welcome reissue for this super-rare space funk album from 1983, one of the holy grails of the cosmic scene. extremely expensive and hard-to-find in the original, this lp was created by legendary french producers jean-pierre massiera and bernard torelli (listed here as areisam and bernie) and released on french label savoir faire. it is a superb example of the duos innovative electronic disco madness, always pushing boundaries while remaining supremely funky. stand-out tracks are the italo classic >challenger< - heady synths, tough bass and astronaut vocals combine in a strange space odyssey, >cruisin<, a superb electro-boogie style cut with a hypnotic driving bassline, and the fantastic >on the border<, a tight funky percussive workout whipped by wild space-rock guitars. but as you would expect from the massiera/torelli trademark, all tracks are great and the lp a worthy addition to any self-respecting italo / cosmic collection.

though some only know the byrds for their covers, critics believe that they are amongst the most important and influential bands of the 1960s. their signature sound of clear harmony singing and jangling guitars combined well with the sounds of british invaders the beatles & the rolling stones, and they became the pioneers of folk rock, psychedelic rock, raga rock, and country rock.
the recording of the 1968 album >the notorious byrd brothers< in the heyday of the flower power age was nothing less than herculean, disputes over artistic direction & power struggles within the band meant that by the time recording was finished there were only two byrd-members left. the album was a labour of love, though, its more experimental and progressive than their previous works and is considered one of the best albums they made ...

look sharp. kap bambino is a stampeding punk-rock juggernaut,and its hurtling this way. unlike most assaults of lawless rock n roll ideals, its not powered by guitars,or rather any live instruments whatsoever. the empowering eruption of frenzied discordance, space invader sucker-punch beats and caterwauling incantations conjured by the bordeaux duo, caroline martial and orion bouvier, is the result of harnessing the unruly spirit of bands like suicide and nirvana, then feeding it through a tangled web of samplers, synthesisers and software modules. the result is a more immediate, more kinetic and more inspiring show than your likely to witness from any of the baggy-shorted buffoons 2009 tries to throw up as punk-rockers.

last year has been a little more quiet about dem birds but since they landed in their new studio the output is back where it should be. the demand for lovebirds is higher than ever especially after his current deephouse bomb featuring stee downes beautiful vocals on >want you in my soul< (winding road). the honeybadger ep referrs to the most badass animal on this planet. it simply doesnt give a shit about anything. and this is something lovebirds can relate to very well. should we also talk about music? well, maybe … >chasing things< is a deephouse peaktime funkmonster. its full on lovebirds sound - deephouse u can seriously party to and loose your cool. no 808 bassdrums either!! >running backwards< is a slick midtempo rat with some pretty badass drums and a kenny >fuckin< powers bassline that actually deserves the name, bitch! not to mention the heavenly breakdown with some of the smoothest guitars in this universe! last part of this heavy threesome is called >gives a shit< and is a nice oldskool tune with a heavy >let no man put asunder< bassline on top of some moodyman-ish chord stabs … ah, and i think brother marvin made it also on this one!!
