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?

(part 9)
(MP3 Podcast on www.ParisDJs.com) 2009-09-08

I got the Blues so bad... that I wish I was dead was singing Weird Al Yankovic in his Generic Blues. This new mix in the Who Is Molesting Laura selections of covers tries to evoke that feeling for its first half, concluding with a highly emotional stripped down mix of Big Easy from Raphael Saadiq. The second half balances the mood with some more uplifting stuff. Expect rare and unusual reworks. And leave a comment if by any chance you want us to stop Molesting Laura!

Papa said do read up. Martin Perna, founder of the legendary Antibalas, now resides in Nicaragua, and when visiting us this summer in Paris, promised he'd find a way to send a selection of some Afro-Nicaraguan grooves to rock our earplugs. Less than a month my mailbox goes ding dong and soon I'm downloading music with the enthousiasm of a kid opening a christmas present. The package definitively delivers and we'll all be jumping and rocking to the pulse of Afro-Nicaraguan music from Bluefields, Nicaragua! It's music you won't hear on the radio coming from the heart of Central America, but not music you won't find on the internet... thanks to Paris DJs growing family of musicians, producers and DJs from all over the globe!! Martin Perna recently released a fantastic third album from his Afro-Latin project Ocote Soul Sounds and Adrian Quesada (on the Eighteen Street Lounge label) and should be touring in Europe early 2010...

Anyone deeply into old school African music must have already stumbled upon the Jam Magica blog and its growing index of the Orchestre de Poly-Rythmo complete discography. I go there every month at least, and when I saw that Afrofunk collector ZjAk with the help of his friend WaaterproOf had done a one hour Poly-Rythmo mix for Radio Grenouille in Marseilles, I asked them to send us a high-quality version for us to podcast on Paris DJs, the day right before the Paris show. They even re-recorded the mix to insure the best possible quality. It's all rare dusty 45s and old LPs selected and mixed with love, and remastered with care by Grant Phabao of course. Enjoy!

We received many messages of hope that we'd keep on accosting, assailling, abusing, disturbing and more maltreating of our dear Laura. Here's the JAZZ take on the story. If you're into tasty covers of classics, into Jazz or even into Stevie or Sly Stone, you should find the kind of stuff you enjoy, in this soundtrack to the life of a perpetually molested girl!

(part 7)
(MP3 Podcast on www.ParisDJs.com) 2009-08-22

T.I.M.E.C. honchos Grant Phabao and Djouls have recorded at least half a dozen more Molesting Laura episodes for this podcast series of the Paris DJs Soundsystem. This new one is centered around instrumental interpretations of famous hits and classics. Once again, please leave a comment on the the Paris DJs blog if you want us to stop molesting the dear Laura. If on the other hand you enjoy the tasty selection of covers the Paris DJs Soundsystem are gathering every month... Then just leave a message of hope that we'll keep Molesting Laura on and on and on and on (and on)...

Tracklisting :

01. Robert Walter - Rivers of Babylon
(from 'Cure All' album, 2008 / Palmetto Records)
Rare jazz-lounge cover of The Melodians classic.
more info on parisdjs.com

02. Certain Lions and Tigers - Fever
(from 'El Soul Condor' album, 1970 / Polydor)
Fantastic cover of the Little Willie John classic popularized by Peggy Lee, recently reissued on Peter Herbolzheimer's Big Band Man (4xCD boxset).
more info on dustygroove.com

03. Ed Maciel E Sua Orquestra - Les Cornichons
(from 'Na Onda' album, 1966 / London Records)
Organic and brassy cover of Nino Ferrer, if anyone's got the Volumes 4/6/7/8/9/10 or 11 of the Na Onda series from Ed Maciel please share...
more info on loronix.blogspot.com

04. The Howard Roberts Quartet - I Say A Little Prayer
(from 'Out Of Sight' album, 1968 / Capitol)
Cheesy jazz guitar cover of Burt Bacharach and Hal David's classic written for Dionne Warwick, but the album's artwork is lovely and the melody still to die for.
more info on guitarchives.com

05. Shawn Lee's Ping Pong Orchestra - My Favorite Things
(from 'A Very Ping Pong Christmas' album, 2007 / Ubiquity Records)
Richard Rodgers wrote this standard for the 1959 Rodgers and Hammerstein musical The Sound of Music, then Herb Alpert and The Tijuana Brass made a big hit with it in 1968 and the song became a jazz standard for John Coltrane and many others. Shawn Lee's version... well it's Shawn Lee and you should be a fan like we are!
more info on parisdjs.com or on wikipedia.org

06. Ultimate Breaks and Beats - Think(About It)
(James Brown cover, from 'Ultimate Breaks and Beats' album, 2008 / Traffic Entertainment)
The 'instrumental covers of famous breakbeats' concept album doesn't work well over one hour, even with Leon Michels and friends playing, but most tracks picked in there independently are neo-classics just like this James Brown cover so don't even hesitate.
more info on parisdjs.com

