VS 2013: Twenty Thirteen: Fear, Uncertainty, Disco

Posted on: 16-12-2013

9246624311_65294cf9e0_b (1)

Twenty thirteen, all secrets and spying, disco and dancing. We begin with new work by cellist Oliver Coates, the PRAH label’s debut release. Don’t be fooled, it starts quiet but does’t stay that way for long. The Knife put on one of the most baffling shows of the year (imagine, “and now, the solid gold dancers!”) and Shaking the Habitual is difficult, dark listening. But these are strange times, and the percussion on Wrap Your Arms Around Me could be the best of any track this year. Burial brings up the atmosphere on Hiders, released just in time to make the best of. Just because you’re paranoid, doesn’t mean they’re not out to get you. But it’s probably just too much Grand Theft Auto V – Age of Consent’s thumping track comes from the in-game soundtrack. The excellently named Big Data explore the repercussions of their name and Facebook’s privacy policies in a cautionary take about sharing too much online in Dangerous. Autre Ne Veut escalates the emotion on the followup to his debut, Anxiety, on Counting.

Ethereal, lush Woman is best not attempted anytime soon at karaoke, and is followed up by Goodnight from what must be the most anticipated not-yet-announced album, from Philip Owusu. Bringing the tempo back up, it’s time to dance without intention thanks to Holy Ghost! “Put it off, and wait for another day” Well alright, then. Put it off is just what I’ve been doing with my running regimen which has turned to dust, but earlier in the year Disclosure provided the regular soundtrack with Defeated No More battling with Help Me Lose My Mind for favourite track. Lusine cover Electronic’s Get the Message followed by one of DJ Ringfinger’s favourites, Public Service Broadcasting, taking their samples from Prelinger films. A joyful evening was had by many of us this year at Punchdrunk Theatre’s The Drowned Man in London, Melt Yourself Down’s track We Are Enough soundtracks the finale wrapping up 3 hours of dance, doom, running after actors, and trying to work out what just happened, really. If nothing makes sense anymore, then it makes perfect sense for Arcade Fire to ask, “Do you like rock n’ roll music? Cuz I don’t know if I do…”

Another of DJ Ringfinger’s votes for Low leads off a trio of women. Carla Morrison is a rising star in Mexico, a special edition of Dejenme Llorar was released this year. Through her I fell into alt.latino music in a big way this year. On the more electronic end, Juana Molina returns with a swooning, huge new album.

After Unknown Mortal Orchestra, a tune from my album of the year: Serengeti’s Kenny Dennis LP. Kenny Dennis is a character-based concept album. Kenny being a Chicago-based rapper from the outfit Grim Teachers. He raps a lot about nutrition, getting lost, 5K challenges, and directions to Reno. In between, we’re introduced to stories about KD’s time on Powerball (“crush Nitro to the wall”), his protege Anders, wife Jules, and the Sharper Image on Michigan Avenue. “This will make sure that you don’t suggest to the KD’s he should grow greens instead of crunching out MC’s!” It’s a bit daft, but it makes me smile a whole lot, and rewards repeat listens of which there have been many for me this year.

Twenty thirteen’s headlines of fear, uncertainty and doubt can be found throughout a number of these cuts from Big Data to The Knife, but hey, if we’re going to go out with everything laid bare, we may as well go out dancing with a more upbeat take than ever take on the year that was – Janelle Monae implores us to dance towards the apocalypse before we wrap it all up with a song that you can’t help but move your feet to, Happy.

Until next year!

WHATYOUWANT RADIOSHOW#60

Posted on: 30-11-2013

More of the good 2013 stuff for you this time out in show 60 (60!). I’ve been waiting months for the new EP from Eska who you might recognise from Cinematic Orchestra releases, amongst other magic tunes. Gatekeeper is a kinda hoe-down with whistling, but it sounds way better than that description for sure.

Some Bandcamp goodness follows – K-Def extending David Axelrod’s ‘Holy Thursday’ and ClassicBeatz giving us a fine groover called ‘1975’. His LP, Rumours of Royalty, comes highly recommended. After that it’s something from 2011 by the Tokyo-based Sapphire Slows. Track is called ‘Spin Lights Over You’ and she has a new lp out now which I’ll be checking soon…

Two good ‘uns next – something new and different from Clara Hill from a really interesting LP she’s just put out on Tapeta. Very different from her Sonar Kollectiv work. After that the wonderful ‘White Cherry’ by Laura Viers – a nice shuffler.

Prince gives us new track shared via Twitter (he’s taken to it like a purple duck to water) called Da Bourgeoisie – go get via the link on wwyradio.com, it’s free!

And then a mix. A mix! Recorded live at Foots Café in The Hague at Beat Special 2, this is an hour of power with the funk, the soul and the 80s in one special package. Expect tracks from Yesterday’s Folks, Peggy Lee, Carolyn Franklin, Quannum, Janet Jackson and Alexander O’Neal, Cameo, A Tribe Called Quest, and, yes, Prince.

