Cybereign - Star Fire [DC016] (Snippet)

DJ Offbeat, Chris Galvan, and OdDio end the decade by taking a look back at some of the Labels and Artists that have influenced us, inspired us, and led us to where we are today.

We examined Compost Records, Jazzanova, Schema Records, 4 Hero, and Especial Records in December.  We started the year off right with a look at Scandinavian Jazz.  This week we turn our attention to Italian jazz maestro Nicola Conte.

The swinging jazz sounds of Nicola Conte first entered my world in the form of the Schema Records album 'Jet Sounds'.  A modern take on bossa, the groove based tunes flowed one after another until the final notes of 'Trappola Mortale' faded into silence.  I ached for more and immediately began the journey again.  The audience widened a bit in America with the Eighteenth Street Lounge re-release, renamed 'Bossa Per Due' and a full remix album aptly titled 'Jet Sounds Revisited'.  

The remixes flowed, as did my love of these dancefloor jazz sounds.  Taking a more pure jazz tone, Nicola Conte and his band recorded 'Other Directions' in 2004 for Blue Note.  Conte returned to his home at Schema Records with 2008's 'Rituals'.  Late in 2009, Schema released a double album of collected remixes from over the years under the name 'The Modern Sound of Nicola Conte: Versions In Jazz Dub' and the journey continues.

I was fortunate enough to catch a DJ set at Sonotheque in Chicago in late 2003, where I enjoyed the fine selections of Mr Conte, as well as an excellent conversation and more than a few drinks with the man himself.  Chris and his lovely wife came for a visit late last year and we all took in the live band, featuring Nicola on guitar and the one Jose James on vocals.  Needless to say, they brought the house down.  

Fond memories all around!  We hope you enjoy a small sampling of the ever growing body of work Nicola Conte has blessed us with thus far and look forward to what the future may bring.  Also, be sure to check out the Schema  Records Special if you missed it.

Much love, respect, and thanks to Nicola Conte and the good people at Schema Records, as well as all of the talented labels and artists featured in this show.

DJ Offbeat, Chris Galvan, and OdDio end the decade by taking a look back at some of the Labels and Artists that have influenced us, inspired us, and led us to where we are today.

We examined Compost Records, Jazzanova, Schema Records, 4 Hero, and Especial Records in December. We started the year off right with a look at Scandinavian Jazz and Nicola Conte. This week we focus on Gerardo Frisina.

Gerardo Frisina is a vital piece of the Ishtar equation. His deep knowledge of jazz has been key in the creation and success of Ishtar, which houses most notably the Schema and Rearward labels. He began as a producer for artists involved with Ishtar and quickly moved into production of his own records. This began with the release of Ad Lib in 2001 and has since brought us Hi Note and The Latin Kick. Along the way, he has managed to ring up an impressive catalog of remixes of modern jazz tunes, as well as an incredible selection of classic artists including the likes of Horace Silver, Freddie Hubbard, Dizzy Gillespie, and more.

Gerardo continues to DJ worldwide, always moving forward with his fusion of modern sounds, brazilian, and latin jazz. You can dig deeper at www.Ishtar.it and www.myspace.com/gerardofrisina

Scorching EP from Dead Channel alum and acid master, TLXCO.

Stripped down, but dense and tense, this 4-tracker is filled with huge delayed 303s, booming gained-out drums, and desolate atmospherics. Literally translated as 'Every Day Towards Death', this bleak acid masterpiece brings you one step closer.

[PSMDUB004] Rosie From The Block - Believe In It (Remixes) EP

Hot on the heels of her debut outing - ‘Believe In It’ EP - on Phuture Shock Musik, Rosie From The Block returns to the Bristol label with a fully reimagined version of the 2022 release; featuring remixes by a batch of stellar talent from the PSM family - including house heavyweights Trinidadian Deep and Sean McCabe, along with nu-skool bruk soldiers Szajna and Sentinel 793. 

Already known for her work on the live soul and jazz circuit, Brussels-based producer, singer-songwriter and musician, Roselien, has made waves in the last year via her alter ego Rosie From The Block. Having gained wide-ranging DJ support in the broken beat scene and beyond with two successive EP’s, playing a string of debut UK gigs as a DJ, and racking up several guest mixes for radio shows and media platforms such as Kiosk Radio and Music Is My Sanctuary, the ‘Believe In It’ Remix EP continues the artist’s rise and foray into the world of dance music. 

Taking the helm with the title cut ‘Believe In It’ is NYC’s Trinidadian Deep, who puts his signature afro-deep stamp on the track; bathing Rosie’s vocals in a deep sea of celestial melodies and sweeping pads, with lively percussive rhythms thus transforming it into a tribal roller with an uplifting message of self-belief. Next up is Manchester producer Szajna with his flip of ‘Let The Drum’, here taking a less is more approach by stripping the track down to a minimal groove of off-kilter drums and squelchy bass, whilst throwing in snips of the original vocal hook, intertwined with silky keyboard stabs to make for an understated bruk-hop bop.  Delivering an epic revamp of ‘Same Road Back Home’ on the full B-Side is Bristol’s very own Sean McCabe, who retains the late-night melancholy of the original, while adding emotive chords and dazzling synth solos, paired with a warm, bouncy Moog b-line, and steady 4/4 drum track that together recalls the luscious mid-tempo grooves of Naked Music during its prime. Wrapping up the package nicely is fellow Bristol producer Sentinel 793’s take on ‘Believe In It’. Stepping away from familiar bruk territory, he morphs the track into a leftfield bass rattler; where Rosie’s vox drift into oblivion, and collides with a tapestry of warped 90s-inspired pads, punchy kicks and glitchy, industrial-esque percussion.
