Warthog - Exterminate Me

FKR078
Bruce Ditmas
Yellow Dust
LP/Digital

As an artist whose name has become mutually synonymous with the instrument he plays Bruce Ditmas is a very unique heavy musician from one of those special tightknit communities that tried (and almost succeeded) to change the facade of progressive pop music and jazz via musical technology.

Raised in Miami (an unknown incubator for future synthesists) Bruce carved the image of a teen prodigy playing jazz drums at the most exclusive Miami Beach hotels. After being whisked off to New York by none other that July Garland he became immersed in free music, recording compositions by Annette Peacock and Carla Bley before setting up house with vocal artist Joan La Barbara (later Mrs. Morton Subotnick) in 1975, who, via her own label, encouraged Bruce to pursue his very specific experiments in heavy electronic rhythms.

This LP is compiled from the solo Moog Drum compositions from his only two albums both released in 1977 using a Mini-Moog (donated by Gil “Hendrix” Evans), an Arp 2600 and a wide range of treated percussive instruments that littered this enfant terrible’s bedroom floor throughout the 1970s. A later pillar of the Enja and ECM community, Bruces later work in TV, film, sound sculpture and free music still renders truly unique recording to this very day.

Meet your new favourite drummer, and the best Moog Drum record in your whole collection.

Bruce Ditmas - L'Unita

This time our hungry wax detectives return to one of their most familiar feeding grounds and spotlight some of their favourite freak funk , cosmic concept LPs and Parisian prog from Gallic magnetic pastures and beyond with this French vinyl special. Our Keepers Cottage residents Andy Votel, Pete Mitchell and Doug Shipton are graced with sporadic visits from Silver Globalist Jane Weaver, Lee Janda and the tapeworm and are also joined by ex-Stereolab legend Laetitia Sadier and her band to discuss the recurring themes of madness in French pop and try and work out the meaning the mysterious post-68 No-No movement. With regular magazine features, tedious in-jokes, prizeless competitions, Olympic standard mispronunciations and music that you're unlikely to hear anywhere else, part deux of our ongoing cross continental pop pilgrimage is now online to electrify your camembert and fry your cabbage heads. 

Finders Keepers Radio Show Episode Two

With the wake of a new season the third episode of Finders Keepers monthly radio magazine returns to your devices ushering musical lost property, foreign fuzz and multiple micro-genres via our regular cosmic conduits at the radio chronic workshop known only as the Keepers Cottage. This month’s episode is punctuated by the concept “Jazz Is Not A Four Letter Word” - a ten-year-old title that was original earmarked for part of a series of releases on Doug and Andy's hibernating Delay 68 label. Alongside other quadratic genres folk, prog and glam, jazz was once a misunderstood section known to polarise tastes like marmite and mustard sushi burgers but as many hapless vinyl junkies will testify the j word forms the backbone to some of the best record collections in the world and it obviously doesn't take a bunch of Saxonic nerds from Blighty (such as our guest Graham Massey from Biting Tongues/808 State) to fight its corner... but let's do it anyway. Expect some of the finest skronk platters from all corners of the globe in this months Jazz themed episode including free/spiritual/cosmic/improv/electronic and other permutations of the joyful noise with various random bursts of unrelated vinyl bliss in the mix courtesy of Votel, Shipton. Mitchell, Ozploitation purveyor James Pianta and not forgetting our favourite ferric oligochaeta Mr. Tapeworm. The jazz amnesty is in session; Iguarglaphones must be left at the door.

Finders Keepers Radio Show Episode Three

With general election fever looming over our tiny island this month, the members of the B-Music assembly retreat to the Keepers Cottage to grunt, snarl, manipulate the truth, talk over the top of each other and make creative promises they cannot keep. Welcome to Arty Political Broadcasts.  This month The Finders Keepers Radio Show looks at art school pop in all its guises - from DIY punk to flamboyant rock excursions; from punk poetry to opinionated pop via agit new wave, visiting theatre, sleeve art  and a whole host of global artistic pop funk gestures along the way. Gathered for this one-off special message stalwarts Votel, Shipton, Mitchell do there utmost best to cram too many opinions into one space and overwhelm the listener in true parliamentary style joined throughout the show by original B-Music honcho, writer and closet situationist obsessive John McCready.  Sporadic visits from extra special guests Graham Gouldman from 10cc, poetic spokesman John Cooper Clarke and Jane "Silver Globe" Weaver make this edition of our monthly mutant music magazine all the more enthralling while Graham Massey takes our reluctant mascot Tapeworm from the tip to the Toolshed and we keep the punkish paraphernalia rotating in vinyl and cassette form way beyond curfew. Consider this parliament hung(over)!

