Radio Jakarta 004: Jannis Of Jakarta Records - "Sunday Hungover Music"

In between 2003 and 2007 or 2008 I used to travel to South East Asia pretty much whenever I had semester holidays. It was before the tons of Thai music reissues and finding records was actually tricky since finding stores proved to be a challenging task (at least for me). 

Some days ago I started listening to some of the vinyl I picked up back then (and one or two more recent trades) and figured it would be nice to make a little mix, in this case focussing on the "funky" stuff not the vital string band scene. All original vinyl for what its worth. 

I hope you guys enjoys the mix. Thanks for all the support in 2014, we're looking forward to 2015.

i got to travel a lot in north africa in the last years thru touring with blitz the ambassador and the studio session with oddisee for sawtuha in tunisia. while being there i did some digging and found some incredible music from the 60s and 70s. some of the music in this mix has zero info on the net, was never sold on ebay and has not been "rediscovered" yet. others are somewhat classics in the field of „arabic groove“. the music in this mix comes from morocco, libya, eggpt, algeria, lebanon and syria.

Gruff Rhys presents the soundtrack to the film Set Fire To The Stars. The album is released on Finders Keepers on September 30th 2016.

Although recorded around the same time as Gruff’s last LP (2014’s hugely acclaimed American Interior), Set Fire To The Stars paints a very different picture to that of the Welsh explorer John Evans. Equal parts cocktail jazz, hazy Americana and Atomic Age bop, it’s a love letter to New York in all its hopeful, post war glory – a gorgeous diversion of a record to add to Gruff’s increasingly brilliant solo catalogue.

Gruff on Set Fire To The Stars:

“This is an album of music written for a film directed by Andy Goddard concerning the poet Dylan Thomas’s first week in the USA in 1950 and his uneven friendship with fellow poet - and agent of sorts - John Malcolm Brinnin. As the film is shot in black and white and set in the Jazz age, I decided not to use any instruments unavailable in that era. I also keep the recordings as live takes. Beyond that - I didn’t try and ape the style of that era in particular apart from the song Atom Bomb which on screen, plays on a jukebox in a cafe and needed to be true to the year sonically and lyrically in some way.

“Playing the guitar, I formed a short lived Agro-Jazz quartet (you got a problem with that?) called Video Loss with Chris Walmsley on drums, Jim Barr on double bass and Osian Gwynedd on piano. I wrote a bunch of songs and instrumentals. Some other bits were improvised to picture by Osian Gwynedd and myself. Chop Shop features Video Loss on max Moon-Ra improvisational setting.

Gruff ab Arwel arranged all the strings and Gavin Fitzjohn played and scored the brass. It was recorded and mixed at Toybox, Bristol by the incredible Ali Chant - apart from the strings which were recorded at Metropolis, London.”

Gruff Rhys is currently recording his next proper solo album – it is due for release in 2017.

Set Fire To The Stars

Gruff Rhys - Set Fire To The Stars

Fan of thatch, dark woods, rattan, bamboo, exciting swizzle sticks, lifts, waiting rooms, air travel, space needles, nautical props, Kahoolawe, Moloka'i, palms, Kodak Brownies, floral wallpaper, monorails, Fort Lauderdale, Brandy Alexanders, coral, rafts, shells and girls with clubs? Excited yet apprehensive about the future? Join my sonorous sojourn to the clandestine City of Veils, the sequestered Carnival Merenque and tenebrous Teheran sands. Why not learn the Blue Tango of Cuchibamba, nurse a Fog Cutter by the Lotus Pool, or ride the great Annam Wheel to Bacheo? Come, traveller. Komo mai e noho, komo mai.