To finish, something off the ace Blood Orange album (‘Uncle Ace’) and then three edits from the fantastic Basic Fingers label – enjoy them all I dare you.

Next time out – best of 2013! My how quickly the year has gone.

VS2013 Show #4 – The correct use of shovels

Posted on: 27-11-2013

DSCN0564

It is tradition, at this time of the year to wish others well, to celebrate the success and ponder the failures of yet another year in our lives.  To share gifts, to kiss under the mistletoe and to have sex with Santa.  So this year, we took turns to give Santa the present he so richly deserves.  For Kurac it was a quasi-mystical experience, reminding him of his short, passionate love affair with David Crosby in the summer of 81.  Well, the beard rash was the real reminder.  Ringfinger, well he has always had bad memories of Christmas past.  This just added another to giant, growing catalogue that one day will help Dr Bob, the VS psychiatrist retire disgracefully to Vegas where Kitty the roulette dealer is waiting to fleece him.  You see, everyone we touch has gold waiting over the brown rainbow.  And SCSI-b, well she would not partake in this kind of abject puerile nonsense.  God for her puritan soul we say.  So onto the music…


SCSI-b and Ringfinger were very taken with punchdrunk’s new production in London called ‘The Drowned Man’.  It was an entirely discontinuous and dense immersive theatre production littered with cool sounds.  Here are three.  Firstly we have The Bootleggers from the Lawless soundtrack featuring Nick Cave and Burnin Hell. Next up is the amazing Shangri-Las, inaccurately only ever remembered for Leader of the Pack, but this amazing song actually came one single before that hit in 1964 (and went to #5).  Apparently, the original version is over 7 minutes long, unheard of in this era of the 7″ single.  Finally, April March with her cover of the France Gall ye-ye classic ‘Chick Habit – original version called Lasse Tomber les Filles’


Next we move onto the Kurac Collection.  He is the owner of the worlds largest collection of plush, puppet, animated, marionette and simply creepy Christian doll pop.  There is no one who can beat his collection.  I know, I was with him when we picked up the crowning glory of his collection at Boxhanger Platz market in Berlin – The prototype Little Marcy. E mail me for pictures.  Bernie the Billy Goat sings ‘Love is the reason’.  I have no idea why. Or How.  Charlie the Hamster sings Bible Stories came out in 1973 and features this little piece of Jesus Loving Chipmunkxploitation (More to come on this term later) and finally we get Little Marcy.  Oh where do we start.  She’s a doll. A real doll.  Who sings.  About Jesus, the devil and her little pussy.  We are not kidding.  Google it boys and girls.  This time she sings Devil, Devil, Go away.

lou_reedimages (4)

Next we pay tribute to the late great Lou Reed.  I ain’t going to make jokes, not even about Master Ren.  So we have Yugoslav new wave legends Elektricni Orgazm doing ‘I’m waiting for the man’ from their Les Chansones Populaires in 1983.  Then there is probably one of the most inappropriate cover versions ever committed to vinyl, and that is Rolf Harris taking a walk on the wild side and finally a cover that deserves and the mighty Galaxie 500 doing ‘Here she comes now’.  Hearing Dean Wareham do this in London a few years back was existential at best.

 

Yup, we begged him not to, but he insisted.  We called the lawyers. We asked for those cease and desist letters that ungrateful studios send to fans when they are trying to get people to read their slash fantasies between Peter Griffin and a giant chicken.  But we could not stop him.  DJ Ringfinger is back with a track called ‘Popular uses for a shovel’ mixing some post slowcore with amateur poetry record at SUNY in new York in 1976 (two poems by Bill Herilhy).  You can find the entire tape find here.

We abruptly end the sad life of Alvin, Simon and Theodore as they equally and quite inappropriately sing Walk on the Wild Side, with no amended lyrics.  yes, Chipmunks singing about giving head, and yes, its real, it’s from a K-Tel record called ‘Chipmunk Punk’.  After the gunshots we move to some Chipmunkxploitation.  Yes, it’s a real word, only those bastards at the so-called Oxford ‘English’ dictionary won’t recognise it. Featuring Chipmunks, hamsters, squirrels, whatever form of acorn filled cheek puffing furry creatures you could speed up human voices to imitate, they found ’em.  Here are two such beasts, Squirrely and Shirley from 1976 and The Nutty Squirrels from 1959.  These bookend the actual Chipmucks doing a cover Devo’s Whip it.  I think both SCSI-b and I are a little worried at the Kurac obsession with this.  You should see his Christmas list.  Oh Lord, Santa might blush.

20334703-funny-chipmunk-with-straw-hat-and-shovel-farmer-concept
Two tracks that are related only by the fact that Ringfinger found them in a record store on Sunday when he should have been hanging with the in-laws.  A man has to know his priorities.  The first is German maestro James Last covering Colored Spade from Hair.  F-U.N.K-Y.  The next is psych dude band ‘The Dave Pike Set’ and the heavy as funk cover of the James Brown’s ‘Got the Feelin’.  Both of these tracks will be heard at our final Beat Special for the year, Saturday 14th December at Foots Muziekcafe in the Hague.  Be there for crazy visuals, dirty great stinking beats and two of us plus our dear WYW radio friend DJ Mr Six.