Finders Keepers Radio Show Episode Four

With it’s mad filthy basslines and swinging techy beats HI-LO is going to blow a lot of minds very soon. His killer bass house jam “Crank It Up” has only recently seen the light of the day, but is already being played by some heavyweights from different scenes like Diplo, Green Velvet, Oliver Heldens, Flux Pavilion, Tiesto, Umek, Tchami, Kaskade, DJ Snake & Knife Party to name a few. It seems the crowds are ready for some serious bassline madness, even though most of them might not be aware of this themselves… HI-LO is here to show them how it’s done, so prepare yourself to dance like a fool and rage like a maniac… the bass invasion is coming ;D

'Crank It Up' is out now on Beatport: http://btprt.dj/1LrokEa

HI-LO - Crank It Up [OUT NOW]

Let's cut to the chase for once... This month’s Finders Keepers Radio Show features GEORGE CLINTON and DENNIS COFFEY in person!!!!    If you feel the need to read any further, on our fifth edition we ask Dr. Funkenstein himself about his favourite horror films and quiz him on the first Afro-American occult LP!  Then we get "the white Jimi Hendrix" to tell us about the more obscure Sussex artists like Paul Parrish and Priscilla Coolidge while discussing his cassette only rap collection and dropping some heavyweight Coffey-breaks in between. Add a sprinkle of overused sound-effects, some O-Level amateur dramatics, tenuous micro-genres and a world record Rotary Connection namedrop count your faithful presenters Andy Votel, Pete Mitchell and Doug Shipton put a lively cast of characters in a big purple box and tie a paisley bow around it with a card that reads PSYCHEDELIC SOUL. 

These days the indulgent funk records that many of the Finders Keepers crew bought as teenagers are collectively worthy of their own record shop divider and with the help of childhood buddies like Mark "Boney Votel" Rathbone (and Preston soul fiend Stan), cosmic PSSW Jane Weaver, Invisible Spy Benjamin and 808 statesman Graham Massey we lay down a fine blend of obscure, obsessive, obsolete, oblivious and plain obvious spooked-out soul jams and fuzzy funk from around the globe (but mostly from the wild west). So gather round the bearskin rug for all this and much much less without a protective inner sleeve or a bottle of isopropylene in sight. The funky worm has turned... on!

Finders Keepers Radio Show Episode Five

And The Sun Also Rises!  As holiday season starts to distract us and it’s no longer safe to leave record bags in the hot boot, the residents of The Keepers Cottage decide to take a sonic vacation in this bonus edition of The Finders Keepers Radio Show with episode NUMBER SIX (cue Ron Grainer). What better numeric than the smallest positive integer to celebrate our love for all things related to The Prisoner/Portmeirion and the inimitable Festival No 6 at which Finders Keepers continue to play an integral role. Two short months in advance of our mass exodus to this North Wales nirvana our regular hosts Andy Votel, Pete Mitchell and Doug Shipton reveal line-ups for our three daily stages at the September 3rd-6th long weekender and play a varied crate of multilingual records spanning old and new prior to their festival live performances. Combining cosmic pop, pocket punk, foreign fuzz and soundtrack psych, this episode boasts exclusive debuts of brand new tracks by Gruff Rhys and David Holmes both of whom will play key roles in the Speedlearn Separado (Welsh-Patagonian) film tent followed by two days of live music from Finders Keepers and Bird Records (on the original location of Patrick McGoohan's unrivalled 60's TV location!). Joined in the studio by Electric Mountaineer Jane Weaver and Andy "T.R.A.S.E." Popplewell (1980s teenage synth surgeon) what better place to encapsulate all this sneak preview material than our regular radiophonic fuzz fanzine and what better time for the uninitiated to discover both www.findersKeepersRecords.com and www.festivalnumber6.com as your new favourite purveyors of earworms, eye candy and "ultimate cakes & treats" just in time for the warping season.  As they say in Porthmadog's favourite communist ex-fed retirement village... "Be seeing you" xxxxxx

Adventures With Paul White - Stones Throw Podcast 62

"In a time when techno and abstract music is sounding repetitive, Metasplice continue to utilize unconventional sounds and arrangements. "Decant", being the more floor oriented track, combines groovy bits that turn into splashing immense noises and harmonies. "Churn" opens with a barrage of beautifully crafted harmonic sequences, then relentlessly descends into a sublime world. Both tracks are spectacular floating grooves that immerse the listener in the group's unique and intense headspace."
