Tandy Love and Mad Smooth

Tandy Love and Mad Smooth (anagrams for Dom Thomas and Andy Votel) the geniuses of Finders Keepers crew......Both music archivists and collectors of old and rare psychedelia, jazz, R&B and rock vinyl. These two have releases under their names but do not live up to the records they used to chop an screw this gem.......All the track titles and the original artists are anagrams as well, to piss us off I think, others would call it art......anyways this is a great edit to listen to any time but I frequent it in the car....Released on the Fat City Recordings outfit, the people who brought you the "Producer" series featuring Low Limit, Mono/Poly, Mike Slott and Dabrye to name a few, this is one of my favorites and a must have for fans of The Gaslamp Killer or old Turkish, Isaeli, English, Korean, French, Spainish or Indian psychedelia and weirdness from the 60's and 70's.......if only I had a 1968 Mustang Fastback GT to listen to these nostalgic edits in I would be set for life on the real......I had thought I already posted this but came to realize I had not so without further ado.......

PANTyRAiD

Marty Party and Ooah's anticipated debut release kind of surprised me.....I thought it was gonna be ALL glitched out wonky bass heavy tunes, not to say there isn't some of that, but overall there are some really good tracks. Some slow melodic dubstepy tracks and others that take a page out of the Glitch Mob playbook......overall a must have for any Glitch Mob or Ooah fan and deifnetely worth the download for the surprisingly coherent and well produced album....

Hudson Mohawke

It took a month or two of searching and digging but I finally found it. Set to be released October 26th, HudMo's Butter is the cleanest and most comprehensive of all HudMo releases, in my opinion. The production is spot on and the tracks, some weak others sick, are arranged and mastered with precision and obvious dedication. I don't undertand the Olivier Daysoul tracks but the Dam-Funk track, of course I love, hes on the vocals, and the Nadsroic track was also featured on her Room Mist EP I posted a few months back. I am happy I was able to find it this early and hope you all will enjoy it as much as I do.....classic HudMo with better production quality but new sounds and landscapes......

Georgia Anne Muldrow

The newest album from the princess of soul Georgia Anne Muldrow......Though not the Stones Throw release, which I unfortunately cannot find, Georgia Anne has solidfied her space in history as the first female act signed to the label which saw her "Olesi" release. She is quite a busy lady running her own record label, ePistrophik Peach Sound, with long time collaborator Dudley Perkins (Declaime) and producing all of its modern soul, funk and hip-hop staples. She has been featured on the albums of such artists as DJ Mitsu, Erykah Badu, Eagle Nebula, Stacy Epps, Oddisee and even produced the transcendent ballad, Roses, on Mos Def's newest album The Ecstatic. I have been meaning to post this for awhile but considering my recent obsession with everything funk and soul seems appropriate now....

Wavelength

You might be wondering why there is a picture of Dam-Funk under a post entitled Wavelength......well thats because Wavelength is Dam-Funk and Dam-Funk is Wavelength......I have done some investigating and found that this moniker is quite mysterious and seems to be the only other name he operates under......This is the only release under this title that I know of I encourage anyone to let me know if there are any others but as always I feel I am quite alone on this blog so I am not gonna hold my breathe......

The Gaslamp Killer

This, and My Troubled Mind EP, are my favorite GLK projects. With vocals by Gonja Sufi, GLK takes his sound to a whole nother level. I listen to this at least once a week if not more definitely on rotation all the time......It was released in 2007 and includes Birthday Music which is on My Troubled Mind EP. I have been wanting to share this for awhile now but have just now got around to it. Another note, the picture above was orignially a well-known Nazi propagandha poster against the United States in the latter part of WWII....you should look up the orignal image and its depiction quite remarkable......

Mary Anne Hobbs

This is the third of Mary Anne Hobbs compilations for Planet Mu records and I MAY go as far to say as its the best but the jury is not in on this one.....Warrior Dubz and Evangeline, the two previous comps, focus more on dark electronic and dubstep sound whereas Wild Angels has more hip-hop, broken beats, future soul and lighter dubstep tunes. As always, the artists selected for the compilations are the who's who of electronic music and frequently appear on her show for BBC Radio 1. This is one compilation not to sleep on and if you can scoop the previous two as well they are just as hot......

NON & Herrmutt Lobby

This was a Japan only release but of course I had to snag it.....anyways NON on the raps Lobby on the production....This album is an eclectic mix of 8-bit beats, funk and flat out old school hip-hop proper. Hits heavy and bumps hard definitely a good listen and all around nice and rare pick up highly recommended for those SamiYam, Quarta 3030 and Dibiase fans. Though American most of both of their releases are on European and Japanese outfits leading to remixes by both Rustie and HudMo......
