Sound Species - Can We Call It Love (ft Ahu)

My favourite Sound Species track is "Can We Call It Love" featuring Ahu on vocals. Sound Species was formed by brothers Henry and Olly Keen, who where drawn to creating sounds and melodies at an early age, fast forward a few years and various journeys through dj culture, electronic music, Herbie Hancocks back catalogue and a slew of other talented musicians and the Sound Species band was born.

Bob Marley & The Wailing Wailers - Live at The Orchestra Hall, Minneapolis USA, 13 May 1976

Bob Marley needs know introduction and although this recording is crackly and not of the best quality (like the old Studio One recordings produced by the original three Wailers (Peter Tosh, Bunny Wailer & Bob Marley)) it is well worth having a bowl and listening to... Listen to (or download) Bob Marley & The Wailers - Live at The Orchestra Hall, Minneapolis USA, 13 May 1976 here.

Ghostly - Hollow Talk

I found "Hollow Talk" on Ghostly's Soundcloud page. I wish i knew who the vocalists are by... Such a beautiful track.  It certainly captures ones attention. I recommend this download!

Blu Mar Ten - My Heart

Blu Mar Ten know how to make beautiful drum & bass. It is so easy to lose yourself in their music... For the Holiday Season of 2010/2011 they have generously given away a track many people have been wanting to get hold of for awhile, which has only just been let loose now. Get hold of "My Heart" by Blu Mar Ten here.

JRocc - Chasing The Dragon (Bonus Beats)

JRocc is incredible, listening to "Chasing The Dragon" i can hear samples of songs that I have long forgotten the name of but that warm my heart and bring a smile to my face. Download JRocc's tasty little Bonus Beats track "Chasing The Dragon" here.

JRocc - Remember (The) Maxx

I love Michael Jackson and anyone who pays tasteful homage to him are always worth checking out. I am going to play this JRocc remix "Remember (The) Maxx" alot over this summer, it is nice to know that Michael is still in the hearts and memories. Download JRocc's "Remember (The) Maxx" here.

dela - The Robert Glasper Beat Tape

DJ Spinna In B-Boy Mode

Normally I strictly listen to kFM or Base FM in my car, however my aerial broke so I have been restricted to CD's. As a result of this, I have recently been listening to alot of DJ Spinna. Whilst browsing Soundcloud to find things to share with you good folk, I found this great little hip-hop mix that he has done. Listen it here.

Kelpe - Silent Night

I have a soft spot for Christmas songs that have not been thrashed in every store every Christmas every year that I have been alive. Kelpe has created a beautiful wee version of Silent Night that will echo in my heart as the New Year rolls in. Download it here.

Space Kid - LIKEUBROWNEYES

I really like this - not just for the awesome art work, but also because it was just what i needed to hear after stupidly pressing play on an abortion sounding "dubstep" (which sounded more like warbled trance beats) Kiss FM Mix. Download Space Kid's LIKEUBROWNEYES here.

Ras G - Exile Radio Remix Demo 1

I found this on Soundcloud with the following note:

This song makes me think of the love of my life

 

Georgie Anne Muldrow - fOnkRocker

Having released somewhere near a dozen albums under various guises over the last half-decade, Georgia Anne Muldrow continues her restless and invariably noteworthy career with the release of an all-instrumental album, VWETO, on Mello Music. Muldrow's blend of hip-hop, funk, R&B, and rock can often be heady music, with short, abstract tracks often sidling against longer vamps. But her stock of oddly compelling sounds, which includes her own voice, always keeps you interested. Recalling such funk-rock hallmarks as Funkadelic and '70s Miles Davis without sounding like an imitation of either, "fOnkRocker" reinforces Muldrow's distinctive imprint on R&B's increasingly strange trajectory.

Download the premiere of 'fOnkRocker' - a track from her upcoming release.

AFTA-1 - Love (Bare Version)

AFTA-1 have produced this very sweet little instrumental 'LOVE' that you can download here from bandcamp.

Love IS. That is really it.

We choose to be aware of this truth & capture every fleeting moment through the act of creation. Life is a gift overflowing with constant inspiration , and as c r e a t o r s we are all blessed with the tools necessary to translate our experiences in it, into art.

Our mediums and methods are as unique and infinite as these experiences, yet, the vibration that unites us is the same;

DJ Day - First Step

Erykah Badu - Honey (DJ Day Remix)

DJ Day RBMA Workshop, New Zealand.

I just got home from the Red Bull Music Academy Workshop with DJ Day at Red Bull NZ and honestly? I have left inspired. I discovered DJ Day from his work with Miles Bonny and of course there is his stunning and tasteful bootleg of Erykah Badu's "Honey" which if you have not heard yet you must.

This brother has soul, integrity and a clear passion for what he is doing which just radiates from him. I have a lot of respect for him and I feel very honoured to have the opportunity to thank him for what he puts out, because the world is truly a better place because of it. Beautiful music inspires greatness.

Whilst at the RBMA Workshop, DJ Day mentioned a track which he did with Miles Bonny called "Learning To Fly" ** which he has put out for free download here.

** by the way, when discussing experimental albums, DJ Day dropped "Dark Side Of The Moon", i later asked him if he preferred Pink Floyd with or without David Gilmour, like a man after my own heart, he said with David Gilmour. It is interesting that this track is called "Learning to Fly. He advised that he released this track for free as a way from moving on from what he had been creating, as though to release himself to go into new directions. Learning to Fly (by Pink Floyd) was written by David Gilmour once Roger Waters left Pink Floyd, leaving Gilmour to take over as the "leader"of Pink Floyd post Waters departure.... Fitting.

WikiLeaks cables: BP suffered blowout on Azerbaijan gas platform

Striking resemblances between BP's Gulf of Mexico disaster and a little-reported giant gas leak in Azerbaijan experienced by the UK firm 18 months beforehand have emerged from leaked US embassy cables.

The cables reveal that some of BP's partners in the gas field were upset that the company was so secretive about the incident that it even allegedly withheld information from them. They also say that BP was lucky that it was able to evacuate its 212 workers safely after the incident, which resulted in two fields being shut and output being cut by at least 500,000 barrels a day with production disrupted for months.

Other cables leaked tonight claim that the president of Azerbaijan accused BP of stealing $10bn of oil from his country and using "mild blackmail" to secure the rights to develop vast gas reserves in the Caspian Sea region.

Tony Cook - What's On Your Mind ft Dam Funk

Upon its emergence in the early 1970s, disco was relatively harmless. It didn’t cut itself, spit in your face, or try to split your skull open with a bass guitar.
