Stagedoor FM's 'Best of' series: March 2014

New sounds

The Hot Sh*t

Ibibio Sound Machine are set to release their debut LP through Soundway Records. Fronted by British / Nigerian vocalist Eno Williams, they combine elements of West African highlife, disco, post-punk & psychedelic electro soul. Preceded by the pulsating first single 'Let's Dance', ‘Ibibio Sound Machine’ will be released 17th March.

Folk stories, recounted to Eno by her family as a child in her mother's South-Eastern Nigerian Ibibio language form the creative lyrical fabric of the album. A large dose of electronic elements and an approach as influenced by London as much as by West Africa, give the vocals and guitar lines space to breath without being overwhelmed.

From the banging sub-bass of 'Lets Dance' to the spiritual, gospel-tinged notes of the album's opening track 'Voice of the Bird', the band have turned in a dynamic and, at times, beautiful take on modern afro-soul music.

The 8-piece live band made their official live debut at this year's Transmusicales in France and will be a name to look out for in 2014.

Jagwar Ma - Come Save Me (Flight Facilities Graceland Remix)

Ben Khan - Eden

I got the opportunity to officially remix this classic song to coincide with the release of a new Donny Hathaway box set. I was given the original multitrack master of the studio version (different from the live version)and it consisted of 8 different instrument and vocal tracks (as opposed to the more usual 24 tracks) 
When I take on a remix, my first goal is to make it work on a current dance floor. I like to stay very close to the originally recorded sound and In most case there's plenty to be reworked on the multitrack master to achieve this. 
This case proved a little different as there were few rhythm elements I could use to fit within current standards of club loudness levels. So I decided to take a slightly different approach, and add a new set of (acoustic) drums,  to bend the original Soul vibe a little towards Disco territory. 
This remix is exclusive to my soundcloud page and free to download as a 16bit WAV file

Lyrics:
Shame when the art is gone
won't buy a ticket to your next show
slave with your feathers on
is it worth it when the moneys gone?

I wont do it, I wont do it, I wont do it, too much to think about
I wont do it, I wont do it, I wont do it, too much to think about

tattoo your eyes to know you've lost again, you lost again
tattoo your eyes to know you've lost again, you lost again

slave not a chosen one
you fell in love with the golden sum
take like a cheap victim
I bet you deserve a bullet of cum

2.	Florian Kruse & Kevin Knapp – Home
3.	Florian Kruse & Kevin Knapp – The Block (Flashmob Underground Remix)


Since we like to bring people together and are always eager to hear new combinations of talent, we have the honor of witnessing Florian team up with another family member, Mr Kevin Knapp, of recent Hot Creations fame, who delights us again both with his freshly honed production skills and with his perfect voice in yet another couple club pleasers.
"The Block" is a heavy drum jacker, with a grooving bassline and deep overall vibe topped with a cool synth stab progression where Kevin gets on the mic with a combination of inspired rappin and speech stabs that turn a track into a whole trip experience. 

On a similar synth driven tip "Home" gets more of Mr Knapps rap licks and a very phat bubbly analog bass action for great effect. 
Florian and Kevin seemed to have struck a balance both as CO-Producers and as mates that is evident in their music productions.

To wrap up the package we brought Defected's established underground hit makers Flashmob from Italy for remix duties, and they truly delivered turning around "The Block" into a raw drum machine chicago inspired acidic track.

A killer release by some of the industries most respected names, can't be missed!

Kaskade - Live At Ultra Music Festival (Saturday March 16, 2013)

Single 'Bailar' ini merupakan aransemen lain dari lagu Tigapagi terdahulu berjudul 'Menari'.

Single berjudul 'Bailar' diproduseri oleh kami dan (@teslamanaf). Di divisi lirik, (@javierpaloh) sangat berkontribusi penuh dalam menterjemahkan lirik asli "Menari" yang berbahasa Indonesia ke dalam Bahasa Spanyol. (@kartikajahja) sengaja bernyanyi di keseluruhan lagu ini, karena karakter seorang Tika lah yang mampu merepresentasikan lagu 'Bailar' ini. Peran (@lafagreen) sebagai arranger begitu terasa dalam lagu 'Bailar' ini, sehingga lagu ini terasa sangat berbeda jauh dari versi lamanya. Penambahan instrumen trumpet yang dimainkan oleh (@brury_effendi) juga ditambahkan untuk menguatkan kesan 'kelelahan' dalam lagu ini

Kami mengucapkan berjuta terima kasih atas peran sertanya dalam kelahiran single kami 'Bailar'. Sudah barang pasti kami mengucapkan berjuta terima kasih pada para sahabat kami, yakni para pendengar yang rela menunggu. Ucapan terima kasih pemungkas kami kepada Tuhan Sang Maha Segala.

Moby on 'A Case For Shame':

“I had this idea to make a video for ‘A Case For Shame’ which actually ended up informing the entire visual scheme of Innocents. In the video, someone dies – maybe they killed themselves out of a sense of shame – and they enter this other world, populated by these ghost creatures wearing masks. They look scary, but they’re actually covering their face because they’re ashamed. When you see someone wearing a scary mask, the first thought is, “What’s going on? That’s intimidating.” But they’re actually hiding – it’s the most blatant act of concealing oneself. ‘A Case For Shame” is one of two songs I collaborated on with Cold Specks. She’s quite shy, and preferred to be left alone in the studio, so I’d hit ‘record,’ go have some tea, then come back in and press ‘stop.’”
