New Album 'Curiosities' Available November 12

Bastard Jazz Recordings is proud to present the sophomore album Curiosities by New Zealand multi- instrumentalist and producer Lord Echo (aka Mike Fabs). An enticing sonic excursion that effortlessly transcends genre and geography, the release finds Echo flexing his dual-mastery of 60's production techniques and modern dancefloor aesthetics, while also highlighting the vocal prowess of his soulful compatriots through a flowing blend of boogie-laced Funk, disco-primed Dub, futuristic Soul, and timeless African rhythms.

Fabs, known worldwide for his production work with NZ’s biggest Reggae export The Black Seeds, drew a groundswell of excitement around his debut solo album Melodies in late 2010. The independent release became a cult classic strictly through word-of-mouth, championed by tastemakers like Gilles Peterson (who played it repeatedly on his BBC Radio 1 show), Oliver Wang (Soulsides) and Richard Dorfmeister. Re-issues of the album soon followed in Japan and Europe, with vinyl copies quickly becoming a hot commodity among discerning collectors around the globe. Echo was introduced to Bastard Jazz’s DJ DRM in 2011 (via Detroit producer Recloose), and a limited 7” vinyl release on the Brooklyn-based imprint soon followed in 2012, precipitating this full length release with the label.

Curiosities picks up right where Melodies left off, with the sun-drenched psychedelic dub sounds of tracks like “Bohemian Idol” (featuring vocals by Toby Laing of Fat Freddy's Drop), and the jerky funk vibes of cuts like “Digital Haircut” and “Street Knowledge”. The album provides a wealth of DJ fodder, with forward thinking 70s-inspired disco tunes such as “Molten Lava” (featuring the soaring vocals of Leila Adu), as well as analog Afro-infused burners like “What Is That Feeling” and “Put It In My Head” (complemented by the golden-voiced Mara TK of Electric Wire Hustle fame). Down-home spiritual jazz/electronic meanderings ("Ghost Hands", “Arabesque”) provide a counterpoint to Echo's driving cover-version of the Pharoah Sanders & Leon Thomas classic “The Creator Has a Master Plan”. His inspiring take on the track is uplifted by the soulful singing of Lisa Tomlins (who's notable vocals on Echo’s rendition of Sister Sledge’s “Thinking Of You” made it a standout hit from his Melodies album).

The finely-tuned collaborations throughout Curiosities underscore Lord Echo's pivotal position in the thriving New Zealand music scene. "I generally only work with people I know quite well personally", says Echo humbly. That personal and organic approach to creating his music is revealed as the album unfolds, layer by delectable layer. "I made this record primarily with DJs in mind," he continues. "They are generally people who really love music and are often obsessed with various aspects of it. I'm not making music for people for whom it's just some background noise in their lives, I'm making music for people for whom it IS their lives. And for better or worse, I guess I am one of those people."

A diverse, yet grounded LP chock full of head-turning sounds, Curiosities further pushes Lord Echo’s repertoire into the realm of the inimitable, and is sure to pique the interest of discerning music lovers from down-under to the big apple.

A minimix sampler for the very LIMITED EDITION 12" vinyl release ahead of ELECTRO BLUES Vol 2 - the critically acclaimed double album series - due out late summer.

The EP features KING CHUBBY & ECLECKTIC MICK, CEE ROO and BOBBY C SOUND TV and is available by mail order from our London distributor Kudos (below) or via good independent vinyl record shops... 

http://www.kudosrecords.co.uk/release/ZEST12061/Various_Artists_Electro_Blues_Vol_2_Sampler.html

_________________________________

DETAILS: It's been just over a year since the launch of Electro-Blues Vol.1. After an incredible 14 months programming stages from Glastonbury to Bestival and monthly residencies in London and Brightons club land, Freshly Squeezed now return with the second instalment of this groundbreaking compilation series and a further 12” vinyl sampler lifted from it.  

Vol.2 whets the appetite for the forthcoming double CD with a second eclectic helping of blues-based dance-floor goodness.

Bobby C Sound TV - "the master of funky breaks" (Krafty Kuts) - and self-appointed president of Ghetto Funk - weights in with a little Rhythm and Blues booty that smashes the door down and totally comes into it's own at club volume. Ecklectic Mick makes an emphatic return, meeting with Brighton's studio dub-maestro King Chubby to present a second exclusive slab of wildly infectious blues. And then, to top it all, we throw in an absolute cracker from Switzerland’s Cee-Roo that heats things up to boiling point. 