 

Let’s finish off the set with two more songs featured in the Drowning Man.  From the soundtrack of Twin Peaks – Fire Walk with Me is the amazing ‘The Pink Room’ and finally we rock out with  Melt yourself down and their track ‘We are enough’.  This amazing track was released through Bandcamp this year and you can get it for yourself at this link.

 

Well, there you have it, another show, another year, half of what we did last year.  Yes, we are slowing down in our old age.  But will be back with SCSI-b and her wrap up of 2013 and then again next year with more vinyl madness, more weird shit and more warped and cracked music, and don’t forget, on Christmas day, be kind to your fellow man (woman or Billy goat) and stick a 12″ up yo….

Burnin’ Hell – The Bootleggers (featuring Nick Cave)
Remember (Walking in the Sand) – The Shangri-Las
Chick Habit – April March
Love is the Reason – Bernie the Billy Goat
Books of the new testament – Charlie the Hamster
I’m waiting for my man – Elektricni Orgazm
Walk on the Wild Side – Rolf Harris
Here she comes – Galaxie 500
Popular uses for a shovel – A sad waltz in d-minor
Walk on the Wild Side – a life cut short – The Chipmunks
Hey Shirley – Shirley and Squirelly
Whip It – The Chipmunks

ADTRAX 40 – Sufferin’ Succotash

New Robert Glasper album this month, it’s a bit hit and miss as with most of the Experiment studio records, but there are a couple of blinders including the joyous ‘I Stand Alone’ which manages to be mighty mighty despite Common’s usual lazy lyricism. Good job that dude has cadence super powers.

Big month for quality Hip Hop Albums. So many more incredible producers out there compared to rappers at the moment, too much throw away content and not enough realness. Thankfully though, no need to aim the vicious teeth of that particular bug bear in the direction of Jonwayne whose ‘Rap Album One’ is chock full of belters. Also this month some funny ass story-telling courtesy of Verb T and Quelle Chris and a-brace-yourself biggun from Cise Star & Blu who go nuts deep over some ridiculously mournful last post beat by P.R.

Last 31 days at adtrax HQ has been one epic rewind session on the new Spacedtime album ‘Spaces’. There are two tracks here, showcasing the dude’s ridiculous feel for genre-splicing. Heavy, raw, emotional electronic business, no doubt but fk me if I didn’t have a right old footwork session to it in my lounge last week. Legendary East Anglian rididims!

Slow dance section is out of control this time around – with new music from Dornik, Long Arm, Anthony Hamilton and the Benny Tones, even Om Unit has enlisted the mighty Jinadu from Beauty Room to add some introspection to his drum weight.

Basically it’s all bumper no filler culminating in the Kodak Cameo/Saint Pepsi edit which sounds like Twilight Sparkle (from My Little Pony crew) playing out at Fabric. Impossible to ward off of the tune though, believe me I’ve tried a trance exorcism. No luck – Reverend Hucklebuck left mine covered in glitter on the Friendship Express Train.

Best of 2013 coming soon, plus couple of special shows and rumour has it Six and I might actually get time to do a sequel to the now mythical ‘No one beats Vitas Gerulaitis 17 times’ Mixtape for WYWRadio.

S’it Peace

Duchamp

Saint Pepsi – Unhappy (Kodak Cameo edit)

WHATYOUWANT RADIOSHOW#59

Posted on: 09-11-2013

New stuff galore this time out with a hefty side order of old and obscure. There’s a real ton of great tunes out there at the moment, plenty of which didn’t make it into this show – am hoping to get another show in before the best of 2013 which this year should be quite a strong one…

Kicking off with the mighty team-up of the Kronos Quartet and TV on the Radio – their cover of Fela’s Sorrow Tears and Blood is just fantastic. Comes from the tribute compilation Red Hot and Fela which has other great tracks too. Following that with Donovan (!) and then something off the great new Jonathan Wilson LP – this one’s Fazon and the whole record is well worth getting if you like the guitar/west coast combo. Or if you like Steely Dan.

Rae and Christian have returned after a long time away with a new album ‘Mercury Rising’ and here you’ve got what I think is the best track – ‘1975’. Also back is The Field with a new album which does exactly what you want from a new album by the Field. I would recommend listening to it while travelling – perhaps sitting in a window seat on a train would be best.

Soul 223 give us some nice beats for our ears, then we take a journey through a history of a sample – the killer break from 24 Carat Black’s 1973 track ‘Ghetto: Misfortune’s Wealth’ which has just popped up again on the nice new EP by the Blaxploited Orchestra. In between the old and the new I’ve sandwiched the mighty Young Disciples’ use of the break in their 1992 track ‘Step Right On (Dub)’. If you don’t own the Young Disciples only album ‘Road to Freedom’ then I believe you should leave your house this instant and find a copy.

