Cuttin' Out

Professor Longhair released this great blues-rocker in 1959 on the local New Orleans label Ron. It is just beautiful.

The Sound of New York

I went to N.Y. for a one week holiday, and with me I brought loads of ideas about the place. Pieces picked from film and music – different stories. Nevertheless I eventually made it my own city by walking it, up and down for six days. Of course some crate digging too, and those moments made a strong distinction between the city sounds, like traffic and people, and the tracks I heard in the records stores. But these are the songs that I fell for – hope you like them – I do!

In Dub

A couple of weeks ago i posted a tribute mix to Scientist and this week i continue in a dub related fashion. This time in a Techno-Dubstep-Bass-Dub kinda way,all new, fresh, heavy and trippy. Hope you enjoy it!

...thinking of 2010

This is some of my favorites from last year, which was a great music year for me. I ended up in a new social context with new influences and I realized that so much good music is still being made. And this year looks very bright as well, the new Low Anthem record is fantastic and I have of course high expectations on the second Timber Timbre album, which will be released in April. If you're in Stockholm and need a little musical input I would highly recommend that you pass by Fönstret, one of my favorite record stores in town.

Scientist A Deh Dub Specialist

It´s not everyday that you get a new Scientist album in the post. Today was that day though and what a record. Scientist "Launches Dubstep Into Outer Space" is much better than i could have ever hoped for. I like Dubstep, but the main problem with it and all other modern bass music from the UK is that it´s for the most part not dubby enough. I never understood why you wanna call something Dub and then forget to dub it? With Scientist behind the desk this is not the case here. Modern style rhythms with one of Dubs living legends = super niceness.

I was meaning to do a midtempo disco mix for this week but instead i chose to do a tribute mix to the man called Scientist. This mix contains tracks from way back when he landed on earth, won the world cup, became heavyweight champion of the world and encountered Pac-man. Feel free to download, put it in your player, walk down to the shop and get the above mentioned album and while your at it don´t forget the latest Barry Brown re-issues on digikiller which also holds some heavyweight Scientist dubs.
