Romantic Collection For WöD

Next up in our Record Club guest mix series is Wyndham Earl. A friend of Bongo and a much admired music producer, vinyl-fanatic, Time Spun Records head and proprietor of King Records in St.Leonards-on-Sea. Through his Time Spun Records imprint, he has produced and released a solo instrumental LP and 2 albums by Psych Rock group Rokurokubi; and in the past written music for Khruangbin. We are big fans of his 'Epoch' album, so much so we placed it ninth in our favourite albums of 2020. It's a psychedelic trip through dusty downbeats and cosmic compositions drawing on jazz, folk, hip hop beats, prog, library music vibes, and more. A fantastic album throughout and essential stuff!!! Also, check out Wyndham Earl's remix of Wax Machine on the Mr Bongo Record Club Vol.4 compilation.

Wyndham Earl's fascination with 60s-70s library music has brought about this new mix focussing on psychedelic rock sounds found within old Library records: Dropping Acid in the Library. Digging deep into a vast collection, it's an impeccably mixed set of tracks, all taken from original vinyl LP's from labels such-as the powerhouses of KPM, Conroy Music, Music De Wolfe as well as some more obscure labels from around the globe. Part 1 is 30 minutes of music, parts 2 and 3 to follow soon.

Huge thanks to Wyndham Earl for the mix, and keep your eyes out for the follow up to 'Epoch' that is underway.

NYD SONIC TREASURES
Here's some worms from Kris:  Now a much-anticipated new year’s tradition, Nina Walsh’s fourth annual Sonic Treasures mix might be expected to celebrate hard-won triumphs such as finally releasing Phonox Nights, the final album she recorded with lifelong creative partner Andrew Weatherall, which hung precariously in the ether as 2023 dawned. Now with that mission accomplished, and after this stunningly evocative new mix blasts off with two previously unheard Phonox Nights sizzlers that didn’t fit on the album, Nina unveils All That Bluster, the long-awaited Nina and the Fireflies album that will be her next major release in 2024. Partly comprising her lost soundtrack to Killing Eve, the album’s supernatural psych-folk gumbo emerges as a companion set to Phonox Nights, simultaneously recorded with guitarist Franck Alba at Facility4 and coming with four remixes that were among the last completed by Mr Weatherall before he passed away nearly four years ago. This highly personal odyssey climaxes with three unreleased gems from the bulging Walsh-Weatherall vault, starting with legendary 20-minute epic ‘The Acid Trip’ built around Andrew’s hilariously vivid account of his first LSD experience, captured at rehearsals in 2016. Once again, Nina has gloriously pulled off highlighting past achievements with both eyes set firmly on the future. Happy new year!

Rock Steadily #2 :: I’m In The Mood For Love

Phil Passera, the DJ and producer behind the Payfone output on Golf Channel has put together a timely summer selection this week. Phil tells us the mix is 100% vinyl and consists only of  Records he found in flea markets around Barcelona this Spring, and all music is from between 1977 and 1984. It's quite a ride. Londoner's should check out Payfone at Peckham Paradise, Canavans Pool Club, Peckham this Saturday from midnight onwards.

If you look up the word combination retro-futuristic-cosmic-space-synth-techno-disco, in the Encyclopedia Galactica (not available on earthbound amazon), you will find an audiovisual holographic representation of the legendary Italo Brutalo.
 Not convinced yet? Well, it all began a long time ago in a far away mind space, when the visionary musicians George Clinton, Bootsy Collins, Yellow Magic Orchestra and Giorgio Moroder met in a higher geometrical dimension during a lucid dreaming session. There, they improvisationally build a shrine that married a Farfisa organ, a Linndrum and an ARP Odyssey. The analog offspring of this cosmic union laid dormant in a rainbownized mothership cocoon, until it crackingly metamorphized, spreading its night club butterfly wings, enveloping the dance floors with pure loving 80’s synth and beat coolness in 2012 a la Italo Brutalo.
 A true believer in the capability of analog synthesizers, Italo Brutalo gets his first EP Paradiso Analogico released on Mozzarella Recordings in 2013. This release took the picture of Italo disco, being produced in a smokey 80’s studio in southern Italy, with is a knackered mixer desk, some fat mono synths covered in dust, a crappy digital effect box and a pre-programmed drum machine that somebody detached from a Farfisa organ that just plays an endless disco beat blasting angry Italo disco from the basement, to a cleaner perfectionist soundscape of the 21st century.
       Keeping his originality, Italo Brutalo releases the EP Systeria on the label Days of being wild in 2014 and the EP Spydor on Nein Records in 2015. By then, he has already done lots of well-hyped remixes for artists such as Kris Menace, Justin Faust, Moonbootica, Auxiliary tha Masterfader, James Rod, etc.
       With a turntable and synthesizer setup like few, Italo Brutalo performs world wide and has paid tribute to his Italo cause on dance floors and festivals, like Zoo Project in Ibiza, Wilde Renate in Berlin, Le Sucre in Lyon and Replicant Knights in Barcelona to name a few.
       Not limiting his skills and passion for his style to remixes, edits, tracks and DJ gigs, Italo Brutalo has also delivered numerous podcast sets to broadcasters such as Berlin Boombox, Death by Repetition, Nu Disco Your Disco, The Robot Scientists and others.
       As always, Italo Brutalo will keep it real, high quality and will keep spreading his original old school synthesizer disco music vibe in the future by taking listeners, night clubs and festival motherships on a truly original voyage.