Quieter next with something ‘Bizarre’ from Perera Elsewhere, and then the brilliant Matthew E.White returns with a new EP called Outer Face. Kwes wraps up this section with a track off his debut album – called ‘ B_shf_l’.

Second half of the show takes it up a little – crazy French cosmic disco from the 70s by Universal Energy, two new ones on 100% Silk, one by Policy and the other by Les Level. That track follows one for Stu Flower – William S which is taken from the mammoth 50 track strong compilation of Acid House by Terry Farley which came out recently on Demon. God that is worth getting, and WYWRadio has been remiss for not playing you more tracks off it. Go get (remember, the links to buy all of these tunes are on the website).

Dotted around in between these tracks you’ve got beats and business from Maribou State and the garage-y Art of Tones, plus Space Ranger and something off the new Cut Copy album which must have been recorded in 1991 surely?

To finish, two for Lou. Bon Voyage Mr. Reed!

Beat Special #2 – Beat Again

WHATYOUWANT RADIOSHOW#58

Posted on: 06-10-2013

Lots of lots of new stuff, plenty of old stuff, all good stuff. WYWR 58 kicks off with probably the best track off the new Janelle Monae lp and y’all can get ‘Dance Apocalyptic’ as much as you want. Album is definitely worth a listen, I’m just trying to find time to really wallow in it – the last one was so good for me this one is going to have to work to make the grade.

The new Stepkids LP, on the other hand, is more immediate and bursting with gems. For you, ‘Sweet Salvation’. That’s followed by what I understand (from 14tracks.com) is a good example of hypnagogic pop – ‘Tell Her’ by Obey City. A nice EP from them (check 14tracks for more insane compilations).

I had to put the other track by Theo Parrish and Tony Allen’s supergroup on this show, you had another one on the last show. This time ‘Feel Loved’ and hell is it good. Roll on an album.

Numero Group have come good AGAIN with their new Forte Records compilation. Three for you from that – The Fabulous Rhythm Makers, Marva Whitney (hell that’s a tune, ‘Daddy Don’t Know About Sugar Bear’) and Gene Williams. Go get on vinyl or MP3 using the links in the tracklist.

A 30 minute mix next, culled form the 3 hours of fun we had down at Café Foots last weekend. Biggup to VS Radio for all the good stuff, hope you can hear we were bringing some 60s beats to the game. In the mix: Mandingo, Certain Lions and Tigers, stuff off the Hanged Man soundtrack, Soul Makossa and more.

Pastoral time next, kick back, relax! New King Krule (a helluva voice), Brendan Canning, Stumbleine and Califone, old Ultramarine and the very 1990-1991 Beloved. Take it easy, WYWRadio commands you.

Into the finishing straight we bring back some beats with the downtempo Dutch Balearica of Flash and the Pan, followed by an edit of Millie Jackson by the consistently good 78 edits. Then two new ones from LTJ/Ivory Boy and something a little faster by the Art of Tones. To conclude: the marvellous return of Zero 7, bringing us perfect Balearic pop for the very very end of the European summer. Can’t wait for that album now…

Enjoy, spread the word, and tune in next time! Click on the tracks below to go somewhere on the interweb to purchase!

Huge collabo from DOOM, Flying Lotus, Earl Sweatshirt and Thundercat. Sick wordplay from Benjamin Earl Turner, Danny Watts and some slurred verbosity from Efer Fly.

WHATYOUWANT RADIOSHOW#57

Posted on: 03-09-2013

Up here in the northern hemisphere summer is kinda beginning to peter out but still the music keeps coming. WYWRadio number 57 for you this month, packed to the gills with the newness and old favourites that should keep you coming back for more…

First up, free mixtape alert! If you haven’t already got the new Jonwayne freeness, go get it now. Taster for you is Numbers on the hoard. Ooh, and a Miley Cyrus namecheck too – topical.

Ta-ku on the guest remix for Oisima next, and then we go back in time with a little Stepney-produced seven by The Dells. Rushhour have put out a great new comp of old Brazlian funk and soul samba stuff which is well worth a look at, and for your pleasure we’ve thrown on Evina’s ‘Espera Pra Ver’. That’s followed by Marie Knight’s ‘That’s no way to Treat a Girl’ which I understand is one of Norman Jay’s Good Times favourites. WYWRadio likes too.

Then it’s 2013 action from Fatima – that’s gonna be a helluva album when it drops but for now we have a track off the latest twelve, a track called ‘Technology’. Also new, and rather marvellous, is the title track off the new Shigeto album on Ghostly International – if you like your soul instrumental and electronic, this LP is for you.

More recent pickings from everyone’s favourite librarian, Ernest Greene, with something off of the new Washed Out record, track is called ‘All Over Now’. After that we get into the mix – old and new disco re-rubs, originals and edits – about an hour of power courtesy of Rayko, 78 Edits, Get Down Edits, Geraldine Hunt, Kon (two tracks – the new lp of originals is excellent, get it on BBE!), Marvin and Guy, MermaidS and the latest track from Max Essa. Get your shake on.

