If you want to throw a successful block party, you need to get the sound, the system and the beats just right!' Mo' Horizons have done exactly that with their new album. 'Mo' Horizons and the Banana Soundsystem' is about putting the groove in place, as entertaining and profound as possible: 'We were touring to such an extent that we were nearly going bananas,' Mo' Horizons creative mastermind Ralf Droesemeyer recollects the last few years. 'It was as much fun as it was a colourful trip exploring the music of the world.

Mo' Horizons - Banana Boogie feat. Conección Santiago

After the successful « Ye-ye » and « Le Hipe Hope » EPs, here comes the 3rd Tour Eiffel Records release.
On the A side, a fat jazz explosive reconstruction of the sweet  "Jazz A Gogo" tune, from one of the frenchiest 60's icon, Mademoiselle France Gall herself...
With this (now) classic Minimatic's touch, the little mademoiselle is overboosted with big jazz breaks, tight flutes solo, pop scats & hard swinging organs. Built for the bop dancefloor !

Blak and Blu

Numb

Tropical heavyweight and Bastard Jazz signing Captain Planet give his own unique take on the track. Taking all the essential elements of the original and re-working them into something entirely new, it’s a remix that does everything a remix should whilst remaining full of surprises. Lifting the characteristic vocals and guitars of its a-side counterpart and placing them against downtempo boogaloo percussion, a warm double bass b-line, quirky whistles and subtle organs, the track opens at a deceptively laid back pace. One of the Captain’s trademark breakdowns leads to a dramatic shift of pace introducing a punchy double time drum track that is drum & bass and boogaloo in equal parts. The result is a remix which compliments the original perfectly with an infectious blend of tradition and contemporary dancefloor sensibility. USA meets London via Latin America!

Funky-Housy-Jazzy-Groovy rhythm that explore some techno influences. 
This is a monster track. I gave birth to it and then evolved by itself, without control. 

PS: I edited the mix as some instruments (the guitar especially) were a bit too behind. So you can download again this new version.

Mount Kimbie - Home Recording

In honor of the first day of Summer.  I always liked Herb Alpert's version of Summertime and Mo Horizons did a nice job of sampling it for their track Bar Rumba.  So I put 'em both together.  Enjoy!

Summertime (Monk's Rumba Edit)

Wooden Boy (Part 3) is the first single from The Cactus Channel's sophomore album "Wooden Boy" out Sept 2 on HopeStreet Recordings on vinyl LP/CD/digital.

It’s soul music, baby, but not as we know it. The backbeat and the handclaps are still there and the horns still sound. The bass bumps, the organ screams and the guitars still twang, but the singer has left the room. Everything is shades of blue. This is soul music for the after hours. For the solitary dancers and the lonely hearts. The soundtrack to solitary headlights on a midnight highway. What to call it? Who cares. Can you dance to it? Just try not to. No one’s telling you to throw your hands up in the air, but no one would be surprised if you did. It’s dark here, so you can do your own thing.

Wooden Boy was recorded by The Cactus Channel -- a ten piece band from Melbourne, Australia -- all born in the 90s and raised on the internet. Yet somehow, this astonishing follow up to last year's rave-reviewed debut, Haptics, sounds like it could have been recorded in the 1970s, or possibly in the distant future. A timeless, placeless cinematic oddysey, Wooden Boy could have been an alternate soundtrack to Ghost Dog -- if Lalo Schifrin and the Meters were collaborating on the RZA's score. Or maybe Wooden Boy was what happened when Lars Von Trier got invited to direct an episode of Soul Train. What any of it may actually mean is left to the listener's imaginantion.

Funk aficionados will hear shades of New York on this record, echoes of El Michel’s taking on Wu Tang, the influence of Budos and Menehan et al. But this is the Generation Z version; both more tempestuous and more introverted. Recorded analog in the digital era, presented faceless in the celebrity era, inexplicably ambiguous in the soundbite era, is this the album the world needs right now? Undoubtedly yes. In a world where the NSA can read the text message that dumped you, what does a person need more than sad soul music from the future? Wooden Boy, baby Wooden Boy.

"[Wooden Boy (Part 3)] starts with great conversational gusto between the horns and guitars, but over the next three minutes detours into surf twang, well-oiled rhythmic breaks, ominous soundtrack-style cues and finally a reprisal of the lingering drag that kicks off the song."
