6ix Toys - Sisters Of Soul, Brothers Of Funk
(12") First Word Records FW32, 2009-09-28
Following on from last year's dancefloor favourite Voodoo People, funk sensation 6ix Toys are back with the second single from their eponymous debut album. This time we've enlisted the help of one of our musical heroes, the incredible Greg Wilson. For those who don't know, Greg Wilson is a bona fide legend – one of the UK's pioneering DJs, (he still breaks out the Reel to Reel tapes for his sets), Greg was a resident at Manchester's Hacienda and the Wigan Pier, launching the nascent UK electro scene in the early 1980s. In recent times Greg has become synonymous with his disco re-edits, in the process winning legions of new fans. Greg's applied his magic touch to the album opener Paint The Toon (renamed as 'Sister of Soul, Brothers of Funk') adding wobbling bass and shimmering cymbals to create a discotinged dancefloor belter that's set to be the sound of the summer.

DJ Vadim - U Can't Lurn Imaginashun
(CD) Barely Breaking Even (BBE), 2009-05-11
"If you want to make beautiful music, you must play the black and the white notes together." [Richard M. Nixon]
Not many - if any - musical biographies open with quotations from
Richard M. Nixon. But DJ Vadim, a.k.a. the John Coltrane of hip hop,
ain't exactly your average 'round-the-way' producer. A veteran
traveller and quality purveyor of head-nodding beats, Vadim has 4 solo
albums, 2 group albums (One Self; The Isolationist), a remix album,
countless mix tapes/CDs, EPs, remixes plus a slew of 12s and 7s under
his heavyweight belt. Needless to say, though producer/DJ's these days are a dime-a-dozen, a
veteran like Vadim is not the kind o' cat to release 12 tracks of the
latest in-vogue soul loop. In fact his new album, "U Can't Lurn
Imaginashun" is one of the sickest joints on the block, continuing -
and embellishing - the producer's inventive journey into the realm of
sound. Anyone that knows anything about Vadim knows to expect the
unexpected, and "UCLI" has surprises - and dopeness - in abundance.