Theo Parrish has one hell of a team on his latest project – Tony Allen (Fela Kuti’s drummer and the inventor of that Afrobeat shuffle you know and love), Andrew Ashong (who’s already put out one of the songs of the year, ‘Flowers’, and Eska who sings with the Cinematic Orchestra and who has kept us waiting toooooo long for her debut album. Bring it soon!

Then the final straight. Two sevens I icked up in Sounds of the Universe that came from the ‘Balearic Classics’ box – The Peppers and Linx, then a bona fide Balearic classic from Carly Simon (Nile Rogers produced, of course) and then Kon’s latest remix of the classic ‘Joyous’ track by Pleasure.

To finish: A David Bowie delicacy from just after Ziggy Stardust. Head to a field and act like a hippie!

VS 1984 – Revenge of the Nerds

Posted on: 26-08-2013

1984. What a magical year. Kurac opened the batting for Australia against a depleted Indian side celebrating the Golden Jubilee of the Ranji Trophy. SCSI was apparently listening to hours of Dutch Happy hardcore and Ringfinger, well, to be fair to him, much of those days are still covered by the Official Secrets Act, the Spies Like Us Act and a pinkie swear with all the girls from Omega Moo. Basically SCSI called a VS meeting (there were sticky buns, large mugs of tea and somewhat randomly, the stuffed and mounted carcass of a dead magpie) and told us that we were going to do a themed 1984 special, and proceeded to give us hundreds of tracks that had nothing to do with 1984. So we hatched plans around songs that lasted 1984 seconds, or songs about 1984, or the bleeding obvious covering George Orwell’s movie with the soundtrack by Eurythmics. Instead, we just got bored and picked songs released in or around the year 1984.

Picture-25

Let’s start with a newly discovered eighties masterpiece by DJ Ringfinger (under the guise ‘a sad waltz in d-minor’). Released in 1984 this track features the vocal work of budding young representative Ron Paul predicting the age of government spying and political surveillance. Nah, will never happen. This is followed by Giorgio Moroder with a short vocal interjection from Limahl and the instrumental version of the titles track from ‘The Neverending Story’, the story of a boy and his huge giant white monster. This is backed by the Video Kids and the extended remix of Woodpeckers from Space. Would you believe this was a Dutch track? There was also a South African cover version.

Thierry Romain was a child star in his native France. This track ‘Quand il Chantait’ (translates as ‘When he sang’) was his one and only hit. He has since retired back to Nice and is an opera singer apparently. Lyrical samples include ‘…”Love is a bunch of violets, tonight pluck, pluck these flowers because deep in my soul There is a woman It is you who will always be my only love’. Probably better in French. Next from Eurovision 1984 we bring the might that was Yugoslavia’s entry, helmed by Vlado and Isolda, singing in Yugoslav and sing titled in Italian. The duo was comprised in some way Euro way of people called Vlado Kalember and Izolda Barudžija. According to our extensive research (Wikipedia), the video for Ciao Amore was not shown on Turkish state television because Barudžija appeared bathing topless. Finally in this little triple, we stay in the Balkans and deliver Denis & Denis and their paen to the computer ‘Program tvog kompjutera’ (translates as Program your computer). Would you believe these Rijeka based musicians have reformed and have a new record out.

Onto SCSI-b and her choices. Sledgehammer was a ubiquitous track in 1984 and Peter Gabriel owned the planet. This is the 12” remix of the track, which of course complied with most of the important conditions of an eighties remix, a simplified drum beat, some repeated vocal phrases, some pitch shifting and a 6-7 min run-time. Kick the habit. Next is Perth band, Eurogliders and their huge Aussie hit Heaven (must be there) from the ‘This Island’ record. This song enjoyed marginal success outside of Australia with the song released several months later in North America, peaking at #47 in Canada, and at #65 on the US Billboard Hot 100 chart.

telex

Back to Belgium and new wave legends Telex. Trivia about Telex, they were selected to appear at Eurovision for Belgium. The lead singer of the band Marc Moulin noted ‘…We had hoped to finish last, but Portugal decided otherwise. We got ten points from them and finished on the 19th spot.’ Sandie Shaw started her comeback in 1984 with the help of Morrissey and Johnny Marr who offered ‘Hand in love’ for her to record, which she did admirably. Next we skip back across the Channel into Germany and the global smash that was 99 luftballoons (btw, Nena was the name of the band, not the singer, she was called Gabriele Kerner! Other fact, the English version 99 red balloons was a completely rewritten lyric).

