Always Unknowing

Hopefully we don't have to tell you much about Bryan Ferry because we're going to go out on a BFG sized limb here and assume you know a little bit about the Roxy Music frontman and his long and storied career. It's Bryan Ferry. From Roxy Music. 

Bryan Ferry from Roxy Music's solo catalogue is stuffed to the gills with the kind of sultry and seductive sunset classics that smell like expensive cigarettes and even more expensive aftershave, tuxedo-friendly Balearic jams for the suaver man in your life, so we here at THUMP look up to him like he was a Hitch for Test Pressing Readers. 

When we heard that a new batch of Bryan Ferry remixes were about to wing their way into the world we splashed ourself with Joop and slipped into the suit we've not worn since we had a job interview at a grain and feed regulators nearly five years ago. Bryan, we thought, would appreciate that. 

While we never fond out if he cared or not we DID get our hands on the Avonmore remxies package, a 20 track strong selection of reworkings of cuts from the debonair mum-pleaser's 2014 album of the same name. Featuring the likes of Prins Thomas, PBR Streetgang, Leo Zero, Idjut Boys, and Ray Mang, it's a a seriously smooth set of dancefloor ready re-rubs. 

We're delighted to be bringing you the Man Power mix of "Midnight Train" right here on THUMP.

REASON OR RHYME (LIVE IN BERLIN 2011)

Roxy Music seemed to come out of nowhere. The bold self-titled debut album from 1972, a result of studio experimentation, seemed to defy categorization. Roxy’s extravagant fashion, curated with the help of art school friends, kept their audience ever curious about where they’d draw their cues from next. The record landed in the crates of record collections of an entire generation keen on eschewing flower power for punk-infused self-expression.

Liz Warner sat down with Bryan Ferry of Roxy Music just after a live performance with the Hollywood Bowl Orchestra in Los Angeles. This music-heavy feature takes a deep dive into early Roxy Music, and also into some of Ferry’s many influences leading up to that point through today.

A new 45th Anniversary Super Deluxe Edition of Roxy Music commemorates the recording. The collection contains a book, CDs with demos, outtakes and BBC radio sessions, and a DVD of live performances from the time.

THE DOORS - The End (Riva Starr Re-Trip)

http://news.beatport.com/blog/2010/11/16/remix-bryan-ferry/

This is the winning remix of Beatport's Shameless competition.
Bryan Ferry made the individual stems of 'Shameless' available to download in late 2010. A few months later over 1000 remixes had been submitted so Beatport and Ferry's team starting filtering-out the good from bad.

Eventually a shortlist of 10 un-named files were played to Ferry, and he chose this one as the winner.

It turns out that the mix was done by an established producer with an impressive production history. http://www.frankdewulf.com/#!about-me/cjg9
