Blah Blah Blah

Two posts in one today, to make up for a week long absence of illegally distributed music via our ragged looking blogspot page, both with circa 1983 London theme, one from me and another from Tom Thump, perhaps the first rare groove DJ I ever heard after first moving to San Francisco a long time ago. I made contact with him whilst searching for a mixtape of his that I used to play on repeat during my train ride into work around the turn of the millennium, he graciously dug into his archive and hooked me up, as well as agreeing to to grace us with a guest mix. My contribution today is a one off dance cut by Antiguan expat Wendell 'Del' Richardson, better known as the guitarist in London based Afro Pop band Osibisa.

Dutch latin meisters Brian Chundro & Santos are anxiously anticipating the 2012 summer season to spread their summer flavoured tunes amongst the masses. The duo earned their moment in the spotlight by releasing big tunes such as their remix for Tiko’s Groove Me Faz Amar – which landed in the top of various charts for weeks -, their singles Nos Que Nos and Dance With Me, and a series of amazing mash ups and booty’s. Best known for their pumpin feel-good sunshine drenched releases, Brian Chundro & Santos feel the need to share their passion with all of you latin house aficionados. After their much sought after Elegibo edit, which was given away as a freebee, history repeats itself while Brian Chundro & Santos now present another amazing edit as a free download. Their City Of God edit, already creating massive Youtube buzz, is now available, grab it! http://beatjunks.com/

Disturbed Beats

http://disturbedbeats.blogspot.com/ Featuring the demented yet soulful vocal hook of Mason's own Coen Berrier and an irrestistable groovy main riff, 'Superimposer' makes for a sweet seventeeth release for Animal Language. Remixes of 'Superimposer' come from a heavyweight collective including Harvard Bass with a typically squelchy interpretation and Zombie Disco Squad with a stripped down and dirty depth charge of a mix. Animal Language favourites, Arveene & Misk surpass themselves with some clever cut 'n' paste work of the main ingredients coupled with a heavy groove and a few extra wraps worth of energy. Glasgow's Polymath takes things into hands in the air territory with a mix combining some funk assed-breaks, a huge metallic bassline and some utter bonkersness. Last but never least comes the Refurb, as usual proving some light relief in taking the original into a completely non dance stylee.
It's clear that this man doesn't take himself too seriously (you need only look at his press shots!) but it's clear his music does. Damn Horns sprung to light for me via Mr No Hands Life Support Machine Blog .
