I like this. The song at this point is "These Days" by Nico (possibly the El Poeta Version: https://soundcloud.com/el-poeta/these-days-version).

Exclusive remix of "Monkey Bee," from "Monkey: Journey to the West," now playing at Lincoln Center. Available for download only through July 28.

Great directors create their own genre and Wes Anderson movies are a genre unto themselves. His films are played out in linear motion, his actors moving like costumed dolls in a vast toy house. It's as much theatre as film. Here are Anderson’s movies remixed like a cross section of a doll’s house - the themes and styles blended and mashed together by Eclectic Method. This continues Barcelona-based EM’s series of director mix tapes which started with Tarantino and Almodovar. The result is fun, silly and, like Wes himself, quirky.

Jane Weaver - The Silver Globe (019EGGS)

Electric Dream Weaver.

Like all good parables Jane Weaver's sixth solo album, a concept album called The Silver Globe, is as multifaceted as it is beguiling.  Part coming of age/part cautionary tale and part romantic peon, this twelve track synth ridden post-apoc prog-pop opus is based on tightly embroidered, non-linear recurring themes and inspired by esoteric stories, cosmic imagery and re-filtered past experiences. Written from the optimistic vantage of a long-standing female independent artist, in an desperately evolving industry, Jane's latest set of self penned pop abstractions combine mechanical rock/recycled European cinema/empyrean vocalisations and an arsenal of rescued vintage synths to create a futurist narrative backdrop of a allegorical post apocalyptic landscape.

Assembled from disparate studio sessions recorded sporadically since the release of the critically acclaimed Fallen By Watchbird LP, The Silver Globe explores new collaborative relationships featuring  tracks co-produced by David Holmes, guest appearances by Australian vintage space rockers Cybotron, a recycled chunk of an 80s Hawkwind track, an intricate Damon Gough guitar solo, some Suzanne Ciani waves and post production/remix flourishes by Andy Votel. Enjoying her most fertile period to date Jane's reactions to the music of Italian synth starrs Daniela Casa and Doris Norton with local DIY artists like Una Baine's The Fates (released on her own Bird imprint) provide yet another launch pad for Jane's latest musical trajectories.
 
Paying homage in title to the troublesome Andrzej "Possession" Zulawski film of the same title, and combining influences from a wide range of lost-pop and cinematic obscurities Jane's new album uses the motif of a distant mythical impenetrable silver planet which eventually reveals itself to be a simple reflection of the beholders own souls.  Loosely metaphorical in its content The Silver Globe witnesses Jane's commitment to self-pressed conceptual pop music reach its next logical progression without compromising her natural skills as a talented melodic songwriter preserving pop vaudeville over prepacked vacuity.

Jane Weaver - The Electric Mountain

Copper Moon Melody

From the album ‘Noctunes’ (2015) • Pay what you want http://tndr.lv/willisbeal

Principalities of man got you down in the mud
You’re a single grain of sand so you can’t stand out
Misery on every corner looking for handouts
You got peoples steady yelling you don’t know what about
Just turn your eyes to the sky and remove all doubt
If you wanna survive 
If you wanna survive
Cause they’ll eat you alive
They’ll eat you alive
In your heart you feel you’re right but they tell you you’re wrong
The melody you orchestrate don’t go with the song
You’re only waiting in vain don’t make a difference how long
They tell you get off the stage but you can’t hear the call
So stop beating your chest and acting like King Kong
If you wanna survive
If you wanna survive
Cause they’ll eat you alive
Cause they’ll eat you alive

If you want to survive
You got to let it go
If you want to survive
You got to let it go
If you want to survive
Let it go
If you wanna survive
If you want to survive


Willis Earl Beal has yet to be born. Critics and publicists defined him before he’d had a chance to define himself. Their expectations were inextricably linked with race and gender, two concepts Beal thoroughly rejects. Now, two extremely productive years removed from the spotlight, Beal doesn’t feel pressure to define himself against anything. His new music is shockingly original, utterly confident, and as ephemeral as Beal himself. He levitates above definition, concerned only with self-discovery and truth-seeking. “I know it sounds falsely altruistic,” he says. “But I think a simple voice like mine can serve as an example of some kind of freedom.”

Hot Chip - Huarache Lights (AJE's Huarache Flights Remix)

01 - Dzihan & Kamien - Smile

04 How We Be (Peaking Lights Dub Mix)

This unique band (pronounced: oh-wee-nee si-go-mah) is made up of 3 Londoners: 
brothers Louis and Jesse Hackett, and their school friend Tom Skinner and 2 gentleman from Kenya, Joseph Nyamungu and Charles Owoko, both masters of traditional Luo instruments, the Nyatiti and the Nyidoungue Drums respectively. 

The 28th of August will bring the release of their 3rd album ’Nyanza’, for which the group were invited to the Nyanza Province of Western Kenya, the Birthplace of Luo music, and homeland of Joseph and Charles, to record and craft the record closely with the roots of Owiny. 

The creative process of the Owiny Sigoma Band in the past has been crucially intwined by localities, memories and stories, as well as an element of spontaneity from their jam sessions. ‘I Made You / You Made Me’ sung by Jesse is a track inspired by the birth of his daughter. Stirred by hearing “purely happy” African popular music on the radio and taking early morning walks with gospel emanating from the churches Jesse challenged himself to write a joyous pop song.  This track beautifully reflects the ambience and energy of the environments in which it was made, and as well as Owiny Sigoma Band’s raw and organic collaborative process.

I Made You  You Made Me - Owiny Sigoma Band

Available from https://www.mrbongo.com/products/ebo-taylor-and-the-pelikans-vinyl-lp-1

For this album, Ebo joined forces with 12-piece band ‘The Pelikans’ — from the Cape Coast region of Ghana — led by Bessa Simmona, with rhythm guitarist Fifi Orleans Lindsay. A genuine ‘holy-grail’ of Ghanaian music and one of Ebo’s most saught-after.

The album was released on the small Abookyi label. Named after a nightclub they played in called PELIKANS, and sung in English and Fante, this was the first album where Ebo sang on tracks, such as the classic ‘Come Along’, on which he also plays keyboard. This song clearly defined a new direction in highlife and has become a Ghanaian funk anthem. ‘Come Along’ formed the basis of Sadat X’s ‘Remember That’ hip hop jam from 2011.

This official Mr Bongo re-issue is packaged in our new & improved heavyweight ‘tip-on’ sleeves; printed in Japan, pressed on high quality vinyl, audio restored to the best of our ability, with label designs and artwork as per the original release.