This is tried and tested dance-floor dynamite and expected to disappear off the racks to become a collectors item just as quickly as it's predecessor.

It's a second tantalising hint of what to expect on the upcoming Electro-Blues Vol.2 double CD compilation, highlighting the broad appeal (and divergent styles) of this micro vintage remix genre that is quickly finding it’s feet. Do not miss. This will fly.

Unfortunately I no longer have the original track-list for this set. These tracks are all originally made or remixed by other artists not by myself, I've just selected and mixed them together here for your pleasure and amusement. Your best bet now is the mobile app Shazam if you need specific track IDs. Any bookers please also note that I no longer DJ this particular style or genre of music - this was a one-off set! :)

Electro-Swing is a fusion of electronic dance music and 1920s, 1930's & 1940s Jazz and Big Band styles with genres such as House & Electro music, made popular by artists such as Parov Stelar

The Mix also includes some tracks from the new 'Balkan' style house music that uses samples from old Russian / Balkan records. Then at the end of the mix it goes off on a tangent to the 1960s :oD 

Recorded Live on two Pioneer CDJs, at my DJ residency for Distil, Lebua, an exclusive 5 Star hotel lounge bar in Bangkok Thailand. The hotel was recently used in a shoot for 'The Hangover Part 2' Movie.

The “Layers EP” is the first Bastard Jazz release from Milan based producer Parker Madicine. A fanatic record collector and key player of the musical politics in the northern Italian City, Parker also runs his own fledgling label CT-HI and has released music on a variety of labels over the years under a number of aliases, including 20:20 Vision, Trapez, and Carl Craig’s Planet E imprint.

The Layers EP is a love letter to mid 1980’s dance music production with a modern ear towards Detroit and the Future Beat production scene happening worldwide now. “Mazimuth” is a a bouncy four to the floor bubbler with analog bass squelches, sharp synth pads and scattered drums. “Carnival Into Space” brings an electronic jazz fusion vibe into it’s deep boogie atmosphere, while “Song Of Life” sounds like an early Prefuse73 song lost in a world of analog modulation. Remixes come from Vancouver’s Mosaic, a hip-hop producer known recently for his work with Dudley Perkins and members of Wu-Tang, who gives “Mazimuth” a Dilla inspired swagger with deep, swirling synths and big bass, while prolific Australian producer Inkswel (BBE Records) takes “Carnival Into Space” into big 1980’s remix territory with his analog dub take on the song, sounding like a Chicken Lips banger that never was.

Soundboard maestros Lord Echo and DJ Day link up across oceans to trade remix duties on each other's top tunes, flipping the pair onto a heavily dubbed out Double A-side single pressed up on frothing white vinyl.

California dance-floor champ DJ Day gives Echo's iconic "Bohemian Idol" a 1980s drum machine reggae vibe and lets the delay run wild, while New Zealand's analog maverick Lord Echo transforms Day's "Land of a Thousand Chances" into a live disco dub studio jam session.

Driven by a love of polyrhythms, producer/designer Paul Chin (@ohyeahpaulchin) has fine-tuned his vulnerable approach to storytelling through beats, vividly illustrated across the electronic landscape of his new EP Dancing Drums. The young Toronto-based artist's classical and jazz training, combined with intricate attention to detail in his drum programming, has helped evolve his sound into a rich, reverberating blend of moodiness and texture.

The undulating Dancing Drums EP layers frenzied anthems like "War Drums" alongside chilled, expansive tracks such as "Home" and "Deep Jupiter", which is complemented by a penetrating remix by like-minded contemporary and rhythmic mastermind Shigeto. These instrumental explorations are wonderfully offset by the hymnic vocals of Gillian Mapp on "Shaman Chant", rounding out the undulating, timeless release.

Dancing Drums is out worldwide June 9 on 12-inch vinyl featuring artwork by Paul Chin.

"In a World of Wobble and Bass Honkey Phonk comes back with a straight Oldschool Funky Breaks Release at its best.
Jayl Funk presents the old Funk Flavor like you had in the golden BigBeat and Funky Breaks era. BigBeat at its best by Voodoocuts and the pumping funk sound by Morlack. Do your thing and be a Cool Monster! "

"Once again Honkey Phonk's label boss Jayl Funk takes a backseat to let his roster shine, this time on a split-single. First up in Berlin-dwelling Voodoocuts, with a pulsating slice of brass and bass duelling, classic funk. On the proverbial flip is Morlack with a killer 'Bootsy goes hip-hop' electro-boogie workout."