07. Hot Fingers Jackson and The Soul Organ-Isation - Ode To Billy Joe
(from 'Hammond Explosion' album, 1968 / Columbia)
One may wonder why Bobby Gentry's original from 1967 became such a huge hit, but won't guess as to why we've chosen this groovy lounge instrumental cover by German organist Dieter Reith (under a pseudonym).
more info on wikipedia.com

08. The Quantic Soul Orchestra - Get A Move On (Alternate Mix)
(from 'Tru Thoughts Covers' compilation, 2009 / Tru Thoughts Recordings)
Once more, this is NOT a Mr Scruff cover since his Get a Move On is really a remix of Moondog's Bird Lament. The Quantic Soul Orchestra alternate take, from Tru Thoughts' recent collection of covers, definitively rocks, though.
more info on parisdjs.com

09. Cookin' On 3 Burners - Cars
(Gary Numan cover, from 'Soul Messin' album, 2009 / Freestyle Records)
The Bamboos's guitarist Lance Ferguson also plays in this Australian hammond trio, steaming funk recordings since 1997. Their cover of Gary Numan's 80s synth-pop hit tears the roof off in style: 21st century caffeine funk, tight like a virgin's ass!
more info on parisdjs.com

10. Dojo Cuts feat. Roxie Ray - Uptight
(Stevie Wonder cover, from 'Dojo Cuts feat. Roxie Ray' album, 2009 / Record Kicks)
We conclude this mix with another Australian funk band and their raw, live and still soulful take on Stevie Wonder's classic.

(MP3 Podcast on www.ParisDJs.com) T.I.M.E.C., 2009-08-20

The Latin scene is vibrant in Europe. Quantic offered at the beginning of the summer a fantastic new album on a Columbian tip. Don't miss his live show with his Combo Barbaro in Paris on September 12 (Le Bataclan). Electic new albums from Black Grass and Dub Pistols are filled with marvels in all styles - latin grooves included. Palov and Mishkin come from Greece and their latest CD has been spinning all summer in our stereos. Skeleton is the new project from Brighton's jazz master Nostalgia 77, rising the bar with each new release. An afro-latin piece will first be available on the upcoming Impossible Ark compilation out early october via Unfold/Tru Thoughts. Spain is here too with an extract from the vibrant Achilifunk remix compilation from Lovemonk records. We'll def play more tracks from this one in the future! More spanish soul jazz vibes from Spain are featured with The Jivers and their swinging song taken from the latest Jazz and Milk Records compilation EP. I've grown to the habit of buying this German label's vinyl release systematically and haven't been disappointed yet. More German latin funkiness comes next from Una Mas Trio and Mo' Horizons, both on the Agogo label, another one to be followed closely. We close the mix as we started it, with an artist from Brighton, Black Grass - his third album is so full of hits I regret buying it on CD only.
...More '21st Century Latin' music to come soon in these pages...

(part 6)
(MP3 Podcast on www.ParisDJs.com) 2009-08-16

This new Molesting Laura episode is clearly aiming for the FUNK, with James, Sly and Stevie covers urging you to shake that ass!
A big thanks to Freestyle Records for releasing so many good records, sending us some promos and letting us play those in our mixes!

We couldn't resist playing the heavy hitter track from the Grits album here, so full of inspiration... The Baker Brothers upcoming collection of covers is quite a treat too and we could have picked many other tracks from their 5th album for this mix. French keyboard maestro Soul Sugar is a friend and collaborator of ours but even if it wasn't the case we would still praise him for his upcoming album Nothing But The Truth which has been spinning an awful lot in our stereo this summer. Deep, soulful and groovy, it should please MANY funk and jazz lovers. Israeli funk band The Apples stormed the dancefloors earlier this year with their fantastic Snap cover, we can't wait for their new album now (the 4th one I think)... And that's only a few cos there are many more new releases to come on the Freestyle label, leading the way for the worldwide deep funk scene these days.

Tracklisting :

01. The Invaders - Big Payback
(from 'Jump Back: Imitations, Interpolations & The Inspiration Of James Brown' compilation, 2008 / Le Smoke Disque)
more info on discogs.com
A James Brown classic covered with a psychedelic funk vibe. Anyone knows when/where this was first released?

02. The Baker Brothers - If You Want Me To Stay
(from 'Avid Sounds' album, 2009 / Freestyle)
more info on parisdjs.com
Superb soulful cover of Sly & The Family Stone by Bournemouth's grooviest funk trio.

03. Peter Herbolzheimer Rhythm Combination & Brass & Inga Rumpf - Superstition
(from 'Hip Walk' album, 1976 / Polydor)
more info on wikipedia.org
Funky fusion cover or Stevie Wonder. Think of Germany in the mid-70s, with a stellar European line-up of musicians...

04. Soul Sugar - Play It Back
(from 'Nothing But The Truth' album, 2009 / Freestyle)
more info on parisdjs.com
A trippy, moody, swampy, soulful, funky and rather amazing cover of Lonnie Smith from France finest' keys/Hammond player. Get the album in September!!

