This month Carhartt Radio features the music of Testiculo Y Uno, a fresh and unabashed producer duo from Germany. Testiculo Y Uno are Twit One and Hulk Hodn, two heartfelt dedicated producers right out of the centre of Cologne's sizzling contemporary Hip Hop scene. Hulk Hodn is also known as the DJ and beatmaker for one of Germany's most hailed Hip Hop acts Huss & Hodn, nowadays renamed into Retrogott & Hulk Hodn. Twit Uno is a man of many faces. He works at the famose Groove Attack record store, is one third of the men behind Radio Love Love, runs a DIY label, is part of Flatpocket, and works also together with the House producer Damiano von Erckert. For Carhartt Radio they mixed a one hour show full of dusty beats, exceptional samples, and lots of soulful vibes. All tracks been made by themselfs in their cosy homestudio, where time does not matter and only music calls the tune.

Pullin from the Stacks - More Jazz 45s!

I was late to the library game, and only own a short stack of these gems, but for folks unaware, some amazing studio musicians (especially in Europe) recorded some of the funkiest and weirdest music on "library" records, that were available to radio and tv producers to use on their shows or elsewhere. Recently I discovered that one of the iconic sound effects associated with the early days of Portland Trailblazers broadcasts that I used to hear all the time as a kid actually came from a 1970s KPM record. 

No tracklist on this one! Dig in.

Pullin from the Stacks - The Road Forward (Library Selections)

Been a couple weeks - I had to replace my old desktop that was starting to crash too frequently and move all the music files etc to the new machine. Back up now with an episode I recorded a week or so ago! Just a few longer tracks from recent records found and purchased. Hope to be back on schedule soon! Enjoy.

Tracklist: Keifer Trio, Pete Jolly, Chris Barber, Les DeMerle, Airmen of Note
