Monday Again...

'Strings of Light'

neo-soul

I've been so slacking off. My bad. The demands of life sometimes. I've been holding so much music, that I'm going to offload two at a time throughout the month of June. By the way, today's my birthday, and I want to share some of this day giving the gift of music to yinz guys!

So...let's see...totally loving @niaandrews at the moment. And I can't wait to mix a set with Better By Your Side (@thisisaeble) and Get Lucky. Oh Yeah...It's coming!! And then, there are sounds produced by the folks you do know, like; @beatsbyesta, @fullcrate and @jarreauvandal. Overall, too many great artists/songs to call out. Just hit play!

You know the drill. Shuffle the list. Check out these artists. Enjoy the music! As always, No Turns! We're movin' forward! Welcome to the Future (WTTF).

One more thing. A little verse, crafted with some of the track titles (ALL CAPS)in this mix. And getting all the way silly with it:

so DON'T TALK THE TALK
CAN'T KEEP MY HANDS OFF...

your HOT BODY WOMAN
let me stop, we got SOMETHING

cause this love is ALL I NEED
elevating me above it all, 23

DREAMING of you in MYRIDE
i'm BETTER BY YOUR SIDE

Mndsgn - Use Ya Mnd (Twentyfourseven)

Belt up for a mind-altering journey through time and space stopping by Japanese enka, 8-bit psychedelica and mutated digi dub on this genre-defying long player from King Midas Sound’s Kiki Hitomi and Jahtari bossman disrupt.

Set against an intergalactic backdrop of riddims and soundscapes “Karma No Kusari” (“Chain Of Karma”) unfolds piece by piece, with Kiki’s otherworldly tone of voice providing a ghostly atmosphere that is at times unsettling but always achingly beautiful.

This gritty disc of cosmic vintage pop – entirely done without a computer – includes compositions by Maffi, the mysterious Tapes plus a transmission from the immortal Space Ape. With stunning artwork by Kiki herself “Karma No Kusari” is indispensible for any true space cadet.

Strictly limited pressing – outer-space black vinyl edition!

Pre-order 'The Imperfect Sea' on Vinyl, CD and DL here: http://phonofile.link/the-imperfect-sea

The iconic Penguin Cafe join the Erased Tapes family and open a brand new chapter to their unique world with new album The Imperfect Sea – out on Erased Tapes 5th May 2017.

A penguin stands in the middle of a scorching desert, far away from its natural habitat. This mirrors composer Arthur Jeffes’ journey and exploration into a new musical territory. Penguin Cafe have evolved into something of their own at the hands of Arthur who started the band in 2009 with the continuation and homage to his father’s legacy, to the late Simon Jeffes’ Penguin Cafe Orchestra. Now, their upcoming album echoes reminiscent sounds that embrace the new.

The album title refers to a saying by his father that “we wade in a sea of imperfections…”, reflecting upon the idea that beauty can be found amongst the chaos. “If there is a narrative to the album it’s coming to the acceptance of the imperfections in all aspects of life; moreover, the recognition that these imperfections and tiny randomnesses are in fact what make up the best parts”, Arthur explains. This has also been highlighted by the striking cover artwork designed by FELD under the art direction of label founder Robert Raths, resembling a lone figure adapting to and accepting its surrounding environment.

Predominantly self-composed, the new album also features covers of electronic works by Simian Mobile Disco and Kraftwerk, along with a re-working of Simon's 'Now Nothing'. Arthur has developed from the traditional folk and jazz heritage Penguin Cafe Orchestra is known for into another realm of blissful ambience and dance music, recreated using strictly acoustic elements.

“For this album I wanted to effect a departure from where we’d been up to now. The idea was to create a musical world that would feel familiar to an audience more used to dance records but stay true to our own values. So we replaced electronic layers with real instruments: pads with real string sections, synths with heavily-effected pianos, and atmospheric analogue drones with real feedback loops ringing through a stone and a piano soundboard.”

On the day of release, the band will play a headline show at New York’s Le Poisson Rouge, commencing the beginning of this new adventure for Penguin Cafe.

Simbad is by no means a newcomer, and has built his infamous reputation with over a decades worth of releases. Besides his close affiliation with Brownswood Recordings, he’s had production credits on releases by Mala, Daymé Arocena and Robert Owens, and remixed the likes of Black Jazz Consortium, Quantic and Roy Ayers to name but a few.

For this release, Simbad once again proves his bold and versatile productions skills. Continuing where his previous solo releases left off, he returns to his roots to further his journey exploring house music in all its richness and diversity under his new moniker SMBD.

With references of classic techno, house, and broken beat, the end result is fresh and inspiring. ‘Message 045’ is just that, a comment on today’s world tinted with the sound of an uncertain, technological future and held together with innocent melodies, bubbling synths, rolling basslines and driving percussion. Shimmering pads and punching drums carry both ‘Ping Pong Love’ and ‘Backstreet’, ready for the dance floor. Title track ‘Message 045’ takes a beatless, contemplative approach; dreamy, euphoric instrumentation aided with dialogue that captures the essence of the release.

Newcomer World Air offers his charmingly unconventional approach to ‘Ping Pong Love’; a mesmerizing and inventive piece that takes the listener on a trip to a brave new sonic world. Watch this space for more World Air’s release soon...
