Midwest Funk - Funk 45s From Tornado Alley - 21 Rare And Unreleased Cuts
(Jazzman Ref. JMANCD 007, 2003)

En 2002, les archéologistes Anglais du funk Jazzman nous avaient gratifié d'une compile "Texas funk" préfacée par Dj Shadow, expert en vieux 45 tours de funk forts en breaks et rare groove, indispensable à tout bon collectionneur de funk. Ils reviennent cette année après avoir poussé un peu plus loin leurs recherches avec une compilation "Midwest funk" qui les a vu arpenter toute la région des États-Unis située entre les Rocheuses et les Appalaches, en gros, à la quête de 45 tours, de bandes et surtout des anecdotes et autorisations des ayants droits afin de signer tous ces titres en toute légalité. L'album est disponible en avant-première sur Ebay (pour 100 CDs et autant de vinyles) en attendant la sortie officielle en Mars 2004 prochain!

(CD/LP/Digital) Big Dada Recordings BD193, 2012-02-06

Two years since winning the 2009 Mercury Music Prize for her debut album, Speech Therapy, and having ridden a rollercoaster through life since then, Speech Debelle is ready to drop her second collection of music. Entitled Freedom of Speech, the album sees Speech turning from introspection to stand up, face and engage with the world around her, spitting confident themes of revolution and love. A first taste of the album came in the aftermath of this summer's riots, when Speech reacted immediately, leaking the track Blaze Up A Fire, (also featuring Roots ManuvaRealism), a track about political revolution written months before. Now the build-up begins to the release of Freedom of Speech in early February 2012 with the free download of the track Studio Backpack Rap. From political to musical revolution, Speech describes the track as being "all about virtual instrumentation and an ode to KwesSpeech Therapy, while showcasing just one aspect of her remarkable new album.