Let’s take this mother home! Bobby Orlando and his track ‘German Girl’ is a slide of Euro disco. Shalamar hits the title track from the Joyce Hyser vehicle ‘Just one of the guys’. Joyce who you say? People, get with the programme. She made, umm, well, a few movies, but Just One of the Guys was the most popular. Plot: Hot girl, didn’t get summer job due to sexism, goes to new school as a boy, falls in love, gets found out etc. Then we get The Rubinoos and their early version of sampling classic title track ‘Revenge of the Nerds’ (did you know there is a connection between Revenge of the Nerds and West Wing, with numerous cast cross-overs)

And in the end, we get a Prince track released in 1984 redone as part of the Romeo and Juliet soundtrack. Quindon Tarver apparently auditioned for American idol in season 7 and got eliminated at the Hollywood rounds. Well, that as they say is that. We actually have more than enough material for a part two of 1984. If you ask nicely, we might release on the world more bad Eurovision, eurodisco, Aussie and Kurac’s descent in clap percussion madness.

A sad waltz in d-minor – Perfect prediction
Giorgio Moroder and Limahl – Neverending Story (instrumental)
Video Kids – Woodpeckers from Space (extended mix)
Thierry Romain – Quand il Chantait
Vlado and Isolda – Ciao Amore
Denis & Denis – Program tvog kompjutera
Peter Gabriel – Sledgehammer
Eurogliders – Heaven (must be there)
Telex – l’amour toujours
Sandie Shaw – Hand in Glove
Nena – 99 Luftballoons
Bobby Orlando – German Girl
Shalamar – Just one of the guys
The Rubinoos – Revenge of the Nerds
Quinden Tarver- When Doves Cry

Adtrax37 bringing you a 32 course meal of nouvelle brainfood cooked up by some Michelin star silence garnishers

Kicking things orf this calendar month with the rather huge Regbeatz James Brown rework that’s rightly causing a commotion on Soundcloud. Some more trap-stepery after that from Pyramid Juke complete with requisite gunshots, ammo clip insertions and airhorn punctuation.

Chk chk blam

Serious month for a rapgame comeback this month – tons of stuff out with that rarified combo of sick production and quality wordsmithing.
There’s two from Jeremiah ‘just signed to Warp’ Jae’s ‘Bad Jokes’ mixtape, two from EL-P and Killer Mike’s Fan’ Dam’ like ‘Run The Jewels’ project and two from the mighty Jonwayne’s ‘Marion Morrison Cassette’. All three of those are freebies, so check the links below. There’s also a new album from Lord Byron which is v dope and has a bunch of tracks produced by one of my absolute favourite young producers of the mo called Brrd. New Homeboy Sandman? New Danny Watts? Good dookie rope month people.

To counterbalance the explosive verbiage of all that cypher, some very pleasant things to sway your skeleton around to – biggun in a Sampha vein from Lil Silva, bonus track off the Atu album, brand new Stumbleine and some Cinematic Orchestra-family-tree, strings n drums goodness from Hidden Element.

What else? Couple of D’angelo tributes from Swarvy and the sick Bembe Segue ‘Demo’ album. Couple of beautiful guitar wonkbap workouts from Mike Gao and Go Yama plus a remix of ‘Can You Feel It’! very brave/high? but pulled out of the bag by Jakobin & Domino, as well some Galactic Sambatek from Kirk Degeorgio.

WYWRadio returns laden with recent releases and masterpiece blueprints. Two tracks from the new Ta-Ku LP to start, the man knows his beats and stuff, and also his samples. That’s Idris Muhammad there at the start and the LP also contains a loop of a pretty fine Roberta Flack slowie, co-written by (get this!) Curtis Mayfield, Donny Hathaway and Leroy Hutson. Take that! In honour I dug out the original (‘Gone Away’) and also another track that utilises the same sort of bass break – this time Donny alone on ‘ I Believe to My Soul’ from the excellent LP ‘Everything is Everything’. A must-own soul record.

Soul brings us to jazz and we work it out with Horace Silver’s kinda chase themed ‘In Pursuit of the 27th Man’. Following that we get locked into a classic bassline – first courtesy of Cleveland Eaton with a jazzy/funky violin led jam that utilises the same bassline as Papa Was a Rollin’ Stone by the mighty Temptations. WWYR is a huge fan of Norman Whitfield and this one gets going over 11 or two minutes. Now try getting that bassline out of your head why don’t ya.

The mid-section of the show is all about the ambience this week, kicking off with something off the new Originals Vol 7 comp put together by Rong Music, the track is ‘Transmitter’ by Spacetime Continuum and that gets fed into an old favourite, Arcadian’s ‘Link’. More techno from the more ambient side of the tracks follows – new releases from Erdbeerschnitzel, Fort Romeau, Lone, and Ireland’s John Daly.

The Floorplan album is a monster. Heads down, feet marching, hands in the air!

Once we’ve got Robert Hood out of our system it’s one of my favourite tunes of the year next. I’ve not played anything off the new Thundercat album so it’s time to remedy – ‘Oh Sheit it’s X’ is a marvellous night on ecstasy, by all accounts, including the mistaking of a leather jacket for a suede one. Drugs eh?

Another from the originals comp from Donna McGhee and then the Beautiful Swimmers whose new LP is another summer highlight. Tiger and Woods continue to throw jacked up sliced big room numbers at us and ‘Bash at Jack’s is off their new 12. It takes us a little closer to the disco end of things with the Sunburst Band utilising Ahmad Jamal to take us ‘Far Beyond’ and then Giant Cuts give us more boogie bassline action. Jorge Ben gives us some Brazilian Balearic to ice that cake.

