Blackjoy

I already known Blackjoy by his album came out last year and particularly the 12" Mercurian that is a bomb but I was very pleased to hear him play in Lyon few days ago. He run a very good blog where he shares some edits that I recommend strongly two. You can check too his latest 12" in vinyl : two funky disco tracks that groove like hell (My fav is Apollo funk) ! Here is an edit he did of a track by Miss Chaka Khan... ACE !

The Emperor Machine

I don't really know why D.C. recordings is the best label on earth but it's like that ! The new LP from The Empreror Machine is coming after some great 12", especially Black ken which is propably his strongest track by now...

La verdad

We had already talk about the french label called Nacopajaz when they released the excellent album of Hurtmold, a stunning brazilian band. Today they come again with the second lp of Fedaden, half of Del Wire. I had the chance to get it and you should check it quickly... It comes with a ep of Verdad that is out now. The three mixes are good but my favourite is definitively the one by Kelpe from D.C. that i share with you.

Springtime...

One cool dub bootleg by Trentemoller to keep the spring vibe...

Italians Do it (really) Better

Mike Simonetti has just launched a very good edit on his blog. For those ignorant who don't know him, he 's the boss of Italians Do It Better, the label responsible for the great compilation After dark with Farah, Glass Candy, Chromatics, Professor Genius and so on... Thanks Mike. Enjoy !

Xylophrenia

If you follow the blog you already have heard about Clarence, he shared a track with us few months ago. Now it's time for him to release an LP on Funk Noir , a small swedish label that I didn't know. It makes me think that I should do a kind of retrospective post to give some news of all the people we posted since the beginning of the blog. Hum... have to think about it. Just now, enjoy these two tracks !

Clarence - Depth perception

For the frenchies....

So sorry for you if you don't speak french : you miss a great moment of songwritting and attitude ! This track is usually the last track of my favourite after party...
