Paris DJs Soundsystem - Who Is Molesting Laura ? (Part 10)
(MP3 Podcast on www.ParisDJs.com) 2009-10-12
Turn on, tune in and drop out with this out-of-ordinary selection of psychedelic covers. Expect musical hallucinations, changes of perception on classic tracks you thought you knew, adventitious synesthesia, an altered state of awareness of pop culture, some mystical rediscovery of your inner well-being, and a bit of slight psychosis concerning this Molesting Laura series and its broad use of music covers. This is heavy shit for the cultural and intellectual elite of Paris DJs' secret order. Is there anybody out there?

Various - Gózalo! Vol.3 - Bugalu Tropical
(2xCD/2xLP 1000 copies limited ed.) Vampisoul VAMPI113CD/VAMPI113, 2009-09-07
Vampisoul presents the third volume in their series of tropical Peruvian music of the 1960s! Compiler Like the previous two volumes, this album captures a little known but dynamic moment in Peru's musical development that allowed the consolidation of new trends oriented towards what would become known by the early 70s as salsa, as well as forging a vibrant scene that incorporated cumbia, latin soul, rock, and jazz funk. Rafael Hurtado de Mendoza brings you a new volume of this exciting, spicy mix of tropical gems that fill in the missing link between the mambo era and the dawn of salsa in South America.

JC Brooks & The Uptown Sound - Beat Of Our Own Drum
(CD Digipac/LP 180g 1000 copies limited ed.) Vampisoul VAMPICD120/VAMPI120, 2009-09-07
Vampisoul is very proud to release Beat Of Our Own Drum, the long-awaited debut album by Chicago's JC Brooks & The Uptown Sound. Described by The New York Times as "neo-soul glory", their sound is an explosive mix of 60s soul passion, the energy of 70s punk and the eclectic spirit of contemporary music.
"Chicago's own JC Brooks & The Uptown Sound is far more than a band lost in nostalgia. Instead, the Uptown Sound covers a diverse range of sounds owing as much to rock and punk as to soul and R&B". Centerstage (Chicago, USA)

Fred Fisher Atalobhor - African Carnival
(2CD three panel digipack/Double heavy vinyl LP) Vampisoul, 2009-04-21
Since 1972 Fisher has recorded albums for EMI and AFROSIA creating and defining his so called "ASOLO ROCK" - a blend of afro Funk-Rock with soulful melodies. This fabulous compilation, African Carnival, takes the best songs from Fred Fisher's albums: Say The Truth (1979), No Way (1981), Wahala Dey For Town (1988) and Ogiza (1990), and comes with liner notes by Nigerian specialist Samuel Kayode.

Victor Olaiya's All Stars Soul International
(CD digipack + 16 page booklet/Heavy vinyl LP gatefold) Vampisoul, 2009-04-21
Victor Olaiya is certainly one of the legendary foundation stones of modern Nigerian music, yet he has never received much acknowlegement or really had his albums released or promoted in any quantity outside of Nigeria. This album from 1970 is from Olaiya's Highlife / Funk phase, but its worth taking a trawl through his back pages to see how he became the Evil Genius, before you roll back the rug and get down with the Highlife-Funk.
