zu den top-plattendrehern der 90er jahre wie deep dish, paul oakenfold und sasha & john digweed, die allesamt den sound von renaissance in den anfangstagen mitbestimmten, zŠhlte auch ein aus buenos aires operierender dj und produzent namens hernan cattaneo

the dark age of lost-cool, a time of dimensional imbalance when music was devoured by a black-hole of wackness. now, marked by a solar-flare in the funky constellations, soul clap delivers a galactic renaissance to fill our ears with interplanetary consciousness and emancipate our booties from the androids of dancefloor repetition.

nickel and penny are twin sides of the same eccentric coin, and that coin was chicagos no.1 dusties dj richard pegue. he was the writer,arranger and producer of some of the most beautiful chicago soul records in the 60s and 70s..

das nŠchtliche gemunkel am tresen bei bier und klaren war irritierend gewesen: aufs neue album, so drummer zimmermann und basser strohmeier, wŸrde das lo fat orchestra auch kinderchšre und ein streichquartett packen. man dachte mit grauen an Çthe wallÈ, konzeptalben-bombast, artrockkacke und hoffte halb, das sei nur der berŸchtigte schwarzwŠlder humor. jetzt ist Çthe second word is loveÈ da. nicht mit kinder- aber mit chšren und natŸrlich mit streichquartett. die befŸrchtungen zerbršseln im nu, wenn im opener Çbe honestÈ die bassdrum nagelt, die elektrizitŠt in der luft rauscht und singt, bevor der sŠgezahnbass und schmids gesang und orgel einsetzen. alles gut! alles besser! alles: mehr!

do you love elegant, sophisticated music with a feeling, as much as raw, gutsy, hard-hitting music? guessing that you do penniman records takes great pride in introducing you to the excitements, because their music fits into both categories. they are an all natural free-of-additives-and-preservatives r&b / soul band. a band with both feet solidly planted on memphis and detroit, and with a heartbeat which is pure chicago. to put it simply, the excitements are what the doctor ordered: six dynamite musicians intent on bringing out the very best from koko jean davis extraordinary voice, a voice which will either break your heart or astonish your ears, whatever koko fancies the most. the excitements career is truly awesome. their first gig took place in july 2010, and a month after that the band embarked on the first of their three recording sessions, their first spanish tour and a series of concerts all across europe. very few groups can boast of enjoying such a critical success, selling so many 45s and capturing such a loyal following in so short a time. their splendid first album, -the excitements- available on vinyl and cd - has been produced by the great mike mariconda - the only living man with a direct connection between his ears and his crotch. hearing is believing, and koko and her partners are bound to mesmerize with numbers such as nathaniel mayer s -from now on-, barbara stephens s -wait a minute- and little richard s -never let you go-, a track which will go straight to your heart. you may call them old-fashioned. a classic sound, if you wish. one thing is clear: the good stuff is here to stay. stop reading, listen to the excitements and hear for yourself.

is the world strange or am i strange? is the sophomore album from 22 year old brian eno-approved musician cosmo jarvis. the devon-based singer-songwriter follows his debut humasyouhitch / sonofabitch with another album full of his unique musical stylings, including the singe and viral video hit -gay pirates-.

this collection documents the two-decades-plus recording career of r&b icon luther vandross. even before he started putting out records under his own name, he was a first-call session singer (hes the one who created and sang the chorus hook on david bowies -young americans,- for just one example). throughout the 80s and the 90s, he was (both commercially and aesthetically) one of the most consistently successful r&b singer/songwriter/producers. this healthy two-disc selection of highlights from the impressive vandross catalogue moves deftly from heartfelt ballads (-a house is not a home-) to percolating, poppy numbers (-never too much-), spotlighting the mans mellifluous voice and tasteful phrasing at each turn. this is quite clearly the definitive career summary for this deeply influential r&b titan.

2011 collection featuring cuts from shuggie otis, sly & the family stone and aretha franklin.. the old grey whistle test has now been synonymous with quality music for 40 years. although possibly best know as a show for rock music, the show maintained an amazing variety when it came to choosing its artists, it really only had two criteria, 1, that the artists had released an album and 2 that they produced great music. this collection mostly features artists that appeared on the show but also include artists who for whatever reason didnt or couldnt appear on the show.

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.

-love has no recession-, is the fourth album from husband and wife duo fatin dantzler and aja graydon and the follow up to 2008s arrival. it continues on a similar vein to their previous 3 albums with another album aimed squarely at the adult contemporary

ltd edition !!

musikalisch ist drums between the bells die abwechslungsreichste arbeit enos seit jahren. perkussive tracks, basierend auf industrial/noise, rock oder ethno-elementen wechseln sich ab mit elektronischen oder klassischen listening-passagen von erhabener schšnheit. doch das album ist mehr. sŠmtliche tracks sind mit gedichten des lyrikers rick holland versehen, vorgetragen von eno persšnlich oder personen seines umfeldes (fitnessstudio, ladenangestellte, buchhalter, grafikdesigner, ...). jeder trŠgt seinen part inviduell unterschiedlich vor: narrativ, per vocoder verfremdet, als mantra, mit echo verhallen, stakkato, hypnagogisch, als gebet, abstrakt. eno nennt sie speech-songs. seine arbeit ist eine innovative kombination aus musik & text, eine neuartige form von sprechgesang und sicherlich sein interessantestes werk seit langem!

each summer, a new raft of dance compilations stake claim to represent the real ibiza. but, if anyone deserves that that accolade, it is josŽ padilla, who first arrived on the white island in 1975 and who has been djling there ever since. for jose it has been always great to experience different music and play around the colours. as jose days if it was grey, id play one way, if it was very bright, id play happy. id play with the mood. those sunsets have become legendary Ð an essential part of the ibiza experience, climaxing in warm applause as the sun finally disappears beneath the waves, and those famous mix tapes evolved into the much-loved cafŽ del mar compilation albums, conceived and compiled by josŽ padilla, which have now sold over 5 million copies around the world.

best of summer tunes!
