Jazz

'The Endless Tape Machine' - a monthly live radio show at Cashmere Radio curated by Magïc Müllï and Mad Lubi. Inspired by the analogue tape machines we used to push our first tapes back and forth many years ago.  

We explore music history from then to now, around the globe:
From occult sounds to the avant-garde, from exotic adventures to political statements, from cotton field blues of the 20s to acid house of the 90s. 
Each episode is dedicated to a theme, an artist, a country, a current, a label, a style, a word.... 

Come along on our musical trip, the never-ending tape machine,
never knowing where the next episode will take us.

In this label special, we are focussing on releases from the Jazz and Rhythm ‘n’ Blues label Cadet Records. A sub-label of the independent label Chess Records from Chicago. Founded in the 1950s, Chess Records set the trend for the development of Rhythm and Blues and Rock ‘n’ Roll and is still one of the most important Blues labels today. The success of the label and its sub-labels is due to the fact that they signed musicians and released records that were not the focus of the major labels. They thus offered the artists a space for free musical development. Among the main protagonists who have released on Cadet Records are Ahmad Jamal, James Moody, Dorothy Ashby, Ramsey Lewis, Rotary Connection and many others.

This version is without the spoken parts, just the music.

The Endless Tape Machine #36 - Three Years Birthday Show

"The piano chords at the beginning of the track sound familiar; the moment the memory begins to take shape, bizarre organ flashes shoot out of nowhere, completely off beat, shattering the concentration. (...) Suddenly, the whole thing escalates, spiralling completely out of control; echoes circle around the speakers, only to return to relative normality under tight bongo rhythms before a stubborn trombone takes over. And then it gets really interesting."

With this quote from Joe Gibbs in mind, we browsed through our dub archive and present you with the sound from legendary studios such as Black Ark, Dynamic Sounds, Wackie's House Of Music, ... and acclaimed producers Jo Jo Hookim, Jah Thomas, Augustus Pablo, Lee Perry, King Tubby and many more.

This version is without the spoken parts, just the music.

The Endless Tape Machine #37 - Bubble It Up On Dub

In this edition, we travel to Ghana, one of our favourite countries for African music. We focus on the 1970s, a very productive phase in the Ghanaian music scene, which at the time was hardly known outside Ghana. Unfortunately, the hopes of many artists for lucrative record deals from abroad were not fulfilled. The only exception is Hedzoleh Soundz, who released their debut album through their collaboration with Hugh Masekela on the American label Blue Thumb. Fortunately, many of these forgotten artists received the recognition they deserved in the wake of the Afro-Funk revival in the early 2000s.

Founded in 2003 by Matt Werth, we consider the New York independent label RVNG Int. with its sublabels Freedom To Spend and FRKWYS to be one of the most interesting contemporary music labels for experimental, avant-garde music – both contemporary and retrospective. With its keen sense for music and design, the label releases LPs for all the senses. In this show, we present a mix of current artists and releases. 

This version is without the spoken parts, just the music.
