UPDATE: The winners of the DJ Shadow remix contest have been announced! I'm not one of them, but it was great to hear the ones that shadow picked. So glad Archive's Waltz version was in the ranks, played that on my KCRW show on Wednesday. I'm not bummed one bit, everyone who Shadow picked killed it in their own way, and since I only set out to make what I consider to be a beautiful song... I feel successful in that. BLESSYALL for voting, and all the kind words. Now that it's over I can give it away for free. Enjoy.

DJ SHADOW ft. LITTLE DRAGON - Scale It Back (Jeremy Sole Remix)

ARTIST: JOSEPH MALIK
TITLE: ‘TAKE A LEFT’ EP: LP Version/ Jo Wallace ‘North Street’ Remix/ ‘North Street’ Instrumental
RRR003 – RAMROCK RED RECORDS
RELEASE DATE: DIGITAL – July 20th 2018 / 7” VINYL – August 2018

Ramrock Red Records are so proud to present the first single release ‘Take A Left’ unleashed from internationally acclaimed vocalist/producer/DJ Joseph Malik’s forthcoming album, ‘Diverse Part 2’. Co-written and produced with Joseph’s long-term friend + DJ partner since the 80’s, Saleem Andrew McGroarty aka Sound Signals, ‘Take A Left’ is a stomping RnB monster of epic proportions that would be at home in a 1950’s juke joint from across the tracks to a present day shebeen in a dingy basement club. Drawing their inspiration from the darkest recesses of the musical repertoire of Dr. John, Muddy Waters, Allen Toussaint and a generation of blues artists who travelled alone with their guitars in a gunny sack along lonely back roads in the pale Delta moonlight, Joseph and Saleem, along with a stellar line up of Scottish musicians, have created something akin to musical redemption. Ramrock Red Records boss, Jo Wallace gives ‘Take A Left’ an additional remix by taking Joseph’s impromptu jam from the front porch of a wooden cabin, along an echoing corridor and into the confines of a compact Bayou studio….you will sense the darkness but surely see the light.

Joseph Malik has always had a great ear for finding artists to work with on his projects and on ‘Take a Left’, he has teamed up with Scotland’s finest soul brothers and sisters to provide the soul power to help him complete his mission to record the best in Soul, Jazz and Blues music. With Joseph on lead vocals, backing vocals are provided by Polish vocalist/ Malik Orchestra violinist, Dominika Czerniga, now based in the South Side of Edinburgh and renowned for her powerful vocal delivery with an impressive operatic range. Malik says of Australian jazz trombonist Chris Greive, ‘we would never dare sample a horn from a record when the world’s best lives just around the corner!’ and along with the harp man from Edinburgh’s premier blues band, ‘Black Diamond Express’ and musical enigma, Tom McClelland, they create a relentless melody that drives the track as they let the notes interweave, cemented by Kris Howden, one of the South Side’s soul brothers + a major player on Edinburgh’s live music scene, with his big, fat, nasty bass line. Recorded at Rusty’s Yard in Edinburgh’s Easter Road by ex-drummer & founding member of Edinburgh’s punk band ‘The Fire Engines’, Rusty Burn on the recording desk, and mixed down by Saleem Andrew McGroarty for Sound Signals at The Sound Still, Leith, the end result feels more like a session straight out of the Stax or Atlantic studios – ‘Take A Left’ will lead you straight onto the talced dance floor.

‘Yes, indeed now’ - Joseph Malik ain’t no false pretender now…..

Awesome private press modern soul/disco cut from Spaceark, not featured on any of their albums. Vocal and instrumental versions, cut loud.

‘Don’t Stop’ is another one of those private press treasures from a dynamic group of musicians seizing the moment and making magic at Sunset Sound studios in LA.

This 45 features soaring lead vocals of Dolly Way and was also released as 'Dolly Way & Space Ship Earth – Don't Stop’ on Color World – using the same catalogue number – in 1976, but this ‘Spaceark’ version is harder to find now.

A big, big record! We are very excited to release it.

This year, the legendary "High Priestess of Soul", Ms NINA SIMONE, would be 80 years old. A woman who changed the social and political fabric of America with her fearless songs, her yearning voice, and her raw, worn soul.

Perhaps what has always moved me about Nina's body of work is that her recordings, even her fame in itself, were all auxiliary - just a means to support her continuing education and aspirations of becoming a classical pianist. Her songs had their own meanings and subjects of course, but by reflecting on her life's work as a whole, you can plot the points between these songs like a constellation. They were rungs on the ladder of her ever-climbing journey. You can hear in each recording a completely pure reflection of how she was feeling - passionate, strong, devoted, frisky, suspicious, proud, or just downright tired.

THIS FRIDAY NIGHT, JULY 5TH 2013, Los Angeles gathers for a sure-to-be-epic evening of free music and revelry around this particularly authentic high priestess. Join us all at GRAND PERFORMANCES for "YOUNG, GIFTED, and NINA", featuring LA's deepest musical luminaries from the Jazz, Soul, Blues, Poetry and recording world as we come together for this majestic tribute.

This event is produced with unmatched dedication by JONATHAN RUDNICK, and the visionary music direction of DEXTER STORY,  the men behind last year's also epic "PEACE GO WITH YOU, GIL" tribute to Gil Scott-Heron. Yours truly will be opening the evening with an invocation DJ set, and speaking throughout the show.

AS A GESTURE TO CHRISTEN THIS MOMENTOUS OCCASION, I'VE AGREED TO MAKE MY REMIX OF NINA SIMONE'S "BE MY HUSBAND" A FREE DOWNLOAD FOR ALL TO HAVE. I HOPE YOU ENJOY AND SPREAD THE SOUNDS, SPREAD THE WORD, AND WE'LL SEE YOU FRIDAY NIGHT.

More dusty beats from beneath the flagstones, this one was made around Mishaps Happening era, never finished and never released.

Out from the Cellar #7

Forthcoming from L'Eclair, "Carousel", a modern funk instrumental blending minimal synth sequences with an unconventional post-punk groove, climaxing to maximum dancefloor impact.

"Carousel" is the latest single to be lifted from their fantastic "нощта" ("Noshtta") EP, set for release 22nd May on the ever on-point Les Disques Bongo Joe, capping a busy few months for the group. Recently the band opened up for The Cinematic Orchestra at the Brixton Academy, released a collaborative 7"single with fellow tropicalfuturists The Mauskovic Dance Band and performed a live session for KEXP while at Les Transmusicales Festival. 

Since their debut LP "Cruise Control" in 2017, the band has been shaping its own vision of instrumental music, drawing inspiration from the past and the future and fearlessly blending genres. Their 2018 sophomore album “Polymood” was a hi-fi-but-crunchy studio adventure with the well-known record engineer/wizard Jasper Geluk (Altin Gün, Mauskovic Dance Band) while "Sauropoda", released in 2019 on Bongo Joe, was more of a DIY attempt to recreate the band’s live percussion-heavy organic house jams.

MUDDY WATERS - Worried Mind (Jeremy Sole remix)

My plan was to not remix, but re-play the song in a full live setting, as if in 1975 Bowie recorded the original and then flew to Brooklyn (or even Jamaica) to cut another take with my players. Everything was recorded 100% analog to tape. All on equipment that was available before 1975. My approach was to take influence of the Jamaican musicians (and recording styles) of the mid-seventies, and their infatuation with American Soul music. If you dig it, that would be great. Knowing that BOWIE digs it, I’m over the moon.
