the way of introductions, a stalwart of both the british 80s electro-funk scene and the current disco/edit movement to boot. release #16 sees greg make a welcome return to kat after his previous outing way back in 2007, and, again, his diverse music taste comes to the table to delight.

basement freaks return to jalapeno with a 4 track ep of killer funk, heavy, heavy beats and deep blues vocals. always one of the serious players in the ghetto funk scene – his music has always been able to transcend genres and gets dropped in clubs and parties round the world.

bereits während der letzten drive-by truckers tour begann patterson hood am vorliegenden album zu arbeiten. ursprünglich hatte er geplant ein buch zu schreiben, dann stellte er aber schnell fest, dass die texte sehr an songformaten angelegt waren und sie sich nahtlos in seine musikalischen entwürfe einfügten. das album wurde in seiner heimatstadt athens/georgia aufgenommen, und er ließ sich dabei von fast der gesamten drive-by truckers crew musikalisch unterstützen. ein album für fans von wilco, neil young, alberta cross und natürlich drive-by truckers.
