that summer i developed somewhat of an obsession with tonto’s expanding head band after having seen them perform at the big chill festival that year. the music blew my mind. later upon my return to civilisation and the ensuing research which then began in earnest i became as much blown away by the enormous t.o.n.t.o. (the original new timbral orchestra) modular synthesizer that had created the music as i was by the music itself. built in the early 70s, it s still the largest synthesizer around today. with the live show still resonating in my head i tracked down everything tonto had ever recorded. one of these tracks was an obscure outtake from the time t.o.n.t.o.’s creators, malcolm cecil and robert margouleff, were producing and engineering for stevie wonder in the ‘70s(https://youtu.be/wuaszff7yq0). the track, bittersweet, only ever appeared on a highly limited self-released cd put together to coincide with their appearance at the big chill. consequently i featured it on a few mixes i did over the years and invariably i’d be asked “what’s that track?” by those with an ear for something unique. and invariably these same people, many of them djs, would turn away disgruntled when i informed them it was cd only. although i didn t know it at the time, the seed was definitely sown for this vinyl compilation that you now hold in your hands.

20 track album from various artists released by dub store records.

part 3 of king jammys dancehall series - hard dancehall murderer 1985-1989. 20 tracks from various artists released by dub store records.

an in-depth look at the 1970s catalogue of the uruguayan label macondo and the roots of subtropical music: bomba, cumbia, guaracha, merengue, porro, plena featuring 21 tracks by essential names such as sonora borinquen, conjunto casino, combo camagüey, sonora cienfuegos, grupo maracaibo, grupo antillano. set up in the port area of montevideo, macondo discos was founded by the chilean entrepreneur luis onel and named after the town from garcía márquez’s fictional universe. in its early days the label produced a catalogue comprising folk, tango, murga and rock. 1975 onwards, after the release of the lps tropical caliente by cienfuegos and exclusivo! by borinquen, marks the golden age of tropical music in our country according to carlos goberna, founder of sonora borinquen. macondo became a veritable tropical music factory in uruguay, amassing together with guacamayo (a sublabel dedicated to new artists) nearly 200 records in its ten years of existence.

the new teenage bad girl album is full of energy and obvious hits such as keep up with you (stardust from the 80 s), the rock-orientated black hole, the electro-break of fight night or the dance-house tonton funk. but there are also the synthetic and melancholic eponymous slow backwash, a minimal discoid ballad like heart zero beating (tangerine dream 2.0) or even the hedonistic and poppy hip-hop tune x-girl, the bandÕs next single.

>my pet gorilla< is jerome sydenhams interpretation of rolling techno thunder. energy, big kicks, fat bass lines and infectious piano chords. what you are left with, is purehands-in-the-air apotek techno. prime time business! >tonto< is a deep techno track with an immense grooveaccompanied by futuristic efx, rhythms, and chords that forcefully exhibit jerome sydenhams consistency and forward thinking yet again. this deeply satisfying modern remedy represents in appropriate doses the meaning of deep tech syndrome for the psyche and the floor. >museum of modern< is a tough and funky and minimal tech- house track. this edgy experience is filled with surprises. the groove gives way to an epic rise that collapses into an unforgettable breakdown. with no empty spaces jerome sydenham pushes the envelope to pumpout this cross genre gem.

excellent indie-electronica !!