05. The Apples - The Power
(Snap cover, from 'The Power' 12 inch, 2009 / Freestyle)
more info on freestylerecords.co.uk or on myspace.com/theapplesmusic
In your face brassy funk cover of Snap! Another instant classic after their spectacular Rage Against The Machine Rhythm'n'Blues cover.

06. Soopasoul - It's Just Begun
(from 'Twin Stix' album, 2009 / Jalapeno)
more info on soopasoul.com, myspace.com/soopasoul
A heavy Jimmy Castor Bunch cover taken from an album over-filled with funk delights. jalapenorecords.com is now one of the labels to follow with a rooster consisting of Skeewiff, Kraak & Smaak, Smoove & Turrell, Soopasoul, Dr Rubberfunk and Radio Trip!!

07. The Grits - Boom Boom
(from 'The Grits' album, 2008 / Freestyle)
more info on parisdjs.com
Their Fabulous Counts cover of Jan Jan is impressive but not as much as this original, an instant classic of psychedelic dancefloor funk. The rest of the album is as good, get it on vinyl - I did!

08. Dillard Crume and The Soul Rockers - Mother Popcorn
(James Brown cover, from 'Singing The Hits of Today' album, 1969 / Alshire)
more info on dillardcrume.tripod.com or on thingsstuffandmusic.blogspot.com
At the end of the 60s gospel singer Dilard Crume was into a great James Brown-inspired funk/soul spirit. There are even rumors of Maceo Parker playing on this JB cover...

She can also be heard as lead vocalist for several soul, jazz and dance projects like Diesler, Part-Time Heroes, Hint and Hardkandy. After all these collaborations, the time has finally come to concentrate on her own material. Meeting The Vipertones helped realise this vision and made it entirely possible.

(MP3 Podcast on www.ParisDJs.com) Kraked, 2009-07-02

Africa is a wonderful song from Bob Pinodo, famous for bringing the gospel vibes to Ghana, a must in soulful breakbeat Afro vibes.

Osima - Waouh!! This is pure delight from Rex lawson, one of the fathers of Highlife, an instant classic to my ears, with amazing classy drumming and a haunting melody, this is a masterpiece no less!

Ise Owo is Apala Soul and I want more!! A dancefloor bomb from the master of nigerian saxophone, Orlando Julius.

You Are The One is a special crossover of Soul, Disco, Latin and Afrobeat with a strong statement. It could be an anthem on any afrogroovy dancefloor. Deep & catchy music from Tony Grey.

I fell in love with Show Me Your Love by the Opamanbuo International Band Of Ghana. With its haunting guitar licks and irresistible voice, it throws my blues away and makes me feel good. I hope you'll enjoy it as much as I do.

All those are really rare records coming straight from Africa, so clicks and background noise are numerous, even with all the love we gave them. But all those songs need to be rediscovered, and often vinyl is the only testimony left. So let's hope you'll enjoy the ride - and don't worry there are more to come... (Loik)

01. Bob Pinodo - Africa

(MP3 Podcast on www.ParisDJs.com) 2009-06-30

If you were a hip-hop emcee who can spit lightening fast rhymes, would you call yourself Sleep? One of the founding members of the Northwest hip-hop crew Oldominion, Sleep is a Mexican emcee with rapid flows, superb breath control, and introspective rhymes. His name was inspired by a line in a Nas song (I never sleep because sleep is the cousin of death). He's totally one for beat conoisseurs and lyric addicts. His rapping is fast and complex, meter and flow changing mid-phrase, but always on time. If you're into Tonedeff, Hyeroglyphics, Del Da funky Homosapien, The Pharcyde, etc., it should definitively be your thing!

On the news front, Sleep's released today his third album, Hesitation Wounds, on Strange Famous Records, a new one in a series of 'must buy' records for all hip hop lovers, which include the fantastic Christopher from 2005 and the Combination Lock marvel from 2007 with Zelly Rock.

Tighten Up was a summer 1968 number one R'n'B and Pop hit single by Archie Bell and the Drells from Houston, Texas. It sold a million copies by May 1968. The song described an accompanying dance that the band had invented, also called the Tighten Up. It's one of the most addictive early funk tracks ever, and has been covered and played by everyone from Maceo Parker to The Bamboos since then. Here's a 30mn blended selection of our favourite funk and latin versions...

This Hypnotic Brass Ensemble blew my mind the first time I heard them. I had seen some videos on YouTube but was finally able to grab two copy of their War/Mercury 10 inch at a local record store (thank you to the kind people selling Jazz and World at Gibert Joseph in Paris!)... The spare one went into the hands of Pierre from Souljazz Orchestra who got to see them onstage a few days after, opening for Mos Def in Amsterdam. He told me they totally stole the show, which I'm sure they did! Listening to their rare self-released albums (on CDR you can buy at their shows) or concert that are circulating on the Internet (you gotta check the one with Tony Allen!) can only mean one thing: the Hypnotic Brass Ensemble is currently one of the few killer live bands out there!! They'll be playing next Wednesday in Paris at the New Morning and we have 10 tickets to offer - be there or be square!

