Nostalgia

Sometimes I get really nostalgic. I mean, come on, rap is cool and techno's fine, but imagine a world without something like this... It makes me cry. Photo by Stanley Kubrick for Look Magazine, 1949.

From "God's Plan", that's '02.

Just dug this 12" - will try to rip instrumentals, but my copy is really scratched... From '98, that's almost 10 years... "SuperThug" is an early Neptunes production. And "Banned From TV" features The Lox, Big Pun, Cam'Ron and Nature. Phat.

testing

My pal strasznachoroba reminded me of Paul Kienitz tests - be sure to check which science fiction writer or classical composer you are. I'm Hal Clement and Richard Wagner. Happily married to Stanislaw Lem and Sergei Prokofiev. Sounds like fun - we make a lovely four.

It's not easy being Number Two...

...but It's so much fun watching "Afro Samurai", new animated miniseries "starring" Samuel L. Jackson and Ron Perlman. Be sure to grab the soundtrack as well. The RZA delivers.

today is the...

...so I won't be posting any Professor Griff, as intended.

"The only thing we knew for sure about Henry Porter...

...is that his name wasn't Henry Porter".

I almost forgot how great this story is. Written by Bob Dylan and Sam Shepard.

"Funny" T-shirts are usually crap, but...

A Big One

New album from Panda Bear, "Person Pitch" (Fat Cat), is as good as an acid-drenched "Sgt Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band" recorded sometime between 1920 and 2009. Of course, it may be just a pile of rubbish for some... but we don't care, do we? This track comes also in form of a 12" single, and my oh my it's worth some of the extended play. Go and buy this record, folks. I'll have two copies.

You've Got Foetus On Your Breath

The term "new rave" (don't expect me to use the "other" spelling of this) is becoming so hyped nowadays, that even left-wing daily papers in Poland mention it here or there. Really. So, how about this lone raver, back from the 80s? '88 and '84, respectively. Rave this, new ravers.

Yes, I know, it has nothing to do with any rave. Whatever, man, whatever.

more stuff

There's a new Joakim album on Versatile, titled "Monsters & Silly Songs", and some songs actually ARE rather silly.... You might now by now solid beats of a mighty "Drumtrax", here's something a bit different:
Love Me 2.mp3


Frivolous is a modest gentleman and a great performing artist. His new record on ~scape, "Midnight Black Indulgence" has some unforgettable moments. Among them this particular track. Spot the Obscure Polish Spoken Word Record Sample.
Forget The Funk.mp3


New album from Busdriver, "Roadkillovercoat", also brings quite a few surprises. Like this:
Sun Shower.mp3


Finally Mika Vainio, obviously pissed off by the rising prices of strong booze, serves some harsh noises on "Revitty" (Wavetrap Records). Fine for me.

Additionally, some soothing sounds from the High Llamas and a sneak peek into Damon Albarn's latest project (with Tony Allen and Paul Simonon, but it's not as good as it sounds).

It took some time...

...but finally I managed to get into 2007. And, judging on how it started, it'll be another VERY good year. Or even one of the best...
Four tracks today: Goran Bregovic (from Shantel's "Bucovina Club"), some slightly but pleasantly retarded Casiotone, Nick Cave's new rantings under his new moniker (and moustache) and simply Love (re-edited). Happy New Year.