And we finish as we began – Ta-Ku uses Idris, WYWR brings you the full deal – the legend that is ‘Could Heaven Ever be Like This’. How marvellous!

Adtrax 37 o’clock.

This is what happens when a show get’s made entirely in sunshine. By eck it’s a perky one (comparatively) with some big park/roller skating/getting burnt joints including the grand new one from Lone, a freedbie from Esta, one of a posse of Soundcloud beatsmiths venturing into house territory, big tunes from Luminaire and Leon Vynehall and the biggest of the bigguns : you heard it on Six’s WYWR last month – the sweaty back inducing powerchords of Todd Terje’s ‘Strandbar’ instant classic.

New music from the uber talented Soia, plus deepest innvovations from Watersports, Mndsgn, and Shigeto plus, of course, beats and rhymes from Yassin Bey, Khyro and Flandy, to bang hard from your row boat, yacht or dinghy this weekend.

Couple of tracks won’t fit on the links below, tag these on the end:
Ghost McGrady – 198X

Hourglass Sea – Boulevard

Letherette – After Dawn (Bibio Remix)

Until next month, keep it crispy

Waaaaay overdue. WYWRadio is back though, and bringing many mighty tunes with it. All sorts of life seems to have gotten in the way in recent weeks, not least the Good Taste Summer Club party in Copenhagen last weekend – large shouts to Mikkel, Julie and Niels for organising, Achim Mertz and A Duck for the live sets and Duchamp AKA Ad Trax and RSS Disco for supplying plentiful aural wonders. A 6am finish ain’t bad methinks.

Anyway, the show. Peshay returns, he’s been doing a few one off tracks of the non D&B variety recently and ‘Daydreaming’ is on of them now available on Bandcamp. He sets off a summer vibe which is followed with tracks form Get Down Edits, Daniel Crawford remixing the King of Pop and the brothers Jackson, the flute-led Soul II Soul blueprint that is the Pied Piper of Funkingham, and then something from the new Tall Black Guy lp 8 Miles to Moenart. Bilal comes good with a winning hand next (get the album on BBE if you like, it’s got plenty of good and is a grower) and then a short bit from the most recent Jesse Futerman release the intriguingly-titled ‘Don’t Grecko Your Brother’ (is it wrestling related?)/

Short Circles has a new album out soon on Plug Research and there’s a free release floating around ahead of it – we’re playing the Aneon Remix of ‘On My Mind’. After that – Indie! A lot of good releases now emerging as the year moves on and WYWR is giving you Laura Marling, The National, Wampire, Mikkel Cronin and the blues-y Valerie June. All good.

Then we go Balearic with an edit of ‘Where Are You Now’. I recently got hold of the Wolfgang Maus album ‘Children of the Universe’ and have thrown on ‘Testimony’ for your enjoyment (another Balearic classic, apparently), and that’s followed by the centrepiece of the recent Daft Punk album – the rather showtune-y ‘Touch’ with Paul Williams on vocals. Then we get more beaty/housey – the new Max Essa album has some nice tunes on it, as does the remix EP that Linda Mirada has put out. These lead into three in a row on 100% Silk – The Shams, Alex Burkat and Polysick all give a nice head nod to the 90s and make me wonder just how many good records that label has now put out.

To finish: the new singles from Cymbals and then the ever-excellent Todd Terje with ‘Strandbar’. That’s your lot and I’ll try to get the next batch to you a bit quicker. Keep it easy…

VS 2013 Show 2 – George W Bush doesn’t like black people (or Taylor Swift)

Posted on: 18-06-2013

Alright, we know. We have heard loud and clear. You want us back. We have been inundated with an email asking ‘when are you lazy f*$kers making another show?’ We wrote back in abusive tones that it was really ‘none of your fracking business Mr Pope whatyoucallyerself the first’. But for you dear listeners, we are happy to report that we are presenting for duty our second show of the year entitled ‘George W Bush doesn’t like black people (or Taylor Swift)’. What have been up to in the preceding few months? What? Aside from the weeks’ worth of effort it takes to make this masterpiece? Well Ringfinger has been seeking spiritual counsel, trying to find ‘his’ ‘zen space’ whatever the hell that means. We think it is just where he touches his pee-pee. SCSI-b has been learning Dutch in order to complete her lifelong ambition to watch My Kitchen Rules in every Germanic language. Ik hoop dat Jake en Elle verliezen aan het einde van mijn keuken regels. Ze zuigen. Kurac and his tempestuous relationship with Angela Merkel is going very well, thanks for asking.

