Here's an alternate Dub of the theme song from Flowering Inferno's 'Dog with a Rope'. Dubbing recorded live on the board during mixdown. 

Dog With a Rope (Dub)

Thought is was time to go back to a few songs and versions that never made it to record (and are not likely to either). This was the demo of what later became 'Politick Society' featuring my father on Banjo and myself on my mothers ragtag Melodeon.

This was a version of an Edmundo Arias song that we recorded with the Combo Barbaro in 2006 at the Heliocentrics studio in London. Can't remember this ever coming out.

More from the vaults...This was a sketch I recorded on reel to reel back in 2006. Unreleased & unfinished.

Jazz & Milk Breaks Compilation Vol. 2

El Boom

The Snip - El Boom

A short expedition into the much overlooked tipica cumbia sound of Panamá

The heartache, melancholy and joy in the Panamá Tipica sound is hard to match and like no other to experience. It comes from a rich background of regional musical traditions, carnival rivalry and hotbeds like the legendary 'Festival en Guarare'. As I understand it, Panamanian cumbia was first played on violin until the arrival of accordions on the Isthmus, most early acordeoneros were violinists first and foremost. This mixtape comprises of some of the best 45s from the Herrera and Los Santos provinces, from the mid 50s through to late 60s. Over the last few years I've had the good fortune to meet several of these wonderful artists. Featured here: Dorindo, Papi Brandao, Oswaldo,Fito Espina, Ulpiano, Ceferino and more... (photo compliments of Papi Brandao). Viva Panamá!

Mixtape: TIPICA Sound

This is a mix of folkloric and outer-regional music of Ethiopia, all 45s, records that I feel need to be heard. Less of breakbeats & wah wah and this time more of krar, claps, howling organs and trad melodies. For fans of previous mixes ‘Axum to Addis’ and ‘Addis Sheckla Explosion’.
