WiscoMike Pt. 2

Tigers Roar (Flying Mojito Bros Refrito)

The most prolific music maker in the UK (trust us, it’s a fact!) is back at Paper with another serious selection of chopped up & rearranged slices of dance music. Edits is such a yawn these days but when they’re done properly (and we mean properly) they come out sounding like this insanely good E.P.

Title track is a Summer infused drop of feel good house music with bags of soul & swag that will fit perfect into any warm up set & will guarantee back slaps & big grins a plenty!

Bet It’s a Groove sounds like a lost track from an educational film of the late 70’s with bleeps & bloops straight out of a Moog. Bags of psychedelic flavours for the more whacky party settings (which we all love!)

P=funk flavours ahoy on Leroy. Full on synth workout with funky as heck guitars around some mayhem sounding synths & spaced out stabs. Imagine a breakdance party with added mushrooms and you’re half way there.

Things slow down for Shivery which is a real woozy number and harks back to sounds of Lemon Jelly at their most psych. Real nice one for all those lucky enough to hold a beachside residency in hotter climates though can sound equally as good at home whilst blazing a zoot or having a cup of tea.

Work It closes off the party and is a solid slab of ‘end of the night’ vibes with a nod to Sabres Of Paradise sounding loveliness. Throbbing bassline & arp action with various mad sounds all building & building towards the lights coming on. Great finish….see you next week!

Nutritious: "It's what the cool kids are playing. Weird & wonderful, indeed!"

Sally Rogers: "Tracks one and five are great! Very nice"

Leo Mas: "Nice Work SSS!"

40 Thieves: "Leroy is funky and loose!"

Rune Lindbæk: "Love it! Thumbs aloft!"

Too Slow To Disco are rallying to raise funds for LA:
"We here at TSTD are heartbroken to see the destruction at the moment in L.A.
We know there is a lot of suffering all over the world, but turns out some of the musicians we love and work with are in the middle of the devastation and lost everything
So we decided to do a bandcamp only compilation where we also give 100% of the proceeds to MUSICARES. 
We are so glad and proud, how many of our TSTD musicians/producers jumped on board immediately.


Bandcamp:
"On Friday, February 7th Bandcamp will donate 100% of our share of sales to MusiCares to support those musicians affected by the recent Southern California wildfires. Our thoughts are with everyone impacted by the recent disaster.“ - Marcus Liesenfeld (Too Slow To Disco)

Follow the "buy" link and help raise money for all those unfortunate people who're dealing with the crisis of a lifetime.

Nothing Going On FREE D/L

A vibrant kaleidoscope of sound, colour and emotion, British multi-hyphenate James Alexander Bright’s songs soundtrack fertile daydreams, esoteric dancefloors, languorous reflection, and wild excursions in nature and beyond. His voice, pitched somewhere between Eddie Chacon, Beck and Michael McDonald, is an immediately recognisable signature while impressive multi-instrumentalism sees him perform on guitar, keys, programming, percussion, production and myriad quirky effects.

The past six years has seen James release a veritable treasure trove of music: ‘Mallorca’ and ‘Strange Folk’ EPs, debut album ‘Headroom’, joyous second ‘Float’, an album of collaborations and reworks with cosmic Americana-disco DJ/producer duo Flying Mojito Bros, and a new project with Groove Armada’s Tom Findlay as Bright & Findlay. 

James’ music making is commonly a family affair. Although initially written and recorded at his home studio in the rolling hills of the Hampshire countryside, his tracks involve regular collaborator Peter Lyons in East London alongside old friends and new to contribute vocals (Kerry Leatham and Katharine Alice) and drums (Gillan McLaughlin and Joris Feiertag). He has also collaborated with Letherette, Daudi Matsiko, Fink, Fred Everything, Scrimshire and contributed three songs to Groove Armada’s ‘Edge Of The Horizon’ album 

James balances music alongside the creative duality of a job in illustration and the responsibilities and constraints that come with raising a young family. Utilising any spare moment to write and record new ideas, his creative output under various projects had been relentless. Turning his back on apathetic major label offers in his early 20s, he’s released through cult DIY label Tape Club Records, German stalwart !K7 Music and now with Scottish tastemaker Athens Of The North, presenting an evolving vision of a sound that has touched on everything from outsider art-rock to machine funk, mystic folk to experimental jazz.

His music has been played across BBC Radio, Amazing Radio, Bandcamp Weekly, FIP Radio France, NTS, KCRW, Soho Radio, Triple J, and Worldwide FM.
