“fly with me” glides effortlessly through west coast aor in a unique hybrid japanese-hawaii fashion, uplifting the listener with inspiring sound and lyrics. “time machine” is high-energy cosmic disco jam that lends itself to japanese enka, yet maintains its playability through simple yet strong songwriting. whenever we listen, it’s as if aiko has invited us to join her as she soars through the after-life, flying “higher and higher as a bird”, traversing a space “where anything is possible”.

a rare look into the discotheque era of waikiki, al nobriga’s “my last disco song” tells of a time when nightclubs lined kalakaua avenue and practically every hotel hosted live entertainment. seven days a week, locals rubbed elbows with visitors in discos like the point after, cock’s roost, garden bar, infinity, duke kahanamoku’s, foxy lady too, valentino’s, hawaiian hut—the list goes on.

first pressing of 1000 copies. mike lundy, lemuria, aura. this trifecta of inimitable hawaiian acts descended upon honolulu’s state-of-the-art broad recording studio in late 1979 to create what have now become the most coveted hawaiian funk/soul/jazz albums of the era. but whereas lemuria functioned as a short-lived studio band and mike lundy saw little success from his album’s release, aura - comprised of eight siblings from the mendoza family - remained a key figure in the nightlife scene of hawaii of the 1970s and early 1980s. each tune on their 1979 lp showcases the band’s unmatched musical talent that continues to astonish listeners in the 21st century.

this anthology brings to light the music of robert Æolus myers, featuring recordings from 1982 to 2006 that were previously available only on cassette or cd.
the music within “a retrospective” tells the story of a man whose music elevates its listeners to a place of inspiration and enlightenment. often ethereal, Æolus’ music is driven by synthesizers, melodic flutes, sweeping patterns, and subtle rhythms to seed inspiration from deep within the listener.
one might assume that Æolus carved a new path for electronic music in hawaii, but the islands never quite fully embraced the burgeoning new age scene that Æolus found himself a part of during the 1980s and the early 1990s.
few artists in hawaii have produced a body of work, let alone embarked on a musical journey, such as the one that Æolus has created.
for aloha got soul, this release marks a new chapter of bringing rare and relatively unknown music of hawaii to the surface.

mike lundy was born and raised in nu‘unau, on the island of oahu in hawaii. from an early age, lundy s original compositions caught the coveted attention of herb ono, the legendary owner of honolulu s sounds of hawaii recording studio. in 1980, lundy recorded a solo lp entitled the rhythm of life. unfortunately, he spent so much money on production that nothing was left for promotion. it went nowhere upon release.

the equally strong -taste and see- on the flipside provides the only lyrical reference to hawai (-mangos and papayas got flavors of their own-) while remaining in line with mehl s smooth west coast vibe - he hired two of chuck mangione s colleagues for the recording, guitarist steve o conner and horn player john rekevics.

in 1976, aura quickly rose to the top as hawaii’s preeminent funk band when it secured the most coveted gig in honolulu’s nightclub scene: a residency at the point after. consisting of eight siblings from the mendoza family of waipahu, aura became the first local band ever to play the venue. they kept the gig for ten years.

glow worm/aloha ice jam is the third release from oflynn, and follows two sell out releases on blip discs. described by boiler room as one of dance music s most prosperous newcomers, oflynn is quickly establishing a reputation as a bright young talent and has already had his releases supported by ben ufo, gilles peterson, bonobo, pearson sound, bradley zero, joy orbison and four tet to name but a few. a-side glow worm was premiered by james blake on his bbc radio 1 residency show and showcases a contagious synth melody that is underpinned by a percussive house groove. in a similar way to both his previous releases, the flip side takes things into a whole new territory, and in this instance the infectious disco-tinged aloha ice jam takes aim squarely at the dance floor and doesnt miss

der londoner produzent o’flynn welcher four tet, gilles peterson & bonobo zu seinen fans zählt veröffentlicht sein ninja tune-debüt! oflynn ist ein junger produzent aus london, der von den machern des boiler room als einer der vielversprechendsten newcomer im dance bereich geadelt wurde. eines der hervorstechenden 12inch-releases des jahres 2015 war o’flynns debütveröffentlichung bei blip discs, zwei tracks voll pumpender, perkussiver und afrikanisch beeinflusster house musik. tyrion entwickelte sich zum tool für four tet, ohne das er in seinen sets nur selten auskam, während das fast schon hymnische desmonds empire von musikgourmet gilles peterson aufgegriffen wurde, der es beim auflegen während des festivalsommers mit beeindruckender wirkung zum einsatz brachte. beim nachfolger oberyn/ spyglass packte er noch eine schippe klappernder perkussion drauf, die in noch stärkerer energie resultierte und airplay bei radio 1 & rinse fm zur folge hatte. seine jüngste veröffentlichung glow worm/ aloha ice jam bekam großes lob von bonobo und wurde von phonica records als eine ihrer besten singles 2016 bezeichnet. mit remixen für faltydl und addison groove und seiner kommenden 12inch für ninja tune in der pipeline, zeigt o’flynn, dass er auch in 2017 nicht daran denkt, das tempo zu verlangsamen und arbeitet stattdessen weiter daran, einen aufregenden neuen namen in der elektronischen musikszene zu etablieren.

when phil evans conceived the very first catalogue number for blank state he wore short tight pants, a very wide, washed out aloha shirt and a pair of super big, super dark pilot sunglasses. what followed was the birth of the most wonderful, freakishly weird and trippy four tracks a label could wish for by a close friend and talented young producer.

four freaky acidic electro bangers, donloadcode included.