(MP3 Podcast on www.ParisDJs.com) 2009-05-23

We've been cooking this mix for a long time, selecting its pieces slowly, one by one... The idea was to collect tracks that were obviously or not-so-obviously influenced by Dj Shadow's masterpiece and first album (on the defunct Mo' Wax label), Endtroducing. Some names spring to mind instantly, like Rjd2 (featured here), but we've tried to dig into many places, from the forgotten (DJ Bias of Lewis Parker fame, J-Walk who's second album will happen soon on Peacefrog, Manitoba now called Caribou), to the unknown in Europe (Mnemotrauma, Joe Beats from Non Prophets who's albums are just fantastic and who we had picked up for our This Is The New Hip Hop Thing CD compilation) and the bigger names (Gnarls Barkley). No Blockhead, no Wax Taylor, no DJ Cam, no UNKLE, no Diplo, no Aim... There surely are many other artists who've given props to that first Dj Shadow album and if you've got suggestions for a second volume don't hesitate to leave a comment!

(MP3 Podcast on www.ParisDJs.com) 2009-05-06

This is not your usual Molesting Laura mix. Of course, it's all covers, some easy to recognize, some others not that obvious... That's because we've been specially digging in our vaults of American modern jazz. The kind of your never hear about over the Atlantic. The trip will take you from downtown New York (Medeski Martin and Wood) to New Orleans (Dirty Dozen Brass Band), from Brooklyn (Marco Benevento) to Tulsa (Jacob Fred Jazz Odyssey), from San Diego (The Greyboy Allstars) to Bridgeport (Fuzz), back to Brooklyn (Soulive), and from Harlem (The Harlem Experiment) to San Francisco (Garaj Mahal)...

The Dirty Dozen Brass Band track is taken from their album produced by John Medeski, Buck Jump - New Orleans down home funky jazz at its best. The Marco Benevento one is from his 2009 album Me Not Me, an incredible set of covers done piano trio with sculpted sounds - with bassist Reed Mathis and drummers Matt Chamberlain and Andrew Barr, two of them being members of The Slip. Long-time readers will recognize them... Also, don't pass out on another piano trio, Jacob Fred Jazz Odyssey, really mind-blowing. We've played a track from their latest album, Winterwood, which you can download for free on their site! Finally, this mix is an opportunity to talk about the Harlem Experiment album released on Ropeadope in 2007. It's just a monster album with the cream of NY uptown jazz musicians, fusing jazz, klezmer, salsa, soul, hip-hop and funk. One of the best new thing! we've heard this century.

Some of you might remember the end of year 2007, when we put up an Unfabulous Megamix from Brighton's 21st century post-breakbeat funkster Flevans. We were celebrating the lad's second album released on the Jack To Phono label. Since then we had many thank you feedback from people delighted to have discovered those authentic new grooves. Flevans will be back on May 8th on his former label Tru Thoughts with a new album, 27 />Devils, that's been playing on repeat on my CD player (along with the upcoming Quantic one). He cooked a brand new exclusive mix for Paris Djs to help announce it, with many recent but rare releases in the lot, 45s, 12 inches, bootleg re-edits, etc. Enjoy!

(MP3 Podcast on www.ParisDJs.com) Kraked, 2009-04-28

We couldn't call this 'World Music' cos' the term doesn't mean squatt. We thought it could be some kind of 'Oriental Flavour' thing but then what about the brazilian jazz track in there? Then we remembered Loik Dury used to do the programmation for Radio Nova in France for so many years, bringing to the scene what Jean-Francois Bizot had called 'La Sono Mondiale'. This mix is perfect example of that spirit. Rare groove with no limits whatsoever.

We've already praised before the incredible work of labels such as Soundway or Analog Africa, which appear here again but hey, their compilations were simply the best of last year!! That said, you might want to expect a lot of surprises in the future, since we've sent to Nigeria and Benin some of our diggers to go and fetch the real rare things. That, and new productions with Oghene Kologbo (Fela's guitarist until 1978), Amayo (lead singer from Antibalas) and Tony Allen, among others... so stay tuned!

Free The Robots, alias Chris Alfaro (with the help of keyboardist/guitarist Phil Nisco), comes from Santa Ana, California, and is just one of the most interesting DJ/beatmakers around! He's mostly released tracks on cult labels, very limited editions, with incredible artwork, on Obey Records particularly (along with The Gaslamp Killer and his super heavy beats), on Eadsel in Japan, on Jazz and Milk or Equinox in Germany, with a new album coming soon on Alpha Pup... Expect instrumental hip hop fusing breakbeats with psychedelia, prog rock, obscure samples, old jazz, blues, trip hop, soul and electronic bits. This is the new thing!

This mix started as a 'Hip Hop vs Jazz' mix and soon evolved into a '21st Century Swing' selection. But then we figured we really loved our b-boy caps and decided to go towards turntablism, playing around with jazz samples and more cut'n'paste of swinging beats. Props to Ali B of Air Recordings for releasing such quality 45s - we played one in this mix and licenced two others for the 'It's The New Hip Hop Thing' compilation out now (Vibrations/Harmonia Mundi)! More friendly UK labels are here too with Belleruche from Tru Thoughts and Mike-L from First Word. May they all keep on sending us such quality music...

Our world tour of African music continues in the form of a greatest hits selection from the last two years, with supa-dupa audio mastering by Grant Phabao (as usual). The Mehanan Street Band 'Make The Road By Walking' is an instant classic of instrumental funk and soul. We said that before. The Budos Band album 'Budos Band II' is an instant classic of cinematic afro and funk. That too. The Souljazz Orchestra album 'Manifesto' will be enjoyed by all fans of Fela and James Brown. Yep. We've been harrassing you about the SJO quite much. Have we already played and praised the Hypnotic Brass Ensemble brilliance in these pages? Think so. Didn't we already play a track from the Afro Influenced Funk Federation in our latest 21st Century Afro mix? Yes we did. And The Polyversal Souls is just another disguise for The Poets Of Rhythm (alias Karl Hector and The Malcouns), who are featured, like, every month here...

Lay down, close your eyes, and prepare yourself to travel from the USA to Nigeria, Togo and Europe with a 30mn rainbow of African soundscapes. Heavily featured here is Adrian Quesada who's been baffling us in 2008 with his afro-latin productions with Martin Perna (Antibalas) as Ocote Soul Sounds, as well as with his latin band Grupo Fantasma... We also love the Lighting Head album - you might remember the man from his dubbed Rockers Hi-Fi records or under his Biggabush alias... Completing this mix are rarities from Analog Africa, from Kon and Amir on BBE, french library stuff and a well-titled King Sunny Ade track.

What's African music today? When going to record shops, one is able to find many incredible reissues and compilations. Then there's a small 'afrobeat' stack sometimes, where new and groovy afro music is usually displayed. Here's a little deeper digging, with electronic afrojazz from France (Minimoogli), electronic afrosoul from Netherlands (thru England: AIFF reinterpreted by Diesler and Laura Vane), Afropunk Slam from Trinidad (Anthony Joseph on France's leading jazz label Heavenly Sweetness), funky Afrojazz from Germany (The Boogoos), American Afrofunk (Kokolo) remixed by Israelian funkmeister Kutiman, and cinematic Afrojazz from the United Kingdom (Middlewood Sessions)...

What started as a 21st Century Latin selection ended like this: latin + dance = party! As usual, we tried to dig deep into our (latin) stacks, bringing a rare Michael Ray (from the Sun Ra Arkestra) track from 10 years ago featuring a blistering solo from Trey Anastasio (Phish), a killer Irakere cover from Grupo Fantasma, some nice bootie business from Me and You (Tru Thoughts), a jazz stormer from The Hi-Fly Orchestra... and many more supergroovy latin goodies!

A mix coming from web-digging sessions, thanks to the passion and culture of a few people, one may discover today unkwown pearls which any other way would be reserved for rich collectors (I won't dare to imagine the price of the 'African Fiesta' 45). 70s African music beating prices records on E-bay these days, we only have labels like Soundway, Kona, Analog Africa, Honest Jon's, Strut, etc. and their amazing compilations...

In order to dig deeper, go back up to the source and find information, we'd advise to begin with those must-not-miss four Blogs (of course sound is sometimes not that prefect but frankly there are bombs in there). Maximum respect.

Pierre Wax discovers disco as a teen without knowing at the time that it was disco. He's been digging the trail ever since, widening it with hip hop, electro-funk, mid-tempo Italo, some jazz also, with a recurring handclaps background. Pierre is now part of the Goldrush crew and runs with his accomplice Guido the booking for the Panic Room venue in Paris (where we run the monthly Paris DJs parties). He's presenting here a chillout mix, with hip hop, jazz, soul and funk colors. A different mix, an aerial one, perfectly sequenced. A kind of magnificently magnificent miracle for your earphones. Two words spring to my mind: "thanks" and "more"!

(MP3 Podcast on www.ParisDJs.com) T.I.M.E.C., 2009-01-25

I've been a long time Poets Of Rhythm addict (check their discography on parisdjs.com), I discovered Bajka because of tracks she recorded with the Poets backing her. I met Gerald Jazzman and Tom Strauch (Switchstance Recordings) who told me more and pointed me towards a tracks I didn't know about and stuff she had recorded recently. I was quite impressed... as much as I have been with nearly everything she recorded so far!

Not many people know about Bajka here in France, from what I've been asking around. A few say "Bonobo?" (she was on the "Days To Come" album released by Ninja Tune in 2006) but most don't even get she was on the fantastic Radio Citizen album released the same year on Ubiquity - among many other appearances...

I tried my selection to a few connoiseurs, and they all were very happy to discover a new voice they hadn't heard about, which they absolutly loved too instantly. The Billy Holiday connection is always the first to come to mind, but then there are other reactions too...

So I thought "yeah let's do that, a mix about Bajka, so that many others may know about her, that's what we're really about with all this website thing, new incredible talents, worldwide artists, 21st century jazz, soul, funk and reggae!!

(MP3 Podcast on www.ParisDJs.com) T.I.M.E.C., 2009-01-14

This 3rd volume of 21st Century African music begins in Asheville, North Carolina (USA) with The Afromotive, fusing Afrobeat, Funk and improvisation. Did someone say 'jamband'? The trombone/trumpet player Brian Bender (from New England, USA) could easily fit in that category, since he's been playing with numerous bands across the globe, from latin jazz, to samba reggae, african, calypso, klezmer, celtic, arabic, turkish, middle eastern, jazz, blues, dixieland, afrobeat and funk! Next we have Nomo from Michigan, USA, with an extract from their latest album, 'Ghost Rock', one of the most innovative records of 2008, heavily mixing Krautrock with Afrobeat, Funk and Jazz. We then come back to some HUGE recent afrofunk albums, the Karl Hector and The Malcouns one (from Germany) and the second Budos Band long player (New York, USA). We're kinda pushing those records a lot and proud of doing so. Buy them if you still haven't!! We close this selection with Chicago Afrobeat Project from Chicago, USA, with a track taken from '(A) Move To Silent Unrest', their latest and best album yet, a true crossover of Afrobeat and Jazz.

A tribute to Talking Heads
Ok, so now, everybody knows Talking Heads, everybody's a fan. But how deep can you go into their discography? How crazy can you go digging for solo tracks and produced-by songs? How much time can you lose trying to figure out which guitar is Byrne's on the Fun Boy Three album or where does Harrison sing on the Violent Femmes album? Take a big breath and check this whole half hour inside the Heads'heads. You'll hear rare stuff, familiar tunes and forgotten tracks. Follow this journey into a world of fantastic rhythms, violent guitars and meaningful lyrics. This is only the beginning: part 2 is on its way. And if you feel like your favorite song is missing, this is because we all know it.

You might also discover The Ottawa Bros. from Canada, before rejoicing to hear another Karl Hector and The Malcouns ethio-funk track (who'll be back with a new mix at the end of the month), and crying while listening to the incredible Beatles cover from 60s Ghanean singer Charlotte Dada.

Info :
Now it may safely be said that the heritage of Soviet cinematography accounts for dozens of movies which are marked not only by distinguished decisions of stage direction, unique theatrical and actory style, but also by musical decisions which can be referred to the worldwide cultural heritage. By the way, this tradition was born in USSR in 20-30s of XX century when the production of films with jazz arrangements began in Soviet Russia. The total volume of accumulated material is amazingly great and diverse. For example, American and European famous soundtracks were re-issued and sampled many times. In our country such a work wasn't fulfilled, therefore now the primary task for development of this trend is to create a catalogue of Soviet films and soundtracks which afterwards will be issued in the form of albums and compilations on vinyl disks, CD or, may be, in the form of reworks. Several enthusiasts already began the search for rarities. If you strike 'Soviet jazz-funk films' in the search bar on www.youtube.com, you'll find many musical fragments. A few recordings were issued on vinyl, however all original recordings exist and are kept in record offices and funds of Russian Federation, CIS countries and Baltic States. Another important task is to decide upon a problem of royalty, both for recordings themselves and for fragments and samples that are used, because it can became a sufficiently wide room for manoeuvre for contemporary artists.

(MP3 Podcast on www.ParisDJs.com) T.I.M.E.C., 2008-08-28

Info :
The second volume of our '21st Century Afro' series begins its trip with a peaceful afro-ethio-cuban trip from Lightning Head (alias Glyn 'Bigga' Bush/UK), extracted from the 12 inch taster of his upcoming album ('13 faces of Lightning Head'), then heads directly into heavy afro-kraut-jazz from Nomo, a collective from Michigan developing quite an unique sound. This 'Last Beat' is to be found on their powerful third album ('Ghost Rock'). After another instant afrosoul classic taken from The Budos Band's masterpiece, 'The Budos Band II', the mix navigates into supafunky ethio-jazz from The Lions, a Los Angeles collective of musicians you may also find playing in Breakestra, Connie Price and the Keystones, Orgone, Madlib's Sound Directions, Plant Life, Clutchy Hopkins, the Greyboy allstars... Their 'Jungle Struttin' album mixes reggae, ethiojazz, colombian and african grooves with soul, jazz, and funk! Things then get more focused with a devastating pamphlet from Seun Kuti and Egypt 80, one of the many available on his booming 'Many Things' album. The Shawn Lee apparition in this selection whichcomes afterwards is quite a surprise, but since the multi-instrumentalist genius decided to go global on his latest album ('Miles of Styles'), there's no reason to pass out on it. The same goes for the closing track, the hard-hitting Afrobeat drum-powered 'Platypus Strut' by Ohmega Watts - with the help of members of the Breakestra/Connie Price/Antibalas... it's a small world.

[comment faire?/how to?]

Info :
In the next 6 weeks, Paris DJs activists Grant Phabao and Djouls will explore the many facets of 21st century African music, from Afrobeat to Afrofunk, from Afrosoul to Afrojazz, etc. This week's selection opens the salva with one of THE albums of the year, the second opus from The Budos Band, one you NEED - trust us. After a glimpse of the new Akoya Afrobeat Ensemble album, we're proud to present a new master of African music, Seun Kuti, bravely and proudly reaching out to his father with a bomb of a first album! A record we'll lookout for in the coming months is Antony Joseph and The Spasm Band's new one on french jazz label Heavenly Sweetness. You'll get here a taste of their recently released "La Diablesse EP", which hints at some serious afro-punk-jazz grooves. Concerning Kokolo, we've already told ya many times that their formula is flawless: funky afrobeat to dance to. Nuff' said. Nostalgia 77 is a UK artist with a huge soul-jazz sensibility, producing, remixing, releasing a LOT of stuff on Brighton's Tru Thoughts label and around. Grant Phabao got the chance to remix his cover of The White Stripes' 7 Nation Army featuring the incredible vocals of Alice Russell. It's available on his current "One Offs, Remixes and B-sides" compilation, along with an afrodeepfunk remix of his "Freedom" track, which we've included here. Closing this mix is former Fela guitarist/bassist Oghene Kologbo's latest single, extracted from his Fela Kuti homage album (available with two different covers for CD and vinyl). If you were in Paris this August (2008) you shouldn't have missed the 4 consecutive free Antibalas free shows in Parcs - Oghene was there guest-starring, offering some superb afrorock guitar solos... All in all 30mn is VERY short for afrobeat - but if you come back next week, we should have uploaded a new selection of the best 21st Century Afro Music you may find!! See ya there.

Tracklisting :
01. One day In Kiev - Jazz Ensemble 'Mugam'
02. Concert for the voice by Constantin Petrosyan

Info :
This is my fifth podcast, and to celebrate it, I have prepared something special, jazzy and at the same time, sodden with Caucasus folk culture. This podcast consists of two parts: First â is a fragment (pictures of Caucasus) of an jazz-ensemble called "Mugam" lead by Vagif Mustafa-Zade (1978).
Vagif Mustafa-zade â was a prize winner of such festivals as "Tallin-66", "Tallin-67" and "Jazz-69" in Azerbaijan. In 1977 Vagif became a prize-winner of an United Jazz festival in Donezk. Jazz festival "Tbilisi-78" has brought him a name as the best pianist in USSR. Having taken participation in the International jazz composition contest held in Monaco in 1979, Vagif won the First prize and received a beautiful white piano as a prize. Finding a more detailed biography of Vagif Mustafa-zade isn't that hard, most importantly is the effect his music brings on you.

Second part of the podcast is a fragment of a big-band concert by Vladimir Chekasin, with an assistance of an composer named Constantin Petrosyan. The voice of the project became Tatevick Oganesyan â the "queen" of soviet jazz vocal, the Russian Ella Fitzgerald. Even nowadays, she is still matchless in the jazz mainstream. Tatevick's manner of singing is heavily influenced by traditional Armenian music. She has sang in America, Europe, Australia. She received applauses at Lincoln center and Carnegie Hall.

Info :
We hope you enjoyed the previous Molesting Laura mix of soul and funk reggae covers cos this one's in the same vein, with soul (a bit) and reggae (mostly) interpretations of songs by The Supremes, The Temptations, Barry White, The Bee Gees (!), Santana and a few selected others... Opening and closing this mix is our favorite UK soul singer Alice Russell, first covering The Supremes' My World Is Empty Without You with blue-eyed class, and then being remixed by our main man Grant Phabao, with the help of legendary Jamaican deejay The Lone Ranger adding some new lyrics in the mix. An incredible treat - don't miss the Lone Ranger with the Soul Stereo Soundsystem on June 27th at Les Nuits Zebrees (La Bellevilloise, Paris and on Radio Nova), and the following day opening for the Garance Reggae Festival at Le Zenith (Paris)!!

(MP3 Podcast on ParisDJs.com) T.I.M.E.C., 2008-01-19

Info :
A mix that's been nearly a year in preparation, a mix that started with the best 'Funk For Kids' dispositions, but ended in a 'Funk WITH Kids' way all grown-ups should enjoy too. We've been digging for months for those kiddie funk tracks, and thanks to the "ABC's of Kid Soul" compilation recently released by the Numero Group (ditributed by the friendly Differ-Ant people over here in France), we've finally managed to round up quite a surprising soundtrack of electic grooves with kids (or choirs of kids) singing...

Also a special big-up to Medeski Martin and Wood's new album of music for kids on Little Monster Records, 'Let's Go Everywhere', which showcases the versatility of our favorite jazz band out there. You'll aslo find John Medeski playing keyboards along with Steven Bernstein (from Sex Mob) on trumpet and Sharon Jones on vocals (with a few others...) on the 'Baby Loves Jazz' album - one that all parents should get when they get tired of FM Radio and other kinds of debilitating kids music, one that will ravish the youngsters in the backseat!

Finally, everybody must know the Justice 'D.A.N.C.E.' track by now, but we've taken the liberty of playing just before this one a bit of the track that must have inspired such a worldwide single, the MASSIVE hit from Erik Rug and MC Dynamax, remixed by L'Aroye and Ky, 'Tribute To My People'. If you don't own this 12 inch yet, find yourself a new record supplier cos' this was THE track of 2006. Nuff' said.

Info :
Arthur Borgnis aka Doctor Donuts pratique le deejaying depuis 92. Il defend une certaine idee du mixe eclectique et aime varier les saveurs loin des formatages habituels. Fortement influence par le jazz, il puise ses racines dans le large spectre de la musique black (soul, brazil, latin, hip-hop...), mais aussi dans les musiques 'electroniques' (Detroit techno, House, Broken...). Avec son compere Antoine Bertola, il compose sous le nom de Charivari (Downsall â Schema), dont les remixes et maxis ont ete largement playlistes (Laurent Garnier, Rainer Truby, Alton Miller, Quanticâ...). L'album de Charivari est prevu pour le printemps.
Egalement realisateur, Arthur Borgnis finit le montage du documentaire 'Broken Vibes' consacre au Broken Beat (Bugz, IG Culture, Gilles Peterson, Jazzanova...) qui sortira en DVD debut 2008. Promoteur des soirees Jazz Freaks, Doctor Donuts souhaite faire partager son amour pour le jazz et les galaxies qui l'entourent: brazil, latin, funk, soul, hip hop, broken beat... sans oublier la danse et la convivialite.

Info :
The idea to make this podcast struck me when I heard that Winter Olympic Games in 2014 would take place in Sochi. There is a record in my collection which is called "Sochi". It is dedicated to this wonderful resort in the South of Russia. Well, Sochi status has changed to a would-be olympic capital now. The opening track in the mix is a song in Spanish recorded by a cuban singer Lourdes Gil together with the cinematographic orchestra of the USSR directed by Silantyev. The rest of the mix is compiled of records released by 'Melodia' over the years, including discs that were made just before the Olympic Games '80 in Moscow.

A small tribute to the immense Jean-Francois :
Bizot notre pape de la contre culture, fondateur d'Actuel et de Radio Nova, nous a quitte il y a quelques mois et la vie n'est plus pareille. Ses coup de gueule, ses entousiasmes, sa liberte d'etre et ses visions nous manquent deja cruellement. A l'occasion d'un Mensomadaire special, j'en profite juste pour lui jouer quelques songs qu'il affectionnait, de la musique pour lui. Pour lui dire qu'il nous manque!

(MP3 Podcast on ParisDJs.com) T.I.M.E.C., 2007-11-18

Info :
A few months have gone by with only one or two new mixes appearing over here but thankfully, we haven't received much complaints yet. After this nearly-hiatus period, we're glad to announce we're back with bags and bags and bags of new records to play. Beside our usual record-digging over-activity, cool labels like Tru Thoughts, Ubiquity, Freestyle, Melting Pot, First Word, Ropeadope, Sonar Kollektiv, Les Disques du Telegraphe or T.I.M.E.C. have been sending us some incredible stuff recently, and we cannot thank them all nearly enough.

Things start heating up with a '21st Century Roots Vol.4', carefully selected by one of our most persistent DJs, Djouls, and especially blended by the number 1 french soundmaster, Grant Phabao, whose MP3s might sound better than your WAVs... As you might already know, this series focuses on reggae-tinted music that's been produced after the year 2000. Expect a tight selection of roots reggae, jamaican funk and dub - perfectly fit all the lazy iPod smokers out there. The Mr Vegas vs Grant Phabao bootleg is 100 percent exclusive and we'd love to get more info on The Flying Customs band/group/artist (??) who sent us this back-to-the-roots marvel...

Coming soon, a serie of 3 new Molesting Laura mixes for all lovers of surprising covers...

Tracklisting :
01. The Lions - Think (About It) (Instrumental)
(from 'Choices EP 1' 12 inch, 2007 / Ubiquity Records) USA
02. Mr Vegas Vs Grant Phabao - Under Me Skank (The Flying Customs Mix)
(from 'Grant Phabao - Remixed And Remixes Vol.2' promo compilation, 2006 / T.I.M.E.C.) JAMAICA/FRANCE
03. DJ Vadim - Fear Feats feat. Emo And Syrus
(from 'The Soundcatcher' album, 2007 / Barely Breaking Even Records)
