Prince related mentioned, so I got to post this one. Produced by Prince under the alias Alexander Nevermind. Straight up Prince quality with dirty lyrics. “Blood races to your private spots, lets me know there’s a fire / You can’t fight passion when passion is hot / Temperatures rise inside my sugar walls”. Nice.
Hope you also catched these videos of Prince rehersals from 1984. They appeared on youtube about a month ago and only one of them is still up apparently.
While Helsinki 78-82 have been remixing Kid Sister’s ‘Daydreaming’, I’ve been taking magic carpet rides with this Prince related Morris Day disco gem. Prince related? Day used to be in The Time and you can still hear Prince oozing all over the place.
Chillin in the studio, workin on some artwork stuff and listening to this. Kenny Dixon Jr sharing his point of views, talking about music and Detroit, Detroit and music. How can you not love this guy?
When you had your eye only on the club remixes and rave-nouveau in 2007, Felix Buxton (here as Pinhead) already had that fusion of club/dutch house/world beats on lock.
Lot’s of interesting things happening in Finland right now. Two weeks ago we had our Plump Bisquit release party and there were two other release parties on the same week (Hannulelauri & Dinosauruxia). Villa Nah release party is next week. Go Finland. Here’s a video from Shine 2009, a project of Schmami and Mikko Pykäri of Regina. I really dig the vibe in this video.
Artist: Sekta f. Spoek Mathambo
Title: Jabajaws REMIXED
Release date: 5th March 2010
A massive remix package to massive ep by Sekta & Spoek Mathambo previously out on Top Billin.
Being as great we are, we got some special heat for you this Friday. Sekta & Spoek’s ‘Jabajaws’ remixed by the cream of the crop of today…. The original ep released in January and was a real winner, gaining lot of attention for both artists, so this remix ep is an welcome addition to the already classic release. Remixes come from Camel, Daniel Haaksman, Raziek, Bert On Beats, Edu K, Femme En Fourrure, Kid Kaio & Top Billin. There’s even dub versions of certain remixes! We appreciate your support with this ep, preview it on the player and get it Friday as it drops. A remix ep for ‘Peterpan’ is also coming with remixes by Julio Bashmore, Doc Daneeka etc. Hold tight people.
Week is getting better and better… Get a new Sharkslayer remix of TV OFF’s ‘Boogieman’ (how convenient) for free at Mad Decent, this one’s a winner too. Big up Paul Devro and everybody at MD.
“Wambam, thank you Man! Here´s another free track for y´all to download. It´s the Top Billin´ Remix of “Ayoba”, taken from the “Ayoba” Remix EP which is out today. Additional banging remixes on the release come from Ku Bo, Beataucue, Phon.O, Beware+Motorpitch and myself, oh and Belgian polka funksters Kush did a gutter tested cover version too.” -Daniel Haaksman
We had a lot of fun doing this, exploring different beats and cranking the remix with bass. And as it says, you can grab the Top Billin remix of the already classic ‘Ayoba’ for FREE at Man Recordings blog. Wait no more. Also check whole ep and purchase it for example here.
This was up for grabs at Rinse fm blog, can’t find the post tho, but get it here. N-Type is playing Helsinki tonite, so if you’re in HKI that’s a recommended one, we’re catching a train to Turku soon…
More exclusives… A special version from our boys So Shifty, combining Sekta’s instrumental of Peterpan and vocals by Kelis. Shifty’s ep is now out on CFB, don’t forget to cop that. Our remix of Shifty’s ‘Clap’ is available for free HERE. FREE!
As we got the Philly talk started with the P.I.R. news, here’s some nice Philly low tempo disco from the group Sweet Thunder. Not a huge classic or anything but it’s as nice as ice hockey.
Philadelphia International Records was set on fire, damn. They don’t know yet how big the damages are. Artists like Teddy Pendergrass (RIP), MFSB, Lou Rawls Patti LaBelle and The Jacksons have recorded on P.I.R.
Heja Sverige, SWE-FIN 3 – 0. I don’t really care because everyone knows I’m pro-Sweden anyhow… I’m more gutted of the CAN-USA 3-5 result. In any case, get some interesting Swedish music:
We love Neoteric, he’s the dudest of dudes and lives in Vancouver. He once told me that he hasn’t been making music during autumn because he’s been practicing a lot for the Olympics as he’s part of the bobsleigh team. Naturally as an easy fool I think that’s dope and start looking for tickets to go watch him ride that sleigh. Had me going for that for a time…. Then I start to think that he’s not the skinniest guy, nor is he a ‘big boy’ as Booman puts it, so fitting in that sleigh could be somewhat akward. ‘No no man, the pusher is usually the biggest’…. So I’m telling all the boys here that there’s more to Neoteric that we know of, which gets me back some smiles. Really had me going there. Well what the fuck, Canada, bobsleigh, cool runnings! Now I am more happy that he doesn’t do it as the track is obviously dangerous. Get his remix below.