Onto ‘the business’ as they say nowhere in particular. We start the show with some found spoken word from Canada about a man and his SSS. We think sexy is not one of those words. We have matched this with some classic library sounds from Jack Arel. Next we have a triple play from Kurac who delves deep into his collection of madness and brings you a version of the Beatles classic ‘Come Together’. Sure when you hear the flute you want to run, but wait until the guitar kicks in, it fuzzier than a bear. David McCallum (noted as playing Russian spy Illya Nickovetch Kuryakin in the Man from UNCLE) drops the Batman Theme and finally we get more weirdness through Tripsichord Music Box, a SF based sixties group who were managed by the famous Matthew Katz (who also managed Jefferson Airplane, Moby Grape et al).

A couple of track we found at Sister Ray in London. For some reason they had a huge box of Italian sixties and seventies juke box singles and we bought, well, a few to be honest. Here are two, one from Quelli, a great sixties Italian beat band doing their version of Michel Polnareff’s La Poupée Qui Fait Non in Italian. We then get French great Nino Ferrer doing ‘Re di Cuori’ which apparently translates at the ‘King of Hearts’ from 1970. To wrap that break up, Jacques Dutronc. Say no more.  Some rap now people. One the finer exponents of NYC rap is of course French 80s rapper Kari Kollgang throwing down in his rap battle with the harsh insult ‘Solid as a knucklehead’ (it sounds better in French). Up to Kanye to show some school spirit, smack down a president, insult Taylor Swift and then make a collaborative platter with Mr Beyonce. Word. Talulah Gosh were an amazing band out of Oxford, UK. This single released in 1986 was their second offering and was a significant part of the twee-pop movement (factoid – they took their name from an interview in NME with Altered Images singer Clare Grogan – no wonder Kurac likes them). Australian band ‘Even as we Speak’ who released a number of beautiful singles on Sarah Records around the same time bring us their take on the New Order song and finally courtesy of SCSI-b Grimes’ immense Oblivion wraps the set up.Oh people, now you are in for a treat. Sure, we love Five or Six and their cut ‘Another reason’ but really its just foreplay before we get to PETER IVERS. Peter Ivers was a mainstay of our earlier radio show ‘Vinyl Sodomy’, which was broadcast to three cats, a taxi driver named Ahmed and three people dogging in Centennial Park Sydney. Only making a handful of records, Peter Ivers was a singer songwriter and TV performer from Boston. His tragic story came to an end in 1983 when he was found dead in apartment bludgeoned to death with a hammer. No-one has ever been charged. Uplifting, eh? That aside, his records are amazing, expensive and simply worth every penny.  Frank and Daryl Kuntz. Yes that is their real name. From the brilliant ‘Way out Junk’ blog- ‘… If you watched channel 39 out of Dallas, Texas in the early 80′s, you might remember Frank and Darryl Kuntz, the hosts of the kids show “The Good Time Gang”. They’d sing songs, give out prizes to kids at home, and even throw a bit of religion into the mix!’ is the perfect lead into some Dutch beat with ‘Lady Sex’, a song I had going around my head when I watch the ‘Book of Mormon’ but was not in the show and the theme to the Australian youth soap opera ‘Class of ‘74’ by Brian Cadd.This leads us to our last track and the Divinyls with the old Easybeats classic, ‘I’ll Make You Happy’. Lead singer Chrissy Amphlett died this week at age 52. I loved the Divinyls. They made brilliant rock songs, with distinctive vocals and great guitar lines. Their sound track to the Aussie film ‘Monkey Grip’ is great and album after album they dropped lines of classic singles. VS salute you Ms Amphlett. I hope they have plenty of school girl outfits and monitor stacks there.

Salutations. Here’s a concoction of the best of the medicinals I inbibed in the past month.
Included within

New Koreless, apparently he has technical revelations in his sleep, good sign. Don’t expect a roller skating booty shorts and kool aid vibe from ‘Sun’ though, it’s more of – space shuttle full of screaming astronauts being sucked inexorably into a pulsating furnace of nuclear fusion – type affair.

A track from the new Baths LP, out this month on the endlessly brilliant Anticon record label. Really brave and affecting album. You will possibly find a small salty pear shaped joy droplet precipitates from your ear duct pon deep listening when clocking lines like ‘are you maybe here to help me hurt myself’, it’s the phoenix balls.

1 from Thundercat, what can you say bout that dude. Been waiting for this to drop for a wee while especially ‘heartbreaks’, he be the gatekeeper of a wormhole between the 1980s and 2030s.

Biggie from Omar, still staying true to his sound, still sounding fresh though after all these years. Big pimp bassoon.

Another good rap album, uhhuh that’s like two or something this year already! So two tracks from Zeroh, with top production and special guests including Jon Wayne, and Quelle Chris.
‘You mind handing me the beverage all the way to the left’

Couple of tracks with facemelting chords of course, one from the Russian Federation, its where all facemelting chords should emanate from – BMB SpaceKid depressing the keys on that one and warming up for Metome to finish the job and leave your boatrace synthwrecked with just a smile floating in a kind of ooze that looks like a load of melted mentos.

New big remix from Je$u$, a track from a super group consisting of Theo Parrish, Andrew Ashong, Eska and Tony Allen on Theo’s new label Wildheart, new DJ Mitsu, plus tons more.

Full Prescription below:
